Rihanna Rated R Album Flops? Rihanna New CD Underperforming – Controversies and major promotional tours are no longer synonymous of major record sales,because Rihanna’s “Rated R” album is failing.After all the interviews,the publicity,the name-brand producers, writers, and big budget music videos the Bajan singer is expected to sell a measly 200K in her first week.Her record is now on sale for 99 cents.Susan Boyle’s ‘I Dreamed a Dream’ is estimated to sell around 550,000 units and will be taking the top of the charts.

The CD is on point, everyone should be buying it. I don’t know why it isn’t selling. I’m baffled.
Truth be told if she was honest from the begining on what really happened instead of acting like she’s 100% the victim she would have sold more albums..does it make sense now all of sudden she’s coming out talking abt what happened jus when her album is abt 2 be released. Come on let’s not say let’s do..there’s a difference..
Ok say if she didn’t talked what would people be talking bout then. I’m sure everybody wants to hear the story who cares if’s she promoting the album we just wanna hear the story. And if you wanna say rihanna was just promoting the album, then chris was to because he can’t stand being away from the spotlight
Haha I don’t think honesty could have saved this album. It’s just not as banging as the last. She has a great pop voice for dancing this is slow and ok.. Instead of re-releasing that last album with new songs she should have saved them as singles for this album
I totally agree with your comment. I have asked myself the same question.
A lot of people wondered the same thing. It would’ve been a smarter move. Do some slow and some party hyped songs. I am more into happy songs, I mean the cd came out around the Holidays! I wouldn’t want to hear sad low stuff around this time of year. I do* like “Hard” though.
i cant believe u r on chris browns side.what if a man beat u like that.u prolly jus on chris brown side because u lik him..some of yall girls need to grow up and stop hatin becus rihanna look better than yall and becuz she had chris brown.IGNORANT LITTLE GIRL!!!! smh
r u kidding me?! I’m as grown as they come and I can’t believe the comment about women being ignorant little girls…the women speaking out arent taking chris brown’s side but merely being ADULTS and looking at the situation from both sides…he was DEAD WRONG..YES..but COMMON SENSE tells everyone that she had some fault in this whole situation as well..its funny how you say what if a man beat you blah..blah..blah..but you have no clue as to what went on in that car that night as neither do we..BOTTOM LINE women are defending the entire truth not being told not Chris Brown. GROWN folks already knew that though, LOL..OH yea and Rihanna looking better than those who posts?! Who’s acting childish now?! LMBO
@inshock, you may be grown (physically) but your brain is still the size of a pea. I don’t know rihanna but she could be my sister, I love her cause she is a strong black women, and she is using the talent God gave her to survive in this vindictive world. what dod you do other than tear down. truth be told cris brown should be in jail for what he did to her. I have many friends that were slapped by girls and they did not hit the girls back, that is what you call good upbringing. now blow away rubbish. phoosh
ok yes we know he or chris was wrong but that noway to say that he is every talened and we all know that he’s been punshed for that we all need to but this behind us
Eric, shut up… You took everything out of context. Nobody said anything about Rihanna lookin better… Grow up
Uhh No U Need To Grow Up Cuz I Dont Think Any One Was Talkin To U …But U Need To Grow Up And Stop Lettin Ur Man Hit U Ok!!
You are an ignorant fool
If she came out with what? what was there for her to say. what are you insinuating? that she provoked Chris Brown and therefore he was right to bash her face like that. Stupid women like you drive me crazy!
I don’t understand it either! D: This album in my opinion has a LOT more good songs on it. Maybe people just need time for it to grow on them.
It’s not selling because a lot of men won’t buy an Album from a women who hits her man and then cry’s when he hits her back. If you can’t take it don’t dish it out.
The CD is on point.I think out of ALL the songs I don’t care too much for ONLY 1 song.it is diff then wat she nornally does but its good music.plus I think she’s tryin 2 change her sound n image n she’s doin a good job.
people are tired of buying music just because its
what the major labels are trying to push by playing it on the radio over and over until your brainwashed.
The music industry is politicaly motivated
to the point where you are told what is good to listen to.
there is alot of great music out there that
is independently produced that you havent heard yet
because of this situation.
Well it seems Ri-Ri is gonna have 2 find a new plan, because bashing Chris Brown doesn’t seem to be working anymore.
and chris brown apologies is not working either
I don’t know he’s selling more than she is and his album hasn’t dropped yet.He’s number 1 and 2 on itunes download r&b, Forever is still number 6, he’s number 42 with Crawl on itunes top 100,billboard number 22.( ICTY) Chris Brown hasn’t had the promotion that RIRI did,his has mainly been the internet. She promoted her cd on David Letterman, AMA, GMA, London live concert, radio interviews, magazine interviews, has a free upcoming concert and let us not forget the album signing at Best Buy. Nothing could save that CD, now the difference between Rihanna and Chris brown is one word, TALENT… in the words of MR.JAY-Z…. Men lie, Women lie, numbers don’t!!!
They all have that one+ album that flops. Happens to even the best. She just has very weak singles and should have saved the singles she used for her re-release she did for the last album and put them o. This new one instead.
true that
i know right
HA HA!!!
Same thing happened with GGGB and it went on to sell millions so time will tell how badly RR sells.
even if she sells millions eventually the point is they were hoping for a first week kill sales for the first time hence all the chris brown talk and bash but it didnt work and i am so happy!!!
She did not BASH Chrissy! The foolish girl was, if anything, trying to protect him…..she was talkin about the man beating the CRAP out of her! (plain and simple) and there was onli so much she could’ve said (how do yu say that nicely??)…..moving on..she DID however wait until too late to speak on the issue which i thought to be a gimmick….she needs a new team cuz they have been in the business long enough to tell her what would & wouldnt work! its ridiculous and embarra**ing!! (as far as yu being happy? Kudos to yu!) Trillions of sales or 45 sales…..its still money in her “pocket”.
look shut the fork up fool, cris brown needs hes head bashing in not his girlie feelings. now blow away rubbish phoosh
Considering the fact that she has no talent, other than wearing outfits her stylist picks out and pretending to be a rockstar, she’s doing pretty good for herself.
Because the album is CRAP! tasteless, satanic music…Think satan would make u reach far rihanna…The LOrd THY GOD would kick you off that throne.
what the hell is your problem why you got to bring god into this. you are a hooker slut and i hope you get kicked of the throne
please fool, if rihanna is serving satan, so too is the entire world including you, your mum and dad, and entire family, so too are all the churches, politicians, simply put the entire world and everyone in it. now blow away rubbish. phoosh
200,000 copies is decent. Rihanna never expected this album to sell well anyway. It’s be best yet and she’s amazing. This is just one side of Rihanna. The album will pick up the slack in the long run. Go buy it. I just bought mine last night and I can’t stop playing it! So good and so heartfelt! TEAM RIHANNA!
Crap, Rihanna DID expect this album to do well or she wouldn’t have been promoting it on every tv, radio and magazine interview. She has performed songs from the cd on GMA, David Letterman and AMA not to mention the concert in London and a upcoming free concert in NY. Her record company had adverstiment on Bet,so I don’t buy that crap, No they all expected it do do much better. Chris Brown song ” I Can Transform Ya’ and ” Crawl” has only had the help of the internet up until yesterday when BET start playing his adverstiment for his new cd “GRAFFITI” Yet, both are number 1 and 2 on itunes downloads,r&B, and he’s in the top 25 on billboard… maybe the difference here is talent = fashion icon! Not a team of neither one just stating some facts!
Yes bill I agree!!!! Rihanna has no talent!! She doesn’t even have style her stylist picks this stuff out, she is a fake rockstar!! Go CHRIS I can’t wait to buy your album!
Sighs…i wonder why an OBVIOUS hater is even reading a Rihanna related article and then going through the trouble of leaving a comment…..and Home girl doan NEED a stylist…if its one thing about us bajans …OUR SWAG IS ON FRIKKIN POINT!!!
Island people can’t dress…I’m sorry…& she has a stylist. Duh! I’m sure if she didn’t she’d be wearing floral & mis-matched colors.
u r pitaful..u prolly r a girl who is on his side becus u think he is cute…i hope u fell lik rihanna felt that day…rihanna is talented if she wasnt y did she sell so many albums fron good girl gone bad…females can b soo dumb!!!u r jealous of rihanna..stop hatin little girl!!!!
Um no. She didn’t. So what of her appearances. Thats her publicist not her. Her album will do an excellent job. And what hae you two done with your lives?! Bill and Yes Bill?! NOTHING. Get some taste in music.
taste in music is an opinion. so u need to shut up. u sound stupid
@cameo- And you know me personally? It’s oblivious that you haven’t done very much with yours… (hae) or is that have. I have just as much to my opinion as you…. taste in music, I have it when it’s tasteful and not tasteless….
She just has some very weak singles talent has nothing to do with it. If you think about it Brit spears isn’t the best singer and I’ve seen better dancers, her albums fly off the shelves. As far as live singing goes, Rihanna sings circles around Brit!
you cant tell about the 200,000 copies sold. thats a
technicality the major labels use to convince the public to buy the album.You know “jump on the bandwagon”,its a marketing scheme.many labels
have poured money into projects they knew were crap.
I agree with you all the way bill
Rihanna said herself she didn’t expect this album to be a hit she just wanted to get something off her chest, and that’s all that matters to real artist album sales mean nothing Rihanna could make a hit album if she wanted to but guess she wanted to get these lit females a time to shine. And she’s grown so much in music is sad that you can’t see it
please tell that to the retarded is she that rich? never seem her name on forbes ever….she wants to give other females time to shine..how much shine does she have? 1 album out of 4….hmmmmm
she hardly even cares about her fans much less other artists and who are the little females you might be referring to anyways.
No one makes a cd to flop, sales mean nothing, well if the sales meant nothing, don’t sell it, give it away, oh sorry that’s what they were just about doing, $.99 cents! Her record label has spent big money promoting this cd, it’s on tv and the radio as commercials
please… Make a hit if she wants too, now that don’t make good sense to me or you. Rihanna has little talent for live concerts, most of her best work has been written by other artist, Disturbia was written by Chris Brown and others, she performs at her best with other artist on stage, like or not Chris Brown made her shine when they performed together. Giving other females a time to shine… I don’t understand that one, Lady GAGA, Susan Boyle are ahead of her in sales they don’t need any help. Maybe just maybe people seen that her interviews were changing every time she gave them, I mean on 20/20 want to be a voice for the young girls,embarra**ed to have fell in love with him, a week later on mtv ‘ I’m not a victim and don’t want to be a spokesperson” and most recently in a interview, ‘I miss him, think about the hotels we shared together, our favorite songs and I still listen to his music” Not one time hve we heard of her speaking to schools or teenagers but, she on the internet daily partying in London. Give me a break, I don’t condone domestic violence but please don’t use your incident for the wrong reason!!
Woah. and to think I thought this would sell millions because of the Chris Brown thing. Guess I was wrong…….
ok so you are saying her label just decided to waste money on an album just to help her get stuff out of her chest….really
no-one releases an album and expect it not to sell, they are all out there to make money….or are you confirming that the album isnt good?
this is her 4th album and so far she only has one hit album….all i can say is hmmmmmmmm
Lmao hold up I didn’t even kno she had 4 albums..I thot this was her 2nd one..damn that’s sad lol
lols ,
ue musht beh in ur own liddel world lols ,
x
1 hit album are you kiddin me, A girl like me was also a hit but not big as GGGB want me to name hits???
Rihanna has to LEARN to keep it professional…If she wants to allow people to get up close and personal, let them get up close and personal to the MUSIC…You have to draw the line somewhere/Believe it or not, being PRIVATE is what makes people search for you..check for you..but letting the world know your Business doesn’t help.
When she found out about that TEXT..she should have kept it cool wit’ Chris..played out the night letting him think everything was COOL…. man..IF SHE WOULD HAVE DID IT THAT WAY…instead of arguing like most of us women do…that would have made her album sell like crazy. People would be wondering why she left him..rather why he beat her…Pity don’t always make people spend money. A lot of women would go for that..and believe she is the “bad a**” she claims she is.
Even tho Chris has his mistake following him..she has to have the trail of being beat up follow her. Not a good look. Rated R, should be something she listens to in her ipod. But something in the direction of being strong in spite of being hurt should have been the focus of the album. Im a Rihanna fan and not sure what to think of this album. THOSE feelings are TOOOO PERSONAL..AND NOT OUR BUSINESS.
She will learn. Hope great things for you Rihanna, no one should want someone to fail.
I agree on everything u said..accept for the whole being rihanna fan..honestly she can not sing…period..but other then that I agree with you..
hahaha lol….I didn’t know I was a rihanna fan ’till I noticed I was singing “Russian Roulette” lmao..I was like damn..Maybe I am a fan. lmaoooo. My husband thinks she is a hoe after that Hot 97 interview wit’ angie mar.
lolol….usually you dont state opinions as truths or known facts……its a frikkin opinion!!
The problem with the album sales are the weak lead singles. There are better songs on the album but it’s def not GGGB
Its up to the label.If they want her to make it
she will. it has nothing to do with her talent.
Why would anyone put the energy into making an album and not expect it to do well? There are so many other artists making music at the same time, so there is a lot of competition in the music industry.
I think Rihanna deviated to far from her last cd. Her new cd has a a doom and gloom effect and I think people want to improve on their lives and relationships. Who wants to hear about failed relationships and sadness?
RIHANNA’S RATED R ALBUM IS VERYYYYYYYYYYYYYY GOOOD!!! RIHANNA FOREVER (L)
i think rihanna’s first single is a smash heat but the thing with HER other two songs i heard is that they dont follow up as the first single says…i thought i would be more of a contunaiation rather than just introducing a new song that doesnt link with Russia R…BUT I THINK THE GIRL IS TALENTED IN A WAYS
I like russian roulette..its a song to listen to when I’m down..but like others has said on here u dnt want to hear sad songs..you want to hear motivationals song like the new mary j blige song “I Am”..rihanna doesn’t have any talent other then dressing nice n her hair cutts..she she b a model…singer I think not..she’s to stiff n her vocals r not on point..I’m jus being real tho..
I think she contradicts herself. She makes a big deal about being a role model for young girls and she doesn’t want them to think it’s ok to be in a violent relationship but she is doing all these interviews talking about sex and her album pics are all mostly nude. So its bad to be in a an abusive relationship but it’s ok to be a slut.
I’m so glad that the MAJORITY of the people here are saying what I’ve been thinking.
Girl just isn’t an Album’s Seller. I said the only thing that would be able to save her is the Sympathy garnered over her abuse, but not even that seems to be able to do the impossible and after her Chris Brown Interviews and her Horny Interviews………how can you blame people from turning away.
Tasteless and not Cla**y at all.
Airing out your dirty laundry for sales is not Role Model behavior at all, no matter how much she wanted to play it off as just that.
Lots of growing up to do this one.
And her fans need to get educated on how many failed Albums this girl really has. They think she just has 1 before “Rated R” and that this girl is an Album’s Seller. The fact that they aren’t aware of all 4, just proves my point and how wrong they are and they don’t even know it.
Poor child.
Your right you see through the bull.
IF YOU GUYS HATE RIHANNA SO MUCH WHY TAKE TO TIME TO COMMENT ON SOMETHING LIKE THIS SO WHAT HER ALBUM DROP MOVE ALONG YOU SHOULDN’T EVEN CARE RIGHT?? OR IS SOMEBODY JUST PUTTING ON THE FRONT
I’m gonna buy her album just to help her, and like it or not I’ll buy Chris Browns album. I’ve forgiven him and I like BOTH of their music. I wish them the best.
Rihanna’s album is fantastic. I feel bad for all you haters that clearly have bad taste in music. At least she is doing something with her life. Even if this album doesn’t sell that doesn’t mean she doesn’t have talent, that just speaks for how uneducated people are in music. One song isn’t the entire album you need to hear it all and take it in. Its amazing. TEAM RIHANNA!!!
Only some of her songs are good…overall i’m not impress with the album…I really like Fire Bomb though, she matches more rockish, since she her vocals aren’t that strong…Don’t hate,Don’t like her either…NEUTRAL!!!
RiRi’s new album is fabulous. Her new songs are coming from her heart. Sure they’re not as upbeat and dancey like her past work but she’s just trying something new. An artists grows by trying new stuff and I think the new album is awesome. Just give it awhile and it might grow on you. Keep up the great work Rihanna.
New Songs from her heart??? you serious? how many songs did she write on the album?
i’ll wait…
Album is not garbage but its not great. Doesnt even sound like her at all. I know she didnt write anything but you can seriously tell. especially G4L. Who do she think she is? Lil Wayne. And the Stupid In Love thing is retarded. Its not Stupid in love, jus STUPID. Wake Up females, quit whining and do something about the men that hurt. Not keep going back covering your weakness up by saying your In Love. But like i said its not bad but could have been alot better. Melanie Fiona album is killin Rated R
The public r over educated so they can see through this stunt, i give lady gaga 3yrs and americans will drop her like ja rule. If u hv to last u need a strong talent like jay z r kelly snoop. Let see chris sales
Ok. So for you that majored in music we know that Rihanna can sing. She isn’t the best and she isn’t the worst. Technically she is in tune and hitting her notes fir the songs. I’ve heard her live and basically she of course sounds better when singing slower songs. Remember she isn’t acwhitney but her voice is suited for her type of music which is pop. You don’t have to be the best singer for pop. Of course I’ve heard her sound terrible butvthat has happened to the best as well. I doubt her album sales have much to do with chris., she just has some poor lead singles. We wa t dance hits from riri she should save slow for a 3rd single. I’ve heard the album I don’t personally think it is as good as GGGB but it is a different sound for her and with that and other artist you lose and gain fans when you switch it up. No big deal they all have their flop albums and singles ALL of them have that happen. Beyonce Madonna Britney, Xtina etc. Have all had songs that didn’t chart well. So I think that even if this whole chris thing didn’t happen the album sales would be the same. Step up your singles riri!
Rihanna truly is a victim of herself trying to exploit her situation at the exspense of Chris Brown. The poor album sales is no surprise to me. Let’s be honest, she never really set the world on fire with her album sales before. Who cares about this really? This is all madness!!!! She is not using her voice to change the world or anything!!! Now she’s going to be a**ociated with the victims of the industry……sad! She got greedy and got victimized by herself, fell into her own trap! I don’t feel any pity for he she should
Of kept it quiet and move on. Chris Brown was wrong for what he did but aren’t we all?
Rihanna is OVER EXPOSED, and not for the right things. She can’t sing… she can’t dance … she can’t write … now what???? If u really compare her and Bee’s new videos, u can’t deny it! Bee and Lady Gaga slayed that Video Phone music video, while Riri walked around and made faces in both of her big budget videos. Whatevs Riri…
Rihanna flopped because of one thing and one thing only…
KARMA! She decided to throw chris under the bus and it didnt pay off. For all the stans trying to say its not a big deal. IT IS! For someone with all the promo she has done. And all the good reviews she has, PLUS the incident. Her sales should be THROUGH THE ROOF but there not. Its not because of bad singles or the economy. Its Because karma is a b*tch! you reap what you so. Tried to kick chris while he was down and It came back on her.
I am glad Susan Boyle is killing her on the charts. Susan has broken down barriers for women everywhere and she proved that you don’t need to beawanna be playboy bunny to be a star.
that’s wat u get after bshin breezy
I stopped liking Rihanna after her 20/20 interview, and how she threw Chris Breezy under the bus. Never once did she say she did anything wrong. We all know she’s not the innocent victim here. Sure, Chris made a mistake, but he has been honest with his feelings, his love for Rihanna. She actually bashed him by saying she was “embara**ed to have loved him”…that is so heartless. Chris Breezy is definately more talented than Rihanna.Also her songs are dark and make me want to shoot myself in the head.
I will not buy her album despite all the commercials they have on BET to buy it. I’m glad Susan Boyle is kicking her talentless a**. Susan Boyle has something Rihanna doesn’t have:Talent.
I will buy Chris Brown’s Grafitti album Dec.8th.
Bought her album…Not the greatest, I only like about 3 tracks on it… But i’ve heard a preview of Chris Brown’s new ablum…Sounds great…Now that one imma really have to buy…But overall her album wasn’t the best…She really have no emotion when she sings…it’s pretty dead and boring…but who cares i have the album already…
wow!alot of haters on here.sad.they upset because they have no talent thier own selves!well i love the two singles but people we are in a recession and its close to christmas time money is a little tight!hopefully it does well and im so sick of other females not being on her side.after all shes the one who got the hell knocked out of her!us females need to come together because guess what men always stick together no matter what!

DON’T BELIEVE ME CHECK BILLBOARD.COM THAT’S ALOT IN ONE WEEK, SO YALL NEED TO GET YA FACTS STRAIGHT THIS WAS HIGHER THAN GGGB EVER SOLD IN ONE WEEK
i thought we were TALKING about the ALBUM not her SOCIAL SITUATIOn truth be told the ALBUM is amazing!!! It’s a new SOUND by A NEW GIRL you cnt expect the same sound from a person 4 YEARS AGO! the Game CHANGES CONSTANTLY and you gotta either adapt or FALL BEHIND… The Album will grow on YOU GIVE IT A CHANCE PLEASE…
Rihanna never had a Big 1st week opening….i am sure most if not all the songs on this album will be a single….it has alot of promise….gr8 work….i still don’t get why ppl are saying that the album flopped….it didn’t….lets talk about someone’s album who did flop and that would be 50cent….only selling just over 12000 copies in the 1st week….RR will do gr8 just wait and see….also i guess what ppl expected to see from riri on this album did not happen because of the incident with CB so i guess she had to change the album up and doing a complete 180….i guess the fans were looking for a more techno/rock album…it’s still not too late she can pull that off with another album….but as far as the new RR album…it’s gr8!!!
she an over rated artist something has got to fall into balance. barbadosans are losers.
Umm…. this album sold more in the first week than her previous album Good Girl Gone Bad, so who says Rated R won’t be as good or even better, she has just started with promotional tours and dates but she has placed 4th on the Albums chart selling 181,000 copies in her first week, slighty BETTER than Good Girl Gone Bad and most people loved that album ! GO RIHANNA
So many people are on here arguing and what not… Wtf? Who cares…
When it comes down to it….she cant sing, can’t dance and can’t really perform. People aren’t stupid, the girl’s voice, if we’re being honest, is mediocre at best. Even I can see that and im a fan. I liked her simply because it seemed they recognised her level was lite-pop, non-challenging songs and were going to go that Britney route with her; package her neatly and sell her without making a thing about her voice being great or her being some great all round talent like lady Gaga or Beyonce. Its when they tried to make her “an artist” that it all went wrong.
Shes a young attractive girl who can sing a middle of the road unchallenging song well. LET HER STICK TO THAT AND FASHION. The album sales will be right back up again. If it aint broke why fix it?
Plus they need to stop pushing that Chris Browngate incident and stop her singing live. It doesnt help!
I think this album is a complete flop, it’s so different to her previous work that i dont think her fans were expecting this.
Im not a fan of hers and i dont dislike her.
im thinking its all the things that have happened to her have influenced the way she is viewing the world – she seems more cynical and dark
I COULDN’T AGREE WITH YOU MORE. RIHANNA SEEMS REALLY DARK AND ITS NOT SO MUCH AS MYSTERIOUS AS IT IS SCARY! I STILL LIKE SOME OF HER SONGS BUT HER VIDEOS ARE SO OVER THE TOP. ONE AFTER THE OTHER SHE JUST TAKES OFF MORE CLOTHES! I DON’T KNO I LOVED HER LAST LP BUT THIS ONE I JUST DON’T KNO….
her CD is amazing… I think russian roulette may have turned people off? im not sure, but every song besides that one is bad a** on that CD. i’m baffled also… it should be # 1!!!
IF Rihanna wants men to buy her music then she should stop hitting them.
WHO CARES!!!!!! Y ARGUE OVER RIHANNA AND CHRIS.. THEY STILL MAKING MONEY REGARDLESS!!! U GUYS R SO CHILDISH.. PLZ GROW UP. AFTER ALL CHRIS AND RHIANNA ARE NOT PAYING U TO DEFEND THIER HONOR.. ITS EITHER U LIKE THEM OR U DONT.. AND IF U DONT.. Y EVEN COMMENT ABOUT THEM ???
I just want 2 say I got Rrhanna cd and i have to ammit the cd is hot. She has alot of good a** songs on there.
Please do us all a favor and get your facts straight before posting them online!!!! Rihanna’s CD is a Flop??? Are you effin crazy? I guess having two top ten singles since the release is a flop. “Russian Roulette” reached the #9 spot on the Billboard Hot 100, giving Rihanna her twelfth top ten single of her career, and “Hard” reached the #8 spot on the Billboard Hot 100, giving Rihanna her thirteenth top ten single on the chart. “Hard” also reached #1 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart.. The album “RATED-R” was certified PLATINUM by the RIAA on January 8, 2010!!!! That’s LESS THAN 2 months since the album was released in late November!!!!!! HMMMMMMMMMM sure doesn’t sound like a flop to me! I guess we know one of the people Rihanna was talking about in her HIT SINGLE “Hard” when she says “Where dem bloggers at? Where dem bloggers at? Where they at? Where they at? Where they at?” HAHAHAHAHAHA
Hahahahha!!! I love it JC!!!! I’m glad you set it straight!!!! ….. Where dem bloggers at? And FYI-The album is hot!! Rude Boy, Rock Star, Photographs, and G4L are my Favs!
LMAOO THATS NOT TRUE! RIHANNA ALBUM DID NOT FLOP! WHERE DO THE HATERS GET THIS STUFF.
A five week long number 1 single with Rude Boy! Two other top ten singles! A top 5 platinum album!
Call that a flop?!!?
LMFAO I don’t think so =P
so your telling me lady gaga is not going in the same direction??
nobody said nething about lady gaga
To AAS & KB : Lady Gaga came out as Lady GAGA : Provocative, sensual, etc..etc. She knows what she wants, don’t care about what people think about her & she’s a true creative artist. (my honest opinion)
Same thing with Alicia Keys (she knew who she was & what she can do & not do as an artist, etc…)
Rihanna is still musically searching herself. She’s more of a product with a big team surrounding her. I think she is still discovering who she is as “an artist”.
Ma Gaaaaad!!!! I totally agree with every word new
new said….its like you took the words right out of my mouth. I just look at her video for the song ” the wait is over” and i must say…WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO HER!!!! She’s just overly gothic….i mean what happened to the girl who sang “music of the sun” and “if its loving that you need”…..I miss her good girl side. Quuite frankly, am tired of rihanna now. These days i dont even give her music a chance….coz i know to expect less than from her.
I COULDN’T HAVE SAID IT BETTER MYSELF AND I’M A WOMEN WHO USED TO BE ABUSIVE UNTIL I BECAME THE ABUSED.
