are people getting tired of rihanna?
Do you think people are loosing interest in Rihanna?her last 2 singles pour it up and right now have flopped badly in the UK and around the world..both missing d top 40..I think she really needs a break because she has had singles out non stop for d past few years..if she has another yearly release this year I think it will do worse then unapologetic like unapologetic has done worst than her last album..or if she does take a year off she could be replaced and forgotten..

Talk sold 3
Unapologetic is about 2-2.5 mill
I think Loud 5.7 WW (1.5 US 1.7 UK)
TTT 4.5 (1.1 Uk 1.3 US)
Unapologetic 3 (1.1 US 630,000 UK)
I'm not getting tired of her persoanlly, although her latest single Right Now was pretty boring. A rapper I like has released/featured on over 40 songs so far this year, and nobody is complaining about him. Rihanna release about 15 songs a year, that's nothing compared to a lot of artists I like.
Been sick of her since that bl**dy Umbrella song was everywhere
That makes two of us.
Nobody Beness is not gonna be a single!!
I think it's down to the label, not her. Labels call the shots when they want another album, not the artist. Well depending on the artist.
This sort of thing was explored on the TV show Nashville. They wanted Juliette to rush release another album and she didn't want to and wanted to take a year or so out, and they kept pressuring her and she gave in the end.
Very big era for her. It's her second biggest selling album. What hasn't done Talk that talk and her current album any justice, is her lack of music videos and promotion for singles. She has only given us 5 music videos in the last two years, and Rihanna would always be on a roll with her music videos on past albums.
Make it three.
to be honest at the success level Rihanna is at, im sure she can put her foot down and say 'no im taking a year out'. I highly doubt her record label would turn around and go 'well then you're dropped'
This.
I don't think you see how big a cash cow she is for Def Jam. She is HUGE finance there. That's a lot of regular income to lose, even if it's for her own health. She's not that talented (as much as I used to stan, it's true) and she can be replaced, and they know that. They're milking her.
Pretty much.
Don't mistake the flop chart performance of 'Right Now' as an indicator of Rihanna fading. All it indicates is that her team is getting lazy or that they got enough money from tour tickets and couldn't care less about singles or the album anymore.
And by the way, the 4.5 million copies figure for 'TTT' is WAAAAYYYY inflated and I have no idea who put that on Wikipedia, but don't fal for it. 'Loud' has sold about 6 million, 'TTT' has sold almost 3,5 million and 'Unapologetic' has sold a little over 3 million. And these are the actual sales figures.
