    Again, what is with the promo for this album???

    Its like they are just purposefully trying to screw it up. I love Rudeboy and Hard but why do they just confuse people??? I seen the Hard video was #1 on Viva a few days ago.

    Lovin the album atm though, actually really looking forward to her tour in May :)

    I know what you mean. Promo is all over the place. Shame because it's a really good album.

    There's no shame really about it. The album is selling well.

    yes but it would sell better if her management/record company got their act together.

    Sell better? It's only been out for just 2 months.

    GGGB was a slow seller and eventually sold 7 million copies. Patience people.

    Rude boy is expecting to make the top 40 this week. That's the only Rude boy news i know. A video should really be premiering soon. Radio 1 play Rude boy quite a bit as well.

    Thanks. Can't believe there isn't a video yet, and why is Hard getting played on the music channels?!

    I don't know. I thought Hard was a US single and Rude Boy was for the UK? Don't know what's happening with the promo for this album..

    Any predictions for Rude boy?

    I reckon maybe top 10, but won't stay around too long like Russian roulette but enough to rise her album sales and maybe get it higher than the 16 peak it got in November.

    The short hair gave her an edge tbh. She was always being looked at as a Caribbean Beyonce. Good thing she went behind her labels back and did her own thing. It has paid off massively. More people began buying Rihanna's music when she did this.

    I'm a 57 year old woman :o - and I think Rihanna is great. IMHO Russian Roulette is her finest to date, but looking forward to more...:)
