Many of you will also be confused about the second single...but what is going on??

Okay, Russian Roulette was the first single, no confusion their. But for the second single, "Wait Your Turn" got a music video said it would be the second then it was canceled. Then we were told it would be "Rudeboy" on websites such as digitalspy, but lots of websites have told me "Hard" will be the second UK single whilst its video is currently on video channels. Whats gonna happen next "Fire Bomb" video released? "Te Amo" released to music videos?

I am a huge fan and i love Rihannas Rated R. But this is so messed up, as i see it "Wait Your Turn" should be next, followed by "Hard" then a summery single "Te Amo" followed by "Fire Bomb" and then "Rude Boy". what do you think...

I think the whole album promo has been messed up. Normally there's a title confirmed, then we see the track listing about 3 months before release, then we hear/see an a first single, release date, album out. Wait Your Turn was a promo single, because on her website/twitter she had 'the wait is over' to get people guessing.

A lot of people have suggested that Rude Boy is the second UK single, while Hard is released in the states. she did a similar thing with Breakin' Dishes being released in the states while Hate That I Love You was released over here. I've only seen the video for Hard. Confusing if Rude Boy is meant to be the next UK single

It feels like the whole album has been rushed. Not the album itself, but the release and singles. We don't know what's happening.

I've been hearing Rude Boy on Galaxy FM so I assume they are going with this.

It should have been:

September 09 - Website created, maybe some virals, Wait Your Turn released as promo single
October 09 - Album title revealed, tracklist revealed, Russian Roulette premieres
November 09 - RR released, album release
February 10 - Hard released
May 10 - Rude Boy released
August 10 - Fire Bomb/Rockstar 101 released

Then probably a re-release before this Christmas.

I hope she doesn't keep re-releasing again. I got the final re-release of GGGB which I love, but I hate it when artists re-release when most of their fans have the original copy.:sleep:

When I was listening to Galaxy FM, they were playing Hard and Wait Your Turn.

Alot of "upcoming releases" websites have Rude Boy as the next single but 'Hard' has been on the music channels and people are downloading it on iTunes.

It does feel like the label are rushing things which I think is a shame. The album is brilliant so they should try and take their time. Having all these videos out are just gonna confuse people.

Maybe she's just doing what Beyonce does, and recording a video for almost every album track? I agree its a bit confusing, and they should confirm something, but maybe they're intentionally focusing on promoting the album? After all, thats where the money comes from, not from the singles.

Anyway I hope she releases Rude Boy next. Then Fire Bomb, Photographs and Te Amo. I love Cold Case Love as well, but I think a radio edit would ruin the song a bit. I hope she puts out a full 6 minute video for it though.

Its confusing...

I want her to be finished with this album as soon as possible, I really dont like her dark style, I want her to go back to up-tempo.

The album is close to going gold in the US. To be fair, GGGB was a slow album in terms of sales. It wasn't until she re-released the album when the album really began to sell loads.

I think it's sold about 200k which is good despite only making a peak of 17.

Also this is her fastest selling album of her career. It may not have sold as much so far as people would have thought, but still I'm sure she's not complaining. In time sales may pick, just like'GGGB' did.

She should make up her mind, is it Hard or Rude Boy for next single? All the release schedules say Rude Boy, yet Hard was just number 1 on Today's 4Music Top 10, so i'm sooo confused...

Apparently she's already started recording new songs, either for a re-release or a new album.

As I see it she shouldn't release anything else. The album is really, really, really bad.
I liked Russian Roulette alot but then heard the album and was disappointed.
I liked a couple of the slower songs though, but can't remember the titles which isn't a good thing.

I think it's a pretty good album. Stupid In Love, Hard, Wait Your Turn, Russian Roulette, Fire Bomb, Rude Boy, Rockstar and The Last Song are all really good. The others are crap, though.

Problem is, though, I can't see any of those ^ being singls (besides RR obviously). Everytime I hear them it just screams pretty good album track and not potential single.

My least fave is G4L.
