when there's a smash hit written all over Cheers (Drink To That) ?

Because she asked the fans, and they chose that.

I think it's the fact the label wanted Cheers to be the lead single and the radio stations said Only Girl would work better, coupled with the fact CKB was chosen as a single by the fans...

I like them both.
![]() But yup, I would probably choose Cheers, I agree. It's something a bit different from the latest singles.

Man Down is being released in the US (I think) as well as CKB.

It think it's time they released a ballad/slower song from her as there's already been 3 club bangers released.
Personally I would have loved Cheers to be released. It's one of my favourites from the album and it has such a summer feel to it. |

They should both get released IMO. Will there be any more singles after CKB?

So CKB, Man Down, C(DTT) are all being released. I also think that Raining Men may be.

"At the beginning of March 2011, Rihanna asked fans to help her select her next single. Via twitter, fans were asked to choose from "Cheers (Drink to That)", "Man Down", "California King Bed" or "Fading"."
I think that may suggest the next singles. |

Her fans voted for it, so it's a sure hit.

She's releasing 7 songs out of 10, she's running out of songs now!... soo funny
![]() I bet you, she's going to re-release Loud, like she did with GGGB. That's why I haven't bought Loud yet... I've just had a feeling she was going to. |

Surely 7 singles is a bit ridiculous... talk about milking an album, even if it's a very good one. I don't think that'll happen - if Man Down and CKB are both confirmed then I think they'll leave it at that, or just possibly one more (probably Cheers if it's a fan favourite, but if it's true that promo for Raining Men has started then presumably that).

How anyone can say Rated R is inferior to Loud is beyond me

I was hoping that after Rated R and GGGB, that Rihanna would release another Dancehall album, like her first two, but when she said that Loud would be a dance album, I was disappointed that the album was a mixed bag of different genres. Its not a bad album, but she's done better.
