Got Talk That Talk for Christmas - it's a stellar, nice album l love 7 of out of the 11 tracks (You Da One, Where Have You Been, Talk That Talk, We Found Love, Drunk on Love, We All Want Love, Farewell) am impartial to 2 (Roc Me Out, Watch N Learn) and openly dislike 2 (Cockiness, Birthday Cake) but it's nowhere near the quality of Rated R or Loud where I basically loved all the tracks. Should she take a break till 2013?

YES. I like her but she is everywhere all the time and I do hate when people release albums once a year, Sick of seeing her.

A greatest hits album next year, then done until she's in her 30s.

Maybe just take a nice relaxing year off making some sweet music, then come back bigger than ever!

I like Rihanna and I have just ordered the new album, but I do think that she should take a break. She knows that she should take a break too (her health scares etc), but she's a workaholic. I can't imagine Rihanna doing nothing. She seems like somebody who always has to be doing something.

YES!For her own sake!It's just not normal for an artist to be recording one album per year for 6 years!And this year they took it way too far.She hadn't finished the tour for her 5th album when she was shooting the video for the 2nd single of her 6th album, while promoting the 1st single at the same time...A mess!

Ideally, she would take a 3-week break now just to lay back a little bit and get ready to continue the album's promo campaign and then she can take an extended break after 3 more singles and videos.

I like her but I think she needs to release a Greatest Hits album next year, maybe have a couple of new songs on it and them come back the following year with a killer album. I would probably buy a GH album as I love her singles but I'm not really likely to buy her albums.

Yes for sure. Even if she could wait another 5/6 months more than the usual yearly gap, so like June 2013 for the next album.

No.

I have loved the last 3 albums so much, I hated the ones before Rated R and those were the ones that took longest to make.

If she can release music like We Found Love and Only Girl and Russian Roulette and Rude Boy and Cheers and Man Down, at the rate she does then you keep going girl!

IKR? I really don't know what her label were thinking. Plus her tour isn't even a small venue tour, this was a global 98 date arena tour we're talking about.
I think the decision to release Talk That Talk whilst on tour affected her first week sales in US. I mean she's hardly done any promo there at all. The only one I can think of is Ellen which she didn't even perform at just did an interview and the Grammys nomination concert where they just showed a satellite of her performing WFL in London. A mess right?!

I dunno how she keeps touring, recording, releasing videos, etc she must be superwoman! She does need to take a break for herself. She's only 23, she needs to relax a little

Yes. There are already rumours of her burning out, and she has been late to her shows and has cancelled some too.

She needs to take a long break. Not because I don't like her, and not because I think she's the hardest working person out there (because she most certainly isn't) but because it's just sad when people lose themselves like that.

It has reached a point now where even the tabloids don't talk about her ''personal life'' as much as they did because she doesn't really have one.

She needs to take a few years off like Madonna did!! Beyonce also needs a few years off too because one year isn't enough for her!! Rihanna can afford to release a greatest hits album next year because she has the hits!! Maybe beyonce can afford one as well

Yes, but rather than Rianna take a break from music some law could be passed giving the uk a break from her music, videos and press bits. Rianna goes to Mcdonalds and rides the underground, fascinating.
