I hope Diamonds and the singles after get better promo this era

'You da One' actually did pretty well, IMO. Sure, it was released and peaked in WFL's shadow but it still managed to go Top 15.
'Birthday Cake' could have been a smash, had Def Jam actually released it. But it smashed on urban radios and charted in the Top 25 on the Hot 100 due to just airplay. I think it was quite successful, given it's limited/non-release.
'Cockiness' flopped, but honestly I think Rihanna/DJ only released it so that she would have something new to perform at the VMAs.
I really don't think DJ would be as unorganised this time around with the new era, at least I hope not.
