AGAIN PEOPLE READ: http://www.metacritic.com/music/artists/rihanna/ratedr


so many newbie people in music dont know how to classify an album

Adam Lambert's gonna out-sell Rihanna

I knew she wasn't ready for a comeback.

Maybe the people are not ready for a comeback

I think it was a terrible choice from her label to release this week... too many people are out this week too: Susan Boyle + GaGa + Adam L. ..
They should release Hard as a single and wait a few weeks

I used to be such a huge Rihanna stan.
But this album is a big disappointment after GGGB and it's certainly not better than it.
The bad girl thing on GGGB was a great promo, but this bitch thing doesn't fit her.
The singles should have been: (some should be)
1. Wait Your Turn
2. Cold Case Love
3. Photographs
4. Russian Roulette
5. Te Amo
6. Rude Boy
7. Fire Bomb
These are the only good songs on the album too.
The album is vocally her weakest, on par with MOTS.
There are no dance songs, which are her best side, and she said she was working on something like "Breakin' Dishes" or "Disturbia", but there's none of that here.

And another thing, not connected to music. WHAT THE **** HAPPEN TO HER HAIR???
She looks ugly, I want this hair back! Or at least something similar.

her

Poor Rihanna

Hopefully she will disappear back to the Barbados sewers from which she came after this.

To think had she release something halfway listenable and decent like DISTURBIA or DONT STOP THE MUSIC, she could have sold 350k. Pathetic

Predictions,predictions

There are just WAY too many big names releasing this week. Her label should have picked a safe week for a secure #1 spot and WYT should have been 1st single. Russian Roulette doesn't appeal to masses.

Shakira isn't even mentioned.

There you go Epic/Sony...

big dumbasses lol It should have been released the date it was meant to be as the rest of the world (OCTOBER)

she can't handle competition the label thought Susan Boyle was just gonna bow to Rihanna

better luck next time rihanna

Why does GaGa chart twice? I've never seen that happening just bc it's a deluxe edt?

oh and anybody got number for Shakira?

this exactly

this is why from i always predicted 150-200k she's basically releasing a single off her NAME (which obvs doesnt work for her) b/c she doesnt even have a big hit on radio now

i think she'll be 0K in the long run if they releases the right singles ... i hope

Those projections don't include the amazon special that will go in effect Friday.

The Monster and The Fame Deluxe are 2 different albums. Monster is her sophmore album.

The Deluxe sales are being combined with The Fame sales to equal 150k.

If you read the article he outsold Gaga too and she has had singles all over the charts for a year.

That's because GaGa's sales are split. It's not really a fair comparison now is it?
