Theres no denying that this is tragic for Rihanna, but this whole album campaign has been horrible so im not surprised.
The thing is though, is that she can definitely smash again imo. If next year she released a pop album (if the album campaign isnt a disaster) the GP will be back to loving her.
Did ya'll expect any better from Rih? After years of not releasing and having no smashes currently out, do you honestly think Rihanna would magically become an album seller with that botched release?
This is her ARTPOP era so it is now appropriate to say music not the bling.
