Thanks for the information. Didn't know she's pulling off a Sasha Fierce.

Ok, this to much
I hate this song. LTWYL is still smash in Europa, OG is worldwide smash, What's My Name is us hit, who's that chick is euro hit, wtc 7.12 will bee give adds, and now Raining Men 6.12

The poll Rihanna made was about the next pop single... S&M or Cheers. The next pop single isn't going to be released for a while with both OG & WMN? smashing that format. I really seriously doubt RM is gonna be a pop single, unless Def Jam is that foolish.

It would be perfect if the third pop single & RM were released at the same time, but I guess that's not happening anymore. Ugh, DJ was doing so good this era too!

They should either release Cheers ASAP for new years or S&M
I like Raining Men, but I think this is too soon...however, it is good timing at the same time, it gives Pink Friday and Loud more publicity, and Nicki is very relevant right now

I agree with this
but overseas they should go for either Cheers or S&M

already? this makes no sense They want Rihanna to have 2 top 10 on pop and urban and 3 on rhythmic at the same time? That's too much and overexposure, there is no need for it because the album is selling well and the singles are smashing, especially WNM? Nonsense

Cheers for New Years. COME ON. It's a very good strategy.

no, no more singles until next year this is crazy, at this rate the loud era will be over before the rated r era

They want every possible sales for the holiday, but why this song?

but this moves reeks desperation

Fly sucks. Raining men >>>

I love the choice. But too soon Def jam too soon. U sure its not January 6th?

anyways it looks like S&M beat Cheers for the 3rd single for Pop and international markets then.

I know, exactly. They need to take their time & not rush if they want this album to sell throughout next year.

They need to do it because next year will be frontloaded with lots of releases from music superstars. January to March is a wane period for album sales, it's logical to milk at it's fullest the opportunity.

People the single is only for urban radio! .........................

They still should have went with Man Down for Urban.

Too early, but I guess since it's just a Radio release that won't hurt.

Ok people... keep in mind this is going to Urban Radio... we may get something else for Pop.

How Big is Teh Dick?

the only urban competition would be beyonce, and they can coexist, so it's not that. this to me looks like they want to ride on nickis success and they don't believe the hype will last very long

That can be saved for last. Nicki is hot right now. Plus since its only radio .. I think Def Jam will release to iTunes in like January. Obviously there gonna go with a much high profile single to Pop.
