Maroon 5 was probably the only "band" I listened to occasionally, so them teaming me up was a natural like for me. And probably an unpopular opinion, but I actually like Push Up On me more than Breakin Dishes and maybe even DSTM.  |

I shouldn't assume anything (sorry  ), but I'm assuming that Rihanna played the new material for her label because one, she recorded material earlier this year (she confirmed so via Twitter), and two, she said "Great ****" which means they must have played new material and she was calling it great ****. Plus, if a fall release is what is planned, she must be near completion in recording or be completed. Loud was released last November and completed in August, so this would be similar if so.
I hope so! As we all know, singles and albums are almost always released on Tuesdays, and there are Tuesdays in late August on August 23 and August 30. I'm expecting the lead single on one of those dates, or if not, September 6. My best bet is August 30. That way they can give a little more time for CKB to play out and become either a total hit or a total flop.
I think they'll basically do with LoudR exactly what they did with Loud. First single in late August/early September, second in late October/early November, actual EP in mid-November. We should be getting lots of new rumors about LoudR in August if I'm right.  |
How was I unaware of this? OMG THAT IS SO EXCITING!
I don't hope that Def Jam do what they did with Loud. Only Girl mid September and Loud mid November? That was torture. The rumours were fun, but being so close to new music and so far away at the same time was so painful. (I only listened to 4 Loud songs before the release, including OG and WMN?.)
I hope we get the first single late August/early September and then just re-release Loud at the end of September, maybe early October. The re-release doesn't need a 2 month long wait frrom the lead single. (In my opinion)

Wow! Oh well, everyone has their own opinion. 
I'm not a massive fan of Maroon 5, and IINSYFA is ok, but for the last few hours and even as I type this, I can't get enough of "Moves Like Jagger". Wow. Its so good.

If she collaborates with Justin Bieber
Maybe another top 5 or top 10 but I really don't want to see them collaborate....

I think the main reason I love IINSYFA is that I love songs that are structured like "battles" or has the two artists not secluded to just their own verses. I love how Rihanna and Adam switch after each line or so.
Maybe that's why I inexplicably loved Keri Hilson's flop Return the Favor like no other.

I LOVE RETURN THE FAVOR! 
Yeah, I see what you mean. I am trying to think of other "battle songs"... I have to admit, songs structured like this are the best types of (feat.)s. They are REAL duets, not some random appearance for a verse and you never hear the featured artist again during the song.
In saying that, I also don't mind when an artists continually appears for the chorus of a song. Even that is much better than appearing for a second and disappearing.
You are making me liking IINSYFA more and more now that I think about it like this. Funny how someone's attitude towards something can change a lot when it is placed under a different light.

I loooooved Return the Favor. It was so embarrassing cause literally no one either heard of it, or liked it.
I forgot, two of the best duets ever, Scream and The Boy Is Mine, were both kind of set up in a lyrically "battle" way, as well. I wish more duets were like that. It's what made me love IINSYFA so much. That, and paired with the contrast of Adam's high-pitched vocals mixed with Rihanna's deeper ones was a nice contrast for a male/female duet.

Its unusual aswell, you wouldn't normally hear the male's voice being higher pitched than the female's. But I admit, it works well. Hopefully there is a duet like this on the re-release.

Rihanna + another pop act = mess.
Rihanna + Hip Hop/Rap = smash

Please no. Everyone and their mom is jumping on the dubstep trend. Rihanna needs to stay being an innovator with new sounds. Plus, I hate dubstep

Like above, I think she works best when going outside the box and being innovative. Rihanna is known for her outstanding songs with rappers (either with her as the feature or them). She has non-hip hop artists like Adele publicly stating they want to work with her; she should do it.
Besides, I can't really think of a rapper that she hasn't already worked with that I have any desire to see her team up with, save for maybe Missy Elliott if she's back on her music grind. I would, however, love a Katy, Adele, or P!nk collabo, though.
