Not with this ANTI mess, the diary, the released songs etc.. She would make them throw tomatoes at her if she stood on the stage singing old songs even tho naming the tour "the Anti tour".

I really hope not. We already had Diamonds World Tour.

Beyoncé announced a tour before spending the whole year teasing though... Rihanna has teased since late 2014 and the tour is still months away. Plus Bey had never toured 4 properly, whereas Rih did for her last album, so it's not the same thing and it would be a mess to not release the album for another year almost.

Clearly, the internet is buckling under the sheer weight of ANTIcipation. With every door that opens, another server dies.

I hope not. It won't work for her.

Beyonce did not release & promote 3 singles, name an album, and reveal the album cover and send her fans on a wild goose chase playing games for the album.

Ya'll keep trying to make this comparison happen and I don't understand why....

not to mention that tour only really worked for beyoncé in that way because she is known as a performer

Rihanna is not

I really have no idea anymore. It probably wouldn't even surprise me if the album aint released when the tour starts.

Well Beyoncé is the standard after all.

It would be A disaster

.

Lolz no?

I don't think she is doing the exact thing, but it's clear she's doing something similar to what Beyoncé did: tease new music, build anticipation after a year full of expectation, etc. etc. Remember how we thought she was releasing her lead at the Super Bowl, in her documentary, after all those covers, and all that? We were expecting stuff at every turn, as people are of Rihanna.

The difference is that Beyoncé pulled it off with dignity and didn't anger her fans in the process. She gave us lots of new music (she had collabs, soundtrack songs, songs in ads) and even performed them on tour. She teased us but she never promised something that wasn't delivered. And then the result as well worth the wait. It was brilliant and no one cared that we had to wait.

Not comparable.

1. Beyoncé didn't tour for 4 so that tour was for that album, Rihanna already toured for her latest album.
2. Beyoncé never said she was going to release an album, Rihanna already said she has a new album, she already released 3 singles and she named the tour after the album so there's going to be songs from the album there.

Tea
BEYONCÉ was handled very professionally
ANTI...... were still not quite sure what the hell is going on
