It should be able to reach #7-#8.
If video views are higher... then maybe more.
If the video gets the views and sales stay mediocre (around Top20) it should also be able to go Top10

Gurl, it won't get that much
Taylor broke the record with 20 million, so Rihanna won't get past 12 - 13 million with an urban song, especially without a high profile premiere like Taylor's at the BBMAs. If the video is extremely shocking, it might snatch 15 million but that's the most it can do (which is still amazing anyway)
But she's currently #29 on overall airplay and she has a good iTunes hold, so if she waits another week, she'll start falling on iTunes and urban radio. I hope she releases it on Tuesday for that top 10 peak
