I guess they have some clues, cuz they have connections with label, but I think you're overestimating their knowledge  like, someone from Rihanna's camp told them about album cover showcase party a day or two before so they could organize a fans' meeting. Or maybe some insiders share their suppositions about time of the release, like "most likely in Q2". I honestly don't think RDaily knew for sure about the release dates back in spring - there were different rumors circulating through different sites tho - maybe someone (from insiders) mislead them, and now they're saving face with teases that lead everyone to conclusion that they did everything as they intended. I think so because I've seen some examples that put my guard on, for example, "she scrapped the visual concept" assumptions (although she worked with Roy Nachum on it since 2014, how, I mean, she could've "scrapped" smth from it?..) Also, I was told by one guy linked to Universal that R8 (time before Anti) "was intented to come out before the end of 2015, no more infos we know" - call me a reliable source then or smth... Everything is kept in secret. Sharing extra infos w/ fansite? Doubt it. Maybe blurry/necessary minimum/last minute only
(Of course if Rih decided to preview the album on RDaily exclusively - which I doubt - I'd change my opinion

Some of you are SO ignorant, literally. I've been a reader of RD for YEARS and have known / spoke to their owners many times. Since GGGB days and they've always had inside connections to her team. Especially beginning in 2009 when they became the OFFICIAL Rihanna fansite. They know more than all of us, they know release dates, they know it all and you don't believe that they know information then you're wrong, ignorant, and don't know what you're talking about. Clearly some of you don't know RD I've been a member of their forums for years too. They know everything prior to us - tour info, singles, albums, events, etc. Rihanna's label always keeps them in the loop because they've proven themselves as the best, most reliable, professional, and dedicated Rihanna source around.
