XO was the WW single and it flopped. No qualms there.

But don't come for DrIL until Rih at least gets a Top 3 hit.

Drunk In Love = sounds like a hit, has a POWER COUPLEEE! dynamic and one-liners.
FourFiveSeconds = an acoustic song featuring an elderly man and one of music's most hated.

Yet FourFiveSeconds will still outsell DIL in, like, a month from now. Probably less. BOOKMARK!

Why does the Navy keep trying it? DrIL outperformed FFS in the only market it was released in.
(It was only sent to US urban radio).

Outperform when it will get outsold?


Anyway:

Rihanna reacting to Bey explaining her sabotajing ways

Ugh please don't let that Marvin Gaye song smash

Looking at CRTFY WW peaks and comparing them to DiL/XO.

Remember when Ryan Tedder thought XO was going to be bigger than Halo

[Sunshine.]

The fact that Bey didn't even mean to get a hit single (since it was an album campaign) and Rihanna's team desperately paid for it to be played at the top of every hour on major radio stations says a lot.

Whew! I think I'm gonna snatch the R8 album thread so I can update it accordingly.

Kworb pls. It's a lighthearted, fun, romantic song.

It didn't even go Top 10 in the US.

XO was a great song. It should have been bigger than Already Gone, I agree.

[Kworb]

FFS will be Rihanna's 9th song (as main artist) to sell 2 million in the US since Pepcé last accomplished it.

It was a Youtube hit flop.

But you make a good point. Now let's look at Shakiii her album sales.

Shakira - 750.000

So will this be Rihanna's fate? A lukewarm hit and dismal album sales?

[Shinning]

Beyoncé having to get drunk just to socialize with her I feel you Queen

[rihannafan]

That awkward moment when a lukewarm hit went #1 in more countries than any beyonce song.
