It's not concrete, but didn't she Snap a picture of her car stereo with the word "finished" as the tagline? Unless she was discussing BBHMM being finalized, but I thought it was after that in April or something?

Or just a finished recording session or a song? She likes to play games...

We all thought she finished the album but maybe she finished a song?

It's easy to imagine anything because of the lack of info but all she's ever said that can be held against her is that she said her album was coming "soon" in March. Even then, "soon" is a vague word.

And tbh maybe she wanted to have a long promo campaing like Kanye's MBFTF or Drake's Nothing Was The Same.

Nnnn, you're right. Rihanna when she tweets the words "new" or "coming soon" when it's really about socks.

Which even that, maybe we can't even fault her for. Sounds like a lot of behind-the-scenes trouble, even if we didn't have an official album name or date. How I see it is it's odd to release a lead single in January and actively plan a release in the fall (if not summer of 2016 ). She ain't Nicki.

I included the "recepits" in my last post, go and look for yourself.

" We have made every album together since #GoodGirlGoneBad... #R8"

Could be just about the process. Doesn't mean they wrapped things up.

Then later on Jimmy Kimmel show she said the album was done, and she wanted to release it ASAP..

She said it's coming soon, she doesn't have a date yet and she wants it out now. Still not done, for sure.

Then the home interviews where she said the album was DONE and she described the sound of the album, and that there's no features on the album apart from Kanye and Paul.. then a few weeks later in (V Magazine?) she talked about the interludes on the album and she's in love with them..

Not sure which interview you're referring to, but please, provide it, so it's settled. The rest doesn't prove why the album couldn't still be unfinished.

R8 is going to be one of her best, I can feel it

I just need Higher in my life.

It would be cool if Rih coordinated the album release with the peak of her Puma campaign. I keep seeing this theory and it's very MikeFenty. Loves it.

Idk how many times we have to say that "soon" means absolutely nothing, and that Rih just says the answer people want to hear. She has never given a definitive tittle, track list, release schedule, genre, or release date of this album and that was for a reason. Obviously something was coming due to the joint tour with Kanye, but everything got messed up once it was canceled. Making yourself miserable with theories does nothing to make R8 come faster

All you little basics trying to shade me... The album photoshoot took place in December 2014 then Rihanna confirmed herself the album was finished last week of February when she posted the Higher snippet and said " We have made every album together since #GoodGirlGoneBad... #R8" Then later on Jimmy Kimmel show she said the album was done, and she wanted to release it ASAP.. Then the home interviews where she said the album was DONE and she described the sound of the album, and that there's no features on the album apart from Kanye and Paul.. then a few weeks later in (V Magazine?) she talked about the interludes on the album and she's in love with them..

So no Owllie I don't work behind the scenes, I've just done my research... maybe you should do the same.

And there you have it

I do feel like at least half of the album was scrapped, mainly because of how she said a few times the album was done.. talked about the sound of the album.. how there's no features this time apart from the Kanye and Paul track.. how she talked about the interludes etc. Then the middle of March she started being spotted going back to the recording studio (Probably when BBHMM was recorded) also wasn't she spotted last week going to a recording studio?.. so it's likely that she's still recording.

Then where is it?!

I see you're really doing well in English class. What's the point of being so pessimistic about the album ALL the time?

yes, I'm an A- in English class, thanks for noticing

I'm also not being a pessimistic about the album, I'm just PRESSED that she doesn't give the songs the attention they deserve.

have y'all lost hope on R8 being released this year?

almost, it just feels too much like 2014 again.

It's cute, but it doesn't really look good on her

Imagine Rih in pirates of the caribbean. I think that'd be her perfect role.

Don't know, just say Happy Little Pill so assumed. Or am I thinking of Trevor Moran? Is that a band?
