7 months of talk before the deal was actually sealed?

I think that's pretty much why this era is such a mess ...
Rih it wasn't worth it.

Did ya'll even read the post I quoted? Or ya'll just tryna be upseT for NO reason?

Of course. Cause every deal she gets is a derivative of what Jay & co have already gotten.

I just pointed out this obvious fact when someone on the first page said it was a play out of "Jay-Z's playbook. " My response was "Well yea, of course...cause she's part of the company".

If anything I was defending her.

This is a pretty bad move on her part. Basically Rihanna isn't going to make any money off this era because it'll all go back to Samsung so they'll recoup their money. Rihanna doesn't make that much money from her music to begin with (bc she doesn't write) so they're going to funnel money from the one place she can make money, the tour.

The ignorance!!!

Okay first of all....

just from streaming alone the songs she has released so far already account 7M $. If you add the sales (7M copies @1.29$ = 9M $)

She has already moved 16M $ with the first 3 'not-so-big' hits from the album....

WTF are you talking about?

Good for her. Jay z is really great business man.

Adele's one was only for her tour No it's not.

Rih...what're you doing, gurl!? Not Samsung....stupid Tidal.

[Drayb]

Woohoo. . .got my Note 5 ready and waiting. Rih stays winning. . . laskfhsdifubvgusbd

[Mariano]

Not some people thinking that Jay Z getting 5M check for himself, while giving 1M copies of his album is the same type of deal like Rihanna's album and tour being sponsored 20M

Rihanna is NOT getting those 20M for herself It's just that instead of her label and her paying for everything, SAMSUNG will pay for everything

[chris1991]

Eh

[JustActinUP]

Dead @ some of the navy claiming this the biggest deal ever. Not a fat chance
Her most of deals are always derivatives of Jay-Z's. This just a sponsor deal, to cover album and tour.
