And they're not giving us nothing new. But the album at the end of this along with the rest of the world.
What's the point of this nonsense but stalling time?

Whether you or I like this promo does not matter.
What matters is whether its gone viral.
It has not. It has gone ANTi-viral.
Rih has 50 million twitter followers. Her keyholder has 7000.
The promo is a shocking flop.
She has colossally misjudged the current adele-ish market with this gaga-ish nonsense.
(whatever excitement there is so far is being generated by paid social-media perfomers)
************************************************** *************
BUT when the time comes (probably Jan 1)
Samsung will still distribute five+ million essentially free copies
Free copies that will count as sales as far is Billboard is concerned
(thanks to hardball negotiations)
THEREFORE
A huge number one album, probably the biggest of 2016
plus a huge controversy about this newly sanctioned method of sponsored distribution
************************************************** ***************
In other words, all the "secrets" that some have labored for
for over a month
when complete, will be available to everyone else a few hours later
(and the reward will be a free album)
************************************************** ****************
No matter, I will still love every single track (and especially AO).
Since I very much like Rih's "difficult" music, this album will be perfect for me.
I may not love her marketing currently, but for me her music is the thing.
but omg I think they might open #R4 tonight tbh I have a feeling
But I mean it's not like Anti is gonna come if we don't follow this **** so why not? Nothing else to do.
