Even if ANTi flops I highly doubt that she will go back to yearly releases.
Plus isn't it obviously that Rihanna is done with pop/dance songs? Whilst it's my least favourite genre that Rihanna performs ;urban/rap/hip hop is the lane she wants to develop and explore in.
She's got so many endorsements and business projects now. She's probably making 10X more money from all of them then she would make by releasing singles and albums.
Rihanna could easily make another pop album, and get more #1 singles and break more records. But it's obvious for now at least that she doesn't really care about commercial success. Else she wouldn't be making songs like FourFive, BBHMM, American Oxygen.
Whilst I respect that Rihanna believes those songs are timeless, I have to disagree the three songs released this year will sound horrible in a couple of years. But that's just my opinion, I am really eager to know though if the songs that were 'soulful, timeless and big and real' made the cut. However I am fully expecting ANTi to be full of urban, rap and hip hop influences.
However whatever the case, I just hope the music is to a high quality.
But what we have all got to remember is that Rihanna can't always be on top, the music industry is fickle and when the GP and radio have had enough of you then you're over. (At least sales wise and commercially)
It happens to the best of artists, you can only be on top for so long.
I do believe Rihanna reached her peak commercially with LOUD, however she's not reached her peak has an artist yet.

I don't think Rih is done releasing yearly, yeah, she might not release R9 and R10 in 2017 and 2018, but she'll do it in the future. Plus, she did release Home in this year and Anti will get released next year, so, she kinda didn't stop the yearly releases.
Again, the word "timeless" was obviously some random answer she threw out there and you guys took it so seriously.

You guys need to stop making up these random dates, you're just setting yourself up for disappointment again. Sia says she's still scouting for songs and we've seen pictures of her still in the studio.. just assume the album isn't coming until the week of the tour and be pleasantly surprised if it drops earlier
In the terms and conditions Samsung gave me they listed December 31st as the cutoff date for the Sweepstakes for AntiDiary. Its not crazy to assume that by New Years Eve we'll be at the last room.
Exactly. If ANTI comes out in Jan/Feb and it flops hard. I wouldn't be shocked at another album Summer 2017 or Fall. Rihanna may be a businesswoman and have multiple projects but lets not forget that her main job is a Pop star.

Well, the album won't magically appear in Room 8.... unless she's gonna drop it exclusively via Samsung/Tidal whatever and then in stores 1 week later. Cause she's gotta announce the physical CD release 1 week beforehand (at the very least). I'll be happy if she announces the release date when R8 unlocks.
You say it's my fault, OK I get it
You ain't pick up your calls, I'm like forget it
See you put up your wall, you know you did it,
The rise and the fall, just admit it
You say it's my fault, OK I get it
You ain't answer your calls, I'm like forget it
It's the the rise and the fall
It's the the rise and the fall
And you could've had it all
