ANTI DOESNT NEED A RE-RELEASE. ITS GREAT ON ITS OWN.
I honestly wouldn't mind if rih took another big break after ANTi to take some acting lessons to star in major movies, just to keep getting bigger in the acting area too, but let's see will she be good or bad in Valerian
I think she'll give us one last project before she leaves us and has a baby (not saying she's retiring or anything but it'll probably be a while before she comes back). Like an album with no tour or promotion nnn.
Anyways, the only Rih song I've been listening to is KIB because I miss Prince so much
So you want her to take another 4 year break from music?
I'm expecting a new album November 2017 latest
If it meant we would get another album as good as Anti hell yeah, but I doubt she'd be gone for 4 years. I see nothing wrong with the usual 2 year break. (2018)
But hey she'll do whatever she wants in the end soooo

But who is the daddy? I see Rih giving us one more album really soon and after that letting go of music for a while and concentrating on acting and fashion.
This article is exactly how I feel about Rih and her videos. The outrage over her showing her nipples is so transparent. So what if restricted videos lower her views, she's not dressed like that in a ploy to get anyones attention. Thats just how Rih is, she's true to herself and happens to hate wearing bras.
If You're Offended By Rihanna's Nudity You're Missing The Point
Quote:
Society responds favourably to the Dollys who conform to gender role expectations, but not so much to the Rihannas.
Earlier this year, Rihanna dropped her eighth studio album ANTI -- she is currently on world tour whilst unleashing videos back to back, leaving society to go bonkers over the perpetual nudity showcased in her work.
The latest video, titled Needed Me, showcases Rihanna wearing a sheer ensemble with just a thong, allowing her double lattes to hang free and totally shying away from the princess image.
Lyrically she doesn't need any saving from a prince on his white horse, because she has already set a record on Billboard Hot 100 that surpassed The Beatles for second-longest cumulative weeks at No. 1 with her song "Work," featuring Drake.
The uproar over the use of nudity in her latest video displays the disparity between male and female privileges -- especially when it comes to using nudity as an art form. The responses are cockamamie, considering that Adam Levine can be butt naked in his song "This Summer's Gonna Hurt Like A Motherf****r," and still get away with it accompanied by an applause.
Rihanna's bra-less, erotica-thriller fuelled videos are deconstructing social norms that place gender limitations on how women choose to express their sexual liberty, or how they should expand it or simply own it.
"I got to do things my own way, darling. Will you ever let me? Will you ever respect me?" Rihanna asks in the opening track of ANTI "Consideration."
Rihanna's videos also reaffirm the pressures of living in a male-driven society that demands a continuous supply of sex so that the male spectacle feeds off pleasures derived from objectifying women.
If you didn't understand her concept, she is directing a metaphorical bullet towards the patriarchal structure that is oppressive to women. She is clearly opposing this dominance over the female, and she is using the same vices men use to extenuate their power, including money, drugs and strippers -- and she ain't apologetic.
Rihanna is combating the video vixen image that has been perpetuated in the mainstream hip-hop and R&B genres, in which black, sexually charged females have been successfully commodified since the 1990s. Rihanna is hypersexualized in her video, but unlike video vixens, Rihanna has agency of her body and looks comfortable in her skin.
The Harmony Korine-directed clip shows how far the Barbadian beauty is pushing the envelope in regards to owning her nudity and not conforming to gender social constructs.
If Rihanna chooses to use her body to refuse conformity, so be it. If you haven't yet figured out her deviance -- she is demolishing sexual boundaries, so it's probably time you stop bickering about her and get with the program.
This article is exactly how I feel about Rih and her videos. The outrage over her showing her nipples is so transparent.

that song didn't deserve that kind of floppage
