I haven't been this pressed for so long.

Who would have thought my own fave is the reason.

Why? Because I prefer Man Down over CKB? When was the last time Rihanna released something like Man Down? When was the last time ANY POPSTAR took a huge risk and release something like Man Down? I'm waiting.

The problem now is if MD wins this poll, they gonna do a double release. They have confirmed CKB for international release and even if MD wins the poll for international single, there's no way they gonna change that. However, if MD wins the North America poll, it's almost certain a dual release will be set - since that's their plan in the 1st place.

The issue now is to get CKB to win the North America poll. Rihanna does listen to RD, so we gotta get it to win.

I feel like I was Rihanna's first fan since 2005, I've stuck by her side, praising her...while some of y'all just got into her. ****, I thought Pon De Replay was getting Grammy nods.

LMAO at the latter part. I Was a fan since the start to, but at that time I was young and didn't know what a stan was and stuff.

There's a reason for that.

A risk isn't a good thing if the risk doesn't pan out.

I refuse.

I will not support the idiocy of an international popstar basing her next career move off of a fansite's poll choice.

@the only one, yes that wouldnt make sense for that campaign and not release CKB.

But youre also not saying the whole story behind the Rated R campaign. Def jam wanted to pull the plug because of paltry album sales. Rihanna was barely scrapping 1.5 million WW sold around the hard release. if she was standing at 3Million+ sold, trust and believe a song peaking at #8 would mean ****.

Rihanna is about to cross 4 million sold and is having the best eras of her life.. Def Jam aint pullin the plug on nada.

A risk after 3 SMASHES is a good thing to make. It's a 4th single.

If CKB & Man Down are successes, Cheers will be a single you'll see ...

[fabian_phipps]

Huh, why is everyone saying that 'Cheers' won't be a single?

RD represents the voice of Navy - at least that's what she thinks. Yeah, that's why.

I can't wait till I hear California King Bed over here on Radio. I've heard it once already here in the UK but it was only because I texted in about 30 times and it wasn't set as a single yet.

So none of ya'll like taking risks?

It depends on when is the re-release. But if they decided to release another single after CKB/MD before the rerelease, then Cheers is the one. If not, then it can stay as an album track.

[Deemy]

I have heard from a source that the single has already been chosen.

CKB and Man Down will get the Dont Stop The Music/Hate That i Love You treatment.

Man Down will now be the 4th single going for Adds in May while CKB goes overseas and then they will switch.

There's nothing we can do now. Lets just turn our attention to man Down which seems to already doing fantastic on radio. She needs a multiformat hit it seems.

The Country version of CKB will be sent to Country radio though. The music video for the song will be used in the Commercial but the commercial will be more be based overseas hence why they choose to launch the single there first.
