Rihanna doesn't spend her days on atrl like we do. Her lingo is not exactly the same one, we can only assume what she means by "same era, new music". For all we know this could have just meant that Cheers will become a single before she moves. And plans for a re-release that previously could have existed could have been scrapped as well. I'd rather trusts MTV saying that this is in fact her sixth album and it looks like it's coming this Fall or Winter already.

Finally someone with sense comments but it think LOUD will last a bit longer. At least till the end of the year without any EPs/etc. I think the new album's single would be released anywhere from Late December to the beginning of February. I'm excited for new music but at the same time i want her to take her time releasing & prepping this one.
I have really high hopes for this album tbh. I know that there's a decent chance I'll be disappointed again but I think she has the potential to really bring it this time, Rated R level quality but more successfull than that.
I'm so confused Someone from her team should really confirm whether its an album or an EP. I'm here for new music though. Rihanna's songs are the catchiest and most infectious. Definitely here for a Rated R/Loud album!
Probably....she needs to sit her ass down for a year or a half.....she's like a factory.
but still....i liked a lot of songs from her last albums...like Photographs, Rehab, Man Down, OG, WMN and i'm actually looking forward to new material
i want island influences/urban influences on this record (more of them at least...loud was fun and all but I don't need anymore ***** poppers i want body rollers)
I rather her bring out an EP Or re-release and then take a year break promote Battleship and Then bring out the 6th album in 2013 and then she can continue with the 7th 2014 she needs a break we can't gag to much she will become overworked her voice will become strained I'm just not here for the 6th album Loud has sold 5million what is the rush No Shade I'm not a big fan of loud but if it's doing good and still selling let it sell even try get it to sell 10million why do we always rush rush ..
duet with Britney please! 
MTV is a mess lately so I wouldn't be surprised if they are wrong again.
