No one is here for Nickelback's new single (thank the lord!) so I'd be bothered if they still snatch the #1 spot on the Billboard 200. I can totally see it happening though ... I expect around 200k opening for Rihanna, but I would totally be shocked if this album didn't have longevity. I'm almost imagining an era similar to GGGB this time around.
For me, it's not a matter of if, but when Rihanna gets that #1 album. It's going to happen for her some day.
doesn't matter, NB always sells well their debut week so we just have to hope for the best...
