Truly a mess, and Def Jam better learn.

The urban image probably doesn't attract her potential album buyers...
Weak promo, too quick release, WFL doesn't represent the urban look of the album, second single is a weak generic YdO, Def Jam not shipping enough copies, Rihanna's audience aren't album buyers unlike Country/Rock/Rap audience, Rihanna still being on Loud Tour, WFL cutting Cheers - people thinking WFL is a part of Loud, people not knowing Rihanna has a new album out, the album is very short even though the deluxe edition has 14 tracks, 2 album covers - which are worse than Loud's cover (my opinion)......that all could affect her US sales...
Many mistakes this era. Her WW sales are good though.
