Guys, you need to chill. See, it's not always about getting a hit. You can't just completely forgo artistic expression because you're scared of a flop. What if Rihanna wants to make a statement with the song?
Plus, the fact we don't know what's happening doesn't mean Rihanna/Def Jam don't know what to do. I strongly doubt they're running around like headless chickens trying to think of a solution to a problem which might not even exist anyway.
Patience is a virtue

Btw, what's with the Mandler hate? Not here for it

No song ever increases that much from a performance. It came from being out of the Top 1000 to top 35. Thats HUGE compared to Rockstar 101 which went from 1000-150 something.

I think it will smash for sure.

You can see on this page if you scroll down the increases after the performance, and Rihanna had a HUGE increase.

Rockstar 101 performance was no bueno tho.

Tbh, i don't want s&m to tumble down The charts just to clear The path for man down Yet.

but seriously, is Man Down gonna be an international single?? i always hear CKB on the radio here in Aus... and if it is international, then when do we get the video? before or after CKB????

i am sooo confused right now :/

[Vashetti]

So far I have requested Man Down on just over 60 radio stations. Keep requesting Navy:

And does anyone have a list of UK stations, because I'll work my way through them as well

From UKMIX by Giamma

I think CKB will be a better album seller than MD, especially internationally. Then with 3-4 worldwide smash hits (It think CKB will smash), MD and Cheers would keep the album selling. The concept is clear and has proved to be right as of late and that is even if your album is not selling THAT good, after 3-4 hit singles people can't help but give in and buy the album. Another important factor: promotion! Regardless of quality etc more display of your product to a bigger audience = more people probably buying it... Loud has potential to sell way more even before a re-release but she has to display her material. I mean she should be selling more weekly in UK but she hasn't promoted there in a while. I think she can do 2mi in UK alone but she has to promote. Finally I want Loud to sell as many copies as possible without a re-release so no need to rush it. She will be touring anyway and won't be able to promote it. So if we can sell +6mi by the time the re-release will be out it would be kinda pointless UNLESS they release an EP à la The Fame/The Fame Monster. If they do so (first quarter of 2012), I think LOUD+EP can do +10mi when it's all said and done. Note: the EP should have 3 smash hits/singles (AT LEAST 2!). Why the EP is a good idea? Besides selling more copies (and +10mi will be quite a statement!), she would be able to extend the tour, especially new legs in Europe and in America = more $$$. Not only that, it will also keep her catalogue albums and hit singles selling for longer (GGGB, Rated R). It should also give her more hits therefore more records, more digital sales... it will be hard to catch her up after that. I think it's the perfect deal.

Man Down - US
CKB - International

They are both the 4th single.
