CKB is FAR from a flop.

Man Down would be a flop if it wasnt just a US single.

They are not smash hits... but they did their thing... and Loud is still Top20 worldwide... which means that something did right?

Yes to big flops, deal with it...
No more flops new single in August ...

I love her and all, but these 2

If you want the old shiii then buy the old shii.

What I want is a newer version of it. Songs that give me the teas of my favorite Rihanna songs. I fail to see why that is a bad thing

1 Million gap? And she's doing this, with a much less success lead single (Well indeed)

Don't take it so literally it was used as a description or comparable sound of the new song. S+m 2.0 could mean something sexy and clubby like S+m

Would u rather I say I want rih's new song to have drums that go bang boom boom bang and then a giant gong sound?

So is anyone else up for Rihanna and Def Jam to be shady, and instead of an EP, releasing not one, but two rereleases?

Basically, since Rihanna seems set on the "same era, new music" thing, why not ensure Loud to be her best selling album, and one of the best selling albums in recent times? Since an EP will chart separately in the US, and therefore sales won't be combined, why not do a rerelease this Holiday season?

LoudR - released Nov 2011, include 4 new songs to carry out through Spring 2012.
Loud(est) - 2nd rerelease, released in Spring/Summer 2012, include 4 new songs, coincide with Battleship release

Yes, it's a bit shady, and may be a little desperate...but why not? There's no rules against having 2 rereleases, correct? Doing so will guarantee Loud to sell at least 3 mill in the US, and I'm sure push it to at least 8 million worldwide.

[RihMark]

Yeah...why the **** is she doing an EP. Loud will never do more than GGGB worldwide now .

OMG.

I am here for this. But the 2nd rerelease needs another title. Loudest is lame, sorry.

I'm for it. Someone send my resume to Def Jam.
