Not that I was shading you bro, not even a bit, but I just acknowledged the fact that us navys look around and have fun with other artists during those messy, hard and especially "busy" times.
Maybe for some people stanning for Rihanna has no meaning.
I, for one, could never just drop a stan card. Like it's not you signed up some acts.
There are so many memories, so many great times. How am I supposed to just ”drop” that?
So yeah, I will never stop loving Rih, she can flop into oblivion and she could release the shittiest music ever and I wouldn't care. There's a connection here.
But I'm sleep
Really hope she doesn't drop this album in a vacuum...she needs to give herself a good 2-3 week runway where she lines up as much promo as she can get. Release another single, release the album tracklist and do a countdown in which she releases info/something about the album everyday. SOMETHING to heighten the anticipation and keep the fans involved. I would love it if she gave us a behind the scenes look into the making of the album....something extensive like 45min-1 hour and she could include it in the album packaging. When she releases the tracklist, it should be in braille so that fans can decode it and that will make things a lot more interactive than they have been
