American Oxygen must have just been sitting finished and Rihanna had a "lol yolo" moment while drunk and released it.

It's obvious this album is getting re-done.

But the American Oxygen release was planned long before FFS
I don't think that March Madness thing was a random decision.

If Rihanna herself would have wanted a smash hit she would have released a Sia written track or something 100% poppy or whatever smashes the charts right now. Like she did that SO SO many times and y'all know that As if another #1 is hard for her to get when all the anticipation was there. She is not Bey or Gaga and was always a single artist

ddd, not when the stripped back sound she did on FFS was hot all last year. Even BBHMM didn't do that well in a year where there have been multiple big urban hits.

4FS & BBHMM may have done well in your eyes. Clearly not to Rih's team.

As i just said before, Rih's team have seen worse.

But keep talking like you know what's going on in the boardroom.

You need receipts to see what's obvious? So the lead singles smashed and her label decided to hold back and re-record the whole album for fun?? Just because?

Death @ someone saying she could've gotten a degree

Was Beyoncé afraid to release too, then? We had Grown Woman, Standing On The Sun and I Been On (not actually released on iTunes, tho) and everyone claimed that she was scared to release and that she was scrapping every material she worked in. And then, the surprise release happened.

The folk sound was clearly not "all hot last year" you delusional ass. Of course we have artist like Ed Sheeran and Sam Smith but we still have a lot of electronic influenced songs and pure pop hits. Get real for once.

I'm not a Bey Stan nor do I really care about Bey but didn't she only release a I Been On? The other two are from commercials. She also wasn't teasing and promoting an album that just never came lol

So basically what you're saying is that Lorde, Sam Smith (who won 4 Grammy's this year), Lana, John Legend, Ed Sheeran, etc. (aka the most successful acts from 2014 on) didn't start a trend in popular music? Let me go sit my delusional ass somewhere then

You were definitely in a very similar situation as the Navy in 2013. Or should I show you all the "Beyonce is too afraid to release an album" articles and posts? So **** outta here you fake ass.

[Scene.]

How anyone can defend her during this era is beyond me.

I truly think this is what happened, and she's probably releasing it outside of tidal so she has to re record everything since they own the old material.
