jarrylf Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Tis why I don't like it when aritsts release albums and then do tours almost immediatly, it's always messy with the singles, but it is what it is, ready for the next era now.

Kishi Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 The tour wasnt immediate...it was announced even before "Diamonds" was released, they just have not made videos a priority after "Stay". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I know, but it seems like once the tour started not just the videos, but the singles havent been a priority. True it shows Pour It Up's power that it did as great as it did without any promo or mainstream performances, but everything else just didn't get that much attention. It's typical "Tour is the priority" era, and it was built that way before the era started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"What Now" is cute, but it's following a bland song that basically went unnoticed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AND FINALLY someone else agrees Jump should've(/shoud, if the new era doesn't start until next year there could be another single) been a single, I think radio (pop & hip-hop would've loved it, like with Where Have You Been).

Kishi Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 We'll just have to see what happens. She's also been doing the fragrance, clothing line, and television show, so she has been very productive in the franchise area and make the big bucks. I wouldn't be surprised if the DWT out grossed the Loud Tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hotboy06 Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I'm hoping there isn't any new music!! She can finish touring and work on the album and release it next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you read the above posts, they are continuing with the Unapologetic album and no new music is being released until 2014. The "What Now" video is being shot in Thailand right now.

hotboy06 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 I've been listening to Unapologetic alot lately. I'ma bout to listen to Rated R. to see which one I really think stands out. Rated R. still has my heart..but UA is becoming my fave Rihsus Christ album from her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kishi Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Unapologetic cannot stand next to Rated R. While I love the energy of Unapologetic, the album is too lengthy. Rated R is more cohesive and sounds like a solid piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I truly think it's underrated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utopia Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Talk That Talk and Rated R >>>> I see no lies. UN is a good album the highs are HIGH but the lows are really low. The Now tracks and guetta bring the album a couple of notches down for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kishi Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Sooo...according to RihannaDaily.com - the director of the "Pour It Up" video is no longer attaching their name to the video because of creative differences. Apparently the video is expected to release soon. At this point, I personally don't care because the video was shot after the song peaked on radio, it was never one of my favorites, and it's now September.
