Backing Down or Thinking Smart?

Rihanna had planned on releasing her currently untitiled fourth studio album this spring, the same day as the re-release of Beyonce's "I Am...Sasha Fierce", now the word is Rihanna is holding back on the disc until the 4th Quarter of 2009. Rihanna just released her 8th single from "Good Girl Gone Bad" an album she's been actively promoting for almost 2 year, and many believed releasing an album this spring would've been career injuring overkill. Many will see Rihanna pushing back her disc as fear of Beyonce while others will take this as Rihanna playing it smart. Thoughts?

    I feel sorry for this young singer. She seems to spend an awful lot of time and money trying to impress the masses. She is very limited singing wise, and she is being mishandled. Someone needs to talk to her about upping her game in terms of all the trendy stuff she wears. Unless she is getting those clothes free, she is waisting an awful lot of money trying to impress.

    i like Rihanna, but she pales talent-wise in comparison to the ranks of Bey, alicia keys, jennifer hudson and even jazmine sullivan. i here people talk about she has so much swag and pesonalitly. but the way i feel about the “swag movement”, i’m like F___ Swag!!! this is some total bull ish, and it is polluting REAL music. but i don’t blame these “artists”, they are getting their hustle on. i blame the folks that support this crap. you have people talking about “i like they music because they are real” but in reality, you don’t know how these folks are, so it’s no reason to support these folks music. i wish folks would support music due to the fact that the music is GOOD. you have artists that come out with reality tv shows before they come out with an album. that’s some straight up bull!!! i’m getting tired of it. i swear, when i get some money, i gonna get a record label, and sign some real musicians and produce some REAL music, becuase this recycled bullsh– is played. rihanna is not original, plies is not original, keyshia cole is not original, day 26, brutha, all of these wack ass artists aren’t doing anything new, despite what people say.

    People keep saying that this girl has no talent, yet she has sold more singles and made more money than most if not all of you. She has a unique voice and can sing. She has no stage presence though. I ain’t mad at her game and wish others would stop hating on her too. It gets old, just like the comparisons to Beyonce, who by the way, I love but absolutely hate this GARBAGE of a new CD she has out.

    Wow the Rihanna stans are out and in full effect too. I would like to know where all these “faithful supporters” were back in ‘05 and ‘06 when her ass was rocking that long ass brown weave, a sequined top, and baggy jeans when nobody gave a damn about that Pon De Replay shit. She’s a singles artist and people are only giving her props because of ONE album after she’s released THREE. If it wasn’t for The Dream, Ne-Yo, Timbaland (and all the other people who wrote on GGGB), Rihanna’s career would’ve been done a long ass time ago. Oh, let’s not forget her new stylist! Because her hair and clothes were ridiculous back then. Hell they still are. . . She rocks everything straight off the fuckin’ runway anyway. Def Jam better start a talent search or somethin because her ass is gonna be over soon. NEXT!

    P.S. Why the fuck does she wear these costumes that have nothing to do with the damn performance? All the lights, fire, and prostitute getup is a way to distract us from the screeching and howling she calls singing I guess. Sad times. SMH

    Her type of singing is different from every other girl that comes out, When you hear her you know it’s her compared to every other black female singer on the scene right now. Go on Girl

    I agree, Rihanna in MY OPINION, can not sing or dance very well. If it weren’t for her looks, she wouldn’t be getting 1/4 of the hype she gets now. I’ve seen the girl perform, and I was only mildly amused at best; more like bored. Yes, she is gorgeous, in most pix, but that’s as far as it goes for me.

    Those of you calling her a trendsetter, should perhaps check out FeFe Dobson’s style before using that word so loosely.

    THE REAL QUESTION IS WHY IS BEYONCE RE-RELEASING SOOOOO SOON???????????? i Thought she was the hottest chick in the game? So what's with re-releasing the flop cd so soooonnn. Was that her plan the same way she presold her Boring Day cd when LEToya Luckett released her cd and STILL WENT #1???

    Rihanna got the market on lockdown. She's getting invited to prestigious events and to do promotional concerts, not Beyonce. Rihanna has stolen Beyonce's shine and no Beyonce has something to prove. LMAOOOOOO

    RIhanna's music is still going strong. She doesn't need to release a cd. She can afford to wait until Christmas for those huge sales!!!!

    FeFe Dobson is doing what? Please save that petty Beyonce stan jealousy. Janet and Madonna can't sing but they have that something special. The media is loving Rihanna they are embracing her and blowing her up. Beyonce overstayed her welcome and it's time for her to relocate to Europe. Thank you! Go Rihanna....make them mad. Make them jealous. You are the #1 artist killing it!

    Beyonce is so hot why does she lie about the number of grammies she's won, the number of albums sold? She uses DC's data to build herself up. The truth is, Rihanna has outsold Beyonce. Women lie, men lie, numbers don't lie!!!!!!!!

    Beyonce is now chasing Rihanna. Beyonce is wearing black outfits that do nothing for her grandma body. The public wants someone young and fresh. Beyonce's age is showing which makes singing stupid songs like SL look even more ridiculous!!! Get her Rihanna!!!!
