because it's a forum where I'm allowed to give my opinion and nowhere does it say it's an appreciation thread.
I gave my opinion, she's not talented, she is extremely overplayed and her voice is whiny.
However, I did compliment her by saying she's had some good songs, so it's not like I just posted to say 'OMFG RIHANNA'S A ****ING SLAG I HATE THAT BITCH'? I had reasoning :]

Just for those who have not seen? what do you think then? Do you think she should take him back? I don't. I think she should move on. Find a new man

Am just looking for some new Album news =]

[MrGaryy]

I think they are both talentless twats - though in varying degrees - and need to just go away.

Some Album news =]



After months of drama surrounding the altercation between Rihanna and Chris Brown, the singer is getting back to business and heading into the studio to work on her latest album. The new album is said to have a "techno" sound, according to People.

"It will be the album to really give her an identity musically," a source said. "It's very techno-based this time around."

Among the top performers reportedly lending their sound to her new album are Justin Timberlake, Kanye West, Jay-Z, Pharrell Williams and Soulja Boy.

The album will also feature duets, one of which was supposed to be sung with Chris Brown before the altercation that landed the former couple on tabloid covers for months. On June 22, Brown pleaded guilty to hitting her after a pre-Grammy's party in February.

The R&B singer released a video earlier this week publicly apologizing for the incident.

"What I did was inexcusable ... I am very sad and very ashamed of what I've done," Brown said. "I have told Rihanna countless times, and I'm telling you today, that I am truly, truly sorry that I wasn't able to handle the situation differently and better ... I can only ask and pray that you forgive me, please."


I cannot wait! I hope it has a few ballads and that she doesn't change her sound too much though

""The plea works in his favor, because it takes the responsibility for his punishment out of his hands," New York radio personality Miss Info told MTV News. "He can 'pay his debt' now — no more endless self-flagellation. A judge has given him a sentence, and he will follow it, gladly take that, and then he can say he deserves to move on, which is exactly what his lawyer said after the verdict. And the public will have an easier time moving on as well. I think it's good that he didn't plead no contest and that he did plead guilty. That says: 'I'm not copping a plea. I'm admitting I was wrong.' "

Is the poor lad worried about the effects this will have on his career? I'm afraid it doesn't wash with me.

I LOVE HER!



She is still my favourite singer...

I don't think it will effect his career drastically really. I just think that Rihanna will have hers boosted. Not that she needs it really, she IS Mainstream music in a way. She is always garunteed a top 10 hit, whatever she releases

THE WAIT IS OVA!!! RIHANNA’s NEW ALBUM – RATED R – HITS MONDAY, NOV. 23rd
“Russian Roulette,” first new single pick –written by Ne-Yo – launches worldwide Oct. 20th on radio and on official Rihanna website.
“Russian Roulette” video to premiere on ABC-TV.
Long-awaited follow-up to 2007’s worldwide multi-platinum Good Girl Gone Bad.
(October 20, 2009 – New York, NY) The wait is ova – for one of the most hotly anticipated new albums in recent history, as multi-platinum, award-winning Def Jam recording artist Rihanna announces the completion of her fourth original studio album, Rated R, scheduled to arrive in the physical and digital marketplace on Monday, November 23rd.
Rated R’s first single pick, “Russian Roulette” will be launched at 11:23am EST on October 20th worldwide on http://rihannanow.com. The “Russian Roulette” video, directed by Anthony Mandler, will premiere in prime-time on ABC.
“Russian Roulette” was written and produced by fellow Def Jam artist Ne-Yo, whose long track record with Rihanna includes the #1 hit “Unfaithful” (2006, from A Girl Like Me), their Top 10 duet “Hate That I Love You” (2007, from Good Girl Gone Bad), and #1 pop/ #1 R&B “Take A Bow” (2008, from Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded). In addition to Ne-Yo, other producers and writers on Rihanna’s new album include the team of The-Dream and Tricky Stewart, Chase & Status, Stargate, Justin Timberlake and more.
Rated R is the long-awaited follow-up to Good Girl Gone Bad (May 2007), which contained the non-stop string of hit singles that began with the MTV VMA and Grammy Award-winning global #1 hit “Umbrella” (featuring Jay-Z), then “Shut Up and Drive,” “Hate That I Love You” (featur ing Ne-Yo), and “Don’t Stop the Music.” Good Girl Gone Bad spent 98 total weeks on the Soundscan chart, earned cumulative sales of more than 36-times platinum in at least 20 territories around the world, and spun off the CD+DVD package Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded (January 2009) – which continued the string of hits with the #1 “Take A Bow,” and the #1 “Disturbia.”
Good Girl Gone Bad was the third album release in less than two years by the 21-year old Barbados native Rihanna. It followed-up 2006’s RIAA platinum A Girl Like Me, which contained the back-to-back hits, “S.O.S.” and “Unfaithful”; and her RIAA gold debut from 2005, Music Of the Sun, featuring the world-wide smash, “Pon De Replay.”
