I admit I'd prefer Drunk On Love, Roc Me Out or Do Ya Thang before Cockiness becomes a single, but I wouldn't be mad at all if it happened. Tbh it fits with this era, the **** anthem B-day Cake and the bad girl thug image she has been rockin since December.....

Cockiness will make people Talk That Talk, and really isn't that what Rih is here for this era?

4. Birthday Cake
5. Where Have You Been

Whether you all like it or not.

Well she should let Where Have You Been clear out all her other single releases. Unlike what she did with WFL/YDO/TTT/BC she should let WHYB breathe and not try to throw a lot of singles out. Once WHYB's time is up she should just do Cockiness for Urban/Rhythmic and Farewell for Pop/HAC and close out this era. The main thing that killed this eras singles was messiness.

Also, Watch N Learn is one of the shittiest songs Rihanna has done off of GGGB, RR, Loud and TTT.

There will not be a B-day Cake video, it's already peaked. Even if it hadn't peaked, there wouldn't be one.

BC wasn't, the Navy thinks urban adds = a single but it was just another RM. Only difference is that RM was pulled because it flopped, BC was never pushed because Def Jam snubbed it - and for good reason.

I don't see it as any more of a single than TTT but it'll probably give her some light controversy because of the lyrics. I'd love to hear Do Ya Thing as a single, it's always given me Umbrella 2.0.

Might as well just end the era after Where Have You Been.
The best choices for a 6th single are Roc Me Out or Drunk On Love, but let's not push it.
If they are doing an urban single, it should be Watch N' Learn.

Let Where Have You Been smash for the summer. Then Do Ya Thing as final single for the era. Then Rihanna needs to take a GOOD LONG NICE PEACEFUL RELAXING BREAK and come back in 2/3 years with a (finally!) #1 album that her blood sweat and tears went into.

If they're smart they'd release it to Urban/Rhy immediately after "Where Have You Been"'s secured itself hit status. It's already had interest surrounding it, it would be silly to ignore that audience after how well Cake did.

Do Ya Thang or Watch N Learn after WHere have You Been. More likely Do Ya Thang. And then a ballad for Fall to close it out. I like Cockiness but maybe as an Urban only single with full support (i.e video and promo).

Fool In Love or Farewell. Fool In Love is my favorite so that. :celestial3:

Katy is on her 7th single from the same era. :toofunny2:
And she is still getting those #1s :alexz2:

Rihanna can do the same. She has radio and itunes on her side. As long as she works on her damn albums for longer..

I mean WFL and WHYB were the only potential smashes on the album. Rest of the songs are just an attempt to fill the album. Except DOL, TTT and FIL. Which are better than the rest. But the reason that shes flopping and not getting a #1 album is this. She needs to care about album songs not just singles.

No.

The way Talk That Talk (song) was treated angers me. It literally is a smash served up on a plate, but they released it at the same time as 2 features, with a previous monster single still doing relatively well and to top it off ZILCH promo in the US.

If they had just gone full steam ahead, filmed a ****ing music video, TTT would have at least gone top 10, maybe even top 5. And it's basically been chucked aside to rot with her other flops and I am just not here for that :tsk:

Yeah, I don't know why everyone is saying Drunk on Love/Roc Me Out need to be released, they are too generic and would definitely flop if this gem flopped. Watch & Learn is not single material either.

Releasing Cockiness is still a little risky. I mean she always releases 32 million singles and I'd love to see the video (:biblio:) but still. It'd be better to end the era after WHYB or end it with WAWL :alexz3:
