RihFenty20 Posted January 28, 2023 Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) How far the Navy has fallen to be having discussions about brand promotion. I hate it here so much. I miss 2005-2013 Rih. Edited January 28, 2023 by RihFenty20
Homebrand Posted January 28, 2023 Posted January 28, 2023 Not like there's much else to discuss She's about the have the biggest performance of her career and all we have to talk about is Savage Fenty SB merch

Come on now sis, I think we can all agree that everyone was gunning for LMU to be a bigger hit than what it is why else would they have released all the videos, playlist promo & radio deals?

They obviously liked this song and thought Rihanna would turn it into a smash funeral staple and a viral sound for sad TikTok videos. It’s not like she hasn’t smashed with a stripped back piano ballad before
Devin Posted January 28, 2023 Posted January 28, 2023 Most LMU promo is from Disney not Rih herself lol.
P!NK2LOVE Posted January 28, 2023 Posted January 28, 2023 7 years since ANTI I remember it so vividly. Never in a million years did I think it’d be her last album. Sad actually.
rihannafan Posted January 28, 2023 Posted January 28, 2023 Not "pregaming in savage fenty" She is sick
istan4badgalriri Posted January 28, 2023 Posted January 28, 2023 6 hours ago, Homebrand said: Fenty Beauty is nearly 6 years old now, its an established brand and doesn't purely rely of selling off Rihanna's name anymore (hence why she hasn't promoted it on her Instagram in ages, and the focus has obviously shifted Savage in recent years which is what my comment was primarily about). Rihanna obviously has to stay in the limelight to a certain extent to maintain her image / marketability, its really not a hard concept to grasp girl Then she could’ve just dropped an album and call it a day. She has more than enough material recorded over the past 6 years, if the only thing she cared about was to keep her name out there for her businesses, a new album would be less effort and more efficient than a SB halftime show. She used her brands to promote LMU on social media when it came out, it works both ways.

I miss 2005-2013 Rih. I'm sorry but ANTI was amazing. The ANTIdiary and getting peaks.... The music was perfect... I miss 2006-2018 Rih. These last 4 years is what's been pushing the envelope in terms of asking too much as stans. Even with that... She is at 8 albums+1 reissue in 18 years of career... So she is still at 1per every 2 years.... We were absolutely SPOILED back then... And now the drought is killing us
Paola Bracho Posted January 28, 2023 Posted January 28, 2023 Record a 10-12 songs album every 2 years (or every 1 year for the next 5 years) and film 2 videos for every one of them. It's going to take her 3-4 weeks max to do them. Release them and call it a day. That strategy made her who she is today and worked perfectly for Taylor Swift as well. Yea I'm being delusional but I can't imagine her focusing full time again on a proper era. I'm tired of her not being satisfied with the material which is obviously the reason she isn't releasing right now even a ****ing single.

I'm still waiting for that epic trailer like the previous year's one!
Maxxie Posted January 28, 2023 Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) I hope she surprises us all and drops the album/single in the next 3 weeks because I have been deluded into thinking it’s coming. I have lost all hope atp. why would she just drop her music career like this? She would not have FB or Savage without her music career. I think this is the tipping point and if LMU was the first/last we hear for a while then she will lose a lot a lot of fans. It was cute in 2019 but we are in 2023 and there are no signs of any music coming. I know people complain about Beyonce and her era but at least the hive have an era to be mad about. I will actively avoid any Fenty ventures out of spite :( Edited January 28, 2023 by Maxxie

Devin Posted January 28, 2023 Posted January 28, 2023 NFL Press Conference Feb 8-10 she should attend.

It’s not like she hasn’t smashed with a stripped back piano ballad before So, to summarize, your point is that, instead of releasing an obvious smash to "maintain her brand," she chose to release a literal mourning song, and then go into weeks of rehearsal for the Super Bowl?

I never made a correlation between LMU and her maintaining her brands? I just said they liked LMU for the movie and thought it would smash if Rihanna was on it. Especially after a 7 year hiatus. I mean they did everything for it to smash so… The other (unrelated) point I made was that SB will give all her businesses a push and that is probably one of the reasons why she’s agreed to do it. The other reasons would be that she wants to celebrate her musical career, and the “now or never” situation because she’s getting too comfortable being a mom. As she herself said.

It’s not a sign of a musical comeback. Disney did the same thing with LMU. And technically they’re not lying. Rihanna is back. For a night, on the stage, with her old hits. I’d love to be proven wrong tho and SB is right around the corner. If she’s preparing something we’ll know after that.
