Yeah songs fall pretty hard when they get removed from TTH (just like they increase a lot when they're added), the same happened with Believe It

I expected worse actually

Just a couple of weeks until the Oscars. So hopefully it can hold nicely and then maybe come back to TTH

Same old mistakes with tame impala themselves featured 

 

Could have been singles tbh. 

 

Anything I'd take too... But tbh there are albums that deserve a rebumb from her apart from ANTI and have much bigger singles that weren't released... 

 

Even a re-release of ANTI with the 3 droplets that she left out in the beginning with JUST ONE NEW SONG would do it for me. 🤣

Same!! All the songs you listed deserve to have their moment of glory.

 

I would've added Love on the Brain with a video. I remember years ago, there were rumors flying around that she supposedly filmed the video in Paris but then it got scrapped. 

 

Imagine a video of her holding hands with ASAP Rocky, near the Eiffel Tower and the Seine, just walking around the empty streets of Paris at night, or maybe visiting stores at avenue Montaigne. A sort of Fashion Killa 2.0 but make it more mature. That would be a moment. 

 

I think she really succeded in making a timeless album. As you said, she could easily re-release it with a couple of new songs. SZA did it for CTRL's fifth birthday so it wouldn't be shocking, even 7 years after.

It's not amnesia. That person is just nasty, mean-spirited, and desperate for attention. She thinks posting negatively about Rihanna and Asap will increase her engagement.

The video Rihanna filmed in Paris was released. And it was Goodnight Gotham. 😅

Nah she just constantly hates on Rih because her followers eat it up. She's a hater.

 

She used to be one of those "where is the album, Rih???" people until she got that following tho

I’m not talking about Goodnight Gotham, I was there when she shot the video btw. It was crazy!!
 

About LOTB, it was rumored to be another video from what I’ve read. But I’m talking about some old tweets!! I’m probably wrong.

Imagine LMU goes #1 on Billboard after the performance 

Atrl would go down for a couple of days

I feel that if the performance is followed by a win, a #1 is almost a given.

 

EDIT: Scratch that! Miley is releasing that week.

Edited February 25, 20233 yr by Paola Bracho

I'm not waiting for a number one and the Oscar win. But for sure she will do an amazing live. It's ballad where she shine more always. 

 

And is nice that haters forgotten about her ballads performances, because she will surprise again. 

 

Can't wait. I will be nervous the same way I was at SB. I always support LMU and enjoy of her ballads. Also her first Oscar's appearance, that make it even more interesting.

Well... No. 

 

I mean it has to be something absolutely out of this world. Or make something to be everywhere for that to happen. 

 

I don't even think she is winning... 

 

But tbh a nice boost would be more than fine with me. 

 

It is already closing to 20 weeks in the charts... So that is more than enough in my books. 

i mean what could she do wrong with the flat & monoton LMU?

Did she? Source? I don’t recall her talking about it 

 

But yes I would of included it over JJ, Close To You, Pose, GG…   

I will try to find it...but it was in 2015 during the maddening wait for R8. Around the same time as her V Magazine interview where she says "Dude, I'm in love with my interludes"

 

I remember her explicitly discussing JFI in a random short interview, with an image of her in a white-tee with some generic word on the front like "peace" or "love" and her hair is up. 

 

My memory may be playing tricks on me tho, but I feel correct! Does anyone remember this? Feel free to clock me...

 

Pose got her redemption at the SB, but GG will always be a letdown

 

I'm a sap, so  Close To You gets her flowers

 

JJ needed its James Fauntleroy verse...

Defo don’t think she’s winning the Oscar, but so happy she’s performing n we’ll probs end up with another iconic performance. Really hope it’s live  
 

One thing I love about how good her Super Bowl performance was is that now I believe it’ll probs be her most iconic performance ever. Whenever people tried to say she doesn’t have an iconic performance, this is like the ultimate nail in the coffin.

 

I think her performance at the Oscars could be quite iconic also, esp if she serves with a sexy classy pregnant look

Yes, it was her interview for NME in Sep 2015 where she named LOTB, Higher, Just Feel It as some of the "key tracks" from R8

But for some reason that part of the interview was removed from the article: https://www.nme.com/features/rihanna-exclusive-interview-i-break-the-rules-even-when-i-dont-intend-to-756937

Omg, I knew it...!

 

The mystery around why Just feel it was done so wrong keeps me up at night

Yes  it's weird she didn't keep it on the tracklist, I feel like she replaced it with Yeah I Said It

I hope the Oscars performance is a huge highlight. Not so it could just boost LMU but open doors to her doing more in the film industry. I would die if she did an entire Caribbean theme soundtrack. 
 

Justice for Just Feel It, it’s sooooooo good. Legit holy grail experimental R&B Rihanna I love it so much, wish it was on Spotify  

 

What are people’s thoughts on the vinyl reissues?? I’m good with MOTS, AGLM, Rated R, Loud and Anti. But I wish GGGB was the reloaded version and that TTT was the deluxe with the b/w CD packaging cus that would slay as a vinyl trifold. Also wish that they had just included Half of Me on Unapologetic and corrected Fresh off the Runway to Phresh Out.

Great increase yesterday even tho there were so many new releases. I believe that LMU was one of the few songs that fell on total streams. 

 

Also seems like she is stabilizing at +26M... That is literally DOUBLE was she was making pre-SB 😍😍😍

Most watched SB full halftime shows on NFL YouTube page:

 

#1 Shakira/JLo (274M)

#2 Dr. Dre/Snoop Dogg/Eminem/Mary J. Blige/Kendrick Lamar/50 Cent (172M)

#3 Coldplay/Beyoncé/Bruno Mars (119M)

#4 Rihanna (83M)

#5 Katy Perry (82M)

#6 Gaga (76M)

#7 The Weeknd (57M)

#8 Maroon 5 (20M)

#9 Justin Timberlake (18M)

Rih coming for #3 within a few weeks time surely.

 

Is #2 out of the question? #1 will be impossible since YouTube has severely decline in recent years and Shakira / J Balvin and Bad Bunny are all juggernauts on YouTube, but at least she is miles ahead of the others
