zzmyth Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 Since it's a ballad (allegedly) Imma say 3M US and 7M WW
RihFenty20 Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 I've never seen a group of people underestimate their fav so much, I'm almost convinced that you all secretly hate her. Rihanna is not a regular B*tch. especially when it comes to streams. Rihanna did 3B USA streams in 2016 (8 years ago in early streaming era) and was the number two act overall. Only behind Drake. Her 2016 USA streams would be enough to place her near the top 10 in 2022 (8 Years later). Streaming has grown exponentially since then. You guys are beginning to piss me off. Our fav is not regular, stop pretending that she is.

Our fav is not regular, stop pretending that she is. Let's be honest here. It's a ballad from a OST. Yes the hype is there. Yes it's Rih. But we dont really know what will come. In an ideal world she would make Easy On Me debut numbers.... But we don't know. Maybe she doesn't. And thats also OK. All I know is I'm happy and excited and I'm setting myself to a halfway expectations so that I can be surprised for good and enjoy the success. And not be totally bummed by a bad number.

And not be totally bummed by a bad number. This isn't a regular soundtrack either. This is tribute to Chadwick, it is attached to the biggest movie (or 2nd biggest since Top Gun stomped) of the year. The first Black Panther Soundtrack stomped on its own accord. So it not only has hype from the previously successful project, but also has one of the biggest names in music doing it and it's her comeback after years. Rihanna isn't one of the most streamed acts everyday over 6 years later for you guys to be worried. What I'm trying to say is everything is in place for a smash. The only way it doesn't smash is if the song is horrible, which is a near-impossibility because our fav rarely misses and she has too much riding on this.
DonDesperado Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 She changed her profile in YouTube too. So I think a video will come also

Mau ® Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 Aren’t you guys excited to hear her VOICE again? I bet it’s gonna sound so different, maybe even more robust. I don’t know what to expect- she always uses her voice in exciting new ways in her comeback singles.

We Found Love I still remember the first time I heard those 3 and being like 'who is dis? this can't be her?' there's only so much you can play with your voice to push it to new interesting tones. I think she's done it all now and reached the limit.
Cheers Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 FourFiveSeconds and Diamonds were a SHOCK! No one was expecting that sound from her
ninasayers Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 I'm so nervous, i literally haven't been able to think of anything other than this song the entire day

I also think FourFiveSeconds and Work broke new ground in how she used her voice!

There is no way this song is a miss and some deadend sh*t like “Be Alive/Hold My Hand”. After 6 years away, she definitely knows what’s up. 2 hours ago, Eóghan said: we're not underestimating her. we're just takin into account that this is a soundtrack, not a personal song from her own artistry comeback hype or not, we have to take into account that there is a sizeable amount of the audience that only cares about what rih has to say about her own life and how it correlate with her art. not someone else's life or unrelated project from a corporation. and that's the case for all artists. just look at beyoncé, gaga, taylor etc ... no one is checking their OST i think the estimations given in this thread have been fairly accurate, if not inflated I get what you’re saying but One Republic have a song in the top ten right now and it’s from a OST. The worst case scenario is that Rih’s song does “okay” first day/week numbers but grows over the next few weeks and peaks just before or after Xmas.
