BabyBenzz Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Rihanna was never a frontloaded album artist, yes she had major hype but most of it died down and lots of people just don't care anymore.. so it's up to her and the lead single she decides on.. but in no way will she come close to Taylor's numbers, don't get why y'all always have to drag Taylor into this lmao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paola Bracho Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 (edited) This thread can be considered an IQ test... She will obviously going to have a typical Rihanna opening week for today's standards. The hype for her is dead and even if it was huge we all know Rihanna is a slow burner. If the album contains 10-12 songs (which it probably will), I can't see her doing some really huge numbers on streaming as well. You can all keep making your consciously made up non realistic predictions so we can have an interesting release week with threads like "but *they told me she was going to annihilate Adele and Taylor". _______________ *Bey Admired Edited September 20, 2022 by Paola Bracho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonDesperado Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 She won't have the monsters sales of Adele or Taylor. We all know. In sales of album they are untouchables Even we also know that she always serves a successful Era. And this time where she was on hiatus, becoming a mogul, billionaire, and a monster on streaming. Probably she could achieve her best first week. If she keeps the wait, then she will decrease the momentum. For me it's what I said before. I will enjoy of the material for sure cause I miss her and listen to her is always amazing. Don't care about sales cause a release could be a miracle coming from miss fenty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IsidoraMarí Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Rihanna was hated during her reign, people began to love her AFTER ANTi, an entire generation that grew up hearing her as the main force on radio have yet to participate in a Rihanna album release. Her next album might not even be sold, she's a billionaire, a 200 million dollar deal for her album is probable. It will change the way the uber rich artists release music.

manwhore Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Her drive for the art isn't there anymore. The freshmen artist peak happens to all artists because it is then when they are fighting hardest to be seen and heard hence their "peak artistry" eras. Once they make big money their craft deteriorates bc the drive isn't there like before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is more of an opinion. She was always America's sweetheart outside atrl stan wars. If by being liked more during ANTI, you mean the urban rnb community started paying more attn to her, then yes. She was always more of a broad appeal pop star who dabbled in rnb and hip hop elements before anti. She was very mainstream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She never had a genuine fanbase a la the Hive or Monsters or even Christina A levels in her prime. As a black female and as she is a black female, the black female community hated her for a whole decade after the fall of Chris, she was to blame in the eyes of the black femme masses. Rated R barely sold anything compared to the GGGB era and she has yet to deliver the same height of popularity. Her music was successful because they were undeniable earworms in an era where most sold their celebrity and personas more than their sound. Now her celebrity and belovedness is at a level comparable to MJ-Madonna-Marilyn Monroe along with her talent to release radio hits is setting her next album up to be a potential new peak.
