Maybe the single or album is called "Little by Little". Or she's doing a Miguel/Robyn-style EP release structure?

I've been listening to Unapologetic a lot lately. It's getting cold and gloomy here, it just seems to fit my mood. Outside of "Phresh Out The Runway" (which has the worst production and vocal production of any Rihanna song ever recorded) and "Right Now," (enjoyable, but way too generic) the album is SO GOOD. It's probably my most listened to Rihanna album at this point. And that's saying a lot.

"POTR" is one of those songs I want to love so bad. Because some of the lyrics are just YAAAAAS. But I cannot get around that horrible production, it sounds like GARBAGE when you try to blast it in the car too. And her vocal is so thin and s**tty.
Not to mention is doesn't go with the rest of the album sonically AT ALL, lol.

"POTR" is an awkward start to an album like Unapologetic. The sound doesn't match the rest of the album and the production is just a mess. I really love that breakdown tho: "I bet you wanna know what my crew about!" and that bitchy little noise she makes after it (I don't know what it's called... it's like a laugh but a snort? LOL). My favorite on the album is "Get It Over With".

Numb was always my favorite off that album even though I do a MEAN Diamonds rendition and the Kanye Remix is fire.

Love Song (too many o's) was that fire too, despise Future's screaming.

IDK Loud to me is the only Rihanna album I like for the album tracks as well as the singles (apart from Breakin Dishes and Sell me Candy on GGGB, I'm not into her deep cuts).
POTR is good but I listen to about half of it before skipping

Love Song (too many o's) was that fire too, despise Future's screaming. Does that qualify as screaming? Because I still can't figure out what exactly Future does and if that's autotune or his actual voice.

^ I think she can totally pull off a surprise release. I hope it actually happens, because I'm dying for new Rih.

With Home coming out, I'm afraid if she does indeed drop this year it'll be a half-assed, messy era and I'm not here for another one of those. Or they could be plotting some different kind of release, not a surprise one, but different from the traditional lead-full album? Idk too many rumours, let's see.. As for POTR I can still enjoy it and I don't feel it's that out of place on Unapologetic when there are songs like Pour It Up or Love Song on it

With that subtle little by little remark I could see her going the EP route. Release an EP with about 5 songs with a single just to hold people over until next year.

Maybe something like the Body Talk albums Robyn did, a few EPS, then combine them later into a larger collection? I don't care what the hell she does, just get some new music out there.

That makes a lot of sense and I completely agree. Besides, if she indeed has already some tracks recorded, she could drop some before Home. If she promotes the conceptual album she supposedly recorded for the movie, then just dropping an EP now with a few songs that does not require an extensive promotional campaign can keep people excited before the next project arrives really soon.

1. Release a 5 track EP in December 2014 2. Promote the Home Soundtrack (March 2015 Release based on when the movie is out). 3. Combine the EP with an official LP (adding 10 songs) for a Full LP Release for Fall 2015.
It gives enough time for each one to breathe.

I don't want any theories or any predictions, I just want new music for Rihanna. She is literally STARVING ME from getting my life!! And I don't want an EP I want an ALBUM. I love her albums!!

My body is! CMON RIRI SLAY ME ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Noooo. I can't deal, I need some sort of warning or notice before the release. I have been waiting for so long and if the music came from out of nowhere today or tomorrow I would need CPR.

While a surprise release would be entertaining due to the Hive/Navy mess that would inevitably ensue (she would undoubtedly be compared to Beyoncé), I'd don't want that kind of relase, either.

I definitely do not want that. I strongly dislike stan wars. In the end, for me it's all about the music and that's what matters the most to me.

OMG the stan wars would be beyond a mess. What I need is a quality album from RiRi; she always delivers, so I'm not worried. I've never been disappointed by one of her albums, I remember when "Loud" was released so many people were disappointed? That album has so many golden moments. Music in general was slaying a lot more just a few years ago than it is now.
