Seriously though, it's not really a "break"
She still had What Now over the winter, and The Monster throughout this year so...

The only thing the break will do is keep a weak single from doing well by default. If it's good it will smash. Wouldn't the effect be the opposite? Break = anticipation for new Rihanna. As long as the song she releases isn't Russian Roulette, she'll be in good shape.

"My sources say" or "I'm hearing" = code for "I'm taking an educated guess."
If you knew it for a fact, you'd just say, "Here's what's going to happen." The "source" thing is a way to A) look cool B) add credibility to your message and C) give yourself a disclaimer in the event that it doesn't go as planned. It wasn't you who said it, it was your "sources."
Rihanna will have a new single soon. Not sourced. Not "inside." Just obvious.

I want her to wait and give Gwen and Fergie their moment of comeback glory. If she releases it with their songs I'm sure hers will overshadow theirs, and I'd hate to see that happen.

I think you're just jealous that someone knows more than you. Sure it's obvious there is a new Rihanna single coming. It's just as obvious as a new Adele single coming. But maybe, just maybe, they know the real tea and aren't allowed to give specifics. I wouldn't put it past NeRD to know more than the rest of us.

I just hope it's not a "Dark Horse" type of thing. I have it inked for hitting my November 1st top 100.

Isn't it all dependent on the release date of the movie Home?

Isn't it all dependent on the release date of the movie Home? Pretty much, yeah because it's hard to imagine how they're going to manage R8 and HOME at the same time. If she's releasing a conceptual album for the movie and Dreamworks spent so much money on this, makes sense to assume that they'll promote her and her music. With all that's been happening regarding no news of new music, I'd say R8 is, in fact, the conceptual album for HOME.

Excluding Russian Roulette, she literally has an immaculate lead single track record (Pon De Replay, SOS, Umbrella, Take a Bow, Only Girl, We Found Love, Diamonds). They've all been massive hits, and moreover amazing and often surprising songs. All were very different songs from the previous lead single. So in other words, I'm excited to see what lead single knock out she hits us with next.
