It would def. be odd if Chris is more successful this era than Rihanna. What volumes would that speak?

I don't like how gloomy she is starting to look. I mean, she looks like a devil worshiper. She should tone it down because it is getting scary. I'd like to see her in BRIGHT colors again.

I wonder is she will address the Chris Brown incident on her album.. BOTH of their albums are going to be interesting when they come out.

I literally can't wait for her to explode digitally and on radio once again!

I hope Te Amo makes the cut for her album. Such an awesome song and she sounds fantastic on it. Make more songs like that Rihanna and I'll reevaluate whether you annoy the fuck out of me or not.

I wish she would reinvent herself. I'm sick of the dark Rihanna. It worked really well early in the GGGB era from Umbrella until Don't Stop The Music but it's gotten to be too much. She's taken it way too far in Disturbia, the Paranoid video, and Run This Town. She needs to tone it down IMO.

Disturbia and its video were perfect. She can pull off dark for another era at least, I'd say.

I think if she does go with the dark vibe for another era, people will grow sick of it halfway through. There's no way to know that for a fact and I'll probably end up wrong, but the girl just seems like a huge b**** now. That really turns me off to her.

I need her not to do the upbeat sickeningly bright stuff. She needs to stick with the mid-tempo's like Disturbia and Umbrella.

I don't think she was dark until Disturbia. From Umbrella to Don't Stop the Music she had more of a sexy image, then with Disturbia it turned more dark.
I prefer the sexier look, but meh. I do think she's starting to take the "dark" thing a little too far, we'll see how it plays out this era. I have a feeling her first single is going to be *really* dark.

I like that she mixes things up by being "dark"; there are plenty of bright and fluffy pop stars out there as it is.

Yeah she became dark with Disturbia, and that's my favorite video of hers anyway. She can mix it up every couple singles or so. I actually like her look, although I love the "A Girl Like Me" hair Rihanna.

The LOOK isn't new, the hair is ... I hope RIHANNA brings it down and delivers

anyone expecting a fluffy happy pop song...forget it. it's dark alternative-urban'ish club banger.

this new single better live up to the expectation.last album was spectacular for me.Te amo was a great song but i would hate it to be 1st single from the album.it would be nice to have "te amo" though in the album.
people were expecting the chris brown and rihanna duet before the beating incident.the collaboration will never happen anymore.

I'm trying to hold back my excitement for this, because I know if I don't I'll be expecting way too much. GGGB was just so perfect.

I hope the song is good though, it does sound kinda slow in the background. Maybe, it's one of the demos on youtube.

I'm kind of nervous about this new era of hers.. GGGB era was one of the most well handled era ever for an artist this decade, 3 #1's and 5 overall top ten.. However, I see alot of people are worried about her image being too dark Her fans thought it was 'cool' to see her drastic change at first esp in Umbrella and Disturbia, but she needs to tone it down. More of Umbrella, less RTT.. I feel like she's losing some fans over this tough, overconfident image.. Who cares right when she still delivers some catchy songs?
