I'd be shocked if 'Photograph' doesnt go become a single.

^According to my source it will. Besides, out of all remaining tracks it's the most obvious single.

I'd be shocked if 'Photograph' doesnt go become a single. It should be the fourth and final single off the album.

For those who said I was jumping the gun by making this thread...please form an organized line and come hand me dem wigs:
Rihanna Moves On From Rated R
According to Rihanna’s production label, SRP Records, the model’s latest single ‘Rude Boy’ is likely to be the last single to be lifted from her moderately successful ‘Rated R’ LP. The news comes in wake of the confirmation that the 22 year old is set to release a lighter, up-tempo album this summer.
This hardly comes as a surprise considering the fact it’s well known a new RiRi LP is in the works. That said, it’s rather telling that after just 5 months, her label have decided to call time on the project, in preparation for yet another assault on the charts with an entirely different record. I mean, if ever there was a template for ‘fast food music’, this would be it; music only designed to satisfy the ‘here and now’, as opposed to stand the test of time.
While such a strategy may bring in the $$$ (as I’m sure her label are hoping it will), it’s rather interesting to observe that the artists that have enjoyed lengthy careers not only boast songs that have gone down as classics, yet also albums too. At the rate Rihanna and her team are going, ‘Rated R’ – despite being her best effort yet – will likely join the pile of forgettable LP’s she’s released (‘Good Girl Gone Bad’ excluded).
In any case, it’ll be interesting to see if there’s actually any demand for Ms. Fenty’s next record, considering how soon it’s being released after her last…

lol thatgrapejuice is such a pressed blog. again - it's wrong. Carl & Evan (Srpmusic) made some bizzarre & misleading tweets and then deleted them. Rihannadaily, foolishly jumped on it and implied it was some official announcement. Anyway, i don't understand why one moment people believe "Photographs" is to be the next single!", then it's no album, then it's "Rockstar" is to be the next single", then new album etc. etc. when Universal already has Fire Bomb down as the next single weeks ago.

The same people that want PG as a single were the ones rooting for RR. I knew that flop ballad was going to bomb as bad as a lead Nicole Sherzinger single. I can't wait for FB to smash all summer long.

It probably ain't true. Those BBB's (Bitchy British Boys) Sam & Trent are always going out of their way to make her look bad.

Why do the boys at TGJ hate Riallah so much? They're pretty quick to lavish praise on just about anyone else but they do nothing but bash her.

Seriously look. Posts that don't mention Rihanna get 30 posts if they're lucky, Rihanna posts get well over 100. Most of the replies are made up of Rihanna fans lashing out at S&T, for whatever, and defending them, saying they're speaking the truth, Rated R flopped, etc. They also have huge crushes on CB

BIG UPDATE:
That's right, it's pretty much confirmed that the new single will be out late summer, Rated R is officially done.
Here's the chat via Twitter:
Q: luvRockstar101 A: SRPrecords

They also said "it will be a return to her pop roots but will have enough variety to please all her "true fans."

It's a shame that the Rated R era lasted only 10 months. This era had so much potential and even though Rockstar101 was a flop, I still believe FB and Photographs could have turned things around and they could have milked more sales from this album come 4Q2010.

This is a good decision and hopefully the holidays will push Rated R over the 1,000,000 mark.
Hopefully she leads off with the right single this time.
