But the Rihanna Rude Boy remix that he made is simply amazing. Yeah, he did a good job with that one and a few others, but he made Fire Bomb (which should have been one of THE highlights) completely forgettable.

Yeah because FireBomb is one of the songs that is just untouchable. Its perfect just the way it is. Its her best produced track on the album.

Yeah I know. People be taking it out of context. they are not saying shes going to sell like Thriller but rather this album is going to be her signature album. What she will forever be known for like what Thriller did for MJ. Their saying that its gonna have impact and pizazz why cant they be hyped about her work. Those haters jus continue to hate and point fingers at her.

I think theyre saying it will be an album like Thriller where she could release every single song on it and have it be a hit not necessarily that its going to become the biggest album of all time.

^Thank You. and as far as I see it GGGB and rated R are so close to thriller because 85% of the songs COULD be singles.

Rated R is the first whole album of hers that I liked--it's fantastic. GGGB had great singles, but I didn't really like anything else on it. Looking forward to the next album, but it might be tough to top this one, for me.

^^yeah i dont think her new album is going to be able to top Rated R it is just too good. Mainly because she's gonna go back to her pop/reggae/r&b type sound and release a typical "mainstream" album.

U dont like Photographs... agree it was a bit ill-fitted. Her part was good because she had all those chris brown pictures in her mind but he just made the song seem like a BEP reject like a leftover track from The E.N.D

Rihanna's 2007 smash "Don't Stop The Music" tops the 3 million mark in paid downloads this week. It's Rihanna's third song as a lead artist to hit 3 million, following "Disturbia" and "Umbrella" (featuring Jay-Z). Rihanna also topped the 3 million mark as a featured artist on T.I.'s "Live Your Life." She is the only artist with a grand total (combining lead and featured roles) of four 3-million sellers.

I think her single with Eminem is gonna really blow up within a couple of weeks. I think that it can possibly help her sell more tickets for the L.G.O.E. tour. I get to see her in less than a month. Can't wait!

So more shows are cancelled:Now in Washington and Seatlle too plus they downsized the venues in Arizona and Texas.
Why is her North America tour not selling well?....i thought she was popular in the US

She is asking too much. Cut the ticket prices in half and it will sell. $100 for a decent seat to see Rihanna ? excuse me ?

They bit off more than they could chew. Rihanna can't do 25 dates in the US. They should have done New York, LA, Chicago, Vegas and maybe one more big city, similar to what Pink did. I know people who love Rihanna, but would never pay to see her live. That's really the main problem here.

I agree with this. They definitely bit off more than they could chew but It still could've worked if they cut the ticket prices down.
A better idea would've been as you said schedule dates in key cities, LA, NY, Chicago, etc.

Why is her North America tour not selling well?....i thought she was popular in the US Listen dont bring you negativity in here. Her tour is doing well its not like no one is buying the tickets. Just because ur artist is not doing well she put out a pre tour and didnt sell a ticket so back off!! If you have something to say please don't because I find that you are a RiRi hater. If thats what you are here for. Please leave.

But you are speaking about it in a neative way. Plus her tour dates are not confirmed to be cancelled you cant follow everything TGJ says they always be slamming Rihanna last time they said she cancelled dates when in reality she cancelled dates but she added them back in different cities because of the Arizona law.

I see nothing wrong with doing 25 dates - she has never really done a full blown US tour, it's about time to start. The only thing I'd say is that it was poor timing with Rated R being not prime material to launch a tour with and the current touring market as is. Also, Ticket Prices. Ridiculous. $95 for not even good seats to see an artist that really hasn't established themselves as a touring artist? Yea, not a good idea. Regarding the cancelled dates. The Washington date was a good 70% filled last time I looked, so it's not like it was really doing that poorly. The Texas date was an addition added a good month after the originals went on sale. Anyway, if the Christina fan is trying to throw shade...at least Rihanna's tour isn't completly cancelled
