Deadass I don’t think there’s a single grail in modern music that I want more than whatever was playing in this photo

huge W for Nadeska

she's a great interviewer

Just tuned in, can’t wait to see what she says

Would be crazy not to drop while her name has Super Bowl stimulus.

Personally Id drop the lead single tonight, video in the morning, and announce my album is now streaming at the end of the Super Bowl performance. I know that would put the FWS sales behind by a few days, but I think it’d ultimately be worth it and she would probably sell like 1 mil first week.

She won’t do no milli

She won’t do near a milli unless she has physicals ready to ship.

If she dropped on Sunday night without physicals she’d probably do like 500-600

I actually really like that strategy. If the hype is strong enough with the single and both it and Lift Me Up are on the album, that makes up for a few days missing from the tracking week easily

Idk about a mil but iirc she’s never been a huge first week album seller. Even Anti debuted low and then jumped to #1 because of the whole Samsung deal

Yeah I might have been reaching with the 1 mil but I still think the strategy is solid!

In

Wait is this official that she’s dropping new album?

:waiting:

'Then there’s the Apple halftime show. Apple’s first time sponsoring the event will feature music megastar Rihanna making her first live appearance in five years. This will bring in casual younger fans of her music, contributing to the audience (with VIP+’s hunch that Apple will announce soon after that Rihanna’s new album will be available on Apple Music).'

adding to OP thank you king

if she scrapped the dancehall album

Riri dropping heavy metal album confirmed

Forgot how great that beat is

wish kanye could go on stage

I also wish he could have his own halftime show

This album is going to be very interesting
