Nicki Minaj Producer: “Rihanna’s ‘Diamonds’ Is A Classic”

Published: Monday 24th Sep 2012 by David

Despite releasing  ‘Talk That Talk’ in November of last year, Camp Rihanna ready the launch of her seventh studio album this year, ahead of her 2013 world tour.

Now, Nicki Minaj producer Pop Wansel have generated fresh steam for its lead single via Twitter yesterday, billing it… ‘classic’.

His tweet below…

Upon hearing the cut at a listening party, he shared:

Though this even has us a little excited, Wansel’s comments didn’t really say much in the grand scheme of things.

For, as ‘We Found Love’, ‘SOS’, ‘Only Girl In The World‘ and ‘Drunk On Love‘ proves, Rihanna has never had a problem recording and releasing ‘up market’ Pop. Her problem, we’d say, is delivering those numbers on a live performance tip.

So, here’s hoping her performances of ‘Diamonds’ are just as classic as the cut itself.

This, all too important if she is to compete against Aguilera, Minaj and the like… all of whom launch new campaigns in the coming months. Both of whom, are renown for first week numbers Fenty is still yet to enjoy.

Your thoughts?

      Your body is steady on itunes and remain rising rapidly on radio! Xtina is coming back from a flop era, and no one expects her to bring in big 1st week numbers! Single ladies, MoVES LIKE JAGGER all dropped to 60 on itunes before rising gradually to number because of airplay! and as history shows us….if Xtina can manage a top 10 single….Rihanna or Kesha wont be able to take her in 1st week album sales since before Bionic Xtina consistently did +350k in 1st week album sales….a number FAR above anything Riri or Kesha has produced. Also tour grosses, album sales Xtina destroys Both Kesha and Rihanna! so hush hush!…..but anyway I love Riri…and i hope Daimonds slays!!!!

      • RIH September 24, 2012

        LOL, b**** you sound stupid as s***. I respect Christina’s hustle, but you are talking about stats of hers in the past. She is not pushing those types of numbers this day and age, so take your lame ass comments and have several seat in Wembley Stadium all the way to the back in the nosebleed section! You are right about one thing though, Diamonds will slay!

    Talk That Talk is the sixth studio album by Barbadian recording artist Rihanna, released on November 18, 2011 through Def Jam Recordings. As the executive producer of the album, Rihanna enlisted a variety of producers to collaborate with including Alex da Kid, Mr. Bangladesh, Calvin Harris, Dr. Luke, Stargate and The-Dream. Sonically, the album is rooted in pop, dance-pop and R&B, but also incorporates a variety of other genres such as hip hop, electro house, dubstep and dancehall.

        Okay,,,, i will try.
        So that means that the 14 by 11 page that the Bey Hive Keeps printing of Beyonce’s Accomplishments don’t bother U Right.In 2010, Rihanna collaborated with American rapper Eminem on “Love the Way You Lie”; the song was worldwide success, reaching the top-spot in more than twenty countries worldwide. In the United States it was certified quintuple platinum for selling more than 5 million digital copies. A year later, in November 2010, Rihanna released her fifth studio album Loud. The album earned Rihanna platinum certification in the United States and sextuple platinum in the United Kingdom. It spawned seven singles including the commercially successful hits, “Only Girl (In the World)”, “S&M” and “What’s My Name?” which featured Canadian rapper Drake. On November 18, 2011, Rihanna released her sixth studio album Talk That Talk. The album’s lead single “We Found Love” featured British DJ Calvin Harris who also produced the song. It became a major worldwide success, topping the charts in more than twenty countries including the Billboard Hot 100, where it stayed at number-one for ten weeks, becoming her longest-running number-one of her career in the country.[8] Talk That Talk spawned four more singles including the international hit “Where Have You Been

  11. You will DEAL!!!!!!! September 24, 2012

    Wow 7th album 7th year in the game damn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It will prob be her first #1 album damn it took her 6 albums? To get there? Why are her sales so low tho 30 mil albums 7 albums Britney spears 7 100 mil see the difference? But somewhere in the line this releasing albums every year is going to Bite her in the ass (but its been clever to she would have been irrelevant if she did) but it would be very interesting to see rihannna release an album after 4 years (like christina) even a 2 year break To see if people is still checking for cus remember rihanna NEVER left yet

    • AIR HEAD September 24, 2012

      the difference is back then people wasn’t illegally downloading music as much they do today, so go and sit somwhere trying to shade Rhanna’s success.

    • DC3 September 24, 2012

      She took a break after the Chris Brown incident and she came back with Rated R and flopped. Since then she has not stopped releasing albums because she’s scared she will flop again and become irrelevant.

      • UPPER EAST SIDE September 24, 2012

        “Chris Brown incident”? Oh you mean the fight lost?…….You know, the that she started!!!! 0_0

        She never took a break! She spent 3 years producing generic Pop music (like her counterparts Naked Perry, Man Caca, Sicki Minaj, Justin Babble etc) and playing the damn victim to push the music along. I do agree however, that her PR Team is scared that she will flip and flop especially since she has expressed a desire to no longer lie and play the victim in order to advance her career!

    • DC3 September 24, 2012

      @UPPER EAST SIDE

      The Rated R era flopped. It took 10 months for the album to sell over 1 million copies in the US and most of its singles flopped (Wait Your Turn, Russian Roulette, Hard, Rock Star, Te Amo). Why do you think Rihanna released Loud so quickly after that era? Because she knew Rated R flopped!

    Shame, sam,

    People outside of the def jam are going bat s*** crazy about diamonds. Nicki’s camp is down with Universal, so she has no reason to big up rih’s track.

    Shame Sam, the buzz is so strong. Meanwhile , Rita Ora ( remember her ?) is at 84 on uk itunes and 14 on the UK radio1 chart – the UK chart. Where is Rita Ora’s buzz? Rih’s single has more buzz than Rita’s whole career.

    Rita ora fake fans have such pure envy and jealousy for rihanna, they are on twitter hoping Alicia keys moves her album to compete with Rihanna, so alicia keys can slay rihanna! LOL LOL Alicia keys peaked on her second album, she is practically over, and Rihanna sales s*** all over Alicia keys , worldwide.

    Anyway, Rita Ora has tweeted pictures mimicking Rihanna’s exact poses on her instagram. An exact copy: the clothes; the makeup; the poses in hotel bedroom – an exact copy of what Rihanna has been doing for years – BUT WHO CARES? Rihanna is the diamond princess coming to slay and Rita ora will need to find a job as Beyonce’s back up singer.

  22. JJFan1814 September 24, 2012

    Who the hell said Rated R was a flop when it out performed 4???? Rude Boy was #1, Hard & Russian Roulette were 9 & 8 respectively. RR was an international hit.

    I can’t with these delusional bey stans.

    • Back2Business September 24, 2012

      B**** you stupid!! 4 has sold more than RR US & WW! Better check them stats!

  23. That B*tch September 24, 2012

    I’ve had a love/hate relationship with Rihanna for a while but imma need to hear this song myself to judge if its gonna be a classic or not.
    I hope she doesnt disappoint me like she did with TTT because she does make some good songs.

  24. WaitUrTurn88 September 24, 2012

    A CLASSIC SONG FOR A CLASSIC BEAUTY!!!……SHE CAN JUST HYPNOTIZE U WITH THOSE EYES, SO FRICKEN GORGEOUS!!

  25. kelly September 24, 2012

    Let us all call it diamond wednesday. Sam, Beyonce, Rita Ora and all haters of Rih are scared. The days are getting near, they want to hear the song – and fast!

    Meanwhile, Beyonce was seen last night and she was pork fat, some think she is pregnant, but I think her REAL GENETIC AGE ( 40 ) is catching up. No way was Beyonce 16 when she released no no no – she looked a decade or so older.

    She is getting fat because her REAL age is kicking in, plus she looks so dated, she is dressing like it is 2003 again. Shame she is more older and fatter than she was in 2003

    • That B*tch September 24, 2012

      You stupid h*** are always bringing up Bey’s name in a post that has nothing to do with her. This is why some people dont like Rihanna….because of her dumbass fans.

      • nunu September 24, 2012

        Tell me about it Im a rihanna Fan, but why the comparison SERIOUSLY beyonce has got nothing to do with rihanna, each artist is successful in their own way.

      • TeamBreezy September 24, 2012

        to be honest, more people despise Bey because of HER fans than they do Ri,

        juss sayin..

    • Back2Business September 24, 2012

      … but was Rihanna salivating over Beyonce picture on twitter the other day saying how her beauty could destroy the self esteem of the world?

  26. Lax September 24, 2012

    @KELLY,,,,,Preach and these Lame Bytches think we are the same , I wished i could type as good as you and had your sense of Humor and Laughter in my Typing Skills but Hey we do Out thing and don’t give a care who can’t stand the Heat because we know Rihanna is coming and GUNNING for everybody and everything in Her Path.

  27. PrettigurlrockD September 24, 2012

    I woulda liked to see her work on her vocal lessons a bit more. She gonna record good songs then not be able to deliver them live like every year.

    • TeamBreezy September 24, 2012

      so what.. move on

  28. nunu September 24, 2012

    Why is everyone comparing with Beyonce and Rihanna ??? it pisses me off sometimes 😛 Rihanna Looks up to Beyonce. Beside im looking forward to this new single plus Sam is obsessed with Rihanna he can be very hypercritical too. Let it be Sam hate her has much has u like but come on she does have better success then Rita Ora :/ at least she’s an entertainer she has over 60 million fans world wide. Hater are gonna hate. But Comparing thing has to stop -_-

  35. mobwife: “aqua boogie baby” September 24, 2012

    The music industry is full of SH*T!

    It’s a damn shame that artists – as well as gimmicks – have to produce a CD a year or a single every other day to stay in the game. There use to be a time when 1 CD would produce 5, 6 or 7 hits (see Anita Baker, Luther Vandross, Prince, Michael Jackson, STP, Nirvana, hell, Parliament Funkadelic <— 🙂 ) that would spin for a good 2 years.BUT in this" instant, give it to me now" fake, controlled, media-driven music industry, no CD gets the treatment it deserves!

    **Adele's "21" is the modern day exception……

    • JOHNVIDAL September 24, 2012

      How I wish it could be more albums making it like Adele´s 21. But it´s not only sales and media, it´s the music itself what is not in a good state either (at least mainstream music)

  36. POP ROYALTY ( RUDE BOY) September 24, 2012

    Just a Pre-release Over-hyping strategy to generate buzz. 🙄

    I will wait to judge with my own ears , i won’t let a f*****’ nicki producer to judge for me.
    let me guess , he think Nicki is a legend as well ?!!! 😆 😆 😆 😆

  37. JER September 24, 2012

    Even drag queens can turn out an amazing live performance, it doesnt mean they are legendary entertainers or pop icons. BeYawnce is nothing more than a godamn drag queen and Ive seen more gorls turn it out bigger and better than BIONCI. If thats all it takes then why is Rihanna a sickening b**** while other “better performers” have and continue to stay irrelevant

  38. theman September 24, 2012

    They always hype up her music, then it turns out to be very generic. This needs to be something different outside of dance music, she releases albums way too soon.

  39. MC September 24, 2012

    Let me get this straight: Nicki Garbage Gimmick Minaj’s producer said this song is a “classic”? Girl, have the whole Yankee’s stadium seats just for that comment.

  40. MELODY2012 September 24, 2012

    Rihloaded is coming back stronger>>>HOORAY

  41. commanderofthedancefloor September 24, 2012

    how many times are people going to call this a dance song? she already said you are not dancing to this song. anyways i wont trust a nicki producer because well its a nicki producer.
