Two years removed from the release of he #1 LP ‘Unapologetic‘, chart-slaying beauty Rihanna gears up for the release of her eighth studio album in 2014, marking her first since her surprise from Def Jam.
Fortunately for her fans, this week has brought exciting new details from the project’s kitchen, served up by hit baking producer DJ Mustard during his time on hit radio show ‘The Breakfast Club.’
On the release, Mustard shared:
Exciting times!
With no problem executing cuts from any genre, we can’t wait to hear what Rihanna delivers this time around, especially on a thematic front.
For, as “unique” as her voice is, she stands as one of Pop’s braver/versatile entertainers, which is why we’re eager to see how the last two years of her life have influenced what many hope will be a bold new sound!
LOL THE QUEEN IS COMING!
SLAVEONCE, GET YOUR PEN & NOTEPAD READY! LOL
dont dare call bey a s**** when her house is being paid with rihs s***..lets be clear,rihanna is the real s**** here…slaves were used to work and give the money to their masters when they get paid peanuts…rihs net worth should tell u whos the s****..working to line up jays pocket
Hahaha! She aint coming for s***. She wont do Beyonce numbers. Nor will she be as acclaimed. So sit!
Yes. The Queen is coming: Adele.
Who d hell is a little moron to talk we its worthless fav career is literally DEAD.
LOL STAY PRESSED, FLEAS.
SLAVEONCE HAS TO TAKE NOTES AS SHE STRUGGLES TO OUTSELL UNAPOLOGETIC.
SHE’LL BE TASTING JAY’S KNUCKLES IF SHE DOESN’T DO SOMETHING TO UPSTAGE QUEEN RIRI LOL
waiting for the pink print tbh,i love her verse in animales..i am also waiting for lana,they are the only albums im waiting for since bey,artpop and bangerz oh and prism
its going down,im yelling timber #keshavoice
So is it two albums one year? If it is her numbers will be abysmal!
Ya’ll seem more worried than the queen… focus on you’re fave.
This basic s*** is gonna to flop hard i feel sorry for the navy who stan for such a basic h** that is literally a walking yeast infection
LOL UNAPOLOGETIC-4.1 MILLION WW, 4 HIT SINGLES.
UNDERSTUDYONCE-3.5 MILLION WW, 1 HIT SINGLE.
WHO’S BASIC AGAIN? LOL
Lol. The self drag.
Love Rihanna, but she won’t come close to Beys numbers. Beyonce is an album artist with critical acclaim, Rihanna can have Mariahs Crown, Beyonce is taking the Madonna route.
Navy shouldn’t be worrying about Beyonce, worry about the fact Adele is coming around the same time.
Adele is coming…i really didnt know but im here for her,shes so adorable it hurts…and has a beautiful voice
Adele and rihanna have completely different audiences so I don’t think there will be that much competition beetween them
@RihIcon….a navy talking about different audiences when ur fan base shade singers that have a lil thang called vocals..ri is running a genre of her own and dont think its a compliment
Someone who stans for Miley and Bieber shouldn’t talk about music or talent period.but then again you just seemed like a pressed troll since you’re here 24/7
bieber can play more than eight instruments,can actually sing live and we his fans actually buy his music unlike most fan bases who stan with empty pockets..
as for miley,we all know miley can sing,the climb and all those songs she did before this era were pure talent,ive heard miley perform live and shes good and if that dont work out she still has her acting.how would u know in here 24/7 unless u are here..uha??whose tha pressed 1
LOL AND THE FLEAS SHOULD WORRY ABOUT ADELE SNATCHING SLAVEONCE’S LACEFRONT & SHYTTING ON HER EXISTENCE. AGAIN. LOL
Shut the hell up h**. Quit acting like your ghetto ass never had a great great grandpa who picked cotton. Quit bumping Rihannas accomplishments as if they were yr own. You broke ass couldn’t even afford to download Diamonds for 1.29, let alone go to the tour…which sucked BTW, cant sing for s*** live, or dance.
YESS BITCHH the queen is coming to slayyyyyyy.
& not TGJ actually praising the queen for once. Let david write the rihanna articles from now on. Not that pressed bottom Samantha
Rihanna can sing everything, she has the most unique tone in Pop music, something more impressive when you think that she is a black girl from a small island on the caribbean, few acts has been able to sing successfully different music genres, that should count as talent, she’s a gifted singer.
And the pressed b*tches come in 3…… 2 …… 1
As much as I hate to, I have to agree with you there. Her versatility alone makes her stand in a lane that is her own
@S******
You do have a point there! Rihanna does deserve credit for being versatile enough to shift from one genre to the another (and have it not feel like she’s out of place). That is a talent!
no one can be rihanna and when they try it plain as day and it come off fake
He did not produce Loyal…
I wouldnt get too excited FLOPgetic Has already been outsold by “BEYONCE” after only 6 Months. 🙁
If it want for Roc Nation warning her about Bey’s release her 8th album would ALREADY be out!
Lies. Ryan Seacrest revealed that Rihanna wouldn’t release a new album in 2013, two years ago. They never release around the same time anyway. Be seated on a glass d**** covered in hot sauce. 😉
yeah since rihanna f***** every thing with a d***,we might as well use a d**** to avoid her s**
LOL smiley face 🙂 have a nice day… #queen nicki voice
maybe ill just clean this s*** off…
Before I even hit play, I said, “I hope it’s nothing like those samey DJ Mustard tracks on the radio” and voila! I’m loving the suspense surrounding her new projects. I think her new era will begin whenever she makes a new IG. Exciting times!!! 😀
Do you know whether its all for this soundtrack she’s doing?
I hope not. Maybe it is, since he said its “different,” but idk. I think she finished the soundtrack quite some time ago. Everything surrounding this era is so mysterious.
Don’t understand why throw shade at Beyoncé when they are clearly all one team. ROC Nation are in control 100% this era since she just left Def Jam for them.
im sorry but the beyhive and navy will never be on one team,why do ya think i bought that magazine with bey and rih on the cover and tour rih out..it dates back years
Her album was already produced by Def Jam. It sounds like it will be the last one distributed under them and all future music will be printed through roc nation. They already said this.
Yes but ROC Nation will be in charge of how the era unfolds.
As of May 15, 2014, Beyoncé has sold 1,968,000 copies in the US.
As of May 15, 2014, Unapologetic has sold 1.13 million copies in the US
LOL AS OF MAY 15, 2014 UNAPOLOGETIC HAS SOLD 4.1 MILLION WORLDWIDE.
AS OF MAY 15, 2014 STRUGGLEYONCE HAS SOLD 3.5 MILLION WORLDWIDE.
FLOPONCE CAN KEEP THE LOCAL U.S. LOL
^you’re shading yourself.. that album is 2 yrs old
Who the hell is this?No seriously who is this big forehead,large nose and untalented trash
LOL THE CHICK THAT’S BEEN DRAGGING JAY Z’S S**** SINCE 2005 LOL
Can’t wait 😀 I’m sure Icon is about to deliver her best era yet!
Indeed!!! She has really been taking her time which gave me the opportunity to really sit down and enjoy her discography! She is coming to slay! 😀
what the f**** a rihanna?
Im excited to hear what she has in store Rihanna may be not be the best vocalist but her music is always on point. Music has been so boring this year i need some spice.
and a doctor to cure ur dead ear…..i like how u keip it cute since ya ass be getting dragged…..
i wanna pop my gum
Goodbye ‘whatz a rihanna’
Hii @Boytoy.
Hey boo!! How are you?????? Long time noooo talk 🙁
I know right & I’ve been good hun how about yourself? I know you gotta be excited for new music from RiRi.
I’ve been good boo. Graduated last weekend, so I’m still on cloud 9. 😀 I’m just happy Rih is finally letting us miss her. Music is definitely boring without her presence!
Thats good congratulations hun,& i know this the first time in awhile the navy actually gets to miss Rih, hopefully her signing to Roc Nation means she’ll have a well put together era cause lord knows the unapologetic & talk that talk eras were messy as hell.
Soooo f****** messy! It got to the point where she was financing her own videos. Good riddens def jam!
Wow really? didn’t know she was paying for her own videos at one point Ciara had to do the same smh i can’t stand s***** labels tbh ugh.
But globally unapologetic sold more. I wish people would realize that we are in a global economy and stop looking at only ONE MARKET
Exactly! The us isnt the only existing market! Beylocal fans wont understand 🙁
and thats the most sad part,that no matter how many records rih sells and charts she tops she always makes less than each 1 of my top faves eeeerrryear & thay wanna be callin bey a s****
Unapologetic 3.5mill after 17months
Beyonce 3.4mill after 5months 1week
the rihanna sold more globally shade is tired.
IKR d #navy logic *puts palm on face*
Im so frikkin excited! Knowing her it will be like nothing on the radios! Everyone will be here for it! He did two songs for her albums! Maybe one for the soundtrack and one for the end of year release! Im amped! Not knowing whats going on is killing me
Still wish she would have made love without tragedy a single before ending the unapologetic era that song is so amazing and deserved a video
Can’t wait. And NO EDM!!!!! I say 300K the first week and two more #1 hits added to her belt.
Her edm is that bad except for right now that song was terrible the best edm song is…
Where Have You Been>>>>>>
I agree, but they don’t age as well as her other genre songs. EDM is on it’s last breath, it’s not wise to go that rout.
Lol true EDM is definitely tired now that’s why Gaga isn’t doing so good anymore, hopefully she gives us more songs like what now and loveeeeeee song.
Yea, I remember everyone wanted Ciara to doi EDM and looking back I’m glad she didn’t. Seeing how urban sounds is back at the top.
Yea at one point even I wanted Ciara to jump on the EDM bandwagon but im glad she didn’t seeing how well body party did im so excited for new Ciara music i feel like her last album wasn’t done justice, i fell like Im out should have never been a single to me it killed the era she should have released overdose or livin it up as the next single after BP.
My question is why do the hive and navy hate each other? Y’all got your own queens so stop fighting.
There are stans in both bases who genuinely like the both of them, but it is what it is. The Hive and Navy will never get along.
Well I hope they do cause they are the only black female pop and R&B singers ruling.
Because these stupid blogg were comparing bey to some none talent,bubble gum singer who realeases a record all the time cause she becomes irrelevant soon & her stans are thoughts she had more talent so thats preety much what be goin on back der
Beyoncé is this generations legend and Rihanna is this generations icon.
^ That is the simple truth at the core of it! You’re comments are often very honest! 🙂 I’m not a Riri fan, but I hate when people are delusional. I believe icons can be made in as little as 3 – 5 years, but I don’t think one will be remembered unless you hit the 10 year mark! Good for Rih for doing so by next year! As for B, some people hate to consider Bey a budding legend, but she’s put in her time and work! She’s approaching her 20! Both women truly made their mark!
Anyways I can’t wait for Pink Print and Riri’s album. 😉
Isn’t Nicki single dropping soon? I remember her saying on yas b**** she’ll drop it in two weeks and im sure that song came out about 2 weeks ago Lol
Clock her boo!
yeah but maybe she will be releasing the single on saturday or sunday. But you know nicki she is always tricking 😉 lol
Oh that pic 😥 … the photoshoots she did while in Greece, Dominican Rep, UAE and Brazil just slay really hard.. Greece and UAE ones were the best!
Thank God, can’t wait for the slayage. The Queen is coming, she gave y’all one year, one whole year.
As a member of both the Hive and the Navy I must admit, I never thought i’d miss Rihanna Novembers so much until there was no album last year. 🙁 my body is ready.
Yes Inyala
Love your name & avi lol
Thank you honey.
Not that you completely misspelled IYANLA name though!
lol oop
oop. Just Checked my ass didn’t you? Noted and fixed
i’m ready, her music always slays.
Looking foward to Mariah Ciaras Adeles and Riris new albums this year… ugh can’t i need new music in my life.
molly and boy toy work at a strip club..i know ,im always there
Rih is so snatched… Her new sound is always one step a head of the basics
I’m sure she’ll have her 16th #1 at the end of this era R8 is going to be flawless her most iconic era to date…
anyone that thinks other wise is senile…
and if the beehive thinks that Rihanna is not releasing this album with every intent of scalping bey ya’ll are deluded this is why this will be her best era. She just has to One-UP the pop b******
people buy trash too,literally sometimes
and sometimes they don’t… Pretty Hurts is Beyonce’s 4th Single and and her cumulative US singles sale isn’t even 2 Million Singles sold….
Rihanna’s Diamonds alone has outsold every digital singles sale combined for ‘Beyonce’ in the US
what kind of Queen?!!!!
On another note 1.9 Albums> 1.35 Albums
2mill singles> 10 million singles
i prefer the latters numbers.. both singles and albums go platinum as oppose to album kinda popping and singles a flat out flop…..
DIL only charted as high because elf Radio and Streaming, the Song has yet to pass 1.3 in singles sale poor dat!
and yet bey is gonna earn more than rih,what a s****
Rih is the s****? I’m crying. Who has been touring and will be touring for over a year and a half?
b**** bye.
But who is the one putting money in whos pockets?
2014 summer/fall will be everything

Good for Rih, Whatever she does musically I hope its innovative and in a brave new direction, Im sick of everyone doing the same thing… Lets switch it up a bit Rih
Agreed she needs something that stands out from the crowd.
Ugh i hope we still get a new Ciara album this year 🙁
Bye. Rihanna just jumps on every up and coming sound. She did it with trap, dubstep and edm. Stop hyping her up to something shes not.
How in the hell did i hype her up???? By saying I hope her new music is innovative and fresh????????
GIRL……
Death, Rihanna doesn’t do the same thing as everyone else; everyone else tries to do what Rihanna is doing.
Not really lets not act like Rihanna didn’t jump on the EDM bandwagon with everyone else. #NoShade
Girl NO.
Kelly and David Guetta started mainstream EDM. When Love Takes over.
Rihanna then went on it with WFL which slayed globally and was perched at #1 all over the world and is her best selling single the world over.
After WFL smash success thats when everyone else follows suit. Rihanna birthed the EDM b****** though she borrowed it from kelly.
People don’t get that Rihanna does necessarily starts trends, its when she sees something that has been done then she makes it her own, it becomes mainstream because its Rihanna, then everyone else follows.
Bye Rihanna just jumps on every up and coming sound. She did it with trap, dub step and edm. Stop hyping her up to something shes not.
Carmen dearest Rihanna has not done Trap music, have a f****** seat. Rihanna never does what she sees everyone else doing. She is a trend setter if nothing else.
Even if Rihanna jumped on EDM which she didn’t the only artist who had EDM before her was Kelly Rowland…
WHICH artist had a bigger EDM song than WFL and i will f****** wait.
Sorry, but that doesn’t make her a trend setter. Because she wasn’t the first to do it.
you clearly don’t understand the definition of a trend setter.
Its not about being the first to do it. It’s about doing it and everyone else follows suit.
Go find a dictionary please because…
Girl bye…. Rihanna steals too!
Apart from Molly,Boy Toy and Cake like lady gaga,im sorry to every1 i have offended.oh and f*** that dude who uses blue ivys name & a couple of navies i insulted yesterday,.excuse me mood swings.thank u
Girl bye *plays violin*
i was just issuing out my apology and you wanna shade me and isnt ur talent booty popin with molly??? and dont call me girl its mizz
?????
We’ll see how it goes. I guess it will be out in November as usual.
Unapologetic had so many potentials but for what its worth she carried that album with the release of diamonds alone! I think diamonds was definitely one of her most classic and memorable songs. Moreover, seeing that urban is back on top, i hope she goes in the opposite direction to stand out. Im pretty sure she will have some bangers. Whether she writes or not, im sold that she is 100 percent involved in the creative process of delivery. So im sure some of the best writers have reserved their best work for her! Because we all know the power in her name when it comes to slaying the charts. I actually believe her and bey can coexist and both still be prominent. So far im not enthused with any of the recent releases but jazmine sullivans dumb. Im excited to see where arianna will go with the chris breeezy release, and forever indebted to the wait for r8.
But Rihanna has been doing EDM since forever (plays SOS).
NO love bird these b****** fuming that Queen Rih Rih is trending all tha f****** time…
Rihanna made EDM. It wasn’t until the success of WFL until the basic b****** followed suit….
thes b****** aint never ready ofr when a real bad gyal steps in a change the game.
Mind you the hive is all high and mighty, if beyonce had released her album in the traditional way it would have totally flop, because other than DIL which is only certified platinum there is no big hits on that album.
Exactly! She has been on the edm train! Dominated it, and then left the trail fir the rest of the mileys, gagas, and selenas. Rih is always a step ahead when it comes to a creative new sound! Which is why she is always compared to any artist who is daring and outside of the box!
SOS was a sample of another song lol.
And if you knew anything about EDM, you’d know that DJs and producers who produce the music sample other songs all the time lol.
They sample songs that are from another genre such as R&B and make it EDM. That song already had its sound and Rihanna just used it.
Rihanna sampled the song and made it EDM. There’s no way SOS can fit in a rock genre like Merylin Manson fit it into rock; it was written with the intent of an EDM sound the way Rotem wanted.
‘
Again, you’re ignorant.
(Plays Please Don’t Stop The Music)2007
(Plays Photographs)2009
Don’t forget disturbia.
And pon de replay sis
Can’t believe I’m saying this, but we can’t pretend Gaga’s Fame/Fame Monster eras (2008-09) didn’t happen. There were some songs that tested the waters before her (but a few of them were very pop laced). Most of Gaga’s music mainly fitted into that genre. She made half the industry from 2010 – 2012 drown us with EDM!
can someone please tell me how to put picture on your avi. PLEASE!!!
Register your email (google “gravatar”)
Thanks
And SOS came out before EDM was popular. Let’s not forget Talk That Talk started the while ratchet urban movement.
YES if it wasn’t for TALK THAT Talk there would be no f****** Bangerz least we forget.
These b****** are deluded for days, talking to the hive is frustrating, and I’m not trained to deal with people who are special.
Yes Fresh Navi, the hives are ignorant, talking to them is like talking to a pack of retards.
People can say whatever they want, but TTT started this whole ratchet popstar trend.
I beg to differ i think birthday cake did
Nah bae.. if it wasn’t RIhanna’s style and IDGAF person and thug life weed smoking antics there would be no Miley Cyrus as we know her…
Rihanna started the whole bad gyal image
But as usual the pop girls will forever have Rihanna’s sloppy seconds
*Plays Tainted Love the ORIGINAL
b**** aint nobody on TGJ knows that song or who sings it…
you know why because said person is an irrelevant batch. How can you be the leader of a trend if nobody even knows who the f*** you are or even your song….
Niggah where is the logics i cannot and will not
And thats why you’re delusional.
I have been missing Nicki Minaj and Rihanna lately. Damn I am ready for them 🙂 And hopefully Ciara has a great and succesful albm.
Awwwww (:
So what does that make Marilyn Manson then?
Have you guys heard the song 2 On from Tinashe? Its such a club banger the girl is so cute i see her comin for wigs in the future.
Oh and the song was Produced by DJ mustard aswell
m.youtube.com/watch?v=-s7TCuCpB5c
Lmao at te hive sos and pon de replay were edm before edm was even popular
And talk that talk birthed miley . S*** rihanna birthed miley
Carmen made my day… can we say clueless? emmkay.
They’d be no bangerz, drunk in love, dark horse, do what you want…etc if it wasn’t for Talk That Talk (album).
Diva though.
But when has Beyonce ever been that ratchet in a s** way? Not until TTT happened.
Nobody went ratchet because of bey . She didn’t start any trend
But start with when has Rihanna ever had the whole bad b**** ‘im better than you’ persona? Not until ISAF happened. Just sayin.
Video Phone exists. Soldier exists.
Try again.
But u tried it . IASF came out in 2008 loud came out in 2010 and she definitely wasn’t ratchet in the loud era
And rated r was more dark and not ratchet.
IASF had bad b**** hood and ratchet before any Ri album
Check on It and Video Phone are s*** and ratchet.
Oh no, don’t worry about Bey. She’s almost double platinum and only 70,000 copies away from outselling Unapologetic, in less then 6 months.
After DIVA came HARD remember Navy?
Umm…there would definitely be a dil withor without ttt….Beyonce been ratched(diva) & sexual(naughty girl & speechless)
Diva was not ratchet, and Naughty Girl and speechless were more sensual than sexual. Birthday Cake, PIU and Cockiness were ratchet. From the beat to the lyrics.
Check On It is ratchet
Diva n Video Phone r definitely ratchet. Beat+Lyrics+ Music Video. So I don’t get why the Navy delude themselves by a hinking Beyonce is try a still Rihannas bad girl image, when Bey herself has been bad since DC’s “Soldier” . Don’t act Like y’all in the woods, n have no idea what’s been going on.
Thinkng* Tryna steal*
!!
I have a feeling this Ri album gonna be really Pop
Lmafoo. The Nazi think Rihanna invented secy n ratchet edginess. Have severals. Beyonce been hood n edgy when Rihanna wasn’t even a thot I mean thought
Wait? Beyonce was white untill “bow down” though
Stay on Topic.
Dont be fooled but the hate coming from NEW names on here. I see you Roaches.
I’m ready!!!
And @Lovebird to answer you question VIDEO PHONE
And check on it
!!
All rihanna will see is signs, all she’ll see is dolla signs 😉
So will Blue Ivys bank account
Let them know.
Clearly. Her mother owns a cammel. Cammel rides cost a bit of coin at high end amusement parks
Can you use your brains, if you have any? You come off as a 11 year old girl. You never stay on Topic and always talk about stupid, irrelevant s***. Same with that idiot who uses Blue Ivy’s name. I thought this site was for grown ppl?
You can try to drag, but still be logical and use your brain cells. Just saying.. Not Tryna start any cattiness
I just know riri is gonna slay 🙂
Yasss you got an avi
This is why Beyonce is trying to get her rated r on, Cheap ass PR stunt. Anyway, the girl who was meant to end her career, RITA WHORA, is fighting hard to get the number 1 in the uk.

THERE IS NO way back for you beyonce and the GP are getting tired of all your shock tactics and PR stunts.
Who is that fish mentioning like a I give a damn? Also why are the Using fake usernames to drag? Lol.
R8 is coming to slay the flubber with a cute little local hit and those basic payola using h***.
I’m more excited for Ciara’s album than nickis, I hope it’s a continuation of “Ciara”
Beyonce remains unbothered.
BYE
Even Ariana is a better singer, can’t even stand her annoying tone sometimes.
Rihanna will slay and the pressed HIVE plus the fake Mariah stans accounts will have to deal with it.
STFU b****
Beyonce always took someone’s style and sound. Don’t get me started on how B-Day was a try hard Amerie’s Touch album. Bey took that girl swag and RAN with it. Bey was not performing like this til after 05. She had the backup dancing, but after Touch, she got a LIVE band in 06.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dhxqqg5eck
The reach. Amerie aint the first nor last to use live band.
This was miss booty pop in 03.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LkENfmKS0rQ
2006, what a change.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbGPHRzZUOs
Well thank god the Hive clocked these Navy kids who think Ri did the whole cocky, ratchet s*** bad b**** thing first.
Obviously bey was influenced by amerie.
But Crazy in love came out before one thing.
i this will be her best she been taking a break not rushing to throw a first single #r8 cant wait
Yassss when this b**** takes her time she slayyyssss ! Look at loud! Every song on that album was a hittttt
but i have no ideal where she going with the style or the sound up beat or slow like diamond .. is she going for the dark goth look like in i heart radio .. or urban .. or edm .. im hype
