With new single ‘Kiss It Better’ sinking after hitting an early iceberg, Rihanna is wasting no time rolling out the campaign for its follow-up ‘Needed Me.’
The ‘ANTI’ track has established itself as a firm fan favorite, as evidenced by its rapid ascend on the Billboard Hot 100.
And while sales may not be Ms. Fenty’s forte, digital streaming certainly is. Clearly knowing this, RiRi is releasing the cut’s official video today.
Details below…
Posting on Instagram, the 28-year-old sprung a surprise on her Navy with news that the Harmony Korine directed video is due at lunchtime today.
After the non-event that was the ‘Kiss It’ visual (and the poor performance that followed), for RiRi’s sake’s the ‘Needed’ clip needs to have replay value.
Okay bish!! Sad KIB is flopping. If any of her tracks deserve mega success if should have been KIB! But like I said KIB is more of a Fan/Music Lover favorite.
Smh! MESS!

I wouldn’t say flopping just yet, it’s slaying on Pop radio with updates. It just broke the iTunes 100 last time I checked. I predict it’ll peak somewhere in the top 20.
The public does NOT want a pop ballad from her, they want a Dance/Attitude song from her BECAUSE SHE CANT SING. That KIB video was boring and cheap.
Rihanna reign is about OVER.
HDD is predicting that ‘ANTI’ may return to #1 next week.
.
OMG! Navy, a third non-consecutive week at #1 and ‘WORK’ just may (possibly) reign for a 10th week at #1 also.

What the actual fúćķ is going here? Why is ‘WORK’ & ‘ANTI’ such streaming beasts?

Oh lawd she came she saw and snatched everybody wigs the glue and thread is all over the streets this girl here and Sam gtfoh you should be posting who is really flopping your digs are getting old no one cares we all know you at the edge getting ready to jump
Anyway…
.
This video BETTER scalp ms bald! “Needed Me” is rising on every metric, FAST so it needs to SLAY.
.
By the way, I still want to give “Kiss It Better” at least THREE more weeks before we label it a “flop” as it’s gaining rapidly on Pop radio – it received the third most adds yesterday. That is huge.
KIB is a slow burner, give it some time.We might have a sleeper hit.Promo in the US is needed if we want to see it in the top 10. I want Needed Me video to shock me!
I Hope it’s on the same level as WFL,S&M,BBHMM .
I just posted about her dropping this video! Yesss! I know this is going to be good!!!!!????
I honestly can’t get into this song
We know you hives do not give a f*** about Rihanna this is not a peace rally yall come and bash rih all day everyday hop off her coattails this is not joining of the jedi forces we all know the hives hate rih so calling cinnamon and molly a racist is bull when yall sit here calling rih names
Where’s our f*** to give? because we still can’t seem to find it….
Smart move since its slaying on the charts. I just knew Kiss it better would be a top 10, one of my favs on the album.
KIB THE SONG? DOPE. THE VIDEO IS TRASH.
Kib is good simple the songs speaks for itself she did not need all that stuff in KIB video people should realize a song do not need all the car chasing and luxury in it she cannot please everyone
And SCREAMING at Molly & Jackie exposing themselves yesterday ☕️
Kiii!!! Bish whaaaa????
Between you dragging them and their exposure I was getting my entire life. I wouldn’t be surprised if Molly was trolling as Cinnamon Toast Crunch to??.
Lmfao!!! MESS!! So the ZSquad has officially been reduced to 3 stans ????
@weezy
Well, Molly and CinnaRACIST are active members of the Ku Klux Klan . So I wouldn’t be surprised
Lol what’s the tea girl?

Wow the NFl even had to make accommodations for the Queen Bey
She didn’t come to play, she came to slay!
Yas bish!! While these other acts are working around the NFL’s schedule, the NFL is working around Beyoncé schedule kiii!! They know their venues will get PAID!!!
Girl die. There is no tea and there was no exposure B****. Worry about Weazel and his missing album h**.
Kiii “And there was no exposure” LMFAO!!! More self exposing by claiming your alter egos werent exposed ????!! BITXH DRAG YOURSELF ON OUTTA THIS POST!
Receipts of this “self exposure “? Y’all always claim Cinnamon Girl never has receipts, but where are yours f**? And do you b****** ever sleep/log off? Kii get a LIFE!
One of the strongest talks from the album. My favorite. Between this and Lemonade on Sunday i can’t with these two. I rep both. #BeyHanna
Oh i’ve just seen David he is cute,
We know it’s you David so just come out and play
I’m ready
I do agree, love Needed Me… Hell the entire album but I wish Kiss It Better was doing its numbers but the Grammy committee will it it up since its been officially released as a single.
@HailBeysus
Off topic! What do you think about CinnaRACIST remedial ass trying to claim that MJ wasn’t black listed by the media ?

Michael was never blacklisted. His albums still went platinum. His tours still sold out. It was huge news all around the world when he died. His death broke the internet
She’s fuxking stupid point blank! I even posted a clip of him saying it himself! The bitxh is full of lies! I refuse to give a dumb ass anymore of my time. She’ll collect dust along side the other rag dolls I’ve gotten tired of lol!
I told you that her dumb ass wasn’t a U.S. citizen. She had the audacity to say that she was from LA ROFL. Everybody who lives in the states knows that MJ was blacklisted and Janet was too after her halftime show performance.
CinnaRACIST deserves to be deported back to whatever 3rd world wasteland that she came from
LMMFGDAO!!!! NOT “CinnaRACIST deserves to be deported back to whatever 3rd world wasteland that she came from” Bitxh I FLATLINED!!!

Týler is a cool dude… LMAO! Aside from when he’s not shading Rihanna, he makes me laugh though I can’t complain because there are several Navy members on this page who just ruthlessly attack Bey. for no reason!
Tylerr redd has been trying me with his racist antics for ages.
I do drag bey for no reason too sometimes but I do give the blonde woman credit when it’s due.

bae will not like that
I hate Kiss it better.I tried to like it but I just don’t.I love Unapologetic more than Anti tbh.Lost In paradise,no love allowed,love without tragedy etc were solid.Anti sounds like trash to me.No shade
Rihanna has been lazy this era but what’s new.I have never see an artist who is so lowsy with their fans and craft.What the hell was that kiss it better video.It was like the lost or cut out versions of Drunk in love,I bet and mine.Keyword cut out

Hahahahahaha
I’m here zaddy
Next week Kiss it better will go back up since its been picked up more . Her and Beyonce are smart to release songs and material while their on tour. Each night people gonna go home after the concerts and stream the hell out of the music lol
Yes, cannot wait.
‘
Oh and Kiss it better has started rising on iTunes.
I wonder if this is true. If there is another anti coming out… I know she has two new songs. “Nothing promised” and this new song.
https://www.google.com/amp/amp.www.complex.com/music/2016/04/cardo-interview-on-working-with-kendrick-lamar-hints-rihanna-has-another-anti?client=safari#
Another song that will out chart FLOPmation!!!
And every Ciara song released since Like a Boy
Kiss It Better is not a flop! KIB was released during the highest point of Work where Top 40 will generally only service one record per artist at a time. As soon as Work dies down, give KIB at least 3 weeks before you call it a flop. Furthermore, Needed Me is killing the game further than I ever expected on urban radio. Good job Rih, can’t wait to see the video.
I hope “needed me ” video slays I wasn’t feeling KIB video and that’s my favorite song on the album . But I think needed me will slay ! I’m loving it this week Rihanna today & bey on Saturday!! My queens!
Video video video, streaming streaming streaming, skin skin skin LOL It´s pathetic that this formula gives you hit singles nowadays. Unless you are Bruno Mars or some other real talent out there who is actually allowed to be on mainstream I suppose you have to go for the streaming route 🙂
ANTi Era just won’t let up ? , I’m proud of Rihanna she isn’t bothered by other competition cause she don’t make it about them , she makes it about her fans and music and she’s almost to a legendary status , right beside Mariah & if she beat Mariah Carey lol what can you do ? Rihanna music and success speaks for itself ? can’t hate on RiRi , they downplay her music , doubted that her album won’t be good , and the same ones boppin to ANTi so stop being a hater and just enjoy the music , f*** the album sales and charts ? …
I can’t wait to see her in that sheer blue dress with that gun in her hand. I just KNOW that she’s about to get payback and body someone in this video….and I’m completely here for it. I really hope this’ll be another Hot 100 #1 for her. Let’s stream the hell out of the single and video to make sure.
I don’t understand the hate on ANTI , it’s my favorite album from her musically behind Rated R . Unapologetic was dope but I like ANTI better . I think Rihanna should continue to go the dark route but do a couple more uptempo dark type records
The video better slay!! Female version of Cry me a River is coming!!!
Hope she does release a second Anti album with two other new songs and the Need me video is already out on Tdail
