she is talented and an overall good performer. however the rate at which the singles are being released is pretty surprising, Umbrella is still @ No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, Shut Up and Drive has already climbed to No. 22 on Billboard Hot 100 and it has jumped to No. 65 on UK Singles Chart even though the song isn't even supposed to be released until September. Clearly there is no doubt she is having an incredibly successful year and album.
