#Unapologetic: Rihanna Readies ‘Interactive Experience’ For New Album

Published: Thursday 11th Oct 2012 by David

Let’s face it, when it comes to whipping up a buzz, no one does it better than the folk over at Roc Nation.

Hoping to enjoy monumental success with Rihanna‘s forthcoming album ‘Unapologetic’, the Entertainment group are readying the launch of an interactive campaign in aid of the release, unveiled by the singer’s official fan site, Rihanna Daily.

Details below…

Via Rihanna Daily:

“Following Rihanna‘s award winning social media marketing campaign last year, UNLOCKED, and as Forbes’ and Billboard’s #1 Social Media artist, she continues her digital media domination with #R7, launching on Monday, October 15th.

#R7 is an interactive gaming experience where fans visit www.Rihanna7.com and explore this site to “RIHveal” exclusive content and prizes. Each week fans are assigned weekly trivia questions. When answered correctly, fans have a new mission to exclusive Rihanna announcements and “RIHwards,” bringing fans closer to her 7th album, UNAPOLOGETIC.

“Worldwide superstar Rihanna – the “#1 Person On Facebook” with over 61.7 million Likes – has once again ignited record charts around the world with “Diamonds,” the fastest-rising single of her career to date, with first-week postings at #1 iTunes in 27 countries and Top 5 iTunes in 55 countries.

Now, Rihanna announces the global release of her 7th studio album for Island Def Jam in just seven years: UNAPOLOGETIC arrives in stores worldwide on Monday, November 19th.”

If ‘Diamonds‘ quality is anything to go by, we can’t wait to see what ‘Unapologetic’ delivers ‘The Navy’ and the world at large.

After all, despite her obvious shortcomings, we’d challenge anyone to deny the quality of Rihanna’s brand of Premium Pop, and her well oiled marketing machine.

      Check the writing credits of Rated R (her most crtically acclaimed album) and get back with me.

      And who the f*** cares if she writes her own songs or not…She still makes them a HIT!! Unlike people who get songs and can’t garner a top 20 hit! 🙂 Stay mad tho.

      • the real xoxo October 11, 2012

        Sharing a writing credit with 5 other writers doesnt make you a songwriter.
        “who cares if she writes her own songs or not” – This pretty much simplifies why nobody takes the navy seriously.

        Hmmmm XOXO Let youself keep right on trying to make it seem like Rih is any less of a artist because others or working behind the scenes with her .
        Welllllllllll one thing is for certain Beyonce has writers, producers, musician and even have a sister who can write her ass of and yo ass still want to try to nail Rihannas ass to the cross well keep those negative vibes going because it don’t matter because the dream made a killing on “Umbrella” and that song helped to really cement the deal with Rih, helped her to get her house in order and pay some bill. And as time goes on Rih is getting better with time, and theres not a phucking thing and of you can do to Knock Rihanna off Her ” A Game”
        you can gladly keep trying though.

      Hahahahaha, I said karma was gonna bite that h***** infected ass soon…I just didn’t know it’d be THIS soon!?? Lol.The way this album and lead single are failing to make waves at the top of the charts leaves me with no choice but to deem this album (before it is even released) an epic FLOP!!I thought after the flop that was TTT there simply was nowhere else to go but the top, but boy was I wrong!! Lmaoooo diamonds came and left just as fast as it came lol. No longevity is the shameless w****’s biggest problem. Which explains why all her songs have been at the summit for a week and fall again dramatically the following week, with the exception of a few of her songs. Karate..opp(I said I’ll stop shading this girl). Karrueche

        Haters and bey Hive…
        Billboard – Continuing the mineral motif after shouting out “yellow diamonds” on “We Found Love,” Rihanna implores her partner to “shine bright like a diamond” as her voice grasps at the upper tips of ecstasy. Produced by longtime collaborators Stargate as well as Benny Blanco, “Diamonds” notably slows the electronic stomp of previous lead singles “Only Girl (In The World)” and “We Found Love,” instead offering a lush, mid-tempo pool of synthesizers and Rihanna’s powerful pipes.

    • Jer October 11, 2012

      The mental illness from the BEY-sides. Talking s*** about Rihanna not writing sons. Beyawnce writing lyrics a producer gave her on a napkin DOES NOT make her a songwriter. Then you try to shade her for sharing writing credits. Smh. Thats all BeYAWNce ever did. Even got DROPPED from the writing credits for “Listen” by the Academy. Smh. SUCH CONTRIBUTIONS!!!!! Go die b****

        Haters and Bey Hive….
        Rolling Stone – Though she’s still riding high off her last album, last year’s Talk That Talk, Rihanna has already returned with a new single off her currently untitled upcoming album. “Diamonds” steadily pulses with slight orchestral touches and deliberate electronic rhythms, but the track’s production mainly stays out of Rihanna’s way, letting the pop star build hooks with layers of her voice. “We’re beautiful like diamonds in the sky,” she sings, unhurried over the uplifting track.

  4. damn October 11, 2012

    TO BE FAIR and totally honest this is a very innoviate marketing scheme. This may just encourage more people to buy her music. People don’t buy music not because its not great but simply because wheter or not they pay for their listening experience is the same. Thumbs up to rihana teams (not her) No shade intended just being honest for drumming up this innovatitive scheme and songs (this is shade) for her.

  5. Lax October 11, 2012

    With a great out look on her life she’s just so happy to be in the game.
    So happy to have been given a chance by the almighty and not Jayz to
    live, to love, to have fun and to keep many tongues wagging all over
    the world and its clear she’s still growing, learning and doing it her way.
    I MEAN JAY DID GIVE HER A CHANCE AND HIRED HER BUT , IT’S BY
    HER OWN BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS SHE CLIMBS, SHE CLIMBS SHE STRUGGLES, SHE KNOW HER OWN STRENGTH AND SHE HAVE NO
    PLANS OF GOING AWAY!
    PS
    You can be fair or be square in your OPINIONS of Her because at this time
    and point in her life her Motto is: “THERE AINT NO STOPPING HER NOW” WE GOT TO MOVE ON DOWN THE ROAD AND UP THE CHARTS!!!! RIH SAYS SHE LOVES KEEPING ALL OF HER BILLS PAID AND THAT “INCLUDES JAY” BECAUSE THEY ALL LOVE THAT FELLING OF FEELING GOOD AND FINANCES IN ORDER. That is what me and my family, friends and foes love paying them bills and living our lives like it’s golden.

    This is going to be a great album, since Rated R & Loud. Rihanna isn’t focused on touring this go around and I can’t wait to hear it.

    OF COURSE THE HATERS ARE UPSET AND PRESSED. I mean, who wouldn’t be??? #1 on R&B, and the success Diamonds has right now with no promo and video….SAYS A LOT!!!

  11. Rihanna black madonna October 11, 2012

    Beyonce album will not be coming out. It will be like Dr dre detox and forever be pushed back. Mark my words. Rita Ora task for 2012 was to stop things like Diamonds and the Cover from happening. She was meant to have shut Rih down, so she can breeze on it next year. Well, god reversed it and now the plan backfired and burnt and scared beyonce.

    Beyonce will never be to make cutting edge forward tracks that morph all genres

    She will never be able to out s** appeal or outdress Rih

    She will never shout down Twitter and the press for a single and LP cover

    She will never have the fastest selling single or go number 1 / top all over the world in an hour. She will never get number 1 without a video/ All these things she needs to outdo to stop Rihanna, she cannot. Not eve Crazy in love was like The Unapologetic era. This is Rih biggest era – the whole world is talking about this.

    Beyonce will retire, focus on her kid and do more charity work. She might still tour, but she will not be putting her energy into having to compete with Rihanna, Lady Gaga,Kesha, Katy Perry, Nicki Minaj ,Jessi J ( uk ) Emelie Sande ( uk ) and Lana Del Ray…..it is too much for an old woman who has never has time to rest to do

      • Rihanna black madonna October 11, 2012

        Only african americans care about beyonce. No one else does. She was cropped out the picture at Jay Z concert – the one Rih and Chris attended. Her new house of deron ad was completely ignored by the white media. Even being fired by Clint eastwood for scaring away male leads, has not generated huge stories. She has been ignored. She will not release this album, it is meant to come out next year and there is barely any news – this means she will not release it.

        Lady gaga f**** beyonce with pop
        Rihanna – f**** beyonce as black queen it girl

      I actually like Rita Ora and think she has a nice voice. I do however, think she was groomed to be Rihanna’s replacement! I find it interesting to hear folks in the media actually come out of their faces and finally admit that was the general understanding they got from JayZ’s personal, hands on approach to promoting her. Something they had not seen him do since Rihanna.

    First off, will you delusional Rihanna fans stop calling Rihanna a QUEEEN. Everyone knows theres only one queen and thats QUEEN BEY which her fans titled her with 1st. Secondly, I cant belivee the audacity of this b**** calling her album Seven, this highlights her lack of orginality copying Beys album name 4. She couldnt think of a more original album title. Lets see if she manages to be responsible for any creative input for this album since she has failed to do so in her others.

    Roc nation is really good at interesting promo. They make everything fun. Unless they come with a real smash single though, this album will fare far worse than ‘Talk that Talk’ did. No amount of Chris Brown press can save it.

    In saying that, it doesn’t matter. The album isn’t her main concern, it’s touring, selling perfumes, books, and other things. The music is just one element, the element that starts the machine rolling. If the album flops, we’ll still be treated to Rihanna every five seconds.

    • Rihanna black madonna October 11, 2012

      You are a very bitter, hateful woman. At least I hate on Rita cos she is a flop, Rihanna has never had her album pushed back in the USA.

      Now time to rip your fallacy comment to shreds: This is not Roc nation, she is signed to Defjam – LA reid is her former boss, LA REID has never worked for Roc nation, as that hood label use to be lop Rockafella with Damon Dash.

      Smash single? Can you not read, Diamonds is HER fasting selling single 1 in 27 countries and top 2 in 55 countries – it says in the f****** article. Who, this year, even last 5 years has performed like that without a video or promo? NAME A SINGER?

      TTT is still on the USA / UK CHART. IN the UK is outsells Rita Ora, which just came out. It is near 4 million. WFL has sold over 4 million. Whyb been sold a million in the USA and is still on billboard – it has been there or 6 months. WFL was her best video to date. Cake, Cockines, You da one and TTT are all gold with no video. Is that flop?

      Flop to me is Rita Ora failing to have ONE SINGLE HIT. That is flop.

      It is not up to press – the FANS WANT THE MUSIC, THAT WHY SHE IS THE ONLY BLACK WOMEN WHO SELL.S NO BLACK WOMAN HAS SOLD THIS YEAR- AND EVEN LAST YEAR, SHE EVEN OUTSELLS WHITE B****** LIKE RITA ORA. She even outsells Talents like Lana del ray

      Yeah, she got the fashion on lock – new clothing line With River lsland; 2 new movies; 2 new vogue covers; GQUS cover – her ist GQUS was the second biggest of that year – no black woman has had that acclaim. SHE IS THE ONLY FRONT COVERS OF MAGS and she can hold that for 5 years, as no black woman can challenge her.

      All your Rita Ora needs time to make it. This is showbiz, TIME IS MONEY AND TIME WAITS FOR NO ONE.

      PS: When does Rita ORA LP come out in the USA?

    • Rihanna black madonna October 11, 2012

      All of Rihanna’s LP have sold over a million and she always had smash hits who go platinum/ Even her debut sold 1.5 million in LP and 2.4 million singles.

      What has Rita Ora sold?

    • Rihanna black madonna October 11, 2012

      I have a feeling your are an older woman in your 30’s. Her success kills you. Bey you spent your life trying to make it and now you are 37 and washed up and Rih is living the life U WISH YOUR OLD ASS HAD.

      • Auntie_Jackie October 11, 2012

        Why you are writing paragraphs is beyond me. First of all, I’m a young gal, no where near 30. Second, I can care less about comparing her to Rita Ora, a new artist, when Rihanna has been in the game for 7 years.

        I’m an American, so I can give two sh*ts about a UK chart. She’s a global star, so good for her. Whether it’s Roc Nation or Def Jam, they have awesome promotion for her. They make everything fun and interactive, as I’ve said.

        Her personal life is largely what’s earned her covers and media attention, not her talent–which is largely why she struggles to sell albums, especially in the U.S. (excluding Good Girl Gone Bad). Diamonds is a good song, that I really like, but it’s not great. Even if ‘Diamonds’ doesn’t dominate, they’ll rush out another single that a sure hit. It is what it is.

She’s just one of those people that just “lives her life” and just happens to get attention by doing so. It’s effortless. This is one of the things that people find appealing about her. She’s raw, honest and as her upcoming album’s title would say, “UNAPOLOGETIC”. She may not always go about things in the right way, but what human “ALWAYS” have? This is why people can relate her. She makes mistakes and has made unwise decisions just like any other person. Too many actors, actresses, directors, producers and singers in Hollywood always want to try and maintain a “PERFECT IMAGE”. No one can relate to that, because “perfection” doesn’t exist. So, when you see someone that admits to being a “work in progress”, stumbles from time to time by way of speech as well as their actions, it’s refreshing to know that this person is “REAL” and that they will not get everything right, all of the time. This is what people see in her, and that’s why they can relate to her. It’s not just about talent alone, you have to have the personality to match.

    • MELODY2012 October 11, 2012

      Smart ass can you please tell me the purpose of having 2 accounts. Kelly speaks her mind in her name why would she change it?

      • Rihanna black madonna October 11, 2012

        I go by the blood pressure raising name of rihanna black madonna.

      • Slayty Perry October 11, 2012

        Melondy gurl, we all know your Kelly too

    • Lax October 12, 2012

      Bytch we know its KELLY what’s yo Phucking
      problem.

    This is why Rihanna stays winning. She at least tries to give her fans something different. She builds hype and is always connected on twitter and she pulls out corny s*** like this to keep people interested. Yal faves take note. While yal faves get their albums scrapped and pushed back, Rihanna serves that fire every year just like motherfucking Christmas. Surely as the sun rises theres a new Rihanna album for her stans thats 75% good songs. Rihanna knows the game and she plays it well. Yal faves need to getittogether.com

  25. JOHNVIDAL October 11, 2012

    Didn´t Gaga announced something like this (or bigger I suppose) a month ago for her new ArtPop album? I remeber you were all going crazy about Gaga doing too much and stupid things like that. But now Rihanna fans just say “she´s eating the world”? Cos of Facebook likes? 🙂

    • MACHIAVEL October 11, 2012

      Thiiiis!!!!!!!
      I Can’t How People Here Are Biased Toward Gaga, Calling Her All Types Of Ugly Names, Like Copycat, Attention W****, Needy… While They ALL Do The Same F***** Thing!
      But Guess What, If’s Negative When Lady Do It!

    • Benron (King Of The Navy) October 11, 2012

      Rihanna did this last year…

      and nobody remembers what Gaga does because she is an irrelivant w****.

Singles Ladies – flop internationally, hahahaha what kind of superstar is she when she was #68 in France and out of top 10 in all other European countries? Even with X Factor performance in France her singles couldn’t enter top 10 :S

      • Rihanna black madonna October 11, 2012

        Single ladies was only a hit in the USA, it has no cultural or commercial impact in Europe. Beyonce is not global.

      • Lax October 12, 2012

        @LICIKA,,,,Thanks for that, that is clear to those

    • zzzzzg October 11, 2012

      LOL delusional H** member! Diamond flopping?!! In your dreams

    • boopboop October 11, 2012

      it will be her 7th WORLDWIDE #1 album. rih don’t need to be #1 in the us to prove she’s relevant because she’s a GLOBAL SUPERSTAR. and even with no #1 album in the us, she’ll STILL s*** on many of your faves when it comes to WORLDWIDE popularity and influence!

    • mc the place to be!! October 12, 2012

      how is the song flopping when just came out a week or two ago its still getting debuts on charts ww dumb stan!!! atleast rihanna can debut high and dont have to worry about climbing it

  27. Rihanna black madonna October 11, 2012

    I am changing my name from Kelly to Rihanna black Madonna. A new potent name to match my potent blood pressure raising comments.

    • Peter Griffin October 11, 2012

      You think alot of yourself don’t you. Why don’t you do ‘Rihanna Black Madonna (Formerly Kelly)’.Ehhh…. See I’m The Brain and your Pinky.

      • Lax October 12, 2012

        Kelly you or driving them nutts, they just can’t stand a strong Navy Officer in the house , whos helping to Level the Playing field keep up the great work.

    • Mad-On-Her October 12, 2012

      OK, I have no real problem with Rihanna. But I take offence to her being referred to as ‘Black Madonna.’
      Rihanna and Madonna are comparable in terms of their huge amount of hits, and public fascination with them. But Madonna also changed pop music. An innovator. An artist. The most influential woman in popular music.
      Rihanna can not be compared to Madonna.
      I respect the fact Rihanna wants to be the black Madonna, and that she appreciates Madonna as the icon she is.
      But she will never, ever, ever be in that league. The best she can hope for is to be considered a peer to Beyonce, Gaga and Britney.
      You should change your name.

  28. MC October 11, 2012

    Didn’t Gaga say she was doing something like this? Whateves….

    • Benron (King Of The Navy) October 11, 2012

      Rihanna did this last year with #TTT its nothing knew MC.

  29. Queen Brit Brit October 11, 2012

    All of this and it still wont debut at #1 😀

    • boopboop October 11, 2012

      brit debuted at #1 with flop fatale and AFAIK, it STILL hasn’t SOLD even 1 million copies in the us after all this time. (SOLD, not SHIPPED, mind you!)

    • Lax October 12, 2012

      Queen Brit Brit You ass is a FAKE the real Britney Fans love Rihanna and the navy for the most part respects Britney Hustle.

  30. whyohwhy October 11, 2012

    Rihanna and her stans are so ORIGINAL!! Enought already from this girl who will do anything to be seen. Talk about the same thing! what are y’all calling this back to back mess she keeps coming up with. The same ole story, S**, LIES and VIDEOTAPES. Show, tell, me some growth going on with Rihanna. She cant grow delivering the same thing each time every year. It’s time for s** being her selling point all the TIME!!! too END…

    • Lax October 12, 2012

      And,,,,the Bey Hive is so “Desperate” and so hateful.

  31. boopboop October 11, 2012

    i can’t believe folks STILL harping on that “no #1 album” b*******!

    didn’t c-error have a #1 album in the us? where is she now? how high did “sorry i flopped” chart on the bb hot 100?

    chris brown “fortune” #1 with low sales and hasn’t even gone GOLD

    britney #1 album that got outsold by TALK THAT TALK, that came in at #4

    beyonce #1 album that got outsold by both LOUD and TALK THAT TALK

    didn’t ashanti have #1 album in her prime? now she can’t even get FLOPHEART released on time cuz no1 curr bout her no more

    • sharon October 12, 2012

      LMAO at sorry i flopped! ROTFL!

  32. boopboop October 11, 2012

    summa y’all just don’t like the fact that this so-call “singles artist” is doing BETTER than many of your faves IN SPITE of her not being the greatest singer or dancer! rih has looks and personality and charisma and that is what people connect with, along with her catchy hits. she is a GLOBAL POP STAR who ain’t goin nowhere any time soon, no matter how much you wish for her downfall!

    and even IF she DID fail, guess what? many of your faves will STILL be irrelevant, #1 albums and all! her failure ain’t gonna make your fave any more successful.

    • Lax October 12, 2012

      @BOOP,,,Tell It, Tell It, keep schooling their booty’s.

  33. Beyonce’s Weave October 11, 2012

    Hahahahaha, so I guess this site will suffer from a loss of traffic since everyone (both navy and haters) will be at Rihanna7 dot com. Why not get news and updates, plus interaction straight from the source instead of visiting some Z-rated, ghetto mess of a patch work copy and paste, WordPress template, designed by 3rd world programmers s***** site like “that hood juice”.

    No one’s name increases traffic for this site the way Rihanna does. People visit this site only for Rihanna and Nicki Minaj, now that Rihanna7 dot com will be launching soon, bye bye “That Hood Juice”. Like the saying goes, never bite the hand that feeds you. Guess you’re stuck with Rita Ora in your basement Samantha, lol.

  34. Arie October 12, 2012

    I take my hat off to Rihanna, very few artists can do what she does. I think I might just buy this one. I love the fact that she stopped trying to win over the US market and instead she is focusing on the Global market. I love the fact that she does not claim to be perfect which means alot of people can relate to that.

    • SHADE=DENIAL October 12, 2012

      Exactly!!!! 100% CO-SIGN!!!!!!!

    • Lax October 12, 2012

      @ARIE SO TRUE.

  35. Adrian October 12, 2012

    I’m gonna say this and be out, Rihanna was in her Prime in “LOUD” era
