Creyk 17,822 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 It's been so long since the album cover was revealed. I wish she would release a single teaser 30 second long clip or something Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry 26,836 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 All these black artists seem to be acting as if they're the epitome of artistic all of a sudden; Nicki, Kanye, Rih, Bey, Jay they all think that money & popularity magically makes them artistic when on their previous works they've never mentioned art, artistic references, artists or anything. I'm not saying Gaga is some magically new and original person but it's obvious Gaga has been on this from the beginning and before her career, she's been smart about it. Her attitude clearly has set trends amongst the industry never mind how her music changed the trend on radio from alt & sad to bubbly and electronic. But on ANTI, let's be real here the only decent song so far has been BBHMM but it was still pretty bad and more kanye than rihanna, the cover is good i love it but let's not pretend all these celebrities are suddenly artists or art enthusiasts when they've not shown any influences before. Rihanna is still a celebrity and still needs autotune and needs writing CAMPS or have anything to do with the actual production of a song. Sure she can listen to it and say if she likes it or not but she can hardly do anything else but stand there and pretend she knows what she's doing. This isn't a drag either it's fact in all honesty Well I can't speak for the others because I don't know but Kanye has long been interested in art. He even got a scholarship to an art school in Chicago when he was in his late teens and had been drawing and into literature from an early age too. He's been pretty explicit about those interests throughout his career. He called his third album 'pop art' and talked about bringing art into pop music five years before ARTPOP was released. Like I said, can't really speak for the others but... not Kanye. The extent to how successful he has been with those references is debatable but the interest and influence has always been there. I also don't think there's anything wrong with musicians trying to push themselves further and explore different lanes, either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Higher 2,406 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 It's been so long since the album cover was revealed. I wish she would release a single teaser 30 second long clip or something Nobody has seen her since she released the cover and that was like 15 days ago. She's up to something. I think she's waiting for Kanye to finish the production since he's the executive producer. Finally feeling free for the night, I got no worries. Finally got a claim on my life, baby, c'est la vie. ☄️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teri Hatcher 2,053 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Why is she promoting a new album when she didn't even release "R8" yet By the time you reach the end of this sentence, it'll be too late to realize I just wasted your time with a pointless sig.

mic 1,415 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Her PR team tries to make her look so indie this time around. They flop so hard on this, first the gap between singles and album, now the cover and title... Poor Riri she probably thinks everything is gonna be ok.

jojuun 4,159 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I love Rihanna but let's not kid ourselves. If she's releasing a single one of these days, it'll be drowned out by Adele. Same for a November release of the album. #R82016 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rihanna needs to plan out her era and have a decent release for the next single. But a November album release looks really bad to me at this point. Justin, 1D, Adele... When is she going to release? Next week? The third week when 1D will still be going against JB? And the last one is pure Adele, that's a safe bet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mic 1,415 Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 If she aims for #1 then she has to postpone the album to like February (then realistically 25 will fall from first spot lol), maybe she can release next single in November but by that time Adele can strike with second one maybe. Such a disaster for her haha Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
