Pray: Rihanna Readies New Album
Written by Trent | Filed under Rihanna
Rihanna stars in her 'You Da One' video.
Rihanna only released her ‘Talk That Talk’ album in November but she is already planning a followup to the record. In fact, the inescapable Barbadian has started working on the creative direction of her 7th studio album and her team has begun collecting beats for the project.
Although Rihanna has released a new studio album in every year since her debut – with the exception of 2008 – her admission of a 7th record is quite surprising since she has yet to premiere the video for her latest ‘Talk That Talk’ single, ‘Where Have You Been’. Additionally, ‘Talk That Talk’ has thus far sold less than 780K copies.
Read what Rihanna, who is a confessed workaholic, had to say about her new album below:
“I’m definitely thinking about the next record. I’m a multi-tasker so,” Rihanna told Capital FM’s showbiz reporter Kevin Hughes last night (29th March). “Right now we’re working on collecting and creating the sound first before we even start working on the lyrical direction or melodies.
“I kind of have an idea though, and it’s very rough right now,” Rihanna teased. “So I’m eager to start that.”

Rihanna is a Pop star and annual offerings is not uncommon for such acts but she has released and promoted new material continuously since her debut. When exactly is she supposed to rest and reflect on her life experiences so that she could create a product of actual quality?
We all know what happens to acts when they work continuously without extended pauses – thank you, Britney Spears and Mariah Carey – and the risks of such schedules. Additionally, I don’t know how much more of Rihanna’s ‘singing’ my ears could handle. What do we have to do to end this madness?
Thoughts?

Again…
I think she makes great dance music, I think when it comes to that genre there can never really be enough, who doesn’t wanna dance?lol
So she evidently didn’t get the letter that I sent her about talking 2 years off. Maybe I need to rewrite and resend it because this madness needs to stop before she ends up losing her mind completely.
-_____- She’s going to work herself to death, BUT, Rihanna knows she can’t take a long break, so…yea.
She may be afraid she would fade but I think a real break will allow her to grow and mature musically.
Ri can’t take a long break, her fans would 4get about her
She has 2 work consistently
I am on my knees!!
She needs to sit down. I liked the break that we got when Chris Brown had beat her down, it made me miss her lol
Talk that Talk is shit, so I am glad she making a new album, but I want her to take her time and actually work on the album like take a year or 2.
Can we talk about this .gif tho PERFECTION. *sigh* Can we honestly say we didn’t see this coming???
Well when those other so called r&b singers make something worth listening to, then let Rhi Rhi do her.
she needs to take a rest, seriously
Who cares if she does or not ! Money waits for no one and if you take a break you miss out on cash.
If we thought Mariah and Britney breakdown was someshit, I can only imagine what Rihanna’s will be like….Especially if Rita Ora becomes the star Roc Nation is positioning her to be or maybe Chris and K. will get married….I think Rihanna will luck cute in a straight jacket. p.s. Trent, this “excerpt” is months old… i see you taking journalism notes from your former employer @Sam though, shady shady shady.
LMFAO AT THE TITLE!!!! We need to pray to Allah,God,Budah,Whitney Houston!!!
She cant sing…(especially live) she really cant dance for shit i think she really needs to take a 3 or 4 year break and study what being a true artist really is and go take professional singing lessons because she has no vocals at all she cant even hit her own audio vocals correctly and cant sing without back up music smfh……… but hey i mean with a career like hers (no #1) albums and all these unloyal fans a break really would destroy her career lmao soon she’ll have to do another chris brown incident to become relevant again….
Ooooo I know her next PR she can do a song w/Chris and Drake it will be the remake of MJ and Paul McCarthy. the Girl is Mine except it will be the B***h is Mine SIB e she loves shock values.
Her music doesn’t need a lot of thinking (not for her, at least) so Keep it going, girl. If an empty message is not sent continously it’ll be forgotten like upcomming Gaga’s end.
maybe if she works herself to death we will never have to hear from her again and all this madness will stop
As much as I love this damn girl, the production is ALL she needs to be worried about.. she needs a break.. she needs to watch her Jingle Bell Ball performances and learn what strenuous activity does to her!!!!
LMAO at you using a gif of the 1 second Kathy Griffin is in that movie
[...] Pray: Rihanna Readies New Album [...]
Is she on crack? The whole reason “TTT” is under performing is because she released it so soon after “LOUD” she needs to give US a break never mind herself…
