After a tough year for the songstress, Rihanna is bursting back onto the music scene with a hot new album, according to her confidante and frequent collaborator Ne-Yo.

“It’s definitely more edgy than the way we’re used to seeing Rihanna. Let’s call it ‘liberated,’”

Ne-Yo told In Touch at an Alfani and GQ-hosted party for his charity, The Compound Foundation, in New York on October 5. The singer and producer, who is penning some tunes for the Barbadian beauty as she hits the recording studio, acknowledges that recent events may have influenced her new style. “It’s possible!” Ne-Yo added. Rihanna released her last album of fresh material, Good Girl Gone Bad, in the summer of 2007.

      5. She does not need to do any MORE promotion for this album. Talk about anticipation. the week in paris did it all for her.

        Method to the madness.

      15. …yeah kinda have a feeling too that before she does any promotion of the album on a tv show she will do a "big" interview….

        Comment by Lu — October 8, 2009 @ 12:44 am

      16. …any news about the photo shoot?…

        Comment by Lu — October 8, 2009 @ 12:45 am

      17. omg all these updates about album… I will just say one thing:

        "SO IT BEGINS"

        Comment by TheRocNation — October 8, 2009 @ 12:51 am

      18. I also think she will do big interview before she will release her album, it will be easier for her to talk once about what happened (of course without the details) and then concentrate on promotion of her album. If she won’t do one big interview, she will be asked in every interview about it.

      25. omg… i can't wait anymore

        Comment by MIA — October 8, 2009 @ 1:52 am

      26. @ Margaret…exactly….and on this interview she will be able to warn that it will be the only time that she will be talking about it (of course without the details)…cuz as u said in your post if she doesn't talk about it before the promotion they will try to ask her about it on every single interview…

        Comment by Lu — October 8, 2009 @ 2:11 am

      27. "Liberated", "raw", "human", "angrier", "more grown up" and "edgier" …. I'm REALLY looking forward to seeing what those adjectives people have been using to describe her and the album produce in the final product. :D I really think she's coming back blasting in a totally unexpected way. I, for one, can't wait!

        Comment by Smart — October 8, 2009 @ 2:25 am

      28. @ Smart…yup.. :-D

        Comment by Lu — October 8, 2009 @ 2:31 am

      29. @Margaret

        I agree but I don't know if that person should be Oprah. I can't speak for Rih but I didn't like the way Oprah tried to exploit the situation. I wonder if she would ever consider doing Larry King Live or Barbara Walters?

        Comment by TakeABow2 — October 8, 2009 @ 2:38 am

      30. @ TakeABow2 …yeah i'm wondering too who she will give the interview to….

        ..and among the options that u gave maybe Katie Couric could added to it….

        …i don't know…she could even surprise us by giving the interview to Oprah…we never know though…

        Comment by Lu — October 8, 2009 @ 2:47 am

      31. Can you tell me which talk shows are popular in USA (I heard about a few but I don’t know which ones are popular)? I want to know what choice Rihanna has (if she plans "big" interview).

        @ TakeABow2. I don't think it should be Oprah either, though I don't know why.

        Comment by Margaret — October 8, 2009 @ 2:51 am

      32. @ Margaret…it could be on Larry King Live with Larry King,it could be with Katie Couric who also do this type of exclusive interviews,it could be Oprah,it could be with Barbara Walters who also do exclusive interviews and it could be on Dateline with Diane Sawyer (who i personally don't like much cuz i think that sometimes she can be a lil agressive with her questions)…

        Comment by Lu — October 8, 2009 @ 3:07 am

      33. …if i forgot any name/show please feel free to add to it… ;-)

        Comment by Lu — October 8, 2009 @ 3:13 am

      34. @ Lu. I'm watching CNN from time to time so I know Larry King, I also know Barbara Walters and of course Oprah but this is first time I hear about Katie Couric and Diane Sawyer. So considering the fact I don't know Couric and Sawyer, I don't think Oprah and Larry King are a good idea (in Larry case you know who was there and maybe it sounds ridiculous but people will think she is copying him), so only Barbara Walters left. ;)

      44. @lu np anytime ok folks what if rihanna releases on NOV 24 the same day as gaga and britney

        Comment by hatin on the club — October 8, 2009 @ 4:46 am

      45. I dont think she will ever do a "big interview" about it. And at this point I hope she doesn't…I want the focus to be on her ALBUM.

        But IF she does an interview I would predict it to be either on ABC (GMA and Primetime) OR with People.

        People were one of the few that didnt run the photo.

        Comment by Avery — October 8, 2009 @ 4:55 am

      46. um I think she should go on larry king because he sent out a invitation for her to be on the show sometime ago and she hasn't been on. I think larry king show, ellen show, and the view would be good along with an SNL appearance and the rockofeller christmas tree lighting. and no free concert thing like the today show until the summer when they do it because it'll be to cold and in the summer it's fun and will be more people that will come out. oh and I want her to perform on dancing with the stars. that is my fav show!

        Comment by lilly — October 8, 2009 @ 4:55 am

      47. my friends look what it says on the website rihannaitalia.it

        :-D

        New look for Rihanna

        Today on Twitter there is no mention that Rihanna. From a man / woman who has worked for the photo shoot comes this statement:

        Just finished shooting one day with Rihanna – WAIT UNTIL YOU SEE HER NEW LOOK !!!!! WOWSERS !!!!! I love this chick she is so dope … ….

        Just finished the first day of photos for Rihanna … just wait and see his new look! I like this girl … she is so dope … ..

        OMG……….I can not wait to see

        Comment by ilcaba — October 8, 2009 @ 4:57 am

      48. Oh and X factor to I like that show. And some upcoming awards that she should perform is the mtv eroupe music awards, world music awards, amerincan music awards, soul trian music awards, grammy awards, brit awards and NRJ Awards those up coming music awards oh and the Golden Globes to but she could present.

        Comment by lilly — October 8, 2009 @ 4:58 am

      49. She's definitely going to have to do an interview whether she likes it or not. Like others have said, she should do one big interview with Barbara Walters or Diane Sawyer, and only talk about it once, and move on. It's too big not to talk about. If she does not address it, she will run into the question EVERYWHERE she goes. Plus how is she going to be going around promoting and album that people are describing as her being "liberating," "grown up" and "edgy" and she won't talk? No. That is not a good idea at all. The album and her image would just come off fake and contrived.

      52. @Michelle

        I totally agree. There's no getting around it, she is going to have to address the situation. She's not going to go into details and I don't expect her to, but it's something that will have to be addressed eventually. It's best to get it out of the way ASAP so that the focus will be on her music.

      56. so you dont wont her to talk because it might ruin her edgy image that sounds dumb but whatever lol.

        Comment by neenee — October 8, 2009 @ 5:47 am

      57. @ Michelle. I agree, interview is also very important for Rihanna's image. It’s hard to look edgy when you are running away from something. Many people probably won’t believe her new image if she won’t speak about the incident and things that happened after it. I know it’s easy for us to write what she should do and what she shouldn’t do but unfortunately this is what people expect from her and they will be disappointed when they won’t get it. Public opinion is very harsh and heartless sometimes.

        Comment by Margaret — October 8, 2009 @ 5:49 am

      58. im tired hearing about her clothes she needs come with music & perfromances period.

        Comment by neenee — October 8, 2009 @ 5:49 am

      59. rihanna got deal with it the media not going kiss your ass 247 well no unless your britney spears lol but even they can go hard on her. as she gets into her a 20's people are going to be harsh its happens to every artist.

      60. Has anyone heard any more news about the first single possibly dropping on tuesday?

        Comment by kennyfenty — October 8, 2009 @ 6:23 am

      61. the single could drop tomorrow or tuesday we don't know anything yet but she is going to tokyo tomorrow

        Comment by lilly — October 8, 2009 @ 7:14 am

      62. Regardless of whether she wants to or not she'll have to give one interview adressing the situation, otherwise she'll be asked about it in every interview she does….

        She doesnt need to go into detail about what happened, but its important that she sends out the right message, especially to her teenage fan-base that its never an acceptable situation to be in and that she's moved on….

        Comment by Lizzy.la.la — October 8, 2009 @ 7:15 am

      63. @ OoOshii … yeah..she probably will keep in secret the new look for awhile…
        (or not,this girl is so full of surprises that we never know what to expect…lol ) …

        ..i’m wondering if she will only reveal it in the new music video in order to make a surprise,cuz then she will have to be locked somewhere for awhile…lol…

        Comment by Lu — October 8, 2009 @ 4:36 pm
