      Another mess! Def jam and Rihanna
      why putting out two single to soon. OG and WMN doing well , please Rihanna needs to start up promo again. Just because you change you hair every three weeks. You needs to release a new song every three weeks. NO, NO, NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    • Nu Pow-e-R

      They really rushing a lil throu LOUD. But well. At the end of the day it's her music playing on the radio wherever you are and lightin' up the atmosphere. And both tracks have their special cool. So… it's good choices. There you go with it. ;)

      Now… "Cheers" to the freakin' weekend. I drink to that. :D

    • D!sturbia

      I don't think that S&M suits this period … the upcoming winter holidays …. i would have waited for 2011 and then release Man Down …. all the radio stations are full of commercial dancy music … we need a change , something different …. Man Down is a banger … so sad about not being the next single :(:(:(.

    • Dina

      i love R.M it’s doing good on itune

    • rihannanavybg

      ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS THIS: S&M IS A SMASH AND IT HAS TO BE RELEASED LATER, CAUSE IT DOES NOT FIT WITH THE SEASON MOOD AND IT'S A LITTLE BIT RUSHED BY THAT TIME!
      NEXT THING I'M SAYING IS THAT RAINING MEN HASNT ANY POTENTIAL! ( I HATE NICKI MINAJ, BUT THE BASIC REASON IS THAT THIS IS NOT CATCHY!)
      AND AT LAST: SINGLES SHOULD BE SKIN, MAN DOWN AND MAYBE CALIFORNIA KING BED!
      SORRY FOR THE CAPS, I'M REALLY DISAPPOINTED ABOUT THIS NEWS AND I THINK RIHANNA HAS TO HEAR FANS' OPINION!

    • S&M

      Rihanna is a bit to fast with the Release :s
      Hope it won't be a failure

      Rihanna <33

    • WIHTSIFY

      Only girl is still in the charts and what's my name rises. Who is that chick is on bilboard too and fly too…
      Wanna know what will happen in the next week. there are 4 songs with or of rihanna.
      she should wait with S&M and Raining Men eventough the songs are amazing

    • na na

      Thanks guys for your constructive input-I know Rihanna will LISTEN to her fans.Don't rush thru your album-pleassse."LOUD" has soooo many hits-BUT if u rush your singles out while u still have 2 chart stoppers-u gonna destroy ur album.TIMING IS EVERYTHING! Wait a couple more weeks&DO SOME PROMO-then drop 1 single.Dropping 2 singles at once is a GUARANTEE for NOT GETTING#1.It's been 2 weeks since u've been out-so some HOTTT PROMO is long over due.RiRi come back out looking HOTT-and DROP IT LIKE IT'S HOT-lol!But no more singles right now-TIMING IS EVERYTHING.We luv you!:$

    • LisaOPP

      In all honesty i think man down is the bomb
      I'm not really a fan of S&M

    • http://rihannadaily.com lilly

      MAN DOWN SHOULD BE THE NEXT URBAN SINGLE. FOR THE SUMMER.

      • http://twitter.com/KieranFenty @KieranFenty

        Cheers I think would be more successful summer single. Although I love Man Down I don't think it will be everyone's cup of my tea but Cheers has universal appeal. It reminds of what Rihanna would do to BEP's I Gotta Feeling.

    • http://rihannadaily.com lilly

      yeah rihanna and her label is rushing to quick!
      S&M shouldn't be released until January.
      same with Raining Men.

    • SocaKing

      Everyone seems to agree that she should not release these singles so soon. RIHANNA frequents her twitter page and even replies to comments. SO I think we should all TWEET her and let her know that RIHANNA NAVY is not ready for another single until 2011, if we all do it she would see it and might consider holding back.

    • http://twitter.com/KieranFenty @KieranFenty

      S&M is gonna be a huge international hit believe that! :D

      Raining Men will do great i'm sure. I just really excited of what Rihanna and Nicki come up with :D They are both outlandish mega superstars :D

    • Cathyhi5

      I believe S&M and Raining Men r official, but I dont believe their r any official date. These songs have been moving up on itunes especially S&M. The response for S&M have been very well received and the urban response for Raining Men is pretty good. So Rih and Def Jam must have been studyind and observing all this to think now or to soon want to release these songs. They also must be observing fans like u guys with ur views on releases as it must matter what her fans want too. Finally, its smart I think to want to do so now or soon building on the momentum of Rih and also Nicki Minaj’ recent successes, especially these past two weeks but I would want a holdoff since OG and WMN NAME r still top 10s n the concentration and focus still needs to be on them. We still should be focusing on WTC too since Rih is featured on that song with David Guetta.

      Just to poll… They both great songs… I'm not voting at all. :P

      Raining Men fits well on urban. It's Nicki's thing. I'd think she did that track herself. Did she?… Response?…
      S&M isn't really R&B, cause it's a lot of electro on it. But it'll make it. I think so. It sounds really good tho.

      I can't decide. There you go again. :D

    • http://twitter.com/RiRialltheway @RiRialltheway

      S&M sounds really good if they put out a good video i am sure it will be a success OG was the best dance song it was ruined by the video overall all the songs on LOUD are hits she just have to do more promo release one single with a good video videos play a great role when it come to promo

    • MyLene

      She is able to destroy her best friend katy perry for 2 minutes of glory … She is a joke … she neeed 2 choristes for support her all time … She talk about the girl dont like her because she is SEXY mouhahaha … WHAT IS THAT ? And LOUD is sooooo deep … She is not U2 ….

        what are you saying your comment make no sense or maybe I just don't understand what you wrote….. ???????

          Well Battle ship I don't know what the troll is ranting about either so don't worry about it.

      • nomore

        Makes sense to tell Rihanna and Def Jam, the decision makers. We can debate all we want but that's not going to get results.

    • Battle Ship

      S&M will be a success regardless. OG was not ruined by the video. The song as been out for 12 weeks; still in the top 5 and peaked at #1 on BB100. The video makes sense the title is Only Girl – the video reflect that.

    • Bella

      I heard Man Down today in Hot 97 which is an urban station so what is going on?????

      • Battle Ship

        they are playing most of the songs from LOUD. I hear LTWYL 2 almost daily on the radio. Haven't heard S&M but heard Raining Men.

      CUZ ITS RAINING MEN FAT BITCHES!!!

    • nomore

      So let's tell Def Jam what we think. I like what was said about S&M competing with Gaga's 1st single release. And you're right, if S&M is released now, come next year people won't be thinking much about it unless she's promoting and doing a ppearances which won't happen because she will start the Australian tour.

      • rihanna_holic

        U are ri8 …..
        she can beat that TRANY bitch with dildos

    • YOVANY

      S&M OK OK OK

    • Jeremy

      FYI it is not winter everywhere in the world. it is summer in Australia and rihanna has had the most #1s there than any other black female artist EVER. the us is not the whole world.

      • sky

    • Kemz

    • virgo

      Please wait until January for new singles! WMN is doing really well and OG is still doing great on the radio/charts. Def Jam is risking over saturation for no good reason. S&M can come in the New Year and RM doesn't need to come at all. WMN is already and "urban single" and Man Down is significantly better than RM to release as an urban single if they really have to do it like that. I hate the idea of releasing 4 singles in basically 3 months! The album isn't long enough to release this many songs so soon. I don't trust Def Jams decision making, especially if they are the same people who passed on Fire Bomb as a single for the Rated R era.

    • Michelle

      LMAO. These are just confirmation of the new singles. That doesn't mean they're getting released any time soon. Everyone needs to calm down.

    • rihanna_holic

      I am so excited …… especially for S&M video I hope she hires so PORN actresses and actors ….. { LoL }
      Sounds like there's more 2 #1 hit on BBH100 …….!!!!
      We're her NAVY and we've to believe in her decisions ……
      SO NAVY put ur FAITH in our QuEEn kk
      RiRi u are da best and U'll always be #1

    • http://twitter.com/kimsoutherngirl @kimsoutherngirl

      I think Rihanna needs to slow it down a bit and release another single in January/Feburary. Over-kill is not a good thing and with so many singles out, it will be an over-kill. I also hoped she would release California King Bed as the next single…I LOVE that song and it will prove to the haters that Rihanna can sing! I don't think S&M will be successful on the R&B charts…they will most likely play Raining Men before S&M.

    • c_beezzyy

      I agree with everyone. RM is really rushed and fast. S&M should be released later..Skin would go so far! It should be one of the singles for sure! And Man Down should also be released too! It's catchy and get's back to her island roots! I hope they chose the right singles and make a video for either Skin or Man Down!
