I do agree that it really is very "assembly line", but then I think with an "artist" like Rihanna, why not? If it was Madonna or GaGa just churning out mediocre stuff, I'd be gutted, but Rihanna gets songs written and produced for her, so she might as well go down this route!

precisely. it's not like she's sickenly overexposed, which is weird given her constant chart presence over the past few years. she delivers the catchy harmless pop tunes everyone expects from her and that's about it.

Exactly. She's not really an "in your face" artist like GaGa or Madonna, who people can get quite fed up with if they're overexposed. Rihanna has a relatively low profile despite having so many hits constantly playing on radio. Also, I think an artist like her could easily be forgotten about if she didn't keep releasing stuff. They're wise to keep her on the hamster wheel for as long as it's working.

The official lyrics!

We Found Love

Yellow diamonds in the light
And we're standing side by side
As your shadow crosses mine
What it takes to come alive

It's the way I'm feeling I just can't deny
But I've gotta let it go

We found love in a hopeless place
We found love in a hopeless place
We found love in a hopeless place
We found love in a hopeless place

Shine a light through an open door
Love and life I will divide
Turn away cause I need you more
Feel the heartbeat in my mind

It's the way I'm feeling I just can't deny
But I've gotta let it go

We found love in a hopeless place
We found love in a hopeless place
We found love in a hopeless place
We found love in a hopeless place

"We Found Love" is out there now. I have to say I really like it! It's very, very simple and light, but very catchy and enjoyable!

I sometimes wonder if Rihanna has an incurable disease or knows the exact time and date of her death.
Therefore she's farting out singles and albums while there's air left in her.

Fair play to her though.... she won't be remembered in 30 years like Madonna, so she's going to make the most of it while she can.

Yeah, I definitely think it's the right thing to do for an "artist" like her. She makes fast-food style pop music, so she might as well churn it out while people remain interested.

According to Billboard.com the album has a release date of Nov 21st. Her 6th album in 7 years.

Does the song feel kind of 'last year' to anyone else? It's cute but the cheesy eurotrance has been done before (and better) by both Calvin Harris and Rihanna herself.

It's certainly nothing new, but I still really like it. It's so catchy and effortless and bouncy. More like a summer single than an autumn one.

Artists used to release a new album per year decades ago. :sadbitch:

Rihanna has never, even been anything other than generic. It's what she does, but she does it well!
