Rihanna Gets A Release Date

posted by Sista on September 20th, 2009 at 10:52 pm

According to Play.com, Rihanna is scheduled to release her 4th full featured studio album on November 23rd. The as yet untitled venture is said to be edgier and angrier, with the first single on par to drop any day now. Ne-Yo, who produced Rihanna’s hit single “Take A Bow”, spilled the beans recently during an interview and said Rihanna “will say things on this album you have never heard her say before.” And while Ne-Yo may be taking the singer down the edgier angrier road, Akon, who is also collaboratinging with the Pop beauty, says he plans to lighten things up a bit- “I don’t want an angry Rihanna” he said.

Billboard.com also has an update on the singer’s lyrical ménage à trois with rappers Jay-Z and Kanye West. According to the musical daily the trios single “Run This Town” has climbed to #2 on the World Singles Chart.

Gallery Update: Rihanna spotted leaving the 40/40 Club over the weekend.

  1. I want…NEED an angry Rihanna…rock n’roll sounds PLEASE

  2. gggb is hard to top alota # 1’s on that album.

  3. I sweat to god, if she comes out with that “OH CHRIS BROWN HURT ME, I WAS SO LOST AND CONFUSED….I COULD’NT EAT OR SLEEP CRAP”, im going off, cause thats wrong….

  4. CANT WAIT I HAVE ALL HER ALBUMS SHE CAN SING

  5. LMAO@ Rihanna is a top selling record breaking artist/icon!!!!! now I am LMFAOOOOOOO because you don’t have to sing like Jennifer Hudson, Whitney, Mariah, Deborah Cox to sell! Ask Rihanna!!!!!

  6. KEEP IT REAL 4 EVER

    Game over Rhianna is going to bring the fire!!! I know her CD is going to go platinum right away the fans cannot get enough of her. I smell a world tour coming with Rhianna headlining. Go rhi rhi you are the baddest out there for as artist 30yrs and under. Keep doing you and she is always fly. That is why Jay Z keep her around.

  7. As a woman I respect Rih and how women are affected by the bad behaviors of a man you love. Strictly as an artist I like Chris better. I wonder if she’s going to spill more hot beans on Chris than what is already poured. I wish them both the best in life.

  8. When you say bring the fire! You talking about having some nice songs that dont require talent cause that’s what happen on GGGB. Rihanna can not sing, dance or entertain and we all know it so stop with the fire stuff. What you are going to get is some more highly produced tracks for a girl that has about as much talent as a dead ant..The only thing she is going to do is come butt naked this time around. Her live stuff as usual will be the same, she proved that singing with J with them veins popping out of her neck! Stop with the Rihanna stuff, to many other artist are coming and they are coming correct with talent. Quit putting your stock on a look instead of the real deal and that’s talent!

  9. That my girl regardless what anybody say. Go rhi-rhi.

  10. We will see if the music is as good as GGGB, I want the same Rock N Roll edge, ragga dancehall, pop and rnb blend that was on gggb , And keep it real You better recognize it lol, I hope to see her dance because i know she can dance her behind off, she better wine up on them ho-es ^^ and i hope her fans don’t only talk the talk but walk it out and go buy the cd IF it’s good, Only if it’s good, let’s not be mindless idiots ;) On another note that outfit and hair has got to go, I wanna see her with an afro or a bald head lol

  11. Sad thing is….she is still not going to sell over 100,000 copies in the first week!!! Just like the rest of the albums!! Just become a fashion model Rihanna!

    And whoever says Rihanna can sing, then you must be the Queen or King of England! LMAO!!!!

  12. Finally. I hope they don’t give my girl no pushbacks. Pushbacks are killa. And those pics, once again, she is absolutely stunning in a ugly ensomble. Rih Rih is fabolous, I can’t wait for the next album.

  13. @Bored-SO SAD BUT TRUE-i DARE SOME1 2 GO 2 HER CONCERT & COME BACK SAYING SHE KILLED IT. aFTER THE jAY=Z CONCERT, I WAS DONE. I NEVA KNEW SHE WAS THAT BAD, STAGE WISE, HER VOCALS WERE SUPRISING THE EXACT SAME ON THE SONG-DECENT, CUTE VOICE, BUT 2 PAY 2C HER-U MUST BE MAD.

  14. Yawn. I can see this already … she’s gonna try to be on some Private Dancer ‘I’m strong and fought back’ ish. I am sorry but I am not feeling her … all she does is walk around in pretty clothes. Next.

  15. voice

    you want her to dance but not “gyrate” correct?

  16. Rhianna can dance??? No, she just happens to be black so she got rhythm like the average black girl, but real dancing let’s leave that 2 the likes of Ciara, keri, Beyonce…but Rhi, naw just strut ma-that’s what u do best.

  17. Truthteller: I know! But then again i feel like sometimes they push the album back to add more material to it ya know?

  18. “she is absolutely stunning in a ugly ensomble.” ROTFL

  19. Can’t wait!

  20. @ Voice

    I agree, sometimes it is a good thing. Like with Keri Hilson, her CD probably wouldv’e been wack. But sometimes they push stuff back so much that it loses hype and people just get uninterested, I think thats what happened with Ciara. Anyways I don’t know why I’m trippin, Rihanna will own 2010.

  21. Let me find out who the bold ones are. Who will be going 2 her concert when he album comes out???

  22. PHILLY__STAND UP...

    PREEEEEETY GIRL RHI RHI….U SHOULD JUST TAKE JAY-Z…JUST TAKE HIM FROM BEY…

  23. yeah with all that she has been through I know she goin’ have a hot album letting all out….LITERALLY

  24. Edgier and angrier you don’t say?! lol

    I hope it’s not some psycho ish then again I might buy that lol.

    Oh Ruserious nooooooooo lol Keri can’t dance and neither can Betonce’ lol.

  25. They dance better than Rhianna.

  26. I only have one Rihanna album, Music of the Sun, which I bootlegged. GGGB wasn’t my cup of tea, mostly her vocals. Guess I wish her the best, though. Since ppl wanna bring her name up… At least if Rihanna releases an album, people will have something to do until Beyonce comes back from the two year break she says she wants to take.

  27. GGGB was good! It had alot of catchy songs.

    Idk why they told of a release date this early if it’s not set in stone because I know singers like to add and subtract and try to make things perfect but pushbacks will destroy her, we have seen it happen to many times now! I hope Rihanna can pull it of again she needs a lead single like Umbrella it carried the album to a new level in terms of popularity and sells!
