Bits Journal #3

OK, I haven’t my Bits Journal article since 1 month ago. So let’s talk about more random Bits Journal articles. Shall we?


It appears that Rihanna will be releasing her 8th album, R8. It's been almost 2 years since Rihanna dropped her first consecutive #1 album Unapologetic, her fourth number 1 album, and we are more than ready for her next. That’s right, we’re talking about R8.

It appears that R8 will be her first surprise album. So, what can we expect from Rihanna or R8? Ne-Yo praises Rihanna's 'R8' Album, he says it's 'Absolutely Incredible'. In a recent interview with UK’s Capital XTRA, Ne-Yo revealed that he has worked with RiRi on the project, stating that the new material might earn her new fans.

“The stuff I've heard is absolutely incredible. I can’t speak on what it sounds like because I’ll get in trouble. But I definitely feel like people are gonna enjoy it,” Ne-Yo said. “Anybody that’s a Rihanna fan is gonna stay a Rihanna fan, and anybody that’s not might become a Rihanna fan behind what’s coming. Just gear up for it.”

Pretty cool, Ne-Yo. OK, let’s talk about another random Bits Journal subject. So I was thinking Adele. So, let’s check out Adele.


On October 9, of this year, Adele's label XL revealed that the singer's new album will not be released in 2014. That’s right, Adele's new album not due until 2015. That means, no new Adele album until at least 2015. Adele fans will have to wait until at least next year for a new album, according to a statement from her label tucked in a new financial report. In addition, Adele will not tour in 2015. Sounds like a great move. Let’s hope Adele will not end up like Avril Lavigne did back in 2007-2011 where RCA butchered her fourth album, Goodbye Lullaby and force Avril Lavigne to put bratty songs produced by Max Martin (What The Hell and Smile) into Goodbye Lullaby instead of trying something new each time because RCA only wants commercial hits, not different experiments. Good thing she got out of RCA by the time her Goodbye Lullaby bratty songs ruined Goodbye Lullaby and having this album tanked at the charts. Good thing Adele won’t do that unlike Avril Lavigne.

OK, Adele is done. Now, let’s talk about another random Bits Journal subject. Hey, I know. How about Selena Gomez. Let’s do it.


Following Carrie Underwood releasing her complication album, Greatest Hits: Decade #1 and her number 1 2014 single, Something In The Water, Selena Gomez will also release her own compilation album, For You. Like Carrie Underwood, Selena Gomez will also have her own compilation single, The Heart Wants What It Wants.

Now, as you may know that, The Heart Wants What It Wants is about the turbulence of Gomez's highly-publicized relationship with the awful singer Justin Bieber (Boo!). The accompanying music video for the song was premiered on November 6, 2014 (the same day Carrie Underwood released her Something In The Water uploaded to Vevo), alongside the premiere of the song itself. The song sold 102,000 copies in four days and debuted at No. 6 on the Digital Songs chart and at No. 25 on the Billboard Hot 100. According to Mediabase, “The Heart Wants What It Wants” pulled in a listening audience of 10.061 million on its first day on radio. Not bad for a Selena Gomez debut.

Following the release of The Heart Wants What It Wants, the music video gained more than 39 million views on Vevo and Selena Gomez performed The Heart Wants What It Wants at the American Music Awards of 2014 for the first time. According to MTV.com, ‘Selena Gomez's Tearful, Emotional Performance Of 'The Heart Wants What It Wants' Will Leave You Sobbing’. Wow, it looks like Selena Gomez and Carrie Underwood might team up with each other one day and perform a cool pop single duet after she is having a baby boy. Selena Gomez had listened to Carrie Underwood’s Something In The Water and Carrie Underwood praised Selena Gomez. So it looks like Carrie Underwood might listen to Selena Gomez’s The Heart Wants What It Wants.

OK, that’s it for this Bits Journal article.

So what do you think about this article regarding of Rihanna’s R8 album, Adele’s 2015 album or Selena Gomez’s The Heart Wants What It Wants?
