Rihanna’s new record could be as huge as Michael Jackson’s iconic ‘Thriller’ album!
According to Def Jam vice president Bu Thiam, the popstar’s next album is looking so impressive, he believes it may become the biggest seller of all time.
Making the bold claim in a Vibe blog post, the record exec said,
“Rihanna is coming along incredibly.
“I’m trying to push her to where every song will be a hit from one to 12. I’m talking about NO album fillers. Our bar for this album is Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’.”
“She has visual concepts for just about every song. It’s already giving me the feel of a timeless album, and right now is her time.”
The highly anticipated new record, due out next year, includes collaborations with Stargate, Ester Dean, Mel & Mus and Rocky City.
And that’s not all. Ne-Yo, Taio Cruz, The-Dream and David Guetta are all rumoured to be involved too.
Her songwriter Sean Garrett also told MTV that fans can expect more upbeat and energetic songs this time around.
"I can definitely say that her album is definitely gonna be way more exciting, happy," he said.
“I love Rihanna. She's fun, she's like a sister, and I tend to think she doesn't really take herself too seriously. And I think that's what this album is gonna be about."
