Rihanna Rides out with the Fans

In the musicindustry,some artists find itvery difficult to choose a single. One song could dictate whether an album becomes a success or a frowned upon flop. One singer decided to let her fans take care of this difficult task.

R&B sensation Rihanna picked her new single based on fan appreciation and downloading. According to MTV, the singer just had to look at iTunes downloads to see which songs she should release next.

Rihanna chose We Ride because it was the third most downloaded song off her album. It only stood behind the two previously released singles S.O.S. and the most recent Unfaithful.

The singer was pleased with the decision and actually claimed it was a great song for Summer. Expect We Ride to be her next single.

That's not where the Rihanna news stops. The singer has been flirting with new movie roles, but also claims nothing has been finalized. What has been confirmed is her new tour and the young star is currently on the road.
