"Russian Roulette" premieres November 6th!
Rihanna’s single “Russian Roulette” was super anticipated and, received mixed reviews after it was released. Some thought it was devil music, others found it great, while some remained iffy about it. Now, it has made it’s debut on the Billboard charts.
In it’s first week on the chart, Rihanna’s single has made it to #35 on the Billboard Pop 40. This track is the first released single off of her upcoming album, Rated R. The album has had a bunch of great influences from big names that Rihanna had enlisted to work on the LP.
Rick Ross was very confident in Rihanna's selling ability.
"Of course," Ross said about Rihanna's new album out-selling 50. "That's Rihanna, one of the most beautiful, talented human beings on the planet. You can't even say her name next to woodface. But more importantly, that's a nice line-up of artists. Birdman, that's my brother. I look at 50 Cent and Lady Gaga as the same. So I really recognize Lady Gaga, I mean Birdman and whoever else you said but at the same token but I feel like we've won already because the state that the industry is in, you know, it's hard to break new artists and you know, we've brought Triple C's to the table six months after me receiving the number one album [with Deeper Than Rap] and we pretty much did this hands-on by ourselves."

50 Cent recently confirmed reports of Before I Self Destruct dropping on the same day as pop stars Rihanna and Lady Gaga.
"I guess I should be devastated that I'm up against Justin Timberlake, Lady Gaga and Britney Spears?" 50 said in an interview. "This is a great competition, you mean to tell me I get the chance to go into a battle against pop singers? I don't see myself in competition with artists that aren't even in the same genre. Could you find a rapper for me to compete with please? Now I gotta fight Justin? I'm gonna fight him and kick his a**!" (The Canadian Press)
Fif has also called the album a prequel to his 2003 debut.
"Not particularly this song, but the entire project -- I meant for it to be a little harder and what I fell in love with about hip-hop and within hip-hop," 50 explained about his upcoming project. "I accomplished it. Before I Self Destruct is absolutely harder than Get Rich or Die Tryin' or other projects in between. The Massacre had some real aggressive content on it, but there were other things I wanted to do, like 'Ryder Music,' 'Baltimore Love Thing,' 'Build You Up,' featuring Jamie Foxx. This project, I kept all of those things out of it. I just made it what I wanted it to be. This album is my album right now. It's like the prequel to Get Rich -- the things I missed on that project."

Rihanna and Fif will also face-off against new artists like Cash Money Records' Jay Sean.
