Beyonce Wins, Rihanna New Album Release Hoax? Fake Kanye West 'Surprise' Angers Twitter Fans

Rumors initially suggested that Rihanna would surprise #TeamNavy with a slew of new music premieres over the past weekend. Well, that didn't happen, and now several Twitter fans are extremely peeved:

@Hanaweezy: "I'm tired of fake 'R8' release dates omg, just drop the f*cking album @rihanna."

@AROnavy  Jul 22: "Rihanna doing everything except #R8 album. Sad but true."

@RihannaNavyLdnX: "@Rihanna loves teasing us 3 singles and no album... I can't take the suspense [crying]."

@Boitshepo_Holy: "did Rihanna forget that she promised us an album??"

@not2awful  Jul 11: "Rihanna please give us news on your new album. We're waiting. We're desperate. We're sad. We're needy."

@iDreamRihanna: "Three years without a new album and Rihanna is still selling out effortlessly. This is the universe telling her to release new music."

@robzdaone: "Rihanna has to explain why it took her this long to release her album in her 'thank you' column at R8's booklet."

@stylin_profiln: "@rihanna you know you my main bihh, but you gonna catch these [punches] if an album don't come out soon... I'm not phresh off the runway no more: "

@RihXTPRXLoreen: "#MakeLifeBetterIn3Words Rihanna Releases Album."

@robertkessler: "Tomorrow, August 15, 2015, is the 1000th day since Rihanna has released a new album. This torture must end now. #SaveUsRihanna."

And it's true - Rih's successful seventh studio album Unapologetic was released back on November 19, 2012.

So, what's with the delay?

Remember, RiRi's ultimate hip-hop "frenemy" Beyonce shocked #TeamBeyHive back in the fall by dropping an entire album with no hint or warning. So perhaps Jay-Z's wife didn't want the 27-year-old Barbadian beauty to "steal" her thunder? If Bey holds such power to block the "FourFiveSecond" songstress' official release, wonder how the infamous BadGal might respond? Well, stay tuned for further updates! Do MstarsNews readers still hope that Rih's highly-anticipated new album might hit airwaves before the end of the summer?
