After much anticipation, Rihanna finally dropped her eight studio album, ANTI, today for streaming and purchase on TIDAL.
The 13-track standard version is available today (Jan. 28), and tomorrow (Jan. 29), the 16 track deluxe version will be available. Streaming will be available for TIDAL subscribers for one week (stream here.)
Download ANTI from Rihanna’s artist page here. Initially, downloads will be available exclusively on TIDAL via a limited supply of complementary download codes provided as a gift from Rihanna and Samsung. Each complementary download will come with a 60-day free trail of TIDAL.com. Once all codes are used, anyone will be able to purchase the album via the TIDAL download store.
Complicated, I know.
Meanwhile, RiRi is gearing up for the ANTI World Tour kicking off on Feb 26th in San Diego.
And after a rough roll-out (and a mediocre first single “Work”), it will be interesting to see how this will translate into sales.
