No lie. I tried a few years around 2006-2008. No luck.

Today I loaded the Rihanna station onto my Pandora for starters. A lot of pop stuff I usually only hear when I go to Hustler Hollywood. I gave most of it a thumbs down, except for the few tracks from Adele they played.

But I'm not giving up. Should I die because my eardrums exploded insid my brain, know that I think this forum rocks.

Later for now. I'm going back in for more.

Good luck! Send up a flare if you need help!

Rihanna, Beyonce, Britney, Kanye, Adele, Beyonce, Usher, Ne-yo, Fergie,and those idiots that "sing" about a G6. Hey, it's only day one so far. Oh, and some one off Madonna song.

My other Pandora stations include Classical Solo Piano, Sarah Vaughan, Duke Ellington, E-40 and Too $hort, Victor Wooten, Kraftwerk, Jacksons, New Edition, Full Force, The Deele, Tool, and various oldies stations. So, whay not give the new school stuff another chance....

It's quite evident that you're doing it wrong.

I wasn't being facetious lol. I mean if you are going to a Rhiana music channel..well you're not really going to end up with anything but some bool-shit.

This forum sometimes...

You won't come across that many listenable songs on 'Rihanna' radio.

What I advise you to do is create a station for 'Erotic City' 'Funk' 'More Bounce to the Ounce' 'Prince' 'Disco' 'Diamonds and Pearls' 'Shalamar' and 'Marvin Gaye' and you should be set

Today's popular mainstream music...yes that is the point.

Why, though? Why in the hell do you endure this shit knowing that you'll get out of it empty handed?

Don't let these fools in here brainwash you into thinking there's something wrong with your taste, Adisa. It is aaaalright to back the hell away from today's mainstream music

I don't know why you're even attempting .. firstly, as you're looking in the wrong place, I mean 'Rihanna' ain't the best place to start looking for quality & secondly, 95.5% of todays music is just smfh .. I don't understand how people don't retreat in disgust from what's currently out there, how do they NOT feel violated/tortured after being exposed to such racket?

I gave up on todays music a long time ago, I'd rather go back in time tbh & find what I've been missing out on

Sigh.

So this is how the day has gone so far, what I’ve subjected myself to.

First the Rihanna station:

Rihanna- Complicated

Adele – fogot to capture the title, some slow bluesy number. It was cool.

Jay-Z – forgot to capture the title,think I went to go pee or something.

Ciara – 1-2 Step. I remember this track when it was all over the place. It actually sounds decent on my headphones. Can’t lie, I was jamming to it a bit.

Rihanna - So Hard

Adele – Rolling in the deep. I didn’t like it

J. Timberlake - What Goes Around… it was actually ok at first until he started that falsetto adlibbing. I quickly gave it the thumbs down at that moment.

Usher - OMG. Perfect title. Come on Usher, we know you can do better.

(Had to switch to the Primus station and listen some Primus, Tool, Cake, Rage Against The Machine, etc.)

Okay back to the Rihanna station:

Rihanna - Take a Bow

Katy Perry - The One That Got Away. First ever Katy Perry song I heard. Hopefully the last

Nicki Minaj – Moment 4 Life. I like!

Maroon 5 – Moves Like Jagger. Quickly gave it a thumbs down .

Black Eyed Peas – Just Can’t Get Enough. I could.

Lady Gaga – Poker Face. I’d actually forgotten about Lady Gaga as she is near the end of her 15 minutes. This song was a big hit of hers, right? Why?

Had to stop and switch to the Afrika Bambaataa station. LL Cool J, Eric B. and Rakim, Chubb Rock, Stevie Wonder, EPMD, Newcleus, World’s Finest Supreme Team, Beastie Boys,Cybotron…

Day 2 is in the books.

Day 2 is in the books.

I like Adele, "1-2 Step," "Take a Bow," and "Poker Face." I love "So Hard" and "What Goes Around..." (the latter is up there with "Cry Me a River" and "Summer Love" as my favorites by JT).

"Moves Like Jagger" has to be the worst Maroon 5 song ever, but I like the group otherwise. Jay-Z is hit or miss (and mostly miss these days IMO).

It started out fine enough.

So u liked Nicki Minaj's "Moment For Life" but didn't like Adele's "Rolling In The Deep'???

For most people it's the exact opposite. They all on Adele's tip.

Apparently. It's by my choice that I'm even checking for the heffa at al right now. I couldn't tell you one song by her until last week when I started this thread.

Add Beyonce's "Party" to the list of I heard it last night at a private party I attended. Today I had to go to youtube and make sure it was Beyonce though, because I didn't want to accept that at first.

Hey, I doubt I will be purchasing any of this new shit that I may come acroos that I like. I'm open to the idea of mixing it up a bit. That is enuff for now.

I like that song! I didn't want to admit to liking a Beyonce song either It's easily the best song she's ever recorded. It has a nice throw-back vibe to it. If she would make more songs like this maybe I would like her.

The vibe and her VOICE. She wasn't sining in that obvious and annoying trademark of hers. And Andre 3000 killed it like he does EVERY song.

Yess. His verse was the highlight of that song. I usually like J. Cole, but his verse was meh.
