I can't stand her

HOWEVER...her new album is my sh*t. I hate to admit it

Funny thing is, it immediately made me think of P when I heard it because of that guitar. I swear I can picture him playing it.

I find it funny because everyone gives me so much crap for not liking Rihanna or Beyonce. I'm like... They have songs that I like but I can't say I'm a fan of either

Not Bey either

Apart from tracks like Umbrella & Work, the only other thing I like about Rihanna is her booty.

Nope! I think many people like them just because everybody else does. I can live without both of 'em lol

Still can't say I'm truly a Rihanna fan but I've warmed up to her since the start of this year when Anti dropped. I like this sublime Rihanna more than the always in your face with annoying hit singles Rihanna from 2010-11.

In cool with that "warming up" is better than nothing

No U didnt

What do u think? Yay or NEIGGGHHHH. Say what u want if she can sing, that goat can sang.

She doesnt have any classic albums but if anything Anti is her most cohesive at least and not all over the place musically.

She has a nasal voice which deteres me from listening to more than three to four of her songs at a time, however I do admit she has some really good songs under her belt..

Where Have you Been I mixed with The Human Body once and it never sounded so right together

Had to have this on vinyl for that instrumental tho

VERY nasally but effective lyrically. They dont play this one anymore

She always said she wanted to be the black Madonna she got it under her belt so far

Have you seen Bilboard's Love On The Brain performance is amzing and the live performance in Victoria Secret show singing Diamonds.

Higher, Love On The Brain, Work, Needed Me, Kiss It Better are very good songs specially the first two songs,

I am neither a fan or a hater. It does seem like she is going in the right direction now. I have always liked her look and personality. She was fun to watch on the Voice. She seemed more real than most of the mentors/judges and genuinely warm and endearingly freaky. Not so polished as Bey.

In response to comments about others hating her, there seems to be a real phenomena of people absolutely hating the women who have extreme success in the music businesss, whether it is Madonna, Lady Gaga, Bey, Rihanna, or Taylor. Perhaps it is partially due to wearing people out by being in the limelight so much, but I think it must go deeper than this as this abbreviated list is quit diverse in musical styles, their relations to the media, talent level, etc. People sure like to tear them down.

I never considered myself to be a Rihanna fan but over the last 2 years I have grown to like and respect her. She is down to earth and geniune. I also liked and respected when she admitted to not having any classics and wanting to grow as an artist. She seems real and not about the b.s. which is refreshing. I also was really impressed with the artistic and vocal growth on ANTI. I really enjoyed the album.

Yep, amoung the swivel headed Barbie Dolls that the music industry presents as real talent. The inudstry is shocked just shocked nobodies buying music.

I agree, it wasnt bad even bought a couple tracks. She always have at least 4 good songs on an album. She got some work to do on her live shows though, I tried to watch two of them on Tidal....I just couldnt sit through more than 30 minutes of it. Like she not trying hard enough. She is no Beyonce of course.

I got tired of resisting her since she kept getting a bunch of great industry hits.

I enjoy her voice now. The org archives will show that was not always the case.

IMO, Rihanna has grown as a performer. If you watch her earlier performances there is an obvious difference from then compared to now. I am not calling her great or stellar but just saying She came a long way. She is not a choreography base performer. There seems to be a misconception that in order to entertain you need to "dance" on stage.
