Lol, so blunt. I couldn't care less about Whitney Houston, no one's talking about her. I'm not saying she's a bad songwriter. Fire Bomb is my favourite Rihanna track, and didn't she write that? I personally think she comes off sloppy as of late. I feel she's releasing albums under her labels circumstances, not her own. Talk That Talk for me was her worst album. IMO, it was made to get money because her name was still so big from Loud. That's the point I'm making

There are more aspects to it than "she doesn't write her own music, so that makes her untalented."

I never said she was untalented, I think as of late, her albums are being made in favour of Jay-Z's wallet as I said above, and I know she doesn't need to be that type of artist. I just think she could put more time into her albums.
Anyway, I don't see the point in carrying this on, it's a difference of opinion, and I wouldn't like to argue over something so silly with someone I like.
