I mean Rihanna being versatile is great, but it also scores you more hits especially when you're releasing albums solely based off the pinned smashes.

Rihanna was literally never about "that life" if she was she would have started her career with this bad ass image shes acting like. I mean she literally turned into a ghetto princess over night from the Loud to the TTT era and has stuck with it and guess what ... it's whats trendy right now.
#1's are only a little part of what a Legend like MJ has achieved and Rihanna hasn't even achieved half as much as he has done. ****, Beyonce & Britney alone have a bigger legacy than Rihanna without all the #1 hits.

Sis, calm down. They know that she's not on MJ's level, let alone Britney's or Bey's. They're joking, having fun and reveling in their fave's newest achievement. There's no harm in that. Just throw some shade about MJ knowing what a 4x platinum album looks like and leave with your head held high.

Completely true, though Madonna was also pretty infamous for this. I still can't believe Afrojack never sued for royalties on "We Found Love" after "Take Over Control" was a Top 40 hit in the U.S. just months before it came out.

But that's just how Rihanna works. She knows what best for her and she goes with that. Trust me other girls can put out an new album EVERY WEEK and they still wont get 1-3 #1 hit singles out of them. Let's not discredit her because she puts out new music. Everyone in the music would would die to work with Rihanna bc she can give them a hit single. She has the energy and money to put new music out. That's what's going to take her to the top.

Also true. Rihanna has unprecedented radio support and her digital sales almost always follow suit.
