Rihanna, JT, Madonna and Britney made electronic dance music popular. Popular.

Rihanna released a country song as a lead single in 2015. There isn't really much to add to this debate.

Both Disturbia and Don't Stop The Music hit #1 before any Gaga song. Don't believe her stan writers who tried to rewrite history

Or maybe Gaga just came in at the right time and kicked off a trend that was already becoming popular?

And nothing Rihanna did was "hip-hop" until Rated R anyway.

Rifund really had a showing of her album art for a album that aint done. I just

Luckly Arianna comes back next week to even more take Rifund her place on pop.

Rihanna only had one experimental moment, and that was with Rated R. She almost had a chance to reinvent herself with FourFiveSeconds (Until I Kill Myself) but I guess collaborating with a wrinkled, tired white man doesn't work for everybody. Then she did what she does best by running back to hip hop in fear of alienating her core fan base, and even THAT was a failure.

Britney should have released and replaced the following:
Baby one more time - born to make u happy ww and not from the bottom
Oidia - one kiss from you instead of don't let me then add what u see is what u get.
Britney - boys original instead of boys remix
In the zone - breathe on me instead of outrageous
Greatest hits I just begun having my fun instead of do something
Circus unusual you instead of radar
Femme fatale up n down instead of.i wanna go and how I roll instead of criminal

Up N Down would not have been a hit.
How I Roll or Inside Out instead of Criminal is something I can get behind.
I'm fairly certain that the Criminal radio edit is what made it flop.

Yeah, artists like Basshunter were smashing here in 2008 before Gaga came onto the scene, she didn't start the dance trend. Some of yall are so delusional

Can't even defend this tbh.

Rihanna was conceptualizing Rated R as early as November 2008.

I think ANTi will be ha most mature album.

Rihanna actually scrapped R4. She said in late 2008 that her next album would be more pop like Breakin Dishes and Shut Up and Drive.

That didn't happen.

Sir, fight me. And beat me, so I can sue you and get some of that money you have.

If you're going to replace the song that Britney always performs, then at least replace it with Anticipating. Also, Criminal was a perfect single choice. I don't care that it flopped. It was the one thing about the FF era that Britney seemed excited about. I do agree that Up N Down should have been released instead of I Wanna Go. Nevermind what the Kesha stan said.

You are only allowed to criticize Rated R if your fave's ever done anything a tenth as good as Cold Case Love, which I highly doubt.

Sorry but Godney and Madead have done dance pop and electro pop before and after Gaga

WTF. Don't be mean to me.
