Wait..You guys are willing stand firmly in your delusional despite the current tragic state you're in?? Some of you are dragging Bey, but this is a PLACE she'd never be! At 27 years old Beyonce was in her Sasha Fierce Era recieving massive success, while Rihanna is struggling the climb out of the gallows.
The moment this was announced
..I bet most of you knew then that it was the beginning of the end!!
And you were right..
I like Rihanna, but Anti could have been a LOT better if she just focused harder! I liked the direction she's going in, and it's a solid effort (improved vocals, versatility, depth/maturity), but the execution is was off! This is her undoing.
Ya'll can miss me with the nonsense concerning Beyonce. Her singles may not sale exactly as well (due to Rihanna's music generally being more mainstream), but who cares when the lasting impact and influence outlasts the hits that are typically forgotten in comparison
Example: Diamonds and Stay may have hit number one, but Ghost, an album track interlude is the muse for a foreign skyscraper in one of the most popular cities in Australia.
This is lasting impact..
Rihanna attempted that with this
Trying to replicate imprint Beyonce made in pop culture when she released this
with her politically charged statement concerning Feminism!
Now ask anyone do they even remember American Oxygen!
