It's a shame Anti very well could've had a 75-80 if those initial reviews didn't try to dismiss it so soon.
You know what's funny is that ATRL said the same thing, they said it would be the reason why the era would flop.
But now since the era took a turn, they're saying the album is full of radio bait songs and it's no different from her other albums.
anyone who gave ANTi a low score is an idiot lbr
especially after only 1 listen or less
no one should post a review unless theyve listened to an album at least 3x imo
Rihanna’s eighth album could be unsure of itself – but it was a rare instance of a mainstream star daring to experiment, and the results sometimes paid off.
What we said: In a risk-averse world, there’s something brave about Anti, and at its best, its daring pays off: it remains to be seen whether it represents a momentary swerve off-piste or what you might call a complete Ri-Ri-invention.
The end of year acclaim is COMING. Truly Godanna's metamorphosis
