OG was successful without needing a sample.

I'm aware, but I'm not disillusioned. A song's success nor what it does for one's career make it a superior song. Only Girl could've not even touched the Bubbling under charts and I'd still list it as her best uptempo, because it is. DSTM helping to continue the GGGB era does not make it any better than had it stayed an album track.

The quality, the production, the theme, the content, the lyrics, the meaning, the melody, the beat of Only Girl in the World are all superior to DSTM.

I also think DSTM is better than OG quality wise..and for a song which more like treated like a promo single with low budget vid ( a vid made for fan when it was first filmed) to perform massively all over the world must means something. That low budgeted vid was also Riri's first 100M viewed vid. The public have spoken.

OG is veryyyy commercial and received the promo it needed - hence it's spectacular success but it was different with DSTM.

Rihanna's odd booty shorts on the recent cover of Rolling Stone brought up a lot of questions: Were they jeans? Were they chain mail? Was it Photoshop? Well, ponder no more—the mystery behind the shorts has finally been solved.

Fashionista reports: "The magic booty 'shorts' are actually 'metal mesh shorts' according to the credits (Rihanna tweeted that they were 'chain mail'), custom made by Michael Schmidt Studios for the shoot's stylist, B. Akerlund."

B. Akerlund has a celebrity clientele that includes Lady Gaga and Madonna. But what was she thinking for this look? Apparently, the inspiration was "if Rihanna and Kid Rock had a baby."

There you have it. Case closed.

First Single Success =/= 3rd Single success.

Rigalo

I genuinely don't think CKB will be successful.

I actually hope I eat my words.

That's cause DSTM wasn't appealing enough to be the first single. Sorry that Umbrella overshadowed it.

You will.

Too many things to address. DSTM doesn't feature Michael Jackson. Last time I checked it was a woman singing the chants

I love Rockstar 101 & like Cheers & Te Amo but OG is on a whole nother level up compared to those three. They are not superior. Cheers will be a hit but will still remain the weakest song on the Loud.

But Umbrella >> Only Girl so...

Only Girl and Dont Stop The Music are incomparable.

But Only Girl and Dont Stop The Music BOTH **** on Disturbia.

Def Jam didn't get any of the single selections from the standard edition of GGGB right until DSTM. Who would release SUAD after Umbrella? Or release HTILY before PUOM or BD? It's foolishness.

This!! SUAD was her first pop song with a lil rock twist here and there but it shouldn't have be the 2nd single. It failed to carry on the impression left by Umbrella - quite understandable tho since Umbrella's success was outta this world. HTILY was somewhat disappointing. DSTM was the savior of GGGB and the single selection had been great except I think Breakin' Dishes shoulda been released instead of Rehab

I agree that the production of Only Girl is flawless and the song has amazing covers. But sadly some of those covers are better than the original. DSTM is incomparable to the Rihanna version but Only Girl is one of those songs that will forever be a staple in her career thats why I said it will become one of her signature hits. But as an uptempo.. DSTM has much more of an oomph to it be a dancefloor anthem.

DSTM is still Ri's best dance song to date. Undeniable. That song complements every aspects needed by a great pop song except it didn't win a grammy :-/

It was an African singer by the name of Manu Dibango that sued BOTH MJ & Rihanna. MJ never sued Rihanna.

I don't use you either now.

Not MJ and his camp but a random artist claiming MJ and Rihanna sampled his song without permission.

Not having that, either.

Rigalo

Umbrella is her best, hopefully thats something we can all agree on.

MusicTalker

I agree Only Girl is better than Disturbia, but not Don't Stop the Music.
