OG has one of the best beats of any pop song I've ever heard. It's hypnotic (the verses) & turns into a banger (chorus). The bridge puts the song into that final overdrive.
That Guetta/Hudson collabo sounds just like it. The chorus of OG inspired several tracks I've heard. The chorus of a song called Young Forever by the Ready Kid too & Wet by Nicole Scherzinger.

I haven't heard "Wet" yet, but for now I will take your word for it.
So this means that now Nicole Scherzinger has 2 songs that are Rihanna inspired! "Right There" and "Wet". I actually don't mind though, it just reinforces Rihanna's name as an icon and inspiration.
If she is going to attend VMA then I need a performance of Cheers! I don't care about any Britney tribute lol
23. Cheers (Drink to That)
just passed:
24. The Edge of Glory
25. Best Thing I Never Had
it is not far from the 22 spot.
Cheers is doing amazingly well. In Australia it just passed 'Party Rock Anthem' and is now #12. I can't believe how well this is turning out for Rihanna, and Cheers has put LOUD on the right track again, before the re-release/EP.
I think I just had a relevation. I just saw LFN on a NOW commercial and I threw something at the T.V. . I hate Katy Perry! I really tried not to because her and Ri are publicity public friends, but I just can't like her fabricated ass.

I am increasingly getting annoyed with her image, but you have to admit that her songs are hella catchy. Teenage Dream is just an album with a collection of cacthy songs you can't get out of your head, and that is the reason I have TD in my iTunes wishlist.
I really hate how people put Katy on Rihanna's level, though. I mean, Rihanna can sell albums, has twice the amount of #1's (the thing which makes Katy a "powerhouse") and Rihanna (now) slays her performances. I don't mind that they are friends, though.
They are NOT on the same level and people act like they respect Katy more because she writes her own songs that consists of feeling like walmart bags and ****. I'm not here for it. Ri has the better discography, performances, voice, image, and overall career... period. I noticed the TD thread only had like what 13,000 posts and has been out since this time last year. Le ****?
Her songs are catchy though, but they're generic as **** hence her having most of the success she's having now. That and the fact that she caters to prepubescent teens.

For the amount of Katy stans on ATRL, I was really surprised that the TD thread rarely gets used, too.
Katy sends me mixed messages. Her twitter personality has this whole "Oh yeah, I'm awesome because I get nominated for everything" vibe. But her interviews has this whole "I am actually a 12 year old in a 27 year old body". Its obvious that her televised interviews are fake as, but Katy seems like someone who 'off camera' would be really fun to hang out with. She seems like she has a similar personality to Rihanna, and we all know that Rihanna would be awesome to hang with.

But that's one reason I don't like her. I don't know who she's trying to be image wise. Ironically, she has a song about being yourself. Is she the conservative, christian chick or the wild carefree chick? She's very hypocritical and that's one of my pet peeves. That's why I do appreciate Rihanna so much... she's real.

Sis let's be real tho Rihanna doesn't seem so smart in interviews although she's very natural and spontaneous with her answers.

Katy is basic. People use her music but not her. Her songs don't have any depth whatsoever. They're shallow.

Her vocabs are soo limited. Have you ever noticed how she always uses the same words over and over to describe certain things? She is like my own reflection!

Omg. Even though I knew Katy showed different personalities, you have just made me realised she has the song 'Firework'. How could I never realise this? You have made an excellent point.

Rihanna might not be the smartest, but she is no where near 'dumb' and as both of you had said, she is spontaneous and therefore real.
I have just figured out my favourite Rihanna song.
And the beautiful song is... TE AMO. And there are various reasons why;
1. I love the Latin/Spanish theme. To me it also has a few island influences. Its just an awesome beat and one of my instant favourites apon hearing Rated R.
2. The title can have a double meaning. Te Amo is similar to the Spanish word 'Temo' which also means 'fear'. Rihanna convincing herself that she's not afraid of this new relationship, but is adamant in making sure it doesn't happen... it just makes sense to me.
3. It has the best single cover of all the Rated R singles.
4. (IN MY OPINION) It is Rihanna's 2nd best video, after Russian Roulette.
5. The Te Amo performances at the Last Girl on Earth Tour were one of the highlights of the whole concert.
Europe/America:
Australia:
The European performance was a lot more theatrical. But the Australian performance was hella more sexy.
Her vocabs are soo limited. Have you ever noticed how she always uses the same words over and over to describe certain things? She is like my own reflection!
Her "vocabs" ?
Rihanna is articulate . Just because she has an accent doesnt mean ****. She has a wider vocabulary than the average American.

Te Amo
i completely agree, te amo is one of the best songs on rated r!
russian roulette > te amo > rude boy (it was overplayed)
and don't even START on LGOE australia.... my life was slayed not just with the te amo performance... the whole damn show!!!
hard was the highlight for me TBH, because she performed it so well and she winked at me and smiled right in the middle of the song!!!!! i was so SO HAPPY then i'm having such a stan moment right now
this doesn't need to be said but i love rihanna so much!!!!!
How could I never realise this? You have made an excellent point.
