I think some university (for the Hive, they are places where you go after highschool - if you haven't dropped out - for career studies) should do an investigation on why do people get exponentially more pressed with every iconic lead single from Rihanna.

This song is pretty awful.

You have Pixie Lott in your signature so I don't expect you'd know any music from before 1995 or outside of pop (or what you'd like to consider 'urban' or 'hip hop' but in reality is nothing of the sort).

So yeah, stop.



I usually wouldn't stick up for any artists not in the top two tiers of my signature but with an artist like Rih who is so talented and a great businesswoman, seeing 14 year old white twinks posting from the iPhones their parents paid for coming for a song like this because it won't hit number 1 is really quite frustrating.

Clock it



Drag it



Scalp it



Bury ha remains!

**** off

I love the song. I actually find Rihanna's vocals to be the best she delivered in years.

Not sure about it being the lead single.... I need something a little more eventful, if you know what I mean. Not necessarily urban or dance, just more anthemin/iconic.

Well you all praise trash songs like The Night Is Still Young and Shake It Off but when you get a left field song like this that is actually creative you all complain.
Just a complete mess, I can see people singing this at home, in pubs, everywhere! The chorus has that classic, get -together, feel good atmosphere to it.

Strumming a guitar is creative? K.

Never heard of it. This is being treated like the first single. Didn't they do a video for it?

It was Nicki's buzz single.
And it received radio play and it had a video.

Obviously this isn't the only thing you don't buy considering Lotus and Bionic's sales.

Are we really going there, i mean ...

Wow, definitely not listening to that ever again! Literally so glad my fave doesn't just throw out any old thing.

This is what I'm saying.

Yes, it's something new for Rihanna - that's a great thing. But let's not act like a laid back acoustic track is some sort of groundbreaking and never seen before musical decision....

[HotHeaven]

what is this country taylor swift mess

LIKE GOODBYE RIH IVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU SINCE UNAPOLOGETIC AND THIS IS WHAT YOU DELIVER TO QUENCH MY THIRST? BYE

you better DELIVER in the new album

[Mariano]

It's not a buzz single, but it's not a lead single either. This is supposed to be a great song played on radio (cuz it deserves to be heard) and I'd be very happy if they promote it and release a video.

Considering this is not a Rihanna song, but Kanye/Rihanna/Paul duet, it's hardly Rihanna's own lead single. The same way u can say it's Kanye's lead single and drag him, instead of Rih

It's supposed to be the first glimps of Rihanna's/Kanye's new music. Take that as you wish. Every single before an album is released is "LEAD" because it's leading to the album.. Promo singles are also leads

[Terylee]

It's not my cup of tea. But I'm very excited what Rihanna has in store for us on her new album.

[CristianGsix]

Is this the lead?

My timeline last night and the 500 members viewing the thread yesterday tell me Bey and Rih BOTH did. Obviously Bey did in a bigger way because that was an album. This is a buzz single.

Yeah... There are whole classes based around Beyoncé's discography and the presence of feminism and equality of gender and race in her music. So how about we not bring Hive vs Navy fights in here and leave them in SYG. This is a place for opinions on the song.

Anything Rih does is not creative to y'all.
Because if she was singing in autotune over a bubble gum pop instrumental.
Y'all would've said the same exact thing.

Now she tries something different from the other pop girls, and it's still not out of the box for y'all.

Pills wasn't a buzz single
