Anti being semi-panned... Ugh, Beyonce her evil conspiracies. She just can't live with the fact that Rih got a record deal by ****ing her hubby and that deal made her bigger, more global and influental. Well, I'd be mad too.

ANTI is revolutionary; not only does it integrate futuristic, adventurous and bold songs such as "Consideration" and "Kiss it Better", Rihanna also demonstrates her outstandingly unrivalled vocals in "Higher" and "Love On the Brain". This time, Rihanna has managed to create a timeless, transcendent piece of music.
'The ultimate impression the album leaves isn't just that of an artist who failed to follow through on her vision, but who never bothered to conceive one in the first place.'

Beyoncé is a glorified local artist (ST literally sold 900k outside the US+UK (2 biggest anglophone markets). Rihanna has been outselling her and has been bigger than her for years and that's why ur all so heated. Records sold: rihanna > Beyoncé
lol already thot u were lame but this proves it
idk about bangerz or artshit but Unapologetic WAS the album of the millenium (since it won a grammy and BEYST didnt hihi)
Who is "Nobody", exactly? The bottoms on ATRL? The people you follow on twitter who can't stand Rihanna to begin with ? Because most of her fans enjoy the album. People who have never checked for Rih like the album. God forbid she steps out of that raunchy pop tart box and tries to give y'all something a little bit more real without y'all calling it garbage. This album will be appreciated in hindsight, just like Rated R was. **** what a critic has to say.
And as SOON as she gives y'all LOUD 2.0, y'all will rush to call that trash too. Bottomline is she still winning at the end.
I'm talking about the public in general. Rihanna is seen as a fun, mindless popstar. That's it. People use her for her lil club bops. She is not a Lana Del Rey she is not an Adele. She isn't someone that people are looking toward for meaningful artsy stuff. Period. Which is why when she tries to go that route it normally doesn't fare very well. Her "fans" are obviously going to enjoy anything she releases, because they are her stans. Her fans enjoyed Rated R too but the public said NO and wtf???. Because I repeat, NOBODY wants that type of stuff from Rihanna.
I'm just...
