Rihanna for sure... and thank god! That talentless b*tch and her tone deaf voice need to go back wherever they came from. "If It's Loving That You Want" is nowhere near a hit, especially when you consider "Pon De Replay" was #2 for several weeks (thank god again she was denied a #1). In any case, she is an egotistical, busted, flash-in-the-pan artist and I could not be happier. She is THE one hit wonder of the year!
I would NOT consider Rihanna a 1-hit wonder
Pon De Replay was huge, and now "If It's Lovin That You Want" is rapidly gaining speed.
On mainstreem charts she is #14 with a bullet of +594!!!
How is this not a hit??
I actually like "If It's Lovin' That You Want" better than "Pon de Replay." I didn't really like her until she released "If It's Lovin' That You Want."
I heard "Pon de Replay" as a preview before it was released. I voted disapproval against it because to me, it sounded generic. I would have never guessed that it would be as huge as it was.
"Pon de Replay" was mostly huge on radio. I think that her next single will have to be a mega hit, if she wants to be remembered. And that goes for any artist.
Rihanna, Nina Sky, and DHT I will probably remember in the future, but as for artists like Kevin Lyttle...I'll probably forget all about them. (maybe if I lived in the UK, his fate would have been different)
Bobby Valentino - Slow Down
Brooke Valentine - Girlfight
Natalie - Goin' Crazy
D.H.T. - Listen To Your Heart
Teairra Mari - Make Her Feel Good (if you consider this a hit)
...several more that aren't coming to mind.
I love how PCD & Rihanna proved everyone wrong. I personally sure that PCD would have another hit but I didn't think they would become such international hitmakers. As for Rihanna, who saw that coming ? Besides, she was stripped of that One Hit Wonder name a couple of days ago ever since IILTYW's bullet rose out of the blue. As for '06, there's a possibility that Cascade won't be another D.H.T. since Cascada has some great club bangers waiting to be released and their next single is might be their cover of, you guessed it, a Roxette song lol. You all might remember it, it was one of the group's last hits in the states.
