Um, because it was dance-pop and it was mostly white people stanning for the song. Rih's only hit on Urban recently was Birthday Cake, while even the non-single tracks from 4 are doing well on Urban.
We Found Love was #1 on billboard R&B/Hip Hop Song and Rhythmic Radio Aiplay..
You sure black people weren't here for it
Beyonce's biography would literally start with Destiny's Child. Rihanna's would talk about her actual personal life so people can get a grasp of who the real Rihanna is.
newsflash
There is a Destiny Childs special where Beyonce talked about her life before DC
And the thing is...DC started when she was very young so that's not really comparable
Rihanna talked about her father being on drugs and how that affected her upbringing. You would never hear about Beyonce talking about how her parents' divorce affected her, how her father cheating on her mother affected her, and she doesn't even acknowledge her little brother (who's innocent in the situation).

Let me repeat myself:
What does this have to do with being respected by the black community?

Just because Rihanna wants to spill all her parents tea that doesn't mean we all do. And what effect would a divorce or baby with another woman have on Beyoncé who is 31 years old?

Seeing how Beyonce was 8 when Girl's Tyme (the original name of Destiny's Child) started, obviously most of her early life would be about DC
Let's just end this thread with the fact that Beyonce has had dinner with the Obamas. While Rihanna stays on twitter and showcase her real personality.
I wonder how many people who've commented are actually black...
I'm wondering.
I can't comment on this because I don't know. More importantly, I don't care. But I do know that Rihanna is not really respected by any community, so why would the black community respect her? ....
