This is not news, people always hate on the snippets that's why I didn't want anything to leak. It has nothing to do with who's on the song.
People seem to forget that the snippet we got is actually LQ and it's just a demo.

CRTFY has a rocksteady instrumental, Jamaican island rock similar to No Doubt's past work as an example. What else has that vibe right now? Thats why theres people in here saying they don't like it. Its unfamiliar and unexpected. Its not some cliche dance song that they can hate on for being too typical or like because it is typical and its not some minimal electro song with a white-friendly urban twist that they can fit into the whole minimal pop wave of Lorde/A$AP/Lana/Beyonce/etc.
Of course this is just me judging by these little tiny snippets. Snippets or demos are never ever ever that far from the finished product so im sure it will sound like this. But snippets are always taken out of context. You never know what the rest of the song will sound like until you hear it.

Exactly. Shakira songs also have various mixes, so maybe this isn't the original one? Rihanna wouldn't release with something that she doesn't like, and Shakira wouldn't have a bad comeback track. Just wait for the HQ version to come out
hopefully tomorrow. (hopefully we get more than Radio quality)
