Poor other mods. They go through all those reports every day, Lipton shows up for 2 minutes, drags Nicole for filth, logs out and already has more classics to her name than most of our faves. Icon
Stargate: [Laughs] There's never any drama with her. She's very honest and there's no games. But the important thing about Rihanna is that she is secure and confident about her own taste in music. She is very easy to work with but hard to please. She knows what she likes and what she doesn't like, and if she doesn't like the material then there's no convincing her.
VIBE: So she's no mere pop puppet, huh?
Stargate: But I like that. She doesn't want us to pander to her. She just wants us to play her some hot records and if she likes it she doesn't want us to change anything. If she doesn't like it we just have to move on to the next one. It's very easy with Rihanna.
What has been the biggest improvement you have seen in Rihanna's development as an artist?
She has grown as a vocalist. So now when she sings a song she enhances it immensely. I think we are digging even deeper when it comes to songwriting. We are still keeping it fresh and sexy because that's who she is. That's Rihanna's personality. But as a vocalist she can handle more things.

And this kids, is what true artistry is.
Picking songs like candy in a candy store is artistry? Anyone can do that.
