So no, Rihanna isn't building any foundation and her music has no impact outside of entertaining people for a solid month, possibly two. At the end of the day, it's the impact that counts because nobody in the world except for ATRL cares for album sales nor single sales.

Beyonce's been relevant for 2 decades but her moment in the sun came when she gave birth to Blue Ivy.
She was always overshadowed by Britney/Gaga/Rihanna etc before that.
Don't let Beyonce being a meme get to your head. Nothing Beyonce has done musically after 2008 will be remembered.
I woke up like dis, Drunk In Love will all be in Buzzfeed's top 10 cringe pop culture things from the past 5 years soon enough.
