MY REVIEW OF LOUD
S&M - this sexy number brings out the gayness in me with every listen. At first I wasnt feeling it a lot because it was giving me Disturbia teas and I love hearing new innovative concepts but eventually I grew to love it. Its definitely one of the strongest on the album.
4/5
What's My Name? - This smooth r&b tune with dancehall synths is definitely an ear orgasm. Drake's verse is wonderfully executed and very clever. This song is a smash. The lyrics and Rihanna's vocals on the bridge is a winner. Definitely a banger and in the top 3 of my favorite tracks.
5/5
Cheers - This song was not one of my faves at first, definitely a grower. The chorus is definitely an Anthem but I guess im not the rock and roll kinda guy. Its definitely a feel good song I just wish it would have taken me to that place where I wanted it to take me. The production is a winner and the lyrics are definitely great. It has to the potential to become a classic.
4/5
Fading - Ok so can i say this. ****ING EPIC SMASH. I could live without 2:40 tho
someone needs to fix that for me but this ballad takes me places. Again, it gives me Take A Bow teas but TAB is one of my all time faves so i love it.
4.5/5
Only Girl (In the World) - This song is one of the best vocal performances from rihanna on the album. The chorus is definitely the most anthemic and I see why this was chosen as the first single. This is a feel great track and the production speaks for itself. definitely a standout in my opinion.
5/5
California King Bed - ****ING STANDING OVATION. Best vocal performance. best delivery of emotion. The song is a masterpiece and the production is flawless. definitely the epitome of LOUD.
5/5
Man Down - The jamaican reggae cut is a good one. Its the ugly duckling on Loud. But dont let that title fool you because this song is a Swan. The chorus is distinct and reminds me of rated r in a bit. The emotion is very aggressive and not dark. The lyrics are so cleverly written that it almost feels like whistling poetry.
4/5
Raining Men - this track is the woman empowerment song of Loud. I love the urban vibe and the killer Nicki verse. This is a fun uptempo that i can see being a summertime hit in the club and anywtime when youre out and just having a good time. Its sexy flirty and definitely fun. I enjoy it.
3.5/5
Complicated - Ok the euro beat and synths are really captivating but the song did not give me that oomph. Its definitely a good song as the lyrics are so meaningful and well crafted. Its a good listen but not the best and not single worthy. This possibly may be the worst on the album but it does put you in a good mood and is somewhat a good addition to Loud.
3/5
Skin - Ok so this sexy number leaves me to wonder what matt Kemp and Rihanna be doing in the bed. this song goes so hard and makes me want to get down and dirty and give it to my lover like no other can. the vibe of the song is strong that it makes me want to get naked. definitely gonna be put on my Sex playlist.
4/5
love The Way you Lie Part II - Again, Rihanna's vocals are highlighted in a strong way on this track. Its even better than the first. The verses are so emotional that it thrills me. This is a beautiful end to a beautiful album and it really ties together Rihanna's past tribulations to where she is now. it answers all the unanswered questions and gives us we everything could want and more. Eminem lays down a killer verse on this track as well and he lays the best rap verse out of all three guest rappers. Great song.
4.5/5
I prefer it over S&M, but since it's confirmed third I can't do anything but let Def Jam do their thing. Lord knows they made some wrong single decisions last era... 
I want a ghetto ass review please. Give it to me.
