Bang and Shy Boy.
I HATE Orange Caramel, the whole concept is too much for me.
Kahi solo was just okay.

Thank god I'm not the only one that prefers Bey's solo music over Destiny's Child. 
Don't get me wrong, DC had some amazing singles, but Bey's solo stuff is so much better.

He tried too hard to seem demented & non-commercial on MBDTF. The only cuts I truly love are Power, Hell of a Life & Lost In the World (which gives me 808 teas). And Monster but I only use Nicki's verse anymore.
808s has not a single filler. The album is extremely well though-out, cohesive, personal & presents an insight into the West people rarely see. Heartless & Love Lockdown are the two best songs he's ever done, with Say You Will close behind.

Rockstar 101 and Wait Your Turn are my favorite Rihanna videos, of all time.
Disturbia is 3rd, of course.

The Orange Caramel concept was so hilarious. It was pathetic 
Kahi's solo music was okay, but her performances SLAYED! What do you think of To Anyone?

Also I'm gonna need for Kanye to be on the majority of his next album. The instrumental breaks and all-star guest features are nice, but when you're only on 1/4 of your own album, something is wrong.

Sis, you have given nothing but truth. MBDTF is incredible, but I've only played it once.

Lies! 
808s >>>>>
Say You Will, Heartless & Love Lockdown 
His next album should be an 808s/Graduation mash-up.

I LOVE Heat Rush! I have Heat, too, but Heat Rush smells even better. Oh, and I've been to each of her tours, as well as the Monster Ball and Beyonce's I Am... Tour. They were all great in different ways. I haven't decided, yet, if I'm going to the Loud Tour or to see Bruno Mars and Janelle Monae live instead.

Heat Rush is soooo sweet! Heat is good too, but idk. Rebl Fleur is soooooo strong. Someone said it could go as a cologne too! I love it. But its soooo strong. lol I dont wait for the albums either. I stopped doing that after GGGB!
I wanna go to a gaga and bey tour! Im REALLY trying to go to LOUD tour and Britneys tour this summer !OMG I'd die! I'd die for a Bey tour!

Exactly. Those songs you named, as well as "Dark Fantasy" are great, but I think he overthought MBDTF. He's like a musical genius that overthinks everything. 808s is amazing from start to finish, is extremely cohesive, and you really understand him after the album. It's just so beautiful, and vulnerable, and he really allowed himself to emote. It's also not overthought; it just flowed from him. I think he tried way too hard on MBDTF. He wanted to create a masterpiece, and that's the problem. Masterpieces happen. You don't make them happen.

Did it make you feel better darling, by trying to convince yourself that I'm wrong because "risk" is subjective?
Newsflash - it isn't. Risk has a DEFINITION. It is something that presents a danger, whether you agree or not - that is a fact, and to say that anything on IASF presented a danger to Beyoncé's career is to delude oneself.
Now, instead of retyping yet another useless response, how about you just copy and paste this one, because you're running around in a gigantic circle. Save yourself some time.

I have neither said nor implied that any discussion of risks is off-limits to this discussion, but that you aren't correct in saying she took no risks on IASF.
Ew do not call me darling. I'm 'bout to hurl.
You been #WRONGO since post1 on this matter and all I'm doing is letting you know it.  But you seem to having trouble grasping that just you do with the concept what is risky, which is still subjective, whether you like it or not. I see that you're upset that this fact puts a giant hole in your already flimsy point, but the definition of the word still does not restrict the application or interpretation of the concept. #RemainMad

I love how versatile Rihanna is. She's a chameleon, and that's a great thing to be in the music industry. I want her next album to be like GGGB, but more mature. Not even necessarily sound-wise, but just image-wise. I love happy and colorful Rihanna, but I want her to do another dark look. Not a dark sound, though.

Yes! I think Rated R is and always will be (well, unless she tops it which she probably will eventually) my favorite Rihanna era is because I can relate to the darkness of it. I'm a dark person, and Rated R was a blend of all of my favorite genres, styles, etc. I think that's why I went from being a fan/borderline stan to a really huge stan with Rated R.
Don't get me wrong though, I do like Loud. It's my 3rd most played album. I play the **** out of it, and some of the songs on it I would consider my all-time favorite Rihanna songs. It's just, looking back at what Rated R era was versus what Loud era is now, I'll always prefer Rated R over it. 
And you described all of the eras/albums perfectly.
