But didn't Rihanna "regress" with LOUD too? That's the point, she wrote songs (afaik) and was actually significantly involved with her album.
I'll say it again, that's subjective but yes, some OOTB songs are from her 2 previous (failed) albums .
Both got 2 #1's based on those cheap tactics. I wouldn't say that E.T was cheap tho, she totally deserved that #1 (the others 3 just had bad timing, by promoting properly they could have been #1)..
Katy Perry did have more involvement in Teenage Dream than Rihanna did with Loud. But that again raises the question, why would Katy want to make an album that focuses on a part of life 10 years behind her? I just don't understand...
Why did Katy deserve E.T #1? I don't think that any song with a remix deserves #1.

No matter how you put it Rihanna is not the singles queen anymore
California Gurls, TD, and Firework all reached 4x,5x platinum without any kind of tactics while Rihanna struggles to reach the 3x platinum mark with her singles...
You're right, Rihanna moved onto albums now.
You would think with all those single certifications that Teenage Dream would have sold more than 4 million.
Because people are afraid that she might beat MJ's record!! And people want to keep MJ legacy or whatever!
Last year everyone liked her cuz no one thought that she would be a threat etc. but now that she is....u get wat i mean!
And I'm still trying to find out why does someone who works for LGBT rights, does real music and has voice and instrument skills, and knows how to make albums by herself and sell them worldwide have stans
Her fail stans around here, her ****ing hypocrite actions, her lame ass tactics to make songs go #1, her boobs, her fake persona, her desperate tries at seeking attention that keep failling. The whole package, actually.

Rihanna is now average at selling albums and selling singles.
It's better to excell at one thing than being average at both. Next era Katy will sell more albums than this time around so i'm unfazed.

She's like a girl who wants to be everybody's friend, but will stab in the back in a second to gain popularity.
She has a poor work ethic.
She does cheaper, trashier versions of what better artists do.
I think I've covered it all
How can you say she has no work ethic when she spent all 2010 promoting her ass of everywhere her music, perfume etc?
The rest are your opinions Do you know her personally? No right? Okay.

no one uses the monsters, with the exception of 5-7 members; you're just one of the bunch no one cares about so don't act like you're the greatest homie
And at the rest, I'm not going to repeat myself every ****ing single time.
She is not a good performer.
She doesn't tribute anything to her music (writing 3 words on a song with 5 co-writers doesn't count).
She seems like a hypocrite.
She acts like 12 while she's almost 30.
Her music is not THAT good ( I only like 3 songs of her).
She doesn't give a **** about her fans.
And she doesn't make me feel insecure about my fave AT ALL. I won't list the reasons here, but definitely her success is not the reason why I dislike her
Ironic.
