People continue to forget about cultural impact.
Rihanna doesn't have much cultural impact, and Katy has none at all. They're comparable to Paula Abdul, Tiffany, and Debbie Gibson.
That's what separates them from Gaga, Beyoncé, and Britney.

I HATE THAT. It absolutely discredits everything she's worked for. Katy and Ke$ha are still newbies, they have yet to prove themselves. It'd make more sense to say Gaga and Rihanna are in the same league. At least that comparison is fair. |
Ikr?

No Doubt disagrees. "Hey Baby" and "Underneath It All" were both huge Dancehall hits.

To answer the OP's question, I'd be like the Britney stans, stuck in the past.
Rihanna would probably still make good music tho.

Yes, because we all know an artist income comes mostly from singles... right.

Cultural impact doesn't guarantee future success any more than #1 hits and current success do.

That wasn't directed at you. I was ranting about the people that add Rih in the "lessor" trinity with Katy & Ke$ha.

Just the other day, if Mtv were speaking on her cultural impact, Rih, that is.

What has Rihanna impacted? Being an asshole on Twitter?

There were TONS of Dancehall artists when Rihanna debuted. Nina Sky, Sean Paul, Bennie Man. It's out right lie to say Dancehall was not in at the time.

Eh, cultural impact doesn't matter that much. Britney had TONS and look how she's struggling now.
