I mean for me personally, im connected to albums which I feel the artist is expressing themselves more and has more involvement so maybe its natural that I picked Talk That Talk. Not trying to shade Rihanna's credibility obviously

but it still annoys me that she didn't write a damn thing on Loud, she even wrote more A Girl Like Me

. Loud was obviously just a commercial comeback to the underperformance of RR and we all know it, I doubt she even liked the Loud era that much besides the hair.

I was only semi-shading her with that bolded part. But putting the music aside, Rihanna was in hospital and on the verge of a breakdown in the weeks leading up to the album release. She said it herself in 'the road to Talk That Talk'. She had to tour, and every spare moment was either recording the album, doing photo shoots, or finalizing details. She did actually bite off more than she could chew.

True

It still annoys me that she put herself in danger like that.
