Well, Rihanna never really presented herself as a strong, independent woman—in fact,
her biggest hit is about being sent on a downward spiral by an unhealthy relationship. So take that for what it's worth; I'm not sure we could have expected much better from her.
But it is weird to hear that kind of pandering in a Destiny's Child song. I remember that "Cater 2 U" was my favorite track on
Destiny Fulfilled when it first came out, and then my (female) friend pointed out to me what a terrible message it has. It's too bad that the vocals and the instrumental are seductively sexy, because it make the song kind of hard to hate.
Cater 2 U >>>>>> selfish people. Michelle's verse is my favorite, her lyrics make the song complete!! Bey murders those adlibs & the arrangement is ACE and Kelly just sounds at home against that beat. Kelly needs to make songs like this in her own solo career.
It's getting to the point where I should know every song
