LOL yes. My favorite got a #1 album in the US without any Jay-Z collaborations, any nude pics, insisting on not appearing on MTV, and basically releasing their album legally online for free, AND also making music that isn't commercially viable.
(Damn, I told myself I wouldn't shade Rih since I like her, but NGL, this is getting fun)
Half these threads wouldn't exist if Rihanna got that #1 or if Beyonce flopped with 4. 4's been out for about 5 months with 5 singles and 7 music videos. We'll see where Rihanna stands 5 months later with a massive 3rd single on the way. Where Have You Been will slay all. Case closed.
