I am actually very concerned about American Oxygen as a title and lyrics.
Y'all who are not from EU probably don't understand but Europe doesn't use America. For example, when Rih performed in my city few years ago she had to pass by completely destroyed and demolished buildings that were bombed by NATO a decade ago causing many deaths, injury and radiation. You really think singing 'Breathe in American Oxygen, this is a new America' in the same city would ever be good?
And I don't want to ****ing breathe American Oxygen nor I want to associate myself with such in-your-face American propaganda and I'm a stan, so imagine how easy it could be for the GP to completely pay it dust.
She already has Europe in the bag
Americans are fickle with her unlike Bee/Perry/Swift because she's always considered a foreigner by middle america, she needs to win them over for good this time
That's why she's bringin the big guns
What's a single in her discography ?
There's always the 3rd or 4th single in sight to please everyone
When some of her other songs came out people called them trash only to like it the following era, or when the song began to slay on the charts. It's not like it's you particularly I'm directing what I'm saying to you but in general. I don't like some of her songs but I rarely talk about the songs of hers I don't like because what's the point. I mean if we are discussing quality in general then yes calling the song trash is warranted but it seems that there is a bandwagon for not liking FFS going on and I've seen this with Rihanna stans before where if the song didn't smash the navy didn't really use.
i would never bandawagon just because FFS underperformed.i just stopped posting in here because everyone praised it and didnt stop saying stuff like this (not saying its bad)

Yeah, that's true and I have no problem with it. It's just a shame because AO2 sounds absolutely incredible in that snippet.
sistrens, are American Woman/Party in the USA propaganda to you? it's just an easy metaphor to make. i would be 100% with you if the complaints about patriotism are valid, but as of now they aren't for all we know she's singing about a better version of America that she dreams of. like let's wait before be get upset
Madonna's American Pie cover was a hit in the Europe. Rih's gonna be fine if the song is good.
omg thank you
i totally forgot about this song
mad's was huge hit for her in eu back in 2000
so no matter what the title is if the song good then where is the problem ?
