As time passes I begin to realize that Rihanna really didn't care for Loud as an era, or that time in her life, and I also feel she doesn't care as much for GGGB now either outside of Umbrella

I agree. It's a shame that those two eras were some of her hugest when I don't think she was very passionate about them.

The irony that those were the least Chris influenced eras
Rihanna has did several hair colors since Loud but she hasn't did red at all, she only sings the songs from the album on your because they were big hits.
I think she was actually against the Loud release, and more in favor of TTT.
Outside of Umbrella GGGB doesn't even seem to be one of her fave albums or even times in her life.
She atleast posts pictures from AGLM, MOTS but she pays Loud, and GGGB dust.
She doesn't mention the songs, the time in her life, or anything about them.
She stated several times she wants to go back to the red and she always liking Redanna (LOUD) pictures, I think the reason why she not doing it is because it represent that era, it defines it, it's something that makes it standout compared to the other records.
GGGB was the first era Rihanna actually had any control in her career.
Remember she was young when GGGB came out, she had a different mentally she probably can't relate much to that album anymore. Just like Miley said she doesn't relate to "Can't Be Tamed" because she was a different person back then.
Obviously she only sings the hits I mean this tour is basically for Unapologetic and TTT, it's obvious those are going to get to shine more and she not going to put the attention on GGGB or LOUD, she can't sing all her songs especially album tracks from past albums she has too many songs+hits to do that, I'm positive there many songs she like that she doesn't sing for those reason, she has like 19274 songs.
Also RR, TTT, Unapologetic are album she can probably relate to more now for obvious reason, in a few years she might not relate to those albums but now she does.

I think you're wrong, Rihanna said prior to Loud that it was her favourite album and that it was her best work to date.
Also GGGB has some of her biggest hits on that album, what makes you think she doesn't care for those era's? I am confused.
I just feel like over the years that Rihanna has grown more into her skin, and really found who she truly is: an edgy, sexy woman (like the one that we see in RR, TTT, and UA eras), and less of the girly flirt that we saw in GGGB and Loud eras. While GGGB and Loud may represent a part of her personality, I feel like the "darker/edgy" eras are more aligned to her true self.

They've been playing it SO MUCH lately! E! betta stan.
That version of complicated is a mess, the production overshadows her voice, and the production makes the song sound more Uptempo which doesn't go with the songs mood, or theme.

I agree that Loud and GGGB represent Rihanna less than her other records. I just wish Rih could see her albums are her best when she's less extreme, and her era's.
Do people think she was more herself during the Loud era or the TTT era? I think the general consensus is that she was herself during Loud and she adapted a thug attitude that wasn't her during the TTT era but I happened to think that the TTT era was when she finally felt comfortable with everything that went on in her life. I think her #BadBitch mentality is just who she is and what she has become based on her life story. That is why I personally love the TTT album.
We're a perfect match to ignite a fire
Candlelight to inferno, and your heart's the lighter
I can you hear you laugh as the flames go higher
Shining bright, it's your turn now, it's your turn to cry now
Rivers of tears couldn't wash it away
I been sittin here too long, I been here for days
Things really haven't changed, you been leaving here unscathed
Now I'm wanting you to fade, like a smoke that turns to haze
You can do what you think I deserve
I been letting it hurt
You're the lighter that burns
But I live & I learn
And I know that for certain
We're a flame left deserted
But you never been hurtin
Never knew what the worst is
Imma let the rain
Turn us to haze
To hell with our days
It can drown em away[x2]
Thought you were a catch, my red hot summer
But it went to inferno, and I thought I loved ya
Now you laugh, now don't ya?'
Thought you wasn't supposed to?
As we fight, all of the ashes start eruptin like thunder
Still, my rivers of tears couldn't wish it away
I been sittin here too long, drowning in all your mistakes
Things really haven't changed, you been leaving here unscathed
Now I'm wanting you to fade, like a smoke that turns to haze
You can do what you think I deserve
I been letting it hurt
You're the lighter that burns
But I live and I learn
And I know that for certain
We're a flame left deserted
But you never been hurtin
Never knew what the worst is
Imma let the rain
Turn us to haze
To hell with our days
It can drown em away[x2]
At least now I'm healing
I am through the concealing
You just got to the dealing
Glad you're finally feeling
Guess the pain got you reeling
Got you feeling all sealed in
Looking up to the ceiling
Cause I know, now I begin
You can do what you think I deserve
I been letting it hurt
You're the lighter that burns
But I live and I learn
And I know that certain
We're a flame left deserted
But you never been hurtin
Never knew what the worst is
You can do what you think I deserve
I been letting it hurt
Now I'm watching you burn
Now the tables have turned
And I know that for certain
You're a flame left deserted
I have pulled the curtain
You're the weaker person
Imma let the rain
Turn us to haze
To hell with our days
It can drown em away[x2]
Imma let the rain
Do what it may
To hell with our days
Like the haze that fades[x2]
I think that Loud and GGGB represent her in their respective times.
GGGB = she became more independent and became a woman
Loud = she felt free and happy after Chris and Rated R
