The ballads in TTT deserve to be dragged, but all of the other songs should be given their due praise
Expect the trash that is Roc Me Out to be eliminated early though
But let's get into it? The very last place is in fact my only 0 in the entire rate and for good reason. Talking about Talk That Talk, some consider it an unnecessary continuation of Loud, while others (me) liken it to her best album. In fact, its surprisingly ambitious. I mean its bold, its sexual, its wild but vulnerable, a bit of a tragedy that this pseudo-mixtape is her best album but whatever.
So why the hate for the album closer? Well, I mean, Rihanna finishes the wild and eventful Talk That Talk with arguably the most meaningless song in her entire discography. Like, anyone could sing this and it would still mean nothing to me. Seriously a Karaoke/Reality show tea.
But maybe that's just me... or apparently not! Here's what you had to say:
Eeveelution: Why are Rih, her non xx sampling ballads so ****?
I'll forgive the WAWL shade and agree that the other ballads from this album were the definition of unremarkable.
Bloomers: Rih's closers are always so tossed off sounding. Farewell is one of the better ones. A little generic but good enough.
At this truth. While I disagree with Farewell being one of the better ones, when you look at what its up against in terms of Rih her closers...
