I love the ending of Close To You

!

It kinda reminds me of a Disney movie

I can't believe that I'm saying this but for me Love On the Brain is one of the weakest tracks of the album.

Hi navy!

Just want to say that I really enjoy this Anti experience that started with the release of Work. I could care less about chart positions. I don't care how messy this era has been. It seems that Rihanna only cares about the music and I have the same attitude. I am preparing to buy the album as soon as it hits the store. I want a physical copy. It's the only way that I can express my gratitude for this masterpiece of an album.

I look in the album in 2 ways, subjectively, I think this is by far Rihanna's best album. I don't really think that it is miles ahead of Unapologetic (minus Right Now) and Rated R. Artistically, this is her most cohesive album. I feel like there's a story that is being told from tracks 1-13, making me engaged the whole time through. Objectively, there's a lot of songs that could be better. I'm not saying that they are worst but there's something in them that makes me yearning for more (which is a rather good thing to feel but left you feel insatiable). For instance, I would love to have Higher longer while I would have loved to have Same Ol Mistakes a little bit shorter. Bottom line, I wanted more. Rated R was over 51 minutes and Anti is very similar to how short Loud is despite having more tracks.

All in all, it's an A for me, could have been A+.

My top favorites are Consideration, Kiss it Better, Needed Me, Love on the Brain, Higher and Close to You and

POSE.

Thanks for reading.

Guys, what's your trinity off ANTI during a rainy day?

- Never Ending
- Kiss It Better
- Same Ol’ Mistakes

Kiss It Better
Yeah I Said It
Never Ending

[RihRihGirrrl]

I wonder why HDD and Billboard aren't doing any sells update for the album...maybe they're having a hard time tracking the Tidal sells?

[DILF $]

Pose is my new workout jam. Ugh, how great is being able to express your kween side while being healthy.

[Owlie]

hey guys, what do y'all think she means with "send for me" part in Woo? She says he needs to call and she'll come to him to **** him?? That's literally the only lyric on the album which meaning I don't understand

[DILF $]

She wants him raw

I love the sense of urgency as it gets closer to the end

[seismicity]

It's nice to see some people coming around to KIB when they were initially rejoicing that it had gotten 'scrapped' and were glad that Rihanna never kept that 'trash'.

Anyway, ANTi is great.
10/10: KIB, Consideration, Work, Needed Me, Same Old Mistakes
9/10: Desperado, Close To You (Should be longer?), Yeah, I Said It, Sex With Me
8/10: Love on the Brain
6/10: Never Ending
5/10: Woo (I just can't get into it..? Probably needs to grow on me more)
0/10: Pose, Higher
???/10: Goodnight Gotham... I mean it sounds great but I wish it was the full song.

We'll probably get updates for her sales in a couple of hours.

[Anvarie]

Woo is great I don't get the hate

[DILF $]

Giving Pose and Higher a 0?

I thought so too but it's 'send for me' according to the lyrics on rihannanow.com

[theycallmemaraj]

This time last week I posted in here saying "I'm listening to my R8 playlist because I feel like something is happening"

--

5/5 - Kiss It Better, Woo, Needed Me, Same Ol' Mistakes, Higher, Sex With Me
4/5 - Consideration, Work, Desperado, Yeah I Said It, Never Ending, Love On The Brain, Pose
3/5 - Goodnight Gotham (I like it still), Close To You (havent listened to it enough, after Higher I skip it)

lyrics on both rihannanow.com and genius.com say otherwise. "Sin" is more fitting, but it's "send"
