The whole point is that the incident gave Rihanna depth as a character and her music as a pop artist. Can you imagine if Beyonce or Katy or Gaga or any other popstar tried with the melodramatic relationship songs? We would all roll our eyes in disbelief. Rihanna can pull it off convincingly because it comes as autobiographical and real b/c we all know she lived it.

Thats what 90% of black women sing about anyway so yah she could have pulled it off.
And Lana, Gaga, Adele etc

Pop was only shallow in the Britney years (00-07)

4 was the lowest selling album of her career since her first Destiny's Child album in 98 and her only one without a Top 10 hit. That's more than an underperformance, that's a flop. Everybody was expecting 4 era to be her hugest yet coming right after the huge IASF era. It deserved IASF's era success. IASF should have been her flop

But hasn't it sold almost 1.5 million in the US?

Even I feel like some songs are personal to me and I didn't write, sing nor produce them so that doesn't make much sense.

Disturbia has around 70M views on youtube.
Take a Bow has 140M views.
Don't Stop the Music has 210M views.

Disturbia is probably her most forgoten #1.

Justin Timberlake never fully explained his role in exposing Janet Jackson, and Jackson said later she was upset that he remained mostly silent when people blamed her for Nipplegate.

White devil.

you dont necessarily have to write it though

The way Rihanna as a singer interprets the song and reproduces it to the mass makes it personal

Have you ever read a poem or book and really connected to it so much that you consider it personal??? Youd be lying if you said you didnt

Rih has like the least personality of the popgirls

The writers write songs ''personal'' to Rihanna. When The GP hears Rihanna singing about being a victim of love or a dysfunctional relationship (i.e. 70% of her music post-incident), they think its personal because they don't care about credits.

Yep, you can clearly distinguish between the songs written specifically for Rihanna and the ones that weren't.

Personal

of, pertaining to, or coming as from a particular person; individual; private

She can interpret all she wants though it will never be something personal unless she sits her ass down and writes her own lyrics.
