It's funny how all the Beyhive jumped on this yet not one probably has gone to see ha. I thoroughly enjoyed the Anti tour,; Rih's voice was amazing. I've been to the lipsynched shows Beyonce puts on and tbh, considering, she's good but still doesn't have the same dynamic Janet does when she performs (yes, I'e seen a Janet show as well). Carry on. . . . .

Why is it funny? I have no time to waste. It's not like I don't know how good her performances are.

well having a job allows you to actually buy tickets & albums and not rely on corporate giveaways, scavenger hunts & free streams so your fave can have the best selling release WW and the #1 tour

maybe you should think about getting one

Omg

She doesn't have the reputation of being a great performer and consistently putting on great shows while being on time and being professional so I guess that's why

honestly...its not even about the toned down production b/c alot of those old rock band artists dont have big pop productions & still sell out. its the combination of it all. she doesnt have big stage production...but she doesn't make up for it in having a solid vocal ability to where none of it makes a difference...ala Adele. she can't play any instruments...so its not like anybody is coming to see any musicianship. she is a lazy half assed dancer....so there's no draw in being entertained by a dance show.

she brings no factors together...i saw one performance from the tour...it was nothing more than karaoke. the backtrack & the crowd sang half the song. she has the #1 hits....but what's the incentive in spending $100+ dollars rather than streaming it on Spotify?? maybe they'll come for the fashion and see what hairstyle she's going to wear for the show??

I definitely agree with this

Beyoncé's "lipsynched" shows will forever be more successful and respected than Rihanna's shows and that's just the fact of the matter. Sorry that is upsets you, but that's what your therapist is there for.

It's not that at all. . .what I find interesting is the expectations that black, women performers are all suppose to perform the same way like they can't be diverse. Beyonce and Janet are more alike when you look at performance styles than Rihanna and Beyonce and yet. . . . . Rihanna and Beyonce have two different styles of everything, period. They shouldn't be compared but yet it's done and with that said; when going to a Rihanna show--No I don't want to see her dance or try to put on this pseudo-Broadway production number. .just sing the songs I like and do it well along with her swag and that is what she give me. To go to a Rihanna show expecting different is delusional. She does fine with touring numbers which aren't even her strong suit.

True!!

Free-streaming being the only thing saving the Anti-fiasco is further proof that the public only care about her for her cheap hits and nothing more.

[WEEKND]

I saw her live and I had a blast

So many bops in such a short amount of time. I hardly could take it.

But yeah her whole IDGAF attitude is what's hurting her. She's like any gorgeous girl whining in a club at 3AM on stage.

[alfonso12]

I think people know she's an average performer. they just want to stream those hits that radio plays, not watch her perform.

[Thuggin]

She doesn't have a reputation as an amazing performer like Beyoncé and she also isn't as family friendly as Katy or Taylor.

I attended Anti tour and the production was not great, and she was late.
She didn't have a good touring reputation to begin with and she didn't make it much better with this tour

I will say, her vocals were really good so idk why you're dragging the sis for that.

Unless you have been, don't call it a bad show



A lot of people don't think she is good live, though, from performances like award shows etc and that is maybe why they didn't go to see her.

Yea I went to her second show (Tampa) earlier this year and I was SHOOK. Much better than the loud tour I went to years ago. She sounded GREAT and performed great. I feel like she got lazier as the tour went on but at my show it was lit af. I was also kinda drunk but I had a blast. This tour actually makes me wanna go see her again (if she performs like she did at my show)

Riri is the youngest female artist to achieve #STADIUM-STATUS in sooooo many countries.
This post is by definition stupid.

She CHOOSES not to do 100+ dates unlike her peers because her eras are usually less than 1 calendar year.
I remember how the Loud Era started when she was still on the Last Girl On Earth tour.
The TTT era started while she was still on the Loud Tour.

YAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWN

Yet she reached stadium status at 25yo and she didn't need 2 super-bowl halftime or 20 years of career to get there either...


So Rihanna must be doing something right!

Agreed. Loud Tour was not a good representation of Rihanna's style. The outfits, choreography and setlist choices for Diamonds World Tour, The Monster Tour and ANTi World Tour are much suited to her style and attitude.

She's not a good performer

Beyoncé first performed in a stadium in 2007 with the B'day experience.

[Trav]

honestly, she doesn't give good performances on average
the anti era may change that, she had some good televised performances, but typically she is absolutely terrible live

[Tutankhamun]

Certain fanbase coming for Rihanna's touring power when their fave can't even gross 100M with more dates..FFS

Well that's because not many artists release an album per-year so they don't have an 8-album discography by the time they turn 28 so let's not use age as a factor here.

- Gaga did her first stadium date with her 2nd album (or 1st depending on how we see The Fame Monster)
- Katy did her first stadium date with her 3rd album
- Adele did her first stadium date with her 3rd album
- Taylor did her first stadium date with her 4th album
- Rihanna did her first stadium date with her 7th album

Nothing impressive there.
