So I just got the chance to preview some 30 sec. clips of Rihanna's
"Rated R"
I read a couple of comments before I decided to post because I didn't want
to go off what anyone else said, and I wanted to give my own opinion.
So I listened to it twice.
It's been garnering alot of negative feedback.
I think because of the whole Chris/Rihanna situation,
and because it's not the typical Rihanna music.
And mostly alot of ppl just live to hate on Rihanna.
Well IMO, from what I heard. I think I am gonna like it.
"Rockstar 101" features Slash, and it sounds like it has potential to become a hit for her.
It seems like it's driven by alot of emotional "power" ballads. Not saying that Rihanna's voice
captures that power. But it's written that way. Catch my drift.
In "Rude Boy" she has a Beyonce type flow. It sounds like a song that Beyonce
could blow out the water.
I can't wait to hear the full thing, and I'll be able to give a better opinion of it.
It's definitely a different sound for her. Very dark and different.
