I love Rated R

I'm not sure yet if it's better than GGGB but definitely a great album imo

Welurru · #82 13th November 2009, 07:15 PM

The Wait ... wasn't worth it

Where's dancey, euro Rihanna? This could have been any up and comers R&B album. Plus, considering they censored 'ass' on Breakin Dishes, and the censor in Disturbia I don't know what her label is thinking. A few Mo Fo's and even the N-Bomb ... No RiRi, no!

Russian Roulette video did EXACTLY what I DIDN'T want it to do x_x

aloopy · #84 13th November 2009, 09:41 PM

uhm.... no. just no.

I only like Wait Your Turn & Rude Boy

maybe the album will grow on me... hopefully

GRACE · #85 13th November 2009, 11:58 PM

I cancelled my preorder, I'm pretty disappointed with the album

...

I really liked Russian Roulette and Te Amo, but everything else was garbage

TITANIC · #86 14th November 2009, 01:03 AM

I'm so disapointed with Rated R. it comes out of what I expected.

.... why does she change her style?

I hope her next album will do better

Corvina · #88 14th November 2009, 03:34 PM

Ahm, sorry, but Rihanna only had one album, Good Girl Gone Bad, and it was 7th best selling album worldwide for 2008.
Oh yeah, she isn't an album seller at all.

PoetGirl · #89 14th November 2009, 03:48 PM

She did not have only one album! Lol, she had a girl like me and music of the sun.

freedreamer · #90 14th November 2009, 03:51 PM

Where's our Disturbia girl....

I agree that Russian Roulette is amazing but the rest...haiz..im disappointed too

but its definitely a more mature Rihanna, which shows thru her voice and music. I'm proud of that but...the music and style needs to be there too

Ok, sorry, I've never heard of them. lol
But I've researched now and Music of the Sun sold about 2 million worldwide and A Girl like me about 3 million.
So I wouldn't call her "not an album seller".

I wouldn't doubt if a lot of those copies sold after GGGB was released. Rihanna has always had a hard time selling albums, Pon De Replay was a huge hit but the album tanked in comparison. The same thing happened with S.O.S./Unfaithful.

I really am liking the new album. Its obvious that she is trying to prove something, and after awhile it kind of starts to grate on your nerves. Other than that its a solid effort. I think most people are let down because they expected GGGB part 2.

U-GO-BOY · #93 14th November 2009, 04:45 PM

I think the album is okay.. it's nothing special and I don't like her change :/ I wanted some party songs..
I like Wait Your Turn, Hard, Russian Roulette and i <3 Fire Bomb.. the other songs are so-so

and I liked the RR PV, I loved the scenes in the water <3

PoetGirl · #94 14th November 2009, 05:00 PM

yes, i agree with Fitst. rihanna really become popular with umbrella,
but other than that i personally cant get into her music.
i like 2 of her songs take a bow and unfaithful, but her voice is killing
everything. on new album you can also hear how her voice is weak
and annoying.

Maemi · #95 14th November 2009, 06:56 PM

I just listened to the whole Rated R and I must say it wasted my time. It's unbelieving boring. I like only Russian Roulette.

***koumori*** · #96 15th November 2009, 07:32 AM

Eh, the album is okay. Based off the comments here, I was expecting complete crap - but it's not that bad at all xD I like most of the songs.

~ At the argument ~

Guys, please grow up :/ This is a thread to talk about her music .. hopefully in a positive way. And if you've only liked two of her songs and have just posted negative-negative-negative since then, I can't understand why you're still here. Sure post one bad review and still check it out, but to continue is just baiting Rihanna fans =o=;

TITANIC · #97 16th November 2009, 01:59 PM

from Rated R, i only like :
1. Wait your turn
2. Stupid in love
3. russian roulette
thats all.. the others are so damn boring. I dont like her new image
She's good in upbeat song like dont stop the music or breakin dishes

Maemi · #98 16th November 2009, 02:09 PM

I don't know about everyone else, but I find this album too "mature" for her. Like she's going in a totally wrong direction.

Sundae · #99 17th November 2009, 07:00 AM

Well, they did describe the album as edger and totally different than what we are used to. That being said, I also wanted something like GGGB but I don't mind this sound either. This album is cohesive. That dark sound is in every song. Also I love her voice in this album. She has this rough edge to her voice that fits great with this sound. It's good that she doesn't want to be doing the same sound. They've been pumping this up to be like her Janet. or Velvet Rope. It's not that. It's too much of the same to be like those albums. Don't have favorite songs yet. Still listening.

Is it me or is Jay-Z not on this album?

sora-kara · #**100** 17th November 2009, 10:08 PM

I found the first five tracks to be really boring.
but from 6 onwards i really enjoyed it.

i dont like that hard is the second single though. :/
