What happened to Rihanna's Album?

[IllmaticDelta]

Rihanna started off in rnb, regage pop, then got edgier rock, then more urban sounding (pour it up & cake) and adult contemporary with diamonds. She is always tweaking her sound and that has never been a problem for her. Lots of her singles outside of edmdancepop have been platinum. She hasn't done that style since 2010 11 when it was popular.

The singles she's most known for are her Dance-Pop and ballad type songs. She was originally more of a "HipHop-Soul" styled artist but she didn't have the vocals for it.

i was just googling this, she went back to the lab, wanted to have edgier music that appealed to europe and US...so yea, she's looking for another "we found love". yall hating, but i fukk with rih, her music is good for what it's good for - clubbing and the gym and loud singing with your homegirls

i applaud her and bey for being two of the biggest names in a world that doesn't value black female beauty

Facts. I just don't get how the white pop chicks get more critical acclaim than them. I'm not saying they're making next level shyt, but you're not about to tell me that Ellie Goulding/Swift are out here making some next level shyt either. Then again, the Grammys hate Katy Perry too lol.

As for RIhanna, she has an entire AntiDiary campaign going on with her album to build interest. She has some sort of Samsung deal too, and she's about to tour worldwide with Sean and the Weeknd.

Rihanna never sang any hiphop soul music. She began as pop, rnb, reggae.

Four Five Seconds was complete garbage. The reggae remix was actually hot and should have been the original song. Those other 2 are forgettable. Kanye out here giving people leftover table scraps to eat off of. He fell off.

Say it again

 

[Unknown Poster]

And Theophilus London.

A Kanye West Exec Producer title on a major label and only sold 4k first week.

Her swag in that Rock in Rio performance


I heard she had some issues with being late on her last tour....she got

Big Sean
The Weeknd

Opening for her in Europe this summer?

Ri got some hits, but Sean and Weeknd sets alone . I think the crowd ain't gonna have any energy left for Ri set.

"HipHop Soul" is R&B. It's the modern, non-neo soul sounding R&B you heard all through the 90's.

"American Oxygen' is a really dope song, and one of Rihanna's more progressive tracks, content wise, esp. for a first single...Def Jam won't let Rihana drop until they feel confident it will hit, she is a money maker and marquee artist they won't let her go out like Ross, Jeezy, Jada...

She's not on Def Jam anymore.

 

[Piff Perkins]

put your album on Tidal brehs

She is not and never was hip hop soul in the beginning of her carrer. If you would like to be specific, she was a contemporary r&b singer, with mosty pop influence. She was never a soul singer. She was pop, r&b, and reggae. Google her first 2 albums, look at the genre section.

Hip hop soul - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

She's trying to be a credible edgy urban artist rather than be a faux edgy pop artist.
