Rihanna Shares ‘Unapologetic’ Snippets

Published: Tuesday 6th Nov 2012 by David

“Who knew the course of this one drive…”

This evening, snippets from Rihanna‘s forthcoming LP ‘Unapologetic’ surfaced online, two weeks before its November 19th due date.

From what’s been made available, it’s safe to say the singer has served up a Rock / Pop affair, jam packed with killer melodies and even harsher hooks.

Yes, it’s that promising.

Get into it below…

        Rih,,,,,,
        If you’re feeling frightened about what comes next, don’t be. Embrace the uncertainty. Allow it to lead you places. Be brave as it challenges you to exercise both your heart and your mind as you create your own path towards happiness, don’t waste time with regret. Spin wildly into your next action. Enjoy the present, each moment, as it comes; because you’ll never get another one quite like it. And if you should ever look up and find yourself lost, simply take a breath and start over. Retrace your steps and go back to the purest place in your heart.. where your hope lives. You’ll find you’re way again.

    • HALF AMAZIN November 6, 2012

      I can’t lie to my fave……My reaction to these snippets is 0_o !!!!!! This isnt shade OR hate because I ride HARD for RiRi but this s*** sounds A MESS!!!!!!!!!!!! What the f***?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?

      I’m confused, befuddled, disgruntled, all that s*** at the same damn time! The songs don’t sound cohesive and it sounds rushed.

      • HALF AMAZIN November 6, 2012

        What is the next single??????

        I’m seriously listening to this s*** again because I’m shocked and awed that I dont like it. Im really trying. Maybe I need to hear the full tracks. I usually dont like RiRi’s first single but love the album. I shoulda known the opposite would happen because I LOVED Diamond’s immediately :*(

      • HALF AMAZIN November 6, 2012

        LOVE:
        “Diamomds”
        “Diamonds” (Dave Aude Remix)

        SOUNDED BETTER THE 2ND TIME AND
        MIGHT GROW ON ME:
        “Phresh Out the Runway”
        “Numb”
        “Nobody’s Business” minus the rhythmic talking/chanting or whatever the f*** that is
        “No Love Allowed” – Had to throw in a sprinkle of Island flair, ehhhhh?

        OK:
        “Pour It Up” – sounds like Bandz A Make Her Dance 0_o
        “Jump”
        “What Now”

        HATE:
        “Love Song”- Future kills the whole song! Who the f*** authorized this????

        COULDA BEEN LEFT OFF/SONGS ID SKIP
        “Right Now” – David Guetta can go. All his s*** sounds the same now
        “Stay”- 0_o
        “Love Without Tragedy”
        Get It Over With – Everyone must’ve been high that day
        “Lost In Paradise”
        “Half of Me”
        “Diamonds” (Gregor Salto Remix)

        Overall…..I still hate it. I tried. If this s*** flops, girl, you had it coming. I’m ready for #8

      • Lax November 6, 2012

        RIH,,,,,,Know that in Life,,
        It’s okay. It’s okay to want someone you can’t have. It’s okay to want something more. It’s okay to cry when you’re hurt, and it’s okay to stay mad at someone who hurt you. Believe it or not, it’s always going to be okay. That’s just how it works. Sometimes things don’t work out how you want them to, and most of the time, it seems like they never will. But eventually, everything is going to iron out some way or another. You just have to believe, keep your faith, and move on.

        PS
        Keep the faith and stay the course, it’s only going
        to get better as time goes on.

    • LOLA November 6, 2012

      GIRL listen to “I care” and eat your words. Beyonce has been doing rock and soft rock jams since her first album in 2003 titled dangerously in love, which has rock songs such as Hip Hop Star and Speechless. Let’s not forget I am’s “That’s why your beautiful” and the beetle sound “Disappear”. But her song I care shows Beyonce CAN do rock. So bye chica

        Goodness real people know,,,,,that
        There are going to be days when you won’t have the energy or drive to get out of bed. There are going to be days when you’re going to want to give up – give up on love, life, or school. The thing is, you’re not allowed to give up. You were given a life and you’re supposed to live it. The truth is the seventy or eighty years that you’re given isn’t long enough to do the things you’re supposed to do. Sure, you’re gonna hit a few bumps along the way, but you’ve got to pick yourself up and move on. Life is unpredictable and things might not always work out the way you want them to, but that’s no reason to give up.

      On top of menu go to View
      Go to column browser
      click on Music
      Then pop
      Then all
      Then Rihanna
      Then Unapologetic (Deluxe)

    • MC (Benron is a drag queen) November 6, 2012

      Really?!?! I see no parallel between Rated R and this album. The only resemblance is that almost all the songs are explicit except for one and that Love without tragedy/ Mother Mary is 6 mins long like CCL…..

      • S****** Blonde November 6, 2012

        It is, it’s like Rated R and Talk That Talk were mixed together, although she miss a song like “Fire Bomb”.

      • MC (Benron is a drag queen) November 6, 2012

        No, I am not here for RR mixed with anything….I am only here for pure, unmixed RR type of album, which clearly this album is not from what I am hearing….I don’t know though….maybe after hearing the whole album/seeing reviews I will decide.

        @ Lax

        For example, I love ‘What Now’ but she’s singing like SIA! Her voice has never been able to hit those notes live. With all of that ‘weed smoking’ the girl is going to be hoarse and hollering to hit those notes, or letting her back up singers do it, or letting the backing track do it, or all of the above. She does that with almost every song now, even those that are in her range.

    I’m here for “Jump” tho , sound so arabian to me in the part before the crazy dubstep !

    as i said , it gonna flop hard !!

    • MC (Benron is a drag queen) November 6, 2012

      Okay, so I am not the only one who is puzzled and disappointed? I think its partly my fault because I was expecting RR 2.0 from her…..

      • RUDE NAVY November 6, 2012

        no , you are not the only one , and the navy is mad as hell ATM , you can actually feel it 😥

        because we can feel it before it hit.

    • RUDE NAVY November 6, 2012

      and the other songs are “CUTE”ve without tragedy” , esp ” numb” , “love without tragedy” , but my Hit-rader feel nothin’ at all !!! and those flopped attempts at creating R&B songs , a sad day for the old navy !! the new navy gonna love that s*** then vanish when the sales comes in.

      and that CB collabo will make her lose her loyal fan !! Rihanna haters rejoice , she made the impossible , she made herself flop !

      • Auntie_Jackie November 6, 2012

        Do you really think it’s a flop @ Rude Navy? I don’t think so, I think she’s got a couple of good ballads on there. Either way, because of all of the press she’s been getting, she’s going to do decent numbers the first week. I doubt this one will pick up much steam later, though.

      • S****** Blonde November 6, 2012

        Well is the Navy is mad then she’s gonna change the track listing that’s for sure, she’s smart and there is still time, but i’m serious when i say, you all are so hard with her, give her a chance to experiment with new sounds.

      • RUDE NAVY November 6, 2012

        @Auntie :

        take it from me and mark my words , the ballads aren’t strong enough to make her casual fans pick up this album , and chris brown being there in the STANDARD edition is *sigh*

        Rushed mess.

    • RUDE NAVY November 6, 2012

      she won’t win with those ballads tho , if “CKB” couldn’t be a #1 then no ballad/slow song from this one gonna hit #1 or even see the top 5 !!

      and CB bein’ in there will make this album FLOP hard !!

      • Auntie_Jackie November 6, 2012

        Diamonds isn’t a ballad, but it’s slow/mid-tempo and it’s Top 5. It will surprise the f*ck out of me if releasing the video/SNL promo doesn’t push it to number 1. That CB collaboration is just sad. She can have every seat in Satan’s amphitheater for playing that card again, and he can sit down right next to her for all I care.

        I doubt Diamonds will be #1 on ATRL, her fans are already saying they’re growing tired with it. Don’t be surprised if #3 is as high as it goes on BBhot100.. Die young will block it, kesha has sold over 650,000 copies already

        @FAF

        Ha$hee$ha’s new single is so commercial, it’s all about the same “I am the trashy, dirty, drunk party girl who smells like p***” s*** all over again we’ve been hearing since “I Gotta Feeling”. Unline “Diamonds”, which is a classical on which Rihanna shows vocal growth and talent.

      No matter what circumstances life throws in your direction, you have to believe that you can handle it. It’s really about our perception. There’s no such thing as a bad circumstance. All those things we perceive as bad are actually real growing experience in life. You have to see that everything that happens to you has come into your life for a reason, an we are challenged in life because that’s what life is all about. Life’s about how we deal with those challenges.

      Being a b**** means: I stand up for myself and my beliefs. I stand up for those I love. I speak my mind, think my own thoughts or do things my way. I won’t compromise what’s in my heart, I live my life my way. I won’t allow anyone to step on me, I refuse to tolerate injustice. It means I have the courage and strength to allow myself to be me. So try to stomp on, douse my inner flame, squash every ounce of beauty I hold within. You won’t succeed. And if that makes me a b****, so be it.

        Rihanna’s Diamonds,,,,,
        Mark my words: By the time she’s 40, Rihanna will have released 5,400 singles. In just a few weeks, she’s dropping her 7th album since 2005 (here’s a recap of her previous releases), which means we’ll be getting another batch of songs to make sure she’s perpetually in our ears.“Diamonds,” the first track from the new album, just appeared today, and it sounds like yet another smash.And here’s the best part: Unlike Ke$ha’s new song, which I dissed for sounding too much like her other material, “Diamonds” is a step in a different direction. Yes, it’s co-produced by Stargate, who have been delivering Rihanna hits since “Umbrella,” and yes, it’s got the electro sound that Rihanna herself helped popularize. But still, the song is not a lazy copy of what’s come before.
        For one thing, Rihanna practically sounds like a different vocalist. She sings the song—about how she and her lover are pulsing like “diamonds in the sky”—in a low register she hasn’t used on any of her other singles. Her voice is so husky that she almost sounds like she has a cold, and it gives “Diamonds” a certain… sobriety? Calmness? There’s something moody about the vocal, but it’s more contemplative than seductive. This is a track for the middle of the night, when you’re a tired but still want to move.

    • Lax November 10, 2012

      Rihanna’s Diamonds,,,,,,
      Definitely a departure from the Talk That Talk era!
      But that’s okay!
      Because we’re still feeling it…HARD!

      In fact, we’ll be curious to hear how this new direction influences the rest of the music Rih has in the works for us!

      • Lax November 10, 2012

        Rihanna’s Diamonds,,,,,,
        Though it’s still built around a hypnotic beat and shimmery keyboard, “Diamonds” sounds more like the kind of song you would put on after the club, as you stumble out and into the moonshine to “find light in the beautiful sea.” More spare and understated than the yellow diamond strewn “We Found Love,” it gives Rihanna space to take the lead and play. This sort of light experimentation makes us wonder if this seventh might be an album where Rihanna takes the reigns of her sound and does more than just make us dance.

      • Lax November 10, 2012

        Rihanna’s Diamonds,,,,,,
        “Diamonds” was produced by “Only Girl (In the World)” team Stargate, but the new tune deviates from the dance thump on “Girl” and “We Found Love.” Instead, it offers a more slowed and subdued production with Rihanna’s vocals at the forefront. The pop star sings about a sublime relationship where her and a lover “shine bright like a diamond” together. Rihanna delivers a very raw and earnest vocal performance on the Sia-penned song as her voice reaches its upper register. Even though Rihanna releases new albums like there’s no tomorrow, the pop singer manages to change up her sound with “Diamonds.” There’s definitely not a hint of the song that seems like it was slapped together last minute.

        Rihanna’s Diamonds,,,,,,
        Rihanna strikes back with the lead single off of her seventh studio album. “Diamonds,” is produced by Stargate, who have produced many hit records together including “Unfaithful,” “What’s My Name,” “Rude Boy,” and “Don’t Stop The Music.” This sounds like the connection between the Norwegian producers and the starlet have another hit on their hands with the powerful, “Diamonds.” Taking a slight step away from the party music that dominated the success of her previous album, Talk That Talk

    • Lax November 10, 2012

      Rihanna’s Diamond’s,,,,,,
      Rihanna has never been singular in her sound who would have dreamed up “We Found Love” after hearing “Pon De Replay”? and so no surprise she’s trying on yet another sound for this seventh round. “Diamonds,” the “hippy and happy” first single off of upcoming seventh album, finds Rihanna taking the tempo down a tic and singing bright like, well, a diamond. Produced by longtime Rihanna collaborators Stargate and written by Sia, “Diamonds” is shimmery and elegant as the title suggests it should be, and without any clear reference to Chris Brown.

      • Lax November 10, 2012

        Rihanna’s Diamonds,,,,,,
        I appreciate that Stargate and co-producer Benny Blanco maintain a mid-tempo pace throughout. I’d expect a song that begins this slowly to eventually get frantic, like “We Found Love,” but it maintains a relaxed vibe, relying on strings as much as synths to make an impact. And of course, this adds to the sense that “Diamonds” is for heavier moments in the night.

      • Lax November 10, 2012

        Rihanna’s Diamonds,,,,,,
        Now, I’m not saying this song will forever change our understanding of Rihanna, but it adds another facet to her career. It mixes things up just enough to demand attention, but not so much that we get confused. And let’s be honest: That’s what Rihanna’s brand of pop music is for. It’s supposed to be intriguing and accessible, a little bit smart and a little bit mindless all at once,,,,

      Everything you have been told is a lie. Things don’t happen for a reason. They just occur and you must deal with it, good or bad. People will always leave you because the potential for better is there thanks to the media. They do not care if they have to step on top of you to get to euphoria. Everybody has somebody they use. And everybody, everybody lies. They all get mad and say things they don’t mean. But once they are said, they are out there, unable to be shoved back down your throat.

    -When Talk That talk only had 10 tracks on the standard edition, it was not rushed.

    -When Talk That Talk did not even have a singer to do backup vocals for half the song so ester dean’s demo vocals were left in You Da One, Talk That Talk, We all want love, Farewell, Cockiness and Roc Me Out it was not rushed.

    -When #TTT was recording in hotel rooms next to cabinets of achohol it was not rushed but this is.

Do what you want, go where you want, and reach for the sky because life has no limits or boundaries. Boundaries are just other people’s fears, and limits are just other people’s expectations.

  46. RoyalKev November 6, 2012

    I’ll say it, Fresh out the Runway just feels so Bey inspired! I honestly thought Rihanna had more edge to her, but that was really forced! I guess she’s no longer soooo hard!

    Love with out tragedy – I’m so sick of people dropping Marilyn Monroe’s name. It’s played now! This is actually very meh … It sounds like one of those songs pretentious people will try to make more out of than there actually is.

    Lost in Paradise – is not bad! See, ya’ll thought this was going to be all hate. This one has something to it.

    Loveeeeeeee – This feels honest. It’s the best track! The way she’s singing and everything has more passion.

    The good thing about this is that it doesn’t sound like Gaga, Ke$ha(who I like), Katy music , etc … but this sounds like TTT 2.0 so far! That album was all kinds of confusion.

    Rihanna is trying so hard to be hood, rockstar and trendy. I need her to take her time and give me something real. She can be versatile(somewhat), that’s great – but it’s like her music doesn’t ever have any sincerity. If it did Rihanna would own her own lane. It’s kind of frustrating … I’m probably not going to like this girl until she either stop following trends or until she’s probably not on the charts anymore and making music that doesn’t have a formula to it. You hear 3 songs from Rihanna and you heard them all, but there’s actually more to her. I just think she’s scared to do it right now!

      I heard more of the album and I like to give credit where it’s due.

      So far I like Numb, Jump, Lost in Paradise &
      Loveeeee song …

      This album still feels TTT to me, but a slightly better version.

      http://www.thepagewithroyalkev.com

      • RoyalKev November 7, 2012

        … Still had to correct myself once again. I just figured it out. I hate the first half and the second is solid. I thought that I liked Loveeee song, but it’s annoying! I hate the first 5 tracks (except Numb). The order of the album would easily give you a bad impression right away. I’m glad those songs are all together because the Navy I know will be playing this album and I can just excuse myself until song #6 plays.

        I’m officially impressed with Numb, Jump, Right Now (Maybe), What Now, Stay, Get It Over with, Lost in paradise (No Love Allowed can grow on me). It’s the most songs I ever like on a Rihanna album. It’s getting there! Good for her!

        The album is a 7/10. I respect it!

But then, you’ll find your very own moment where none of that matters; where you can sit back and realize that s*** happens to the people who can handle it and that this is who you are, and that no one should want to change you, including yourself.

    I love this album. HER BEST. NO wonder the haters are fuming.

    Numb with em is so s*** – cannot wait to hear EM spit, sounds so Janet jackson. I love the song where she acting like n****, the crunked up song . Ja rule and Ashanti done thug love NYC style, now bad gal riri done trap love with that n****, futere. Future killed it. The swag is kray.

    Rih raps, does reggae, rock, pop, rnb and ballads in one whole album. Ciara wishes she had an album as diverse as this.

    LOL LOL Rita Ora must be crying right now. She is struggling with shina ya light and Rih swag / personality on this LP blows her s*** to hell. Rih just make Rita look like an elderly white woman from England, which is what she is. How can Rita copy now? I love the mix of chop and screw on the Slim shady track. Man she sounds so s*** on the Em track – the baseline.

      You’re still young. Don’t make your life miserable by thinking about problems. Instead, always think that in every problem there’s a solution and everything will be okay. Do what you think is right. Take risks, try new things, laugh and live as if there’s no tomorrow, for the next years of your life you’ll have no choice but to be more responsible. So enjoy while you’re still young and vibrant.
      People always think that happiness is a faraway thing, something complicated and HARD TO GET. Yet, what little things can make it up… a place of shelter when it rains, a cup of strong hot coffee when you’re blue; for a man, a cigarette for CONTENTMENT; a book to read when you’re alone, or just to be with someone you love. Those things make HAPPINESS.

    • Lax November 6, 2012

      Rihanna know that ,,,,
      It is completely normal to fear failure, to fear rejection, to fear the future, but it should never stop you from accomplishing a dream, making a friend, or confessing your love. Nothing is for certain and anything can happen. Isn’t that what makes life exciting? Not knowing what will happen next and even though people will tell you it is impossible, will point and laugh at your ways, and will crush your heart over and over again, you will continue to chase your dreams, make as many friends as possible, and pray that when you do find that special someone, they will blush for a moment, twiddle their thumbs, and look into your eyes and say, “I love you too.”
      What they say, life goes on, is mostly true. The mail is delivered, and the christmas lights go up and down from the houses, and the ladders get put away, and you open yet another box of cereal. In time, the volume of my feelings would be turned down in gentle increments to near quiet, and yet the record would still spin, always spin.

        B****, Beyoncé sold 2.5kk selling only R&B songs and pregnant. 2.5 f****** million. Your fave struggled to do that with a bunch of generic dance songs and discounts. King Bee’s on studio right now recording some smashes. Oh! Don’t forget that she’s going to write history next year, she has Super Bowl on her agenda and a Pepsi deal. She has two big things and her new single wasn’t even released yet.

        How the people who once wanted to spend every second with you, think a few minutes of their time is too much time to spare. How people make promises, and bear their souls to someone despite knowing how common it is for promises to be broken. How people can erase you from their lives ‘cause it’s just easier then working things out.

      Follow your heart and do what you feel is right, not what other people tell you to do. Fall in love, take a chance, and hope the other person feels the same. Love is a risk. It could bring either pleasure or pain, sometimes both. Life is a gamble, and you never know what it’ll bring.

      I don’t understand how you can smile all day long, but cry yourself to sleep at night. How pictures never change, but the people in them do. How you can love so innocently, but it can turn into anger so quickly. How your best friend can become your worst enemy. Or when your worst enemy turns into your best friend. How forever turns into a few short months that you’d do almost anything to get back. How you can let go of something you once said you couldn’t live without. How even though you know letting go of something is best for you, it hurts just the same.

  70. oh baby (b****** will Deal) November 6, 2012

    Hmm. So I’ve given the album a listen and it’s overall rubbish. …but with a few exceptions:
    1) no love allowed
    2) what now (I actually love love this)
    3) the song with Chris Brown
    4) half of me (my fav and it’s thanks to the brilliant emeli sande for her writing skills) rihanna’s best song yet!

    The maybes/ok songs:
    1) fresh off the runway (coz I’m a bit high right now and the rap sounded good)
    2) get over it (for the same reason as the first song)
    3) lost in paradise (like the beat)

    So out of the 5000 songs on her album to have only 4 standouts and 3 album fillers is a bad thing! !! This was your redemption album after the hot cheetto mess that was TTT the flopuluous one

      No one’s going to look at you and tell you they love you when that’s exactly what you want, life doesn’t work like that. You need to love yourself. Through the laughter, tears, and broken hearts, you need to love yourself before those boys who broke your heart made you laugh and caused your tears will ever love you. Don’t turn your back and look at those guys before you open up your eyes and look at your friends. You are what you are.

        Sometimes you have to be strong for yourself. You have to know that you are a good person and a good friend. What is meant to be will end up good and what is not won’t. Relationships are worth fighting for, but sometimes you can’t be the only one fighting. At time, people need to fight for you. If they don’t, you must move on and realize what you gave them was more than they were willing to give you. Hopefully, people realize great things when they come around and don’t lose something real. Always fight, until you can’t anymore, and then be fought for.

    So I guess she’s really going to capitalize off this Chris drama AGAIN this era….unfortunate. “Phresh off the Runway” is hot though, not here for a Chris Brown duet, especially a song called “Nobody’s Business” when she used that drama to promote this album by calling the papz whenever she goes out with him, plus Oprah. Idk, I’d have to give this a couple more listens but like I thought prior to these snippets, it’s nothing special…

  73. BEYONCE’S WEAVE November 6, 2012

    I can’t wait to buy this album.

  74. Neysie November 6, 2012

    I am a navy stan and i hate to admit it but this album does feel rushed. HOWEVER I do feel that if she picks the right singles, then it will be a winner. I’m not here for the future track or pour it up. Everything else is great. Rihanna is the only artist I can name right now that has covered reggae / Caribbean, R&B/soul, rock, pop, and make amazing Ballads AND still have much success on the charts. Shes up there with Whitney Houston as in terms of #1 singles and is the best selling digital artist of all time. Rih is unpredictable and always finds time to surprise you. I blame the media for only pinpointing her flaws and not giving her the recognition she deserves at times. US navy has a 50/50 chance of making it go #1 but if not then it will be a bit disappointing. Btw, I,am buying it and so far I love ‘What Now’ and Love without tragedy:)

    This is her best album yet and this time Rihanna is coming for all the charts including the rap charts. She has shown her growth and most of all versatility.

    Rihanna NEVER does the same kind of album twice. This is amazing no matter how much you hate. Keep on fuming, I love it, I love it.

  77. joker November 6, 2012

    “pour it out” the bass. that’s good.

    they murdered the “jump” with wrong dubstep of the edge.

    definetely wanna hear “what now” live. that could rock.

    “the business” sounds like a 80’s disco. dumb sampled.

    “mother mary” got a fine guitar sound live.

    “no love” is a fine root.

    “half of her” is good also. but not enough.

    “the paradise” can rock some lifes too.

    couple of songs seem like album fillers….. but this album is fiyah

    Gon head Rihanna

  80. Beyonce’s Weave November 6, 2012

    – FRESH OUT THE RUNWAY

    – DIAMONDS

    – NUMB

    – POUR IT UP

    Rihanna’s first attempt at a rap song and I am impressed. Nicki Minaj, though I love her, better hold on to her collection of wigs because Riri is coming to snatch

    – LOVE SONG

    Love song is giving me Kelly Rowland – I’m dat chick tease, the only difference is that Rihanna DOES IT BETTER

    – JUMP

    Did Rihanna just get a 90s RnB smash (Ginuwine – Pony ) and make it better? Yess mam she did, this chick is so ahead of her time. She has once again beaten all odds with her innovation. I hope all your fav’s have their notebooks handy, taking several seats and are taking notes.

    – RIGHT NOW

    This will most definitely be a smash hit

    – WHAT NOW

    Is amazing. This showcases Rihanna’s vocal ability and proves that Rihanna CAN SING. Well done, potential hit

    – STAY

    Is Rihanna now doing ROCK ballads? Oh yes maam, this chick is so versatile. This shows Rihanna’s versatility and proves how Rihanna is a stand out act.

    – NOBODIES BUSINESS

    This song is giving me Janet Jackson, this is most definitely a song Janet Jackson could have recorded, it is beautiful, stripped back and a pulled back dance song that is catchy and addictive. Very well played.

    – LOVE WITHOUT TRAGEDY

    Arguably one of the best songs on the album, this story just speaks to the person and tells a story. This is not a song, this an artistic piece, a story told in a beautiful compelling art form, which can only be done by Rihanna. This song will hit straight to the heart and have you thinking and believing every single word. This is a truly compelling piece.

    – GET IT OVER WITH

    This is an RnB hit, this shows that Rihanna has not forgotten about the genre, but not only that, it also shows that Rihanna does RnB better. Better than many of the acts out there today, her voice is just so unique and suits well with the genre. Her vocal abilities have improved a lot and her voice has gotten stronger.

    – NO LOVE ALLOWED

    My favorite from what I’ve heard so far, this brings Rihanna back to her island roots, Rihanna is proud of where she comes from and the people are proud of her. This song proves that it doesn’t matter where she goes, she will always be proud of her Island roots and will showcase her culture proudly.

    – HALF OF ME

    This is most definitely giving me Coldplay tease, this song is probably one of the best Rock Ballads Rihanna has done. This song showcases Rihanna’s versatility and journey as an artist. It represents the people she has met, has sang with and shared the stage with and the different things she has learned and picked up along the journey. This song proves that Rihanna is not only a skilled artist but a learner too.

    – LOST IN PARADISE

    This shows Rihanna’s playful but soulful side. This song is also one of the best on the album and is a great tune to keep you wanting more. Rihanna has done it again.

    Overall this is the BEST album Rihanna has done thus far. This is a wonderful art piece and I am proud of Rihanna. She has shown her different sides on this album and I will be buying most definitely. This is the best I’ve heard from Rihanna from start to finish. This is truly a work of art.

    Live in the moment and don’t dwell on the past. Find the good in everybody, think positive and do positive. Break the rules and take the chance of getting caught.
    The only thing I really wish to do with my life is to inspire someone. I want to touch someone’s life so much that they can genuinely say that if they have never met me then they wouldn’t be the person they are today. I want to save someone; save them from this cold, dark & lonely world. I wish to be someone’s hero, someone that people look up to. I only wish to make a change, even if it’s a small one. I just want to do more than exist.

    Rihanna,,,,,Life often times,
    all the bad stuff you’ve went through, the people who’ve disappointed you and the things that didn’t go your way…Suddenly you feel grateful for them, because those are the things that got you here. Those are the things that made you strong. Those are the things that helped you learn who you can trust, who you can depend on and those are the things that showed you what it’s like to struggle, but in the end turn out just fine.

    We live in a world of worst case scenarios. We cut ourselves off from hoping for the best because too many times, the best doesn’t happen. But every now and then, something extraordinary occurs. And suddenly, the best case scenarios seem possible. Every now and then, something amazing happens, and against our own better judgement, we start to have hope.

    miss that feeling when you go to sleep at night and when you wake up in the morning. It’s the feeling that everything is alright in the world. You know, that amazing feeling when you’re whole, that you’ve got everything you want, that you aren’t missing anything. Sometimes when I wake up, I get it for a moment. It lasts a few seconds, but then I remember what happened, and how nothing has been the same since.

  87. Lax November 6, 2012

    Rihanna,,,,
    It’s okay to want someone you can’t have. It’s okay to want something more. It’s okay to cry when you’re hurt, and it’s okay to stay mad at someone who hurt you. Believe it or not, it’s always going to be okay. That’s just how it works. Sometimes things don’t work out how you want them to, and most of the time, it seems like they never will. But eventually, everything is going to iron out some way or another. You just have to believe, keep your faith, and move on.

    Haters,,,,,,
    Sometimes, we’re too into the moment to look at the big picture. We fail to see things in perspective because we’re too absorbed in what’s taking place at that very instance. The thing is we should face reality. Find ourselves from being lost in the moment and think about everything the way it is. Because sometimes being realistic can save us from pain and disappointment.

  89. Lax November 6, 2012

    I think life isn’t as complicated as we make it out to be. We are constantly looking for answers. But there are no answers, things just happen. The good and the bad. To see the rainbow you’ve got to put up with the rain. It happens, and there is nothing we can do about it. The universe isn’t made up of questions, waiting for us to answer.

  90. Lax November 6, 2012

    What you say,,,,
    The mind may have forgotten, but the body remembers everything in the melody of a song, in a rip of a dress, in a taste stuck at the tip of your tongue, in the freckled constellation splattered across your light skin, in a look not meant to be a look, in the movement of their hips against yours, in a graze between nervous hands, in the loud beat of your beating heart. In one moment, the body remembers everything so vividly, so wildly, as if it were experiencing it the first time & the last time combined an explosion of sorts that will never seem to leave with time. These things have become pieces of us, that have found a way to stay forever, as much as we deny it ever happened. But the reality is that it was never a figment in fact, it was our realest dream somehow brought to life.

    The biggest challenge Rihanna is gonna face with this album is which track to pick as a single. I hope if she has plans to release the Chris Brown track as a single, I hope she does not do it now build the anticipation a little. I hope there is a clean version of it.

  98. Island calling (attention w****) November 7, 2012

    You’re all ranking based on clips. That’s hoodrat even for you ratchet fans. I listened and half the damn preview sounded like one song. It’s s***. Like microwaved faeces. Mark my words thus will be the ‘album’ that will have you navy arrogant bastards sunk and off the damn radar.

  99. JER November 7, 2012

    As somewhat of a Rihanna fan, the album is a bit of a disappointment. It’s def a step backward. This album sounds like it was released after Good Girl Gone Bad but it still sounds like a solid album.

    “Numb,” “Stay,” “Love Without Tragedy,” and “No Love Allowed” are the def standouts sure to be fan favourites. All the features need to be immediately axed as they add or will add nothing to the song. I can see Eminem’s ass ruining “Numb”

    “Nobody’s Business” is the weakest track, it sounds f****** ridiculous and like a Girl Like Me b-side. Chris Brown grrrl bye.

    IMO the album is weak as hell from these clips. Maybe I’ve just been riding high because I liked Loud better than Rated R and then Talk that Talk better than Loud.

    Another issue is the album is too long. A Rihanna album needs to be 10-12 songs max Rihanna can’t pull off 15 songs it turns into way too many pretty good songs and the fire burns out. Some of the clips are huge duds and these are long ass clips. Hopefully for Rihanna this album will get people’s first week coins because Keyshia Cole might spank dat ass grrrl!!!!

    Anyway, the reason Loud was so good was because those 10 songs were fire!!!!! These songs sound ok. Surely SURELY by God this will be the last of Rihanna’s album every year BS because she’s obviously hit a wall.

    One last thing, Where is Calvin Harris? Grrrrrrrrrrl you’re telling me you couldn’t get it together with Calvin and turn at least ONE track out. Grrrrrrrlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll.
