For all her shortcomings, there’s no denying Rihanna‘s music will go down in Pop history as some of best.
Sure, while this is no credit to her skill as a writer, her brand of high end Pop does make for impressive listening with or without the bells and whistles in place to push it.
Now check her performing one of the songs- ‘Stay‘- during her gig at London’s Twickenham Stadium below!
Let us know…

She needs to work on her voice.
explain why a man like JAYZ who could have signed any black girl signed Rihanna and invested his millions into her???????
you ppl an hate on Rihanna
………..SHE HAS THE MOST Unique/original voice in pop
Pretty sure she meant “live vocals”.
that doesn’t answer my ????????
…\\
Why wld JayZ sign Rihanna and spend millions on her, and take a business risk.
if Rihanna was soooooooo un-talented and couldnt sing.
Jayz signed her he could’ve signed anyone..
..
@Earthstone
I am pretty sure that @Raissa & H20 are talking about Rihanna’s “live” performances.
I love Rihanna but I refuse to let my being a fan of hers delude me. It is a proven fact that she lacks vocal stamina and endurance when singing in a “live” setting. Sometimes, she is fantastic and at other times, she can be, honestly and generally speaking, sub-par and mediocre.
By all means, she is not talented. She has her own unique vocal style and she utilizes it to the best of her ability.
Also, Rihanna smokes and drinks. Yes, each to their own but let’s not pretend that those substances can have a deadly, long-term affect on one’s vocal cords, destroying their, overall, tone and range.
Oh LAAAWD here goes this pathetically extra INBRED b**** with her cuumbyya novel. B**** u work my nerves @jared! #rolls eyes
@JARED…..
…why did jayz risk his reputation, lose $$$$ and sign Rihanna if she could not sing even live??
….
…why do you think JAYZ would do this, he could have signed ANY PRETTY BLACK GIRL .
……….
why Rihanna ???
is it her original sound that is hard to duplicate?
…JAYZ is a smart man, tell me why rih rih ?
How many untalented artist get signed??? I mean maybe he liked her look. Maybe she had a good audition. I dunno, and Im not saying that Rihanna doesn’t have talent. But the fact that Jayz signed her doesn’t mean that she can sing.
She sang a Whitney song when she auditioned. I’d love to hear that.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkS5iTKCNRI
THE QUESTION????
why if Rihanna is soooo ugly and just sing would JAYZ spend his millions and risk his reputation.
…..
why did TI, Justin, Kanye, Nicki and soo many other artists risk sales by putting Rihanna on their album???
…..
If she was soooooo un-talented how did she snatch a man like Mr.Carter???
..
explain? is it her original/unique voice that he heard.
… Unbelievable….Wow… My friend Emily has just married to a handsome wealthy black man. They met through ~~~BlàckWhìteHūb. ℂom ~~ ~ ~~A Serious black white dating for black & white single s seeking interracial relationships, friendships, dating ,love and more.. So, if you want to look for people with which you can date, you are at the right place.You can meet(lawyers,busy professionals, benefactors. models, celebrities, etc….)If you are single, perhaps you can have a try.
britney couldn’t sing AT ALL AT ALL. she runs LAPS around rih’s forhead in album sales, fame, touring, record breaking, etc. etc. etc.
voice and talent has nothing to do with who gets signed. come on now.
DEATH HONEY!!!!!^^^
3.5/5
yeah that is how many records Rihanna last record sold
3.5 million.
She’s horrible Live.
Will never waste my coins on here.
I Knew You were Trouble>>>Stay.

Lmao Red alone shits on Unapologetic!! I think you’re the one who should be slowing down.
Taylor Swift is a Legend she shits on every artist Right now. Talented,Real,Beautiful. Not like that infected S** you stan for.
Taylor Swift>>>Rihanna
About Vocals you’re a Rihanna fan too you shouldn’t be judging people about vocals atleast taylor is improving. Now STFU and join the rest of the navy. you really don’t deserve to breath.

LMAO
So, WAIT…
Are you truly going to act as if ‘Taylor Swift’ is any better when it comes down to “LIVE PERFORMANCES”?
O*M*F*G!!!
IM SORRY HER SINGING HURTS MY EARS & HER SONG WRITERS ATE GETTING PAID SHE’S NOT THE REASON WHY THERE SELLING MUCH LIKE WHITNEY HOUSTON’S “I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU!!
But Whitney was(crack habit aside) and Rihanna is rich. How’s minimum wage working out for you?
Honey, no one forced you to listen, do one.
yeah you are one SORRY mUtha fucka you got that right.

Watch her live in Antwerp, she was freaking amazing!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=691PdMhFlQo
LOL at what this British Journalist said.
A new adjective is needed to describe a Rihanna concert: “pertory” (perfunctory minus the funk). In nearly 30 years of writing about music, I don’t think I’ve ever witnessed a major star look so bored. I’ve seen mannequins at H&M more engaged with what they’re doing.
For much of the Diamonds show, the singer can’t even be bothered to disguise her contempt for the audience. She doesn’t even pretend she isn’t miming: at one point she holds the microphone closer to the crotch of her brocade hotpants than her mouth while the vocals, studio-perfect, continue uninterrupted.
Backed by six equally listless dancers, with Nuno Bettancourt from Extreme doing the occasional widdly guitar solo, she’s desperately lacking in dynamism. A reluctant leg in the air, an I’m-a-table pose on all fours, a flick of her Charlie’s Angels hair and that’s your lot. Like an apprentice at a sewage farm, she’s going through the motions.
Not magic, but mathematics. Rihanna has no mystique on her side, no star quality to speak of. Merely that lesser commodity, celebrity: the tawdry accumulation of Youtube hits and magazine covers. And it’s the 65,000, more than she, who create the best moments, drowning her out through a thick, bass-heavy “Umbrella”.
did they mention beyonce was a rip off thief who has to steal images to sell concert tickets.
and use stolen costumes from other girls.
or were they just obsessed with rihannas p**** like you are
But she has writing credits. Everyone isn’t a damn songwriter….although she has credits on damn near every track on RR, TTT and UNA 🙄 and I am no longer interested in DWT or Mrs Carter clips.
I am only Interested if Beyonce gonna reveal another Song from her upcoming Album in one of her tour dates.
I watch Rih’s DWT vids everyday , so……
BTW , I wanna let you know I started to like you and i got a respect for you.
Awe thanks boo. I know I was off the hook when I started posting on here, but I matured in real life so I had no choice but to do so on the blogs too. Muahhh!
Good. 😀
Me too tbh.
I didn’t know swallowing c** can polish your vocals
Is that why Katy’s vocals are so dry? She hasn’t had any since her husband left her. 😆
I am on the floor . .
I laughed at your comment until I read ur nickname ..
Gurl bye
Why would a Katy stan hate on Rihanna when they are best friends? I will never understand it.
Girl gtfohwtbs. Katy eats Rhi’s p**** and everyone knows it so katy should b awsome vocally cause Rhi bust in her mouth so y is Katy so horrible? Back the f*** up offa Rhi b****
I threw up a lil tbh ..
I love Stay, Rihanna does this song justice. I also love Lost in Paradise.
Why doesn’t this blog owner post about Taylor Swift slaying b****** bald. Where ma white b****** at? Rihanna looks horrible on that picture euwww. Amanda Bynes was right though. I hate people who aren’t talented, atleast my fave writes her song and performs them live and sounds good.
I never understood why this site had Taylor “stans” when Sam rarely posts about her 😆 #bandwagon #fake
This blog needs to report on actual music NEWS if I see one more ‘Rihanna performs —- Live in London’ or ‘Beyonce storms Belgrade with —-‘ Idk…
It was ok at first but how many more amateur videos can you put up from these girls tours lol?
I see no lies.
tgj is mainstream. stuck in the pop gutter. what you expect? they need the popular post daily. and they will and have to promote that. if you want real music better go somewhere else.
She slayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyed!!!! Love u Riri<3
She really sounds good on this song. IMO.
Unique song , The emotions >>
chillllll
TODAY: in the Metro-newspaper: Mojotickets is warning rihanna fans here in Amsterdam that she possible will be late…. and its better to come by car than by public transport!!!
yeahhhhh that reign right ??????
seriously?!? hahahaha. 😀
Ohhh wow, really?? I hope thats not true.
This song will forever remain one of her best…
Her voice shone in places that I didn’t even know existed.
Yes Rihanna. 😉
It was decent. You can tell she was really concentrating.
I’m not hating I’m sure she didn’t wright this song. It is a great ballad but the truth is she’s HORRIBLE live even her face is ugly euww. Amanda Bynes>>> my white b****!!! Rihanna wants to white sorry boo you’re black f*** off. 14 years old but can see that Rihanna is horrible live.
Well…….that’s why they are vocal coaches she can always get better
She should just sing ballads. She sounds very well when she’s not moving and singing dance songs. This was ok. I think this is her best live performance. I miss her energy:(
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-kVuxegVSk
I agree.
Rihanna’s timbre (tonal color & quality) shines the brightest, in a “live” setting, when she is singing easy-listening- based ballads or slow-tempo songs i.e: ‘Stay, Unfaithful, Take a Bow and Russian Roulette’ etc. as opposed to more up-tempo/up-beat songs.
But, I honestly believe that it is the Alcohol and Smoking that is affecting her – those two substances can truly drain you of any kind of physical energy, stamina, endurance etc… I am surprised she hasn’t collapsed yet.
Exactly.
I agree @Jared.
Looooved that performance! I feel like Rihanna is EXHAUSTED. And IF shes releasing another album this year, she needs to focus on PROMOTING IT instead of touring, work on her consistency, slay award shows, talk shows etc…ya know to regain the publics faith in her live performances, take a break then come back and SLAY with another world tour. But hey, that’d be in a perfect world…
I Agree. Yes. I mean, she is releasing Pour It Up video this week and the song is already dead on radio :/ Right Now is a new single too but she is not even performing it on tour. The song doesn’t have video, promotion, but it still gets good radio updates. Her label is really messy. I want her to release Greatest Hits album and then take a long break and come with 8th album 😀
that’s exactly what i have been saying since 2007.
Everything about this performance SLAYED. . from her style to her vocals. I really can’t get enough of Rih!!!!!
The only song this basic b**** doesn’t sound a mess singing
Ciara stan stfu and continue to bite your nails as your faves release date approaches. Kelly is on track to 60k, so I KNOW you’re nervous. 😆
Nervous for what f**? Ciara actually has a top 40 hit on her hands something Kelly doesn’t ahahahahahahahaha
Top 40? Cute. Hopefully her album won’t drop outta the top 40 after the 3rd week. 😆
SHUT THE F*** UP! YOU F****** CIARA-MAN STAN. THAT OVER MUSCULAR BODY BUILDING FLOP ASS H** CAN’T SING FOR S***. THE FACT THAT SHE’S THE SPITTING IMAGE OF FLOYD MAYWEATHER’S OLDEST SON DOESN’T HELP MUCH EITHER H**!
Standing on the Sun #LEAKED

Her body is glistening with sweat?
Yukk . .

Lmao Red alone shits on Unapologetic!! I think you’re the one who should be slowing down.

Taylor Swift>>>Rihanna
About Vocals you’re a Rihanna fan too you shouldn’t be judging people about vocals atleast taylor is improving. Now STFU and join the rest of the navy. you really don’t deserve to breath.

Honey, A Taylor Swift fan shouldn’t be talking about STDs considering she f**** more guys than a 2 dollar hooker in Vegas.
Secondly, a Taylor Swift fan CANNOT talk about vocals because Taylor Swift’s vocals are non existent. I mean Lana Del Rey has got more vocal ability on an off day than Taylor Swift will ever have in her entire career. Honey, RE-SEAT YOURSELF.
Even tho I dont like Taylor Swift she may not be he best voice she she is capable of singing ALL of her songs without sounding a mess. Plus we all know Taylor is slaying so stop being bitter
Honey, Taylor Swift cannot sing period.
hell they both can’t sing to be real with you

TRASH!!! I’ll never understand this b****, her voice annoys me she should stick to ghetto anthems “Pour It Up,Presh of runway”. Sweety ballads aren’t for you …..
I’m that b**** I tell it like it is. I swear these retarded b****** including that random s*** “Likica” are coming for mariah now!
First of all, don’t call me a s*** since you don’t know me at all. Second, learn some manners and spare me your hood tricks. Third, no one mentioned Mariah Carey and I don’t care about her. Fourth, stop mentioning my name and find some hobbies.
But she sounds her best when she sings her ballads im not even a fan but thats the truth.
That “sweety ballad” slayed the charts though. Stay mad adolescent.
Is a Taylor Swift really talking about performance ability? Honey, Rihanna has gotten standing ovations for her LOUD medley at the Brits and AMAs, she’s gotten standing ovations for both stay and we found love performances at the Grammy’s and got a standing ovation for both Diamonds and Stay at X Factor UK.
The only place Taylor Swift can get a standing ovation is at a w**** house for her d*** sucking abilities. Honey, RE-SEAT YOURSELF.
Taylor sounds a mess trying to hit high notes plus she flat majority of the time
I think she’s being overworked.
Truth.
Truth. . sadly truth. I want Rih to enjoy her dominance.
To be real Rihanna only sounds good singing her ballads like Diamonds, Stay, CKB , Rehab etc… she sounds a mess singing WHYB,S&M, WFL etc
“Rihanna‘s music will go down in Pop history as some of best”
Are you serious Sam????????? One can consider good “Umbrella” (which is sounding dated already), Diamonds and Stay. And that´s about it. The rest gets old really fast, faster than the way she releases albums. I´ve been listening Alicia Keys albums until “The element of Freedom” for a couple of days cos I wasn´t too much into her in the past. And damn, that´s what I call timeless and good. She has to be the best artist from the 00´s decade, seriously.
At least you got it right when you say she has nothing to do with her music 🙂
Your always so pressed when it comes to Rihanna. You can’t stand when anyone praises her i actually like Mariah but her fans come off just as insecure & bitter as she does.
“Unfaithful, Umbrella, Rude Boy, Only Girl in the World, What’s My Name, We Found Love, Diamonds & Stay” are ALL classic Rihanna songs, in my honest opinion.
The rest: NO.
You truly do not forget hit songs, no matter how fast they may have played out. I heard basic ass “Lean Wit It Rock Wit It” on the radio the other day, and I got hyped as if it were 2005 all over again. Rihanna’s older songs are still in rotation on radio stations and in the clubs. You only like 80’s music anyway so you’re biased. 🙄
chile not “lean wit it rock with it”.
if its not something from the stone age then you wouldn’t like it.
We all know you hate on Rihanna no matter what she does, what’s new.
All Mariahs music sounds dated your point is?
John If you don’t mind me asking how old are you?
Damn these biches are pressed, always the same arguments. How do I only like songs from the past? How many times have I said on here how much I like Florence, Alicia, Miguel, Lana, Gaga, etc, etc?
It´s not my fault true greats are superior artists than some of your faves and it´s not my fault that Rihanna is talentless. Get over it. The sooner the better.
Mariah fans are always mad why you so bothered by younger artists you dont see janet madonna or celine stans all over a Rihanna Nicki or Beyonce post because they dont give a f*** Mariah fans are very old insecure & bitter of other females. smh yall wonder why Mariah gets dragged by almost every fan base
Who are you refering to??? Cos I´m a Mariah fan, as much as I´m a Celine, Whitney or Madonna (almost) fan. So your retarded argument is not true, as usual
She always Perform her Slow Songs ” Diamonds, stay, unfaithful, etc..” Better , what else is new @sam ?
4.5/5
She used to be much better than that back in RR days.
RR era was magic. Her most underrated era. The music, the performances, the hair, the fashion. *foams At the mouth* 🙂
I agree with @Navy during her RR era. .we got the RAW–EDGY Rihanna and that’s the one I think I truly luv among all her stages. That was when you got raw emotion from her. That pain was beautiful.
Sam is right about Rihannas music she cant sing but she has some of the best/diverse pop music of the past couple of years Songs like Diamonds,Whats My Name, Rude Boy,Umbrella,We Found Love, Stay , & Love The Way You Lie will never be forgotten
I must say she sounds ok. The question is why can’t she do this all the time?
Shout out to people who actually give credit to Rihanna when its due… She slays her ballads point blank period.
She did well. For such a vocally simplistic song I wouldn’t expect anything less.
LOUD 3.400.000
TEENAGE DREAM 11.000.000
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAH
LMAO, the delusion.
Mosuic of The Sun 1.6 million
Katy Hudson – 1000
Hahahahaha.
Music*
And Teenage Dream has yet to sell 6 million like Loud did. It has 8 singles and still failed to outsell it.
Loud has sold about 6.5 million, and TD didn’t sell no damn 11 million. What the heeeeellll are you talking about?! LOL
loud sold 5 million
No boo, it’s sales were at 5.9 million in 2011. It’s well over 6 now, and still selling….
LOL
lol at this idiot saying TD sold more than Loud. People just reaching for numbers with no research!
Who gave her a record deal? They need to be shot…..execution style
Jay Z 🙂
@QueenBarb
Uhmm I’m 16 what is your point boo????
Stick to sucking that plastic p**** your faves has and STFU before I drag the hell out of you.
@Likica
B**** I can’t stand you!!! Maybe we should not stop commenting on the same posts because I can’t stand you. You’re one sick retarded, annoying, selfish b****. Look I can call you whatever I wanna call you, worthless white trash
Likica isn’t on the thread lol
H2O yes I am LOL, just changed my name 😉
Anyway, this person is really obsessed with me since she follows everything I post. I am happy that she showed her true face – racist, jealous, pressed, uneducated. I told you honey, find some hobbies, stop worrying about me and my comments. Don’t talk to me anymore and get a life. The Last Goodbye from me. Kiss :**
I guess if it was Bey, she wouldn’t get a pass watsoever. smh… The nazis sorry navis are very judgemental
@CICI SLAAAAAAYS SHUT THE F*** UP! YOU F****** CIARA-MAN STAN. THAT OVER MUSCULAR BODY BUILDING FLOP ASS H** CAN’T SING FOR S***. THE FACT THAT SHE’S THE SPITTING IMAGE OF FLOYD MAYWEATHER’S OLDEST SON DOESN’T HELP MUCH EITHER H**!
I only thumbed you down because I thought you were saying Ciara Slaays and I was like no need to read more thumbed down.. now I see though that you feel the way I feel
Rihanna Did AMAZE-BALLZ!!!!!
Who the f** cares which songs she didn’t write? TGJ is always missing the point .
My fav Rihanna performances would be when she did disturbia at aol sessions. Love the way you lie pt 2 @ Hackney And Stay/We found love on X-factor
I don’t want a greatest hits album I think its too soon even though she coiluld do it I would prefer for her to re-release Unapologetic and call it Unapologetic:Side effects she can do a simple color change for the cover to highlight Side Effects and extend the era and the tour then take a break
