Another day and another new song from Rihanna. The latest track to surface from her upcoming ‘Loud’ album is the Nicki Minaj-assisted ‘Raining Men’. Check it out below:
As I predicted last week Minaj stole the spotlight from Rihanna. Her flow, lyrics and placement of Caribbean twang worked well over the bumping beat.
Although there is something quite familiar about the production of this track, it is still a winner on most fronts. From an album that has several radio-friendly songs it still manages to stand out as one of the strongest options for a single release.
It looks like Rihanna will be releasing a wave of new singles to radio to milk this record as much as she can just like she did with ‘Rated R’. Indeed, she probably has no choice but to take that route because, like most of her previous LP sales have shown, she is not a strong album seller thus she has to work a lot harder to convince consumers to buy her records.
