For as long as we can remember, the words ‘talentless’ and ‘gimmick’ have been synonymous with the force that is Rihanna.
Labelled an ‘industry puppet’ by some who doubt the power she has over her own music, there are others who feel her success is overshadowed by an alleged lack of vocal skill, and what some might call- ‘shoddy’ performance levels.
So, taking into account her countless #1 singles, sell out tours and ever engaging videos,we ask:
Do you think Rihanna is underrated?
Weigh in below…

She’s The Queen.
U so obsessed with her.
U probably need therapy with a psychiatrist.
I’m just sayin’…
Yes.
Dancing-wise, shes not one of the best but her videos, her vocals and style is the shiiiiiiiiit.
Videos like russian, disturbia etc..
Vocally, her voice is there and itrs strong and has style.
if madonna and janet can be legends with montone lipsynching and whisper vocals…so can rihanna with hers.
she has flair and thats what makes her her and someone who might aound better will always be boring.
TGJ can’t go a day without posting something about rihanna. does she keep the money coming in for you or what?
OF COURSE SHE IS UNDERRATED ESPECIALLY ON SITES LIKE THIS, A HATE SITE FOR HER. SHE MAKES NEARLY EVERY SONG SHE PUTS HER NAME ON A HIT. WHY IS THAT? IT’S BECAUSE PEOPLE LIKE HER, PEOPLE LIKE HER VOICE, PEOPLE LIKE WHAT SHE IS ABOUT. 11 US #1’s in 6/7 years is A BLOODY ACHIEVEMENT! SHE IS VERSATILE MORE SO THAN THE LIKES OF BEYONCE ETC. SHE CAN SING ANYTHING . ANYTHING RANGING FROM CARRIBEAN LIKE MUSIC TO STRAIGHT POP. SHE IS BY FAR THE ONLY FEMALE ARTIST CURRENTLY WHO CAN DO ALL GENRES. THAT COMMANDS RESPECT.
Does she write her songs ?
Does she produce something ?
Are her live performances acceptable ?
So, is she a real artist ? NO.
She’s overrated.
dude get off rihanna, you’re like sandra rose
Is this a pointless post orrrrrrrrr.
OMG REALLY, REALLLLY SAM. OR TO SLEEP AND TRY NOT TO DREAM ABOUT RIHANNA.
F***** IDIOT.
Yessssssssssssss and you know it “Grape” come on, less take for
instance her album “Loud” take what it sold, the singles that went #1
and her sales all the way around and the GRAMMY did not give her
Squat, but yet she out sold and out performed many with that one album.
She out sold Chris, West and Jay-z and they all got Grammys for their
Efforts so what is it many says she can’t Dance well neither can West
or Jay for that matter. So just what is it that make the Grammy;s treat her
like that. One thing is for real about Rihanna is that she give it all she have
got and she herself has never ever tried to appear Little Ms Perfect Like
many tries to be Yet she is HATED More than any other artist in the industry
to me and many yet she does not let all of the VICIOUS SMACK GET HER DOWN
NOT EVEN FROM YOU “GRAPE”….
Neveeeeer knew she was rated…..I solely believe she is TALENTLESS….when she wore boy jeans and half shirts she was barely noticed…she is only “popular” bc her hooks are catchy, BUT thats only bc theyre repetitive….saying the sammmme thing over and overr. Also, her audience has changed due to the ppl like the rave/techno genre and ACTUALLY BUY MUSIC…she’d be nowhere if it werent for that…:D and if anybody tries to STAN kill yo self first spare the embarrassment!!!
I’ve came to respect Rihanna more and more over the years. Do I respect, tolorate and like her music? Yes. Do I think she’s a real artist? No. But none of the leading ladies, accept for Adele and some other newcommers, are. Is she underrated? No. She’s just been hated on for no reason.
I Read a interesting article about how Controversial her “WFL”
Video was of course we all know about her stripping down in the Farmer’s
field in Ireland but with that being said she is Young and doing nothing more
than many women her age who are trying to find themselves. Only with her she
just happens to be blessed to be Rich & Famous and in Entertainment. Other
young women her age many of them are in school, married and have children.
So i’m guessing the Grape Drink isn’t getting the viewers that they want so they are now reverting to a gossip blog style articles now. Is this a music blog site or Sandra Rose, how about ya’ll act like professionals and stop with your agendas.
Rihanna is no less talented than Katy Perry or Kesha but i don’t see ya’ll obsession over them. Stop the crab in a barrel mentality Jigaboos!
Underated? Definetly not! For someone who might not have the greatest vocal ability or stage presence, she is a universal success. However what gives her ths success is her raw edginness, versatility in terms of style and genre. I think thats her biggest asset and she knows it. I would say in some cases she might be overrated but she delivers great hits. We live in an age where talent is not even relevant anymore so we really can’t blame her.
I swear you do the most for Rihanna and Kim. For someone who doesn’t like them you post a hell of lot on them. Rihanna isn’t underrated she just isn’t given the respect she is due. She’s not one if those over night stars. She fought her way to her spot and no one can take that from her. She is a queen in the making for her lane.
she’s underrated. Look at the odds . she’s from a tiny Caribbean island with no experience in music. never embrace by black America. If she was an American she would get more respect. it took her almost 4 yrs and 5 number 1’s to get on BET awards. with her accomplishment ,she never been on Ebony, essence or Jet never put her on the cover. Just imagine that. If Britney can be respected i think rihanna is underrated
Her music Video’s she seems to always make them come alive
with the way she seem to step right off into it just like a Mini Movie.
I feel that it is a very telling summary of where she has been going
in her Videos and by the large number of people from all over the
Globe paying Homage to Rihanna & Her arts & Crafts. And if her
not being a haevy dancer it don’t seem to take a toll on her Views
on Youtube because with over a Billions of views she is showing
no signs of slowing down any time soon.
She’s the most versatile artist in the last 10 yrs. she’s comfortable in any genre of music she has hit in every genre she touch . how many artist can say that. she;s not on a track mine artist
I along with countless others love how she bought things in
relationships alive in “WFL” she showed how drugs, alcohol
violent is alive and well in many different relationships and this
was really great and deep and as Raw as Raw could get.
How can someone be underrated when her success in solely based on her ”personnality & swag”? are u serious?
Who is tthis new TGJ staff member?
Her own fans say she is “here” because she has personnality,swag,….just to deny the fact that she is here because JAY,ROC NATION AND DEF JAM wanted her to be there.That’s alot of force on her side,no one cant f*** with ppl with big money.
We can ask the same question about Taylor swift,Justin bieber,Kim kardashian etc…??
LMs never fail to amaze me with their delusions. Rihanna is over rated and GaGa isnt?
On to the post, do I think Rihanna is underrated? Hell no. Rihanna is on top of the world currently no matter how you slice. Her singles sell, her tours sell, and her albums sell. She is a style/fashion icon to many young adults. And despite what some say, Rihanna HAS talent. She can sing live without playback or back up singers. If she worked on it, Rihanna could be a belter. She was the executive producer on the Rated R album, where she co-wrote every song, and she is involved with the creative ideas in her videos. She is an artist
she is overrated..
She is the best!! Has the best character. Of all the singers. RIHANNA- QUEEN OF MUSIC!
AND STFU………
To be honst Rihanna is the most versitile artist since Madonna. The only one as versitle as Rih is Christina Aguilera. I love Xtina, but she didnt master dance pop like Rihanna has. Every new sound that hits pop Rihanna has adapted to and prospered from it.
What a stupid question, this b**** is Too Overrated.
This gotta be a Joke
underrated? if anything shes overrated. average singer.
More like overrated! The talentless b**** releases an album every year!!!! I’m shocked at how many people think she can sing because they hear her screaming on Only Girl in the World, California King Bed, Where Have You Been and Complicated LOL! Ya’ll need to go back to school!
Rihanna is a perfect example of an ‘underdog,’ Started humble yet focused, and is now a self accomplished international superstar! Ppl trash her, expect the least from her yadayada. But despite the negative crap she still is a threat to her peers! Let’s face it she wins without trying!! SWALLOW!
How can you even think that someone who has had, what, 10, 11 number one songs is ‘underrated’? I love Rihanna, but she is overrated. Especially in the UK!
As an artist Ive always seen Rihanna like Britney with more creative power and vocal ability. She’s not the best but she’s certainly not the worse(Britney).
I think Rihanna is a little under rated. The bomb to her career took awhile to blow up compared to Katy, Lady Gaga, and Ke$ha who were over night successes. She came from a little island to being the Carribean Beyonce to being the biggest international pop in music today. She keeps pushing out albums and singles and people keep buying them. Whether most like it or not, the world has a unquenchable thirst for Rihanna.
yea i do think that people underrate her… but yet again the people that do that is the main people going buy and music and going to those sold out shows and waiting for the music video that comes out. they are what we #undercoverfans. diss all through out the day but at night time jams to her music. but look whoask that question thatgrapejuice.com the website that always have something to say about Rihanna but when you go on their website every other story is about Miss Rihanna <3 #thatisall
I like rihanna and all but please do not compare her to GAGA..
now I dont listen to rihanna for her voice, I already have many favs that can blow all the basic b****** out there…
rihanna makes great music, her voice is versatile, meaning, she can go from, rock, to r&b, to dance, to reggae, to pop, to county..just like that…she has has the voice for it..
many people in the industry can only sing one/two type of genre,,r&b and pop..
Only on this site coz she’s very loved everywhere.
Rihanna has a true life rags to riches story to tell and it
will be true. Have she gotten a fair shake, no she has not
i just wonder what would her career have been like if she
was lazy. And many might not have noticed it but she does
not make a big to do about now getting awards are being
talked down. She just seems to go with the flow and even
though she has shown her pure dee ass on twitter from time
to time but most of the time she’s showing her ass in her
Videos, photo shoots are on stage and ads and endorsements.
She has truly tapped into her inner strengths and that takes years
to reach. Notice how she always give the other ladies their Props
and she does it with Gusto, Style and Class. And every one seem
to love working with her.
Rihanna don”t give a f*ck about THATGRAPEJUICE, but obviously you do!
Hell no, the b**** is toooooo overrated.
She comes from a very small island and became an international superstar and that’s have merit.
and rihanna is a bad bish, worlwide bad bish…
i’m curious, if rihanna was controlled by her label, how the f*** would they let her cuss people out on twitter….?
or let her make music with the MONSTER that is chris brown…
it kills you guys to see a chick like rihanna winning, without doing s*** versus ur fav, doing everything but making a s** tape to stay relevant..
hello my fellow goat followers…according to the beyonce stan..if ur a rihanna fan ur a goat follower
lax, onyx….
The two women that can dabble in different genres of music, and have succes in doing so are: Rihanna and Toni Braxton…………………….!!
@RATEDxxx
Hello honey
Underrated? Now thats a first lol.
When you think about it there isn’t another artist that i know of
from back in the day who would even attempt to do a song &
video like many of her’s because they will not want to take
a chance on people talking bad about them. People are often
time so fickle and need to know that just because she acts a
certain way in a music video that does not make it true to her real
life situation. You see movie stars acting all kinds of crazy in many
of their movies but people don’t go around saying they act like that
in their real lives.
Rihanna get callem more Negative names than many of the P*** Stars
who do bed hopping for a living. They get called better names than Rihanna does. Many have tried to Hook her up with any of the men that she have came in contact with and it is shameful and so silly. People know better and that is why
there is Gossip and Rumor control. These artist already know that people are going to spread lies and truths on them and if they are weak minded people they will not last in the Entertainment Industry at all.
Rihanna kno9w that she isn’t the highest paid artist but she is happy just being in the game and doing what she has always wanted to do and getting paid for doing it. She is further along then many in music because she have been singing grown Folks songs since day one and it has gotten even more raw and s*** but
hey who’s mad? Many say she is driving the youth to the gutters well they must be weak to want to be rich and famous and traveling the world doing what you love all the while getting paid milllions and millions for looking great and Entertaining the Masses. These children need to stay in their books and never ever have those dreams of becoming Rich and Famous.
Yes she is underrated. People critique her vocals yet she can sing better than Madonna, Janet, Britney……
People criticise her dancing but since when was it a requirement that female artists had to dance?
I agree there are more talented female artists out there, but very few, have better songs than Rihanna.
lmaooooooo at this question everyfucking day here at TGJ u aswer this stupid question…………..SHE S HIGHLY OVERRATED !!!!!!!!!!! and its just a shame for the industry becoz #1 single or publicity or whatever else aren t significant of TALENT does she have among all those #1 s*** one which will be remembered 10 years laters???? and don t even come with UMBRELLA …………my pobrlem with riri is that she has tha ability to be even bigger than now she s just to lazy ………..does she has only one perf on stage than can be considered as great ??????epic ?????? nope for me a true artist is on stage case point ag : beyonce janet madonna lady gaga mariah carey withney old brit brit alicia keys>>>>>>>>

Underrated ? She is OVERrated
*waits for Bey’Knight and RichandBlack11 to start hating*
*waits for Mobwife to post delusional comments that make no sense to sane people*
@RATEDXXX ,,,,I heard that but the truth is i would rather be
following Goat doo doo than Human!
shes okay but relies more on controversy than talent.
her success is where it’s supposed to be. period.
I Love how she seem to clear those barrel
that is placed befor her and she has got
to be the S***’s because as every one know
Adele was listed as #1 for 1011 and Rihanna
was #2. Now we all know that Adele mopped
the floor and renamed the game but through
all of that Rihanna held her own. And she is
always mentioned in the same sentence as Beyonce
now that speaks volumes as to where she has came
from and where she is headed.
Look at the people who complains the most about her.
Which artist is their main center piece, once you see that
then consider the Source.
THE ONLY PLACE SHE IS UNDERATED IS AT THIS SH*T SITE!! REAL CRITICS PRAISE HER VOICE AND ALBUMS!!! U R JUST A LOSSER AND A HATER!!
@Aynon Sit your Basic Ass down some place in the Back!
what was the point of this again? anyways rihanna is NOT underrated nor overrated. she is fine. yes rihanna isnt the best the LIVE singer out there, but she’s a hardworker! and i admire her for that! she keeps b****** like samantha talking about her 24/7. and to call rihanna talentless is a matter of opinion.
Rihanna know very well that when you have Basic
people always saying u can’t that always make you
work even harder to make them look stupid.
Is TGJ thirsty and desperate for hits? YES
*Blinks*
Success is no longer based just on voice along, there are
many other things that go into making you the total package.
With Rihanna she have got that “It Factor” On Lock. Even though
many calls her big headed and Ugly she know how to take the
Lemons and make lemon tea.
@WHUT,,,,One of my Favorite and most liked
Navy Officer of them all! Love reading you ….WHUT!
also rihanna wasnt an overnight success like gaga or justin bieber. she rose her way to where she is at now, an international pop star making millions. samantha is just bitter and cant give credit due when its due!
We need Mari Rip, Truth Teller, JJ, Yellow and other’s to Chime in
to make it USDA INSPECTED, Smiles! The people who are always trying
to keep putting her down are the one’s who are taking pain Killer not Other’s.
Overrated
she’s overrated
Talent is like Beauty “RELATIVE”, is all in the eyes of the taste of the person. What some people think something is ugly to me could be beautiful and vice-versa. Some people considered Asian and Black People ugly, some people think high notes are horrible, some think if you have it, you could sing, some people call shake your B*** DANCE, some not. RELATIVE all is RELATIVE.
When you think of Rihanna, you don’t think underrated. I think she gets back exactly what she puts into her music (in everyway it has a direct effect on everything – from her reputation to her #1’s). Rihanna has a strong backing and she’s a hit driven artists, that follows the current trends. If ‘Dance’ is what’s currently ‘the sound’ , she goes for it. In the early stages of her career she didn’t have everything thrown at her feet (like Gaga, Britney) and at this stage she currently doesn’t work as hard as some other talented artists. To sum it up, the type of success she has is what she seems to be shooting for.

Underrated singer: doesn’t mean you’re not good.
Kelly Rowland overshadowed by an overrated friend singer.
OK SAM THIS IS GETTING CRAZY LEAVE HER ALONE, DAMN LET THE GIRL BE, SHE MIGHT NOT HAVE THE BEST SOUND OR MOVES BUT SHE HOLDS HER OWN…GEEESSSHHHHHHH….SAM I THINK YOU ARE A STAN OF HERS
“hit driven”?! that sums it @royalkev. this what the puppet is. the music is is trendy and popular. she performs the sh*t pretty good for that. but she – wrong… the label – deserves mediocre support for the industrial flavor outta the shaker.
the b**** is OVERrated
1-800-RIRI-HITS!
She has gone up aganist stiff competition susan boyle,
adele, alicia, beyonce gaga, britney and many others
she’s not giving a care about competition and she never
shy away, win lose or draw. I admire her get up and make
things happen attitude.
RIHANNA IS SLAYING BEYONCE AND THE GAY H** A***
@BEY STANS beyonce could never get 11 number ones in 7 yrs why?? her pop songs sucks gay boy p**** ass/c****
TGJ IS F****** HYPOCRITICAL. HOW CAN YOU CONSTANTLY BASH RIHANNA WHEN SHE MAKES YOUR SITE, LITERALLY EVERYDAY. HOW CAN SHE BE UNDERRATED WHEN HER COUNTLESS ALBUMS AND SINGLES SAY OTHERWISE. IF SHE WAS UNDERRATED SHE WOULDN’T BE ON THIS F****** SITE SO MUCH. YOU EITHER LOVE HER OR HATE HER. MAKE UP YOUR F****** MIND SAM.
She’s exactly where she should be…a singles pop star. Madonna and Janet weren’t technically great singers but they’re great artists with creative control, major musical input and defined their own styles, production and image make-overs. Rihanna works with who the record company wants her to work with and records songs written by other people. Some of the stans on this board think everyone needs to be a big belter like Mariah or Beyonce when Madonna and Janet are superior artists in my opinion bc they not only sing but captavate your attention with their videos and live performances as well as major style changes. Rihanna is successful and I like her music but in my opinion she’s more Britney Spears than anything remotely close to Janet Jackson let alone Madonna.
is underrated mya ciara fantasia jazmine sullivan sylenna johnson is underrated india arie underrated jill scott KERI HILSON and many other people tha can sing better than these flops . algebra blessett underrated tank underrated brandy and monica underrated why donr these singers have 16 grammys like beyonce or 5 grammys like rihanna HOW THE F*** RIHANNA UNDERRATED SHE IS ON TOP MAYBE SAM MEANT OVERRATED
OVERRATED AND UNDERRATED HAVE TWO DIFF MEANINGS .RIHANNA IS NOT UNDERRATED SHE HAS BROKEN RECORDS THAT BEYONCE HASNT BROKE YET SHE MAKES BETTER POP THAN BEYONCE AND SHE HAS BETTER SONGS ALSO .RIHANNA 11 NUMBER ONES BEYONCE 4 NUMBER ONES DO THE MATH
IN 2014 BEYONCE WILL HAVE OVER 2 MILLION COPYCAT VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE AND RIHANNA WILL HAVE OVER 50 NUMBER ONES.
underrated???????!! Reallllllly?!! Hahaha…………………………….!
No Overrated!
Janelle Monae is UNDERRATED!!!
why are yall puttin bey in this rihanna aint slayin nothin over bey and never will so keep bey out of this ked stuff bey dont even care about what yall say anyway
DEAD @ someone bringing beyonce into this. beyonce is a living legend.. something rihanna has yet to even be considered. rihanna is very OVER-RATED. her talent doesnt parallel her success. someone brought janet and madonna into this to try and prove that artists with average voices can be legends but u have to put in fact that janet was the best dancer of her time. madonna was an innovator not a puppet. rihanna cant dance, she cant sing, and her versatility is a ploy from the label. she has yet to do anything that will go down in history besides break some itunes records that adele has broken by now.
thats a dam lie bey does not have no copycat videos out there at all sorry before you talk please do the research all her songs are different so dont hate and riri bey are friends now what
beyonce wish she could do what rihanna do on the charts 2011 was beyonces downfall bey stans are beys downfall always hating on artist with more talent.
It Feels Reductive.
beyonces sales decline while rihannas rise just admit that rihanna ended beyonces career in 2011
i agree with chloe all the way thank you you said it all
beyonces sales decline while rihannas rise just admit that rihanna ended beyonces career in 2011 name 5 number ones off of beyonces 4 on hot 100 bilboard charts sorry beyonce doesn’t have any just a number 1 album only because shes the biggest gimmick in music
HA!!! the salvationarmy acts like rihanna has never been accused of plagarism. lets not act like she didnt steal the whole concept for “you da one”…… they are quick to bring up #1 singles yet they dont wanna talk about how rihanna has YET to get a #1 album and it took 5 albums to outsell beyonces 3! thats a damn shame… but they wanna brag… HA!
i can name about 6 copycat videos from beyonce this era
this era rihanna mopped the floor with beyonces $2000 lacefront.
beyonce sales are fine and goig up every day do your reseach her ablum 4 and live at roseland is salein everyday
4 is a crap of s*** all that screaming and growling nobody but teens buying that b*******
didnt rihanna say she was gonna stop changing her hair color because she didnt wanna be labeled as a gimmick? the b**** is already on her 3rd color in this album. its too late rihanna the industry already has labeled u as a gimmick. she will NEVER be taken serious as a real artist and a performer. and the rihanna navy wanna talk about sales increasing? TTT has yet to outsale 4 in the u.s. rihanna hasnt even topped the i am tour gross yet. this b**** is PLAYED
it took bey 8 months to sell i million records in the united states she has lost so many fans with every album beyonces sales decrease what a shame people are starting to see her for who she is a liar and a copycat highly unoriginal lacks emotion in songs just screaming yelling notes sounding like a cat in heat or a p** in heat either or
@2_real u r so right. how is it that rihanna had 10 shows at the o2 arena yet she STILL didnt top the i am tour. it proves that no one takes her serious as a performer. and im not even gonna get on her singles. its nothing but a bunch of s*** teens that look up to her that buys the singles. she has 6 albums under her belt and she cant even scrap together a measly 200k for 1st week sales. smh
rihanna beyonce gaga katy madonna nicki mia all gimmicks jay z a gimmick too lil wayne joined illuminati and nicki did too all sellouts that did anythin 4 fame sold their souls they goin straight to lucifer .i dont know how beyonce sleeps at night with all them baphomets illuminati symbols in her videos
rihanna and adele still on top and beyonce is at the bottom scrapping for a hit in the top ten hot 100 damn beyonce is losing right now i love this s*** rihanna takeover bey stans gotta be burning inside.
underrated? are u kidding me? how can someone who can barely perform their own songs live be underrated? how can someone who has yet to write a #1 hit be underrated? rihanna has no say in her career besides the obvious hair color changes. why do u think shes NEVER on forbes? she has ZERO royalties to her singles. she doesnt pay for her videos. what does she do? if u wanna be honest shes actually an insult to REAL artist out here who are involved in every aspect of their career
it kills the salvationarmy that beyonce can take a maternity leave and still make more money than rihanna in a year. rihanna has #1 singles yet her money STILL cant parallel beyonce’s. “i bet it sucks to be you right now”
rihanna is the biggest pop star alive today! and the most popular living singer today. she is hated on, and ppl seem to under estimate her, the but aint no body touching this b****
LMAO. this people are fan even of Beyonce parents so embarrassed for you.
more like overrated
LOLz uh yeah… because it’s a bad thing when a SINGER is not recognized for their vocals….
*blank stare*
Yes just like 10 others in 2012 RIP KING MJ
what u on about rihanna has the most recognizable on radio today, also when whip my hair and right here plus a few others came out, ppl where going on about how they were rihanna songs, how is that if according to most of you she doesnt have a sound
beyonce fans are so jealous of keri hilson and rihanna
I Love her beautiful accent
LMFAOOOO
An artist who doesn’t write, can’t sing well, cant dance that good, and doesn’t perform that well…..but has manage to break records and sell millions…..she is FAR FROM UNDERRATED…..
She’s where she’s suppose to be with the music industry of today….
Hating on Rihanna is a full time job with no paid Benefits.
She has to be a strong Ass woman to be able to put up with the day to day B/s
No matter how the Media, Haters, Nay Sayers & Doubters
tries their hand at bashing the hell out of her she always
spring right back Swinging as hard as ever.
She don’t have to write there have been many greats
who never ever wrote a single line and they still made
it in spite of that. There have been many singers who
don’t dance, case n* Point Adele.
NUMBERS DONT LIE

beyonces sales decline while rihannas rise just admit that rihanna ended beyonces career in 2011
________________________________________________________
IASF vs. Loud …… yeah Bey won that one.
And we don’t know the outcome of 4 and TTT….but again, I wouldn’t be quick to talk s***.
How can Rihanna end someone’s career and she hadn’t achieved half of what Bey has…..and doesn’t get the praise or respect. GTFOH
She have made a lot of His-t-rih that many others who
came before her have never been able to do. Like she
have got 6 #1’s in 6 consecutive years like Elvis before her, UK!!!!!!
It really don’t matter that her many accomplishments are not as big as others
just give her some more thime on the clock and if you comoare her to many her same age she has surpassed so many, do i need to name about 6?
For the record, I think Rihanna is pretty dope.
And I know she’s not going anywhere any time soon. I also imagine that after the release of Where Have You Been ( f***** hate that song) she will probably be topping every chart.
So much respect to Riri…. but girl is far from underrated. I wont say she’s overrated, I think she’s where she’s suppose to be.
Compare her to many her age and see how she fairs.
If she keep learning and expanding her horizon
the sky is the limits. The field is wide open to all
of those who chooses to play on it and they can achieve
well beyond their wildest dreams. REMEMBER that money don’t
care who owns it, or how much of it you can own (money) or earn.
If others have had a chance to make it a go in the industry
then why not her? She have got the same economical and
social Justice system working for her as we all have got.
Don’t hate the player hate the Game.
They Mad at RIHANNA game
All black on, blacked out shades
I see you aiming at my pedastal
besides the grammy thing beyonce hasnt achieved much either, yes her pay check is huge but she hasnt really paved the way in her field at all, so what do you mean rihanna hasnt achieved what bey has, far as i can tell rihanna has set and broken more records, and set more trends. and is just as famous as bey if not more. in fact for the 2010-2012 period rihanna has been more popular than bey
only artists you can use to bring rihanna down are bey, gaga, and adele. the first two are older than her, and the other is a the current musical sensation also while the first two are decreasing in popularity or seem to be, and the last seems to be a phase, rihanna keeps growing. b**** selling 2.5mil albums of an promoted album. that by name only

“besides the grammy thing beyonce hasnt achieved much either, yes her pay check is huge but she hasnt really paved the way in her field at all”
@Blue
No, that’s not true. I think Bey made it a lot easier for Rihanna to break through. Ri came into the game with a bey-ish look. I think the reason why you don’t see more entertainers emulating Beyonce is because it’s very difficult to do.
quote one line i wrote that is a lie
Just no.
actually the reason you dont see more entertainers emulating bey is cause you are called a copycat and dont get a chance. rihanna had a look almost like bey’s and not quite as she was all tomboyish and Caribbean, with a dance hall rnb sound, not like bey’s but cause she was a light skinned black girl with brown hair that did rnb she was a bey wannabe

Hell! Not, difficult my ass, you see a lots girls emulating Madonna so why would be hard emulate Beyonce, you B fans put her on a pedestal like she was Whitney or Michael PLEASE.

Yeah, she had a look like Bey’s and that was no accident. Kind of like Coke and Pepsi or Backstreet Boys and NSYNC. Often times if you like one, then there’s a strong possibility that you’ll like the other because it appears similar

fail to see how i did that. its true, those are the artists out right now that ppl use to try and bring rihanna down.
Yes she is underrated. She works hard and puts out pop hits consistently. To come from the islands and represent the way she does through the highs and lows of the industry is worth noting and respecting.
@mari
rihanna looked nothing like bey during her music of the sun era, and it was only towards the end of a girl like me that you could compare the two’s wardrobe but after gggb rihanna looked nothing like her. rihanna never was a bey wannabe, thats what ppl thought, but in truth they had no similarities at all. not their style or music genre
Rihanna is where she will be nothing more nothing less, can’t knock her grind….and for the DAMN RECORD MOST OF BEYONCE FANS F**** WITH RIHANNA JUST NOT SOME OF HER DUMB FANS…..SHE COOL BY ME BUT I MUST SAY SHE DOESN’T WOW ME LIKE MY BEY BUT SHE DOES HOLD HER OWN
“Hell! Not, difficult my ass, you see a lots girls emulating Madonna so why would be hard emulate Beyonce, you B fans put her on a pedestal like she was Whitney or Michael PLEASE.”
@Onyx
Well Madonna isn’t exactly known for her vocal prowess. Bey is a better singer than she is., like way better. Madonna is like Britney. You know, it’s not about the vocals, so much as it is about the performance and the concept. I think it would be a lot easier to be a Madonna impersonator than a Beyonce impersonator. I think people would expect you to sing really really well, if you were impersonating Bey.
THis site is SOOOOOO shady hahahaha
Obviously RIhanna is taking a more talented girl’s spot.

ppl going on about how rihanna is not respected, mention one industry big name questioned about rihanna only to bad mouth her. all i have read is praise and love. and noted big names have praised her as a great talent. critics love her. gggb was named they best pop album that year by music critics, so was rated r, and loud and ttt some even went as far as to compare its production to 21.
@Mari (RIP Dwayne McDuffie + Amy Winehouse +Whitney Houston
I can’t believe this come from a person who loves whitney like you, yes she has a decent voice just like Madonna, Rihanna, Gaga ect.. but are you really impressed by her voice after listen Whitne, Celine, Mariah hell even Christina.
DEAD @ someone saying the only thing bey has achieved is grammys. and what has rihanna acheived that is untouchable? NO ONE can take away the fact that beyonce made grammy history. adele only matched beys record NO FEMALE has beat it. adele has already broken rihannas itunes record so what else is there to break? rihanna has yet to reach beys tour gross revenue which beyonce holds the title for the black female with the highest tour gross in 11 years. NOTHING rihanna has done cant be broken. Beyonce MAKES HISTORY while rihanna breaks records. theirs no comparison

critics love rihanna? ARE U KIDDING ME? there isnt a critic alive that didnt rip TTT album. not to mention “cake” was also ripped apart by the critics. yes people in the industry love rihanna for her personality and her catchy songs but NO ONE in the industry respects her artistry. putting out album after album with NO inspiration doesnt sit well with critics who look for REAL music.like billboard said “how does one garner 50 billion views on youtube, by merely releasing 50 billion videos. …..SHADE!

@Onyx
There are a lot of reasons why i prefer Rihanna to Beyonce, but at the same time I have no problem acknowledging that Beyonce is a better singer and dancer than Rihanna. I used to think that X-tina was the best vocalist of our generation, but then I saw this youtube clip comparing Bey and X-tina, and it got me thinking. I don’t see why Bey couldn’t have held her own with Whitney in her prime. You really think Bey couldn’t have covered “My Heart Will Go On” or “Vision of Love” or done justice to “I Will always love you?” Beyonce really hasn’t had a great, iconic power ballad, but that may have more to do with the trends in music rather than Beyonce’s vocal prowess.
@CHLOE Beyonce use to win the no relevant grammy’s . did you see they since change up the grammy’s and remove those no relevant rnb categories she did not get much nominations this time round while rihanna got nominated for album of the year.
chloe
PREACH PREACH AND THATS THE TRUTH NO HATE OR SHADE JUST TRUTH
Rihanna is the anti beyonce people can relate to her . look at her interview on that British show last week. she was just so relax and fee spirited she answers any question. beyonce would have her handlers set rules on what that can be ask or not ask.
@xedos relevant grammys? song of the year,pop vocalist, female vocalist,r&b vocals, what category did they remove? 4 was snubbed by the grammys this year do to the lack of radio/billboard popularity with the singles. i.e rihannas LOUD album being nominated. that was STRICTLY based on popularity. even though 4 didnt get nominated by the grammys it was CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED which was what bey was aiming for this go round.
who ripped ttt? lol. most of the reviews for that album were positive. and praising. and birtday cake was an interlude out of the other 10 full tracks, also it was a fan fav, mean if it gets buying ttt then it has don’t its job, have you seen were that interlude is currently sitting on itunes right now?
everything you have mentioned that bey has achieved can be broken too, it just hasn’t been yet(all of Rhianna’s records still stand to i may add).
and please bey like rih has set or broken a record not made history.
@Mari
No i don’t think so, Witney has the power of make you feel sad even when she sang a happy song, it’s not about High Notes is about the way you sing a song, trust me Celine and Mariah has agreat voice but to me doesn’t touch Whitney’s voice only because she got that thing, her voive was so emotional, so melancholic, Beyonce sometimes seems to be singing or screaming in the chorus of the Church.
Oh Sam, you’ll get those hits one way or another won’t you and Rihanna DEFINITELY gets you hits.
We usually reserve the title of “underrated” for people who are extraordinarily talented yet are not commercially successful i.e. Rachell Ferrell.
Rihanna is far from being underrated. The true question is, in terms of her critics, given her limited talent weighed against her accomplishments, is she OVERRATED?
I personally like Rihanna. She’s an interesting pop artist. Nothing more, nothing less.
@xedos rihanna IS the anti beyonce. beyonce cares too much about her brand to be free spirited. look at micheal jackson. he was so private and didnt associate with everyone which preserved the MYSTERY around his personal life. why do u think the world is so infatuated with beyonces personal life? its because she knows what to keep private. thats why most of the industry puts her on a pedestal unlike rihanna, who the industry considers their “homegirl”
so bey was not aiming to sell a single copy of 4 when she released it, just that the critics loved it? guess thats why she released run the world as the lead single
@chloe and that is why the industry loves rihanna and stares at beyonce
No i don’t think so, Witney has the power of make you feel sad even when she sang a happy song, it’s not about High Notes is about the way you sing a song, trust me Celine and Mariah has agreat voice but to me doesn’t touch Whitney’s voice only because she got that thing, her voive was so emotional, so melancholic, Beyonce sometimes seems to be singing or screaming in the chorus of the Church.

@Onyx
Ok, I see you. Me personally, I always thought that the reason why many people don’t think of Bey as being in that elite group of singers, Mimi, Nippy, Celine is because Beyonce’s best known songs CIL and SL are booty shake songs, and those type of pop songs don’t get you respect.
Nice convo though. Something to think about . . .I’m out.

beyonce MADE HISTORY being the first female to have 6 grammys in one night. she will FOREVER go down in history to be the FIRST to do so. beyonce is also the ONLY artist in history to have a word added to the dictionary based on popularity alone. beyonce is also the FIRST african american women to earn the ascap pop songwriter of the year award. do u get where im going here. if u were the FIRST to do something then u make history therefore NO ONE can take that away from you. i can keep going but i doubt it will resonate with some of you… smh
THERE IS NOTHING BEY HAS ACHIEVED THAT RIHANNA HAS NOT MATCH IN ANOTHER ASPECT!!!1
that said i believe what sam wanted to ask was DOES THE ‘TALENTLESS’ LABEL OVERSHADOW HER CAREER
@blue the industry STARES at beyonce in AWE. they stare at rihanna in a state of confusion. THATS the difference.
@Mari
I don’t think is for that it’s just because she doesn’t have the voice.

Rihanna does help write and produce her music..check the credits(she doesnt steal songwriting credits like Beyonce(tried to STEAL ‘If I Were A Boy but homegirl called her weave slingin ass out and Beyonce then gave credit)……She’s NOT a puppet, if she was a puppet then Chris Brown would NOT be on Bday Cake bcuz Jayz wouldv stoppd her..which he tried but failed…her label advised her not to but we all see how that played out……Rih’s a business woman…that may be hard for you b****** to accept bcuz Rihanna is winning right now and Beyonce is flopping on all fronts of the music world…..get over it abnd stop hating….
@onyx this is not about beyonce either yet the rihanna fans always find a way to bring her into something…smh
first black artist to perform at the cma
the first female solo artist tohave five number one singles in the United Kingdom in consecutive years
first black female to cover both British Vogue & Esquire
first female artist to reach 2 billion vevo views
Rihanna the only female artist in the UK to simultaneously have a number one single and album twice in the same year with a different album and single
Underrated? Are u kidding me? If there were any justice in this world this empty vessel would not have past the reception at Def Jam HQ. She’s the textbook definition of overrated if i ever saw anything like it.
A singer whom u can confidently point your friend to youtube her name, sayin d 1st live performance u click will be vocally on point
Here’s an artist whose notoriety is based off a persona. Her fans will bring dat up 1st b4 they ever brag about her “artistry”
Here’s a pseudo artist who has shown no passion for her craft, rides on d trendy beats for chart success
Here’s an artist that makes deliberate attempt to court controversy but thats wat ppl want. It’s d same reason reality tv shows do well n people were fascinated by Gaga & Madonna, this makes her smart not talented or underrated
@xedos yes u are right sir Rih is d anti-Beyonce
Beyonce can sing, rihanna cant
Beyonce can dance, rihanna cant
Beyonce can perform, rihanna cant
Beyonce avoids controversy, keeps her privates private, rihanna luvs causing controversy n publicising her bizness
Beyonce has a genuine passion for music childhood, rihanna is in it to be a popstar
N yes i saw how “relaxed” rih was in that interview. It would perfect if she cast on bajan version of jersey shore. We dont pay artists to be “relaxed” in interviews or be relatable, we pay for the music. It’s only with calculated gimmicks like rihanna that their fans throw “personality” in the forefront. Beyonce did not sign up to be d perfect interviewee, she signed up to be an entertainer n she does just that. If she’s flawed in dat dept, we can live with that.
And now RIHANNA IS NOT VERSATILE!
In fact d only thing she can pull off is raggae/ dancehall cuz of her heritage. Any m***** can lay vocals on any given beat in d studio n have it pitch-corrected. Dance genre is not even about versatility, its all sbout d beat n even so ur girl ALWAYS ALWAYS FALLS FLAT when it comes to those HIGH NOTES live eg only girl, WFL. Her song with coldplay is dubbed a pop song by critics.
Can rihanna get on stage on do songs by these artists:
Josephine baker
Prince
Tina Turner
Barbra Streisand
Kings of Leon
Whitney Houston
Etta James
Ella Fitzgerald
The Supremes
George Michael
These artists cover a wide spectrum of genres from jazz to rock to traditional rnb. Beyonce has covered them all n done them justice (chk the reviews). So where exactly does tonedeaf fenty get credit for versatility? For being a hook girl?
One last thing: even if Beyonce doesnt exist, it wouldnt make rih seem any more credible as an artist.
@chloe
but you’re here commenting as a Beyonce fan, your point of view will always being as a Beyonce fan nuff.
@teacher how did beyonce try and steal songwriting credits when she blatantly gave the name of the person who wrote the song and BOUGHT the song. u sound as slow as rihanna does trying to sing live. and what makes u think jay z cared if chris brown is on cake? jay has NEVER publicly came out and said he didnt like chris brown. unless u can read minds i suggest u stop making up s***. rihannas a business woman? if that was the case the b**** would be on FORBES . her LOUD tour grossed 90 mill and her slow ass wont even see half of it. yet u think shes not a puppet. her label controls EVERY aspect of her career. beyonce is flopping yet on her year off she makes more than rihanna was on tour. do u see ur fail?
not to mention the many first bajan tos and the billboard firsts….
and please dont go on like what bey puts out is any more meaningful then the music rihanna does. it may be slower but its the same recycled words

@grammy sammy
didnt rihanna perform darling nikki on her last tour?
and didnt she perform a whitney song for jayz when she auditioned for him, and made him sign her a few mins later?
I have no issues with her being a chart queen n all dat but there’s not much else to it than that. From day 1 she was engineered to sell records n she plays d part to a T. There’s a reason why u dont see her prforming at inaugration or oscars or honouring legends at events like BET honours. She’s d equivalent of a walking talking reality tv which is exactly wat kids today love, she’ll remain relevant on d charts as long as that lasts.
Take away the pr, hair/make up, visuals, promo budget, u dont have an artist at the core who can just stand there, do her thing with just a mic and a light!
@chloe i dont see anyone besides her fans calling bey a legend either. b**** bye.
Some people are confusing having no distinct artistic persona/voice with being “versatile”. Just because Rihanna has songs produced with elements from several genres, does not mean that she does “pop” “reggae” R&B” “rock”, etc. like some amazingly versatile artist. She does have creative input in her visuals and stuff, though, which is good.
Rihanna’s skill is having a serviceable voice that can be put on basically any track without overpowering it or detracting focus from the music.
She’s certainly not horrible, especially compared to other manufactured acts, but she is overrated. She’s good at picking a hot track, staying out of the way on the song, and making people interested in her antics. She’s almost like Madonna, but Madonna had a distinct vision that wasn’t limited to changing hair colors and trying to be a rebel. She also had timeless music, most of which Rihanna’s #1s are not.
…and let’s not with the Beyonce comparisons. Not only are they totally different artists, but anyone with sense can see that the only thing worthy of comparing is pop-chart relevance (as opposed to legacy and indusrtry respect/credibility).

@onyx i read because im curious. this post asked a question therefore i read the responses. remember i didnt bring beyonce into this i only defended her.
@take away the same things from bey and you have the same. rihanna and bey bring the same things to their music, they might help out a little with the songwritting but at the end of the day they are just the voice and nothing more.
put both on a stage with just a mic and you will have to beautiful girls holding a mic.
thing is rihanna will be able to charm herself out of that embarrassing situation bey wont

Rihanna being underrated and Beyonce are not even the same subject. so why is Beyonce in here again.
If not for technology Rihanna would have been gone a long time ago. She has been lucky and with some of the responses here I see why. She is not her based on talent which an artist should have but she is here more so for image and beats and the trick of a mic. Put her side by side with an artist that could sing lyrics, know tunes for what they are with no backtracking help and no music and you got what with Rihanna? Nothing but a some what cute girl standing there lookinng stupid unless she starts grabbing her self as usual.. She’s an image who has gotten away with a lot and I hope this is coming to an end for real talent to shine based on talent and not a look. It’s the same argument with her so there is a lot of truth to it, Sam is not the only one. Who Respects Rihanna in the business? NO ONE. They use her but she dont get respect!

also both girls have had big names praise them but that still dont make them legends, they have still more work to do.
As you’ve stated, she’s a private person….ain’t no tellin how many times she’s settled all of her lawsuits out of court…why? because she would be embarassed bcuz she’s tried to steal so many times…like damn b****…u gon get caught unless it’s from sm1 dead(her single ladies video concept…)’inspired ‘ my ass….no1 is accused of the same thing so many times and is not guitly of doing it…..don’t front b**** cause u already know….

We ain’t mad b****….mad is what u were when u saw the b**** wasn’t on that top 40 list……..don’t kill yaself..it’s gon be alright!
Perhaps so, she definitely commands a lot more respect from critics such as you. This chick is versatile AF!!! What other artist has ever gone from singing island/reggae to pop to dance to hip hop to r&b to rock to alternative? Seriously?
It took be awhile to become a fan because frankly I agree, her vocals are not like those of 90s artist….Brandy, Monica, et al, ho (or even Beyonce) however, the girl does have talent. It takes talent to have 11 number 1 hits and 6 hit albums in 7 years!!!
I Love Rihanna, from the moment that Dream said she came up to him at the Grammy’s after she heard a demo of Umbrella which he wrote for Mary J Blige, grabbed his face and said “that song is mine” and then defiently cut all her hair off and died it black in an era where all girls where trying to be the next Beyonce, i knew then that regardless of whether Rihanna is a songwrite or not, this is a young women who is in control of what songs she records and how her image is delt with. I don;t believe there is anyone telling Rihanna what to do, she’s to raw, you can’t make that, thats totally organic, all of her influences from Madonna, to Ragga, are all there in her music shes very diverse and i think people just love her cos she is real, she has the perfect pop voice and by that i mean her tone is unique she does not sound like anyone else and thats part of what makes a great pop artist vocal that individual sound and she can sing very well, i think her last 2 albums especially have been fantastic pop records, and thats why she is doing so well, i’ve grown to respect her more as an artist with each record and she is getting better and better with age
Replace UNDER with OVER and there you have it.
she’s both UNDERRATED and The media’s favorite bunch bag , and this is coming from me !!
Under-rated because :
1.she really has a good voice. she’s no whitney nor mariah carey or that she’s a powerhouse when it comes to her voice . but she’s not offensive to your ears. no one hate a rihanna song !!!!! i didn’t meet this person yet. and she has a good voice ” when relaxed and seated” , when she moves , her voice suck.
but more power to her for not abusing lip-syncing as other artists did throughout their careers.
and she can handle the beats producers give to her. she has ” dance music” , “slow songs” , “pop songs” , “reggae songs” etc …..
so her voice is way under-rated.
2. her Budding talents is usually over-shadowed by her sexual image. it is not her fault she’s s*** !! 😉
3. People forgot she was a POOR island girl who wanted to achieve her dreams. she’s nOT american or from UK. so ppl do tend to neglect this fact. she’s an inspiration to ppl who are like her who want to be #1 in billboard or #1 in any field WHILE being an island girl coming form poor background.
4. people always compare her to other artists ignoring the facts that your own fingers doesn’t look the same. so how do u want all the artists to be the same ?
5. if only “LOOKS” is what is going to make you a singer , then “p*** machines/women” deserve their chances to enter the music scene.
amber rose and kim kardashian released songs already , right ?!! 😆
but they flopped while being s** symbols ?! right ?!
so why you only blaming rihanna as if she’s the only one ruining it ?!
and people actually L O V E her songs !! not like those other humans with silicone asses !!
so no , not only looks makes you a “Rihanna” !!! you need that “madonna” scheme as well !!
and every artist is a gimmick. only the % differs from one artist to another !!
so yes , she’s under-rated and can’t be over-rated cuz dumb ppl still call her “talentless singer” why they stan for kim kardashian and blast her single !!!!
why=while*
i think we all know each other so well. let’s just agree on two things :
Beyonce fans/stans opinion about rihanna will always be biased. sometimes it is true tea , and sometimes it is jealousy-driven and VICE VERSA !
rihanna is no beyonce and VICE VERSA.
agree ?!
hi @onyx , @gagaloo , @grammy , @commander and @lax !!
@KAT DELUNA :
let’s see how RITA will fare though. here we have Jay supporting her ass.
good luck to her.
@LTM :
LOVE YOU. but not all LM are delusional. actually there are some sane member.
and no , i’m no LM. i just like the artist without joining a particular fanbase. i rolled with them all and i didn’t like it.
@that bird stan :
go to your fav’s post and there your ” 1 username PER comment” trick will mean the world to her.
@Chole :
Beyonce is queen of what ?! i call her QUEEN/King B , not queen of …..
the only OFFICIAL well-known royalties i know are :
MJ : king of pop.
Madonna : queen of pop.
THAT’s ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT !!
U can go and ask bugs under a rock in india and they will tell you about them.
so …. Puh-lease !! 😉
@pop
Rihanna is not s*** she is sexual, there’s a difference.
S***= natural, effortless, poised eg Beyonce, Jlo,
Sexual= aggressive, antic, forced eg Rihanna, Madonna
Stop tryin to defend her vocals, im no pro vocal technician but even i can hear rihanna falls flat alot when she sings. If u can sing ur own song properly outside the booth then ur a faux vocalist PERIOD. youtube is your friend, sit down with a vocal coach. Best examples – all performances of WFL
@Blue
Lol are u serious? Ri cant pull off her own songs n ur mentioninv her cover of someone else’s song. Question: have u read the reviews for her tour? Pay attention to d strengths n weaknesses pointed out. She also sang Mariah’s hero,u obv missed my point altogether but if u think Jay signed cus of her vocal prowess, well then i cant even have a convo witchu
Hey there POP, dang it is always the “sos” as far as rihanna
and her many accomplishments goes. It matter a dam who
the best is why don’t they compare kelly, latoya and the other
destiny childs girls up aganist beyonce and tell me how all
of them fair. It is clear that all that rihanna has accomplished
pales in comparision to what beyonce has done but my goodness
beyonce has been in the game double longer than Rihanna has.
And Rihanna can say and be very clear “Look At Me Now” the
b-h** is worked up because even with beyonce’s grammy wins
wich is more than the other DESTINY CHILDS STARS all put
together still can’t block, slow or stop RIHANNA’S PROGRESS
Up that career ladder THEREFORE THEY RESTORTS TO TRYING
TO give REBRITH to beyonce’s pass and what she did when she
won the grammy well she have more grammys than any one dead
or alive but yet Rihanna has more grammy than the rest of DC I
WONDER HOW IN THE WORLD DID RIHANNA DO THAT IF SHE’S
SO UNTALENTED, CAN’T DANCE, SING OR POUR P*** OUT OF A
BOOTH TO LET MANY OF THE BEYONCE FANS TELL IT.
To let beyonce’s fans tell it Rihanna isn’t
S*** Yet Rihanna was Crowned the
SEXIEST WOMAN ALIVE,, Before the
Entire World,,,,Beyonce fans keep
typing you look so dumb right now.
They use the word UNTOUCHABLE Good word
to explain how RIHANNA IS in selling the 02 Arena
Solid for Ten (10) different Tour stops less see
Beyonce do this.
And speaking of RIHANNA’S UNTALENTED
And not being RECOGNIZED FOR HER VOCALS
Then explain how RIHANNA is the highest selling
‘Digital Seller in the United States, EVER????????
I mean explain your Logic,,,,Because where i am sitting
it make no kind of dam sense at all.
Explain to the navy how it is that since many of you feel
that RIHANNA can not sing, dance and even have gone
as far to say that RIHANNA’S TALENT DON’T PARALLEL
WITH HER SUCCESS……Then explain to me and the navy
just how is it that the Destiny Childs other members KELLY
Included how in the F** IS RIHANNA ON AND ABOVE THEIR
SUCCESS AND THEY CAN ALL WORK THEIR ASSES AND
THEIR MOUTHS TO SING AS WELL IF NOT BETTER THAN BEYONCE
YET BEYONCE IS THE ONE WHO IS DOUBLE MORE SUCCESSFUL
THAN ALL OF THEM LADIES, WHY IS THAT. Now mind you they can all sing and dance better than Rihanna can, see it just goes to show you that there is something that is very EXTRAORDINARY AND REFRESHING ABOUT RIHANNA!
@Calling the navy the SALVATIONARMY,,,,And saying that
Beyonce made more than Rihanna did when she was on
Maternity leave, well that might be so but she also made
more than the other Destiny Child Member too, Soooooo
We see that Rihanna wasn’t the only person/artist Beyonce
made more than while she was off having her pillow ooops
i mean “her beautiful bundle of joy” So there you have it if
You want to compare women/talent and singing and dancing
abilities less get real and show where and what the other
Destiny Childs super stars has done and less compare their
Accomplishments and Wealth to Little Ms Sunshine, now bring
your bragging and wagging artists aganist Rihanna on , come on
down to contestant ROW BYTCHES!!!!!!! Less see how Rihanna’s
Sles stack up aganist DC and their haul for this Pass year and for
this year already. Since RIHANNA IS SUCH A SO CALLED P*** POOR
ARTIST WHO’S TALENT ISN’T PARALLED TO HER SUCCESS THEN
LESS COMPARE SOME OLDER MORE SUCCESSFUL WOMEN TO
RIHANNA AND SEE HOW THEY STACK UP AGANIST THE TALENTE
CARIBBEAN IN THE MAKE THAT CASH DEPARTMENT. AND WHILE
WE ARE AT IT ITS ONLY FAIR THAT WE COMPARE “DC” WITH BEYONCE’S PAY ROLL ALL IS FAIR IN LOVE AND WAR, BYTCHES.
TGJ yall should be ashame of yourselves. All of these artist out here who don’t get any promotion, media hype, or respect and yall got the nerve to ask if Rihanna is underrated. She is not overrated but in the middle. She got most of her help from the incident with CB, and that is the truth.
@Pop
Love you too, but I was refereing to @Monster with that comment.
random: whatever happened to MadonnaLover?
For the people who think Rihanna has no vocal talent:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ajlk_2-kgk
And even if beyonce is a living legend then so is
others and she still can’t stop the likes of Gaga, Rihanna, Britney,kelly,
keri, ciara, xtina, maryj, britney and countless others from achieving
what they feel they can work hard to achieve so what is the point in
trying to talk Rihanna down she is still LEARNING and working to get
to where the likes of beyonce and others already are. Therefore to many
there isn’t a power struggle between Beyonce and Rihanna because
Beyonce is supposed to be a woman that artist like Rihanna and others
LOOK UP TO AND SINCE BEYONCE CAN STEP EACH AND EVERY STEP
THAT TINA TURNER STEPS DO YOU THINK THERE IS A POWER STRUGGLE BETWEEN THE TWO WOMEN HELL NAAAAAH THERES NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING INSPIRE NOW IS IT, YET MANY OF Beyonce fans talks all things RIHANNA Down and it is clear as day that RIHANNA PERAENTS A CLEAR AND PERSENT DANGER TO THE BEYONCE BRAND AND STYLE AND IT IS TELLING ALL AROUND THE WORLD,,,,,LIKE I SAID DON’T HATE THE PLAYER (RIHANNA) HATE THE GAME, YOU GETTO BYTCHE AND BACK BITTERS.
Hmmmmm if a Ass Kicking by any man can
INSPIRE RIHANNA To work her Ass off and
Make it to #7 on that Tour List and Rake/Haul
In 90 Million in 6 Months i think that every artist
In the Entertainment Industry need to get beat
Dam near to Death and see how much they can
make off of sadness! Man some of you are SICKO AND NUTTS!
Rihanna got most of her help from the incident, some of you need
to crawl back under that Rock you was under so your Brains can fully
develope and you can think with real sense again. If the Logic is that
getting beat dam near to death ENHANCED this girls career i wonder
just what has happened to all of the others who got beat down. Take
your MEDS AND RELAX TO A TALL GLASS OF …..STFU….Pleassssss!
Rihanna was hot s*** before c hris ever met her
and she still is. And if this Logic was true then
why isn’t he just as big if not bigger than she is.
Remember Rihanna came to the scene with
her first hit.
Whitney’s daughter don’t want to wear her dads name of brown
Any more she want her last name to be Houston and she wanted
it during the time of their split but Whitney would not let her do it.
I’m going to be 100% real . Rihanna is overrated. Simple as.
She is not an artist first of all, she is a singer. There is a difference.
She does not write her own songs, she does not produce, As far as I know she does not contribute to the vocal arangement of her songs either.
She has very little vocal talent and she can’t dance.
BUT she does make great music video’s.
She is a great visual artist.
What she is good at is making a simple repetitive pop hit that will be sure to go number 1. All she seems to care about is going #1 but hey as long as her fans are continuing to buy those easy pop hits why should she stop singing about s**? Its a formula that is working for her!
@chloe beyonce is a livin legend hahahhahaha you must be joking …you mean a copycat legend
i dont mind rihanna she has a few good pop tunes, but shes overrated. Stans opinions are irrelevant. She is an average singer at best. lets be honest, next these stans will say that ke$ha is the artist of the decade.
beyonce is nothing but a tina turner and diana ross impersonator
Rihanna don’t have to do nothing but what she have been
doing and how dare you weak narrowed minded folk to say
the fans and stans or irrevelant when we are the one who
support her and accept her just as she is and it’s always
the haters who can’t see that she is still growing and
learning. They can’t see Rihanna’s Greatness for their
hate of her and pissy because she is doing Great. They
are always wanting her to learn more and do more
well she is learning more and EXPANDING HER BRAND!
Just give her some more time on the clock like your asses
do with all of the other Artist. Rihanna performed in NO
Last night for charity Young Super Star Giving Back,,,
@JESS,,,,Try telling that to Brad Pitt for asking her to
Perform at his Event last night. Try telling that to the
Billion and counting people who watches her Epic
Music Video’s and try telling that to the people she
Entertained this pass year on her European Tour
where she made 90 Million in 6 months…JESSSS!
Why do every other person want her to do better
dance more sing harder dah, fah, dah when ther
is no written or spoken rules that shy she should
do any of that s*** yet there are many who are
waaaaaay more talented then she is yet it seem
they are taking their dear time and they have been
at it longer than Rihanna has Case in Point Destiny
Childs what do they all need to do since Beyonce is
so Paid where do they stack up, Bytches?????????
If Rihanna need to do so dam much training to get ready
to fill her shoes and she’s doing dam good then….What
do the other’s need to do?
Rihanna isn’t Underrated. She’s OVERRATED like Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj, Katy Perry. They sucks like their music and fashion. Hahahahaha! They’re famous because of GIMMICKS not because they have REAL TALENTS. Boo-hoo!
BEYONCE HAS NO PERSONALITY AND SHES A BITER WHAT HAVE SHE DONE TO BECOME AN ICON NOTHING AT ALL ANYBODY CAN DRESS TRASH LIKE A **** AND GET ON STAGE SOME PEOPLE EVEN SING BETTER THAN HER THEY AINT SELLIN OUT FOR WHITE PEOPLE AND TO STAY IN THE PUBLIC EYE. SHE GOES ON TOUR 3 TIMES A YEAR JUST FOR MONEY NOT FOR THE FANS SHE CAN SING BUT SHE CANT SING EVERYTHING HER VOICE IS NOT THE BEST SHE NEEDS TO MAKE BETTER MUSIC AND KEEP IT REAL THATS WHY PEOPLE HATE HER SHE USES SASHA AS AN EXCUSE TO BE A ***** ON STAGE WEARING A SWIMMING SUIT WITH A CAPE TO HONOR MICHAEL JACKSON ON THE BET AWARDS AND SHE DIDNT SING HIS SONG OR HER SONG THAT SONG AINT EVEN HERS ANYWAY SHE IS A FRAUD A FAKE I THINK SHES BIPOLAR WHO IS SASHA FORREAL IS THAT HER OTHER PERSONALITY WHY WOULD SHE CREATE A PERSON NAME SASHA AND SHES EVEN EMBARRASSED BY IT. THIS IS WHO U CALL THE NEXT ENTERTAINER OF ALL TIME PLEASE! SHE IS DOIN WHATEVER BRINGS MONEY SHES MONEY HUNGRY AND SHE BETTER WATCH OUT HER TIME IS ALMOST UP
Like I stated this whole post is about BEYONCE
@Grammy :
i’m not defending rihanna vocals , her voice is just fine. she is not a bad singer.
and the c*** was being hospitalized most of the time she performed WFL live. she was tired and struggling , and her people had no mercy. ” i remember her falling on the stage and her voice just went off in one of them ”
poor bajan 😥
they are working her to death. but if i am going to ignore all that and judge by only voice , yes you are right , she sucked at them !
but her grammy’s + the brits >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
baby gurl need a real good vacation with no blackberry , no twitter , no checking for Cb’s current Gf tweets and shading her with rice cakes ” both in twitter and in BC remix” Sweeter than a rice cake 😡 , no photo shoots or anything celebs-related , she need a real good vacation to restore her s*** and give us a good s***. cuz she did great in the grammy’s after a semi-good vacation.
so ….
and she need to step her game up cuz I started to like that Rita , and this is no Bueno ! it is like a beyonce stan loving keri hilson. NO GOOD ! 😳
and rihanna both s*** and sexual , naturally and all :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hD5MRBzY1uM
those eyes in the beginning , UGHHHHHH !! beyonce can’t give you that ! she just can’t !!!
Rihanna = S** on legs !!
from 2:35 mark to the end : S** !!! and those lil arabic moves she do >>>
naturally s*** !! 🙂
so stop that s*** about aggressive and s*** ! don’t let me pull that “video phone ” mess it will make rihanna’s attempts look like FLOPS , BOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY , lemme change topics already 😉
both of them are s*** ! and who’s sexier depends on your taste in women ! i just find rihanna naughty and show more personality than beyonce , and this adds so much to her sexiness. beyonce is just like the black J.Lo. and in the booty game , J.Lo’s >>>>
J.Lo >>> sasha fierce >>> pre-2009 Rihanna >>> 2007’s Beyonce >> post-2009 rihanna >> normal beyonce ! !! and this is my opinion ! not a fact.
@LTM :
i miss this h**. she was my bonnie 😥 😥
but i have lots of ppl i like in here , they are all in this post already 🙂
@LAX :
Rihanna is just impressive. but she need an upgrade. 🙂
Lax, just shut up and stop comparing everyone else to Rihanna, infact that goes out to everyone who has commented and felt the need to drag other artist down and big up Rihanna like she’s so great, sales theses days don’t mean everything, sales are not like how they were in the 80’s 90’s and all the previous decades when the likes of MJ and Whitney Houston were selling massive, out of this world numbers compare to what artists sell these days, even the current successful ones like Adele.
When Rihanna has been in the business for more then 10 years and is still successful then you can justify her being underatted, as for now considering she can’t really sing like a few out there and gets by on her look, manufactured produced popular music, throwing out albums every year to hold on to interest because we all know, if Rihanna dare take a break, once she returned, most people would be over her because she is a hit for the moment, not a legend.
She is very overrated, yes she made be successful right now but that doesn’t make her any better then anyone else in the business, some of you have the nerve to suggest Rihanna is more successful and bigger then Beyonce, oh please, Beyonce has been in the business for years now, she is already a legend, has the talent along with everything else, Beyonce can afford to take a break and do a comeback unlike Rihanna, who is scared of taking time out because Rihanna can’t afford too, Rihanna would lose her chart and current success momentum.
@Steph “Beyonce can afford to take a break and do a comeback”

Daaaaaaam You are telling me GRAMMY is

@STEPH,,,Look ass wipe i can name as many names as i fukkkkin want to. In my reasoning i have never ever denyed BEYONCE WEALTH OR HER TALENT WHAT
I Said was Compare Rihanna to the other Destiny Child acts and tell me how she stack up aganist them. Rihanna is still on her Journey to conqure the same territories that Beyonce has under her belt just some more time on the clock. Your thing is about Beyonce and that is okay but i am not trying to UP NO FUKKKIN BODY IT Seems that the CARDS ARE LEVELED AND STACKED AGANIST RIHANNA AND ALL IN BEYONCE’S FAVOR,,,,,I AM POINTING OUT TO YO M***** ASS THAT RIHANNA ISN’T THE ONLY PERSON THAT BEYONCE HAS TOPPED AND RIHANNA ISN’T AT THE BOTTOM OF NO FUKKKKKIN BODY’S SHORT LIST BYCH SHE’S AT THE VERY TOP AND IF YOU DON’T LIKE IT THAN KNOCK YOURSELF ALL THE WAY OUT. And i just wonder who all other than rihanna has Adele topppppppped this pass year and this year,,,,STEPH & RIHANNA HATERS.
@whut,,,,You have me ,,,ROTF,,,LOL!!!!!!
With all due Respest Rihanna haters This,,,,,Game Where
Rihanna is the Starring Quarter Back & Tackler has only
Just Begun and bigger and better Performances and
Thrilling adventure to keep right on going on in her Career Climb
Stay Tuned and Focus, Bytches. She will get as good as many of
the so called Big Girls in the Game and know that she is as S***

rir have no talente the people that like and support riri are beyonce hatters they might not like riri because she have no talente but they hate see bey do well to bad bey is very talented smart beautiful as rir for rir she is a devel
@pop
haha i find it very interesting and telling that u pulled a video from 2005 to show s*** Rihanna, u know when she was tryna be a poor man’s version of Beyonce. need i say more? 😀
@lax
esquire gave that title to a white girl from tv series. go take your meds, cretin
@grammy :
Boy , i know you know rihanna vids more than i know them. i just proved my point. go watch “rude boy” or even ”
doing beyonce or doing whatever , she is just s***. i was trying to prove ” she can do what beyonce can do AND BETTER” , hence posting ” If It’s Lovin’ That You Want ” which is , i believe , the sexier version of “baby boy” !!!!!!
don’t play with me considering that point. RIHANNA = S** !
DON’T TOUCH THAT TOPIC. you can go and watch ” baby boy” though , minus the Arabic dance breakdown which is my fav and i skip the whole vid to watch it , the vid was forced and aggressive as u say ! with “ahhhhh” and “ohh” as if someone is digging in her vag. LET’S NOT !!
baby boy was a beyonce vid , right ?! along with messy vids like ” video phone ” , right ?! 😆
both of them make my d*** not right 😆
This is so funny, IS RIHANNA BACK ON GOOD TERMS WITH JAY-Z…UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
@lax :
YES ! i believe if our b**** took a R E A L vacation from all the drama surrounding her , she will be back as a motherfuckin’ beast !
hope she take one ! and leave my Boo @grammy alone. he is messy when it comes to rihanna ! but i have to remind you he is a big beyonce stan ! what he is doing is no surprise to us , huh ?!
u guys should get along more than that. ugh ! 😡
@grammy :
beside that esquire s***. we all know rihanna is s***. not to the point to be the ” sexiest woman alive’ , but she is s***.
Rihanna = s** ! 😉
why is everyone comparing rihanna to beyonce? maybe beyonce has achieved more than rihanna but beyonce has been in the music industry for like 14 years thats twice the amount of time that rihanna has been doing her thing and plus beyonce has gotten exposer from Destiny’s Child and btw rihanna is the best selling digital singles artist in the u.s with 11 number ones. beyonce is just a basic bit*h compared to rih becuase rih is younger and has been in the game less time than beyonce has and look what she(rihannna) has already achieved. if bey had started off how rihanna started she would of been singing a different tune or no tune at all, so with that being said rihanna is better in comparison, maybe not talent wise but music wise rihanna slays bey all day every day
@RichandBlack :
riri is watching PornHub on daily basis ! Jay-z is not her cup of tea. he likes her but she don’t ! he is using her to get $ and she is using him to get fame , money and #1’s !! simple ?!
and why he’s not with beyonce based on what u say ?! don’t she know how to give him a good head and rihanna can ?! 😉
so u say , even in S** , rihanna is better ?! 😆
i can’t 😆 😆 😆
@pop
yeah we both agree that rihanna is s**! that’s why SnM vid was banned but not video phone because lil miss sunshine has to take it to the extreme (sexual) to give off an enticing vibe Meanwhile Bey can stand on a spot, hand on hips and the crowd wont stop roaring. her presence is magic. rihanna’s presence is as interesting as watching paint dry hence the need to feed her crotch every 2 mins.
rihanna did it better with if it’s loving? did u not have access to internet in 2005 cus everyone and their mama made it clear ri was a cheap imitation of the Queen. go check her reviews/ critics from that era, u know what Pop, we off that, i guess we’ll never be on the same page when it comes rihanna
What genre is Rihanna? and do you all realize what riahnna is supposedly doing now beyonce been there & done that. So it’s not really fair to compare the two.First they are a generation apart ( kinda) so they are incomparable . We all know bey is the KANG ( yes KANG) at what she do what she stand for and alll that good stuff . She’s survived in this game for 15 years so let the KANG stay in her own lane & leave the comparison for gaga , Katy & all them .
Ya stay so press on beyonce!!!!!!!!!!
BEYONCE and RIHANNA
Rihanna can sing many different Genres of music and she is a Hooks Queen
Beyonce can breath a breath of fresh air i hope since she know good and well
that Rihanna was never ever after Jay for love only business. And that should make Beyonce Fans feel great. And since Rihanna is the goose that layed the golden egg no matter how you slice it she is good for both business, money and support that comes beyonce and jay’s way in the form of a big fat % for Jay being her Manger.
I mean what do the Haters want Rihanna to do, she is giving it all she have got and then some and many of you are still pissy. Whey can’t we just wish her well pray for her to get even Bigger and Better. And just like Rihanna have got room for improvements in her Talented Career All of them have got room for INPROVED
QUALITY OF WORK, GOING FORWARD. Ain’t nobody mad because there are many who have achieved more than others but you don’t loose sleep hating on others because your Fave is hot to trot you just keep lifting your fave up on high to be even better. The field of Success is not closed to just ONE ARTIST it is wide open for all of the players and Rihanna is definitely a player.
@DEJA,,,Soooooo since some one have been there done that all
of the other artist are supposed to fall back and not achieve their dreams?
Can Beyonce EVER give this? End of discussion.

Lax, you are a FOOL and clearly up Rihanna’s ass, that’s all I have to say, I’m not going to waste my time arguing with a dumbass.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOOOL HaHAAAAAA…. U tried tho…I’ll give u that…. 😀
Once again this post is ALL ABOUT BEYONCE
I’d say i’ve heard a lot worse singers than Rihanna and her tone stands out.
She not a powerhouse but can sing.
Rihanna has song that are perfect with her sound and then she has others the sound abit nasle and annoying. Overall she has more good than bad.
TGJ have that love/hate with RiRi so it all good for her as she is popular with post replies.
Rihanna could do more vocal training but prefer she does it on a 2 year album break (if her label can act less desperate for once)
Yall love u some Rihanna.
Why is it always Beyonce Fans and Rihanna Fans going at each other
Why can’t ya just get along UGH!!!
Hell no. Next post lol.
I love Rihanna! but her fashion, her accent, and her legs are the only things that differentiates her from everybody else
This article was shade.com, but I’ll root for Rihanna. At least you can distinguish her voice from everyone else’s on the radio these days.
I REALLY WANT TO SEE RIHANNAS CONTRACT HOW MUCH % GOES TO HER LABEL AFTER ALL HER #1S AND THE TOUR LAST YEAR SHE ONLY MADE WHAT?? i THINK IT WAS $7iMILLION ON THAT 2012 BILLLBOARD MONEY MAKERS I THOUGHT SHE DID MADE A LOT LAST YEAR WITH ALL THE BUZZ ABT 10 SOLD OUT 02 ARENA DATES AND ALL THOSE HIT SINGLES I THINK SHE SHLD START PUSHING ON ACTING COZ THAT C****** GRABBING DOESNT PAY THAT MUCH THE LABEL IS SMOOCHING HER
Her songwriting teams have given us some very catchy music. HOWEVER, she is not the greatest singer, so I would consider her (just her) overrated.
@Grammy :
i didn’t say rihanna was doing beyonce better than beyonce herself.
i just said rihanna can also “do” beyonce and do it really good. but the imitator won’t be better than the original , huh ?!
i maybe go hard for her , but i’m so sorry , i’m not that dumb.
but “beyonce” looked good on rihanna though 😛 , after S.O.S , she Upgraded and did the whole “GGGB” thing which was better than beyonce’s style , esp with that hair-do back in the day 😉
and video phone was ” too much” !! like c’mon ! beyonce was whoring throughout the whole damn music video , and don’t make me show you them ” video phone” performances , i got that DVD already and i know what s*** i’m talking about.
talking about extremes :
Beyonce’s video phone > rihanna’s S&M !
you can’t tell me beyonce keep the class when she’s giving you those”sexually-driven” sasha fierce moves :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4M4IQrjHsk4
s**
whoring
non-classy
bitchy
etc…
so they both did it. beyonce also did it , and if she did it , then you can’t tell me it is wrong !! cuz by saying that , you also need to admit that beyonce herself is wrong !
hat video phone mess ” the video and it’s accompanied performances” is what rihanna simply do in her career , so why beyonce can do it and get a pass and rihanna is being trashed when she’s doing it ?!
and notice she wasn’t even singing in it , PLAYBACK !! 😡
talented or not , rihanna is known more than beyonce. so why we are even arguing ?!
both are whores , but who”s doing it better , it’s beyonce !!
sasha fierce ” beyonce” is a p*** star , let’s not :

YASSSS @ROBXD ALL THOSE H*** ARE OVERATED WITH FAST FOOD TALENT THAT ANY KID FROM ANYWHERE COULD DO JUST AUTOTUNE THERE VOICE AND THERE U HAVE IT #THE END. RIHANNA HAS NO CAREER NO #1 ALBUMS NOT EVEN #2 BWAHHAHAHA NO RELIABLE FAN BASE OR ANYTHING.
At least Rihanna doesnt go around ripping off everyone. Most singers dont write their own music….. who cares? It’s about how well the perform and execute it, they’re NOT song writers so wny judge?
She has grammys, all these awards, millions of albums sold. she’s not bad AT ALL. Rihanna is someone EVERYONE could love. She’s outspoken, s*** and sure of herself but people dont care about that.
Beyonce is a big phony, she’s talented and pretty but she’s 100% UNORIGINAL she steals everything. all these things that has made her famous, she’s stolen it and it’s not fair to people like Rihanna who put in work and get crucified. At least we can see Rihanna’s creativity, She doesnt sing about s** all the time. If people listened to her other music they wouldnt have so many negative things to say. They’re too ignorant and only pay attention to what’s put infront of them.
and calling her a w**** means NOTHING, Madonna was called a w**** and she’s the biggest pop icon EVER.
Rihanna is OVERrated. She cant sing for s*** (her fans are deaf so their views dont matter to me), she changes up her style so often to stay relevant (but people are starting to be bored of it now), she make ZERO effort in her tour and most of her performances (her latest performance on Ross show in the UK demonstrate what I mean). The only performance I have seen of her making an effort is grammy award.
I dont want “artist” to be serious in their performance, but they dont have to be LAZY like Rihanna!
LMAO @ rihanna fans complaining about beyonce stealing! Like Rihanna hasnt stolen concepts and writing credits! Most artists expect a few STEAL writing credits. It is standard practice for them.
@ pop
you were dissing rihanna HARD, now you are back to dissing beyonce? i cant…..
anyways, before rihanna entered the music scene, I held beyonce as the most OVERrated artist…………but rihanna has taken the crown!
I cant with this site…
The only I RATE rihanna for his her decisions and her style! that is it!
best regards,
Sam, are you bloody joking me? How much more popular does she need to be? I say she deserves what she gets.
She’s The Queen!
Hey there! I’ve been reading your web site for some time now and finally got the bravery to go ahead and give you a shout out from Houston Texas! Just wanted to say keep up the good job!
This was over a long time ago but as of 2016, Riri is underrated.
