i dnt think he was talkin about rihanna because even though rihanna doesnt sell the way one of the biggest stars in the world (her STANS words not mine lol) should sell she still sells decently .. not because of her talent rihanna sells her personality so yea she sells albums (kinda i mean only 3 out of 6 have sold well) but she still does kind of contribute to the problem ..U dont have to have talent anymore to be considered one of the biggest stars and thats really just sad ..Adele has sold amazingly and is considered to be jus as big as rihanna but would we say they are equally talented .. that would be a complete and utter joke to even consider that LOL i think the industry needs to get back to artist development and creating a complete package .. i mean wen u think about it which artists of today can kill an uptempo then sit down at a mic and give a flawless vocal .. we have beyonce, gaga, pink and uhhhhh thats about it .. with all the artists out today we should have a bunch of those kind of well-rounded artists as well as the adeles and mariahs etc. .. we have the opposite .. we have artists that cant sing and cant even make up for it with flawless choreography like a janet its just a bunch of mediocre crap .. I duno i hope talent becomes important again because looking at the hot 100 sometimes is just depressing
