        WELL DON’T COME BACK ANYMORE , YOU WANT BE MISSED

      • Lax August 30, 2012

        @BEYONCE’S WEAVE,,,thanks
        And for the Record you can take a tiger and paint him
        poka dot but down deep and under that paint , he’s still
        Tiger. I am saying that to say this RIHANNA don’t have
        Jack Shyt to prove any more say what ever you can think
        and pull out of yo ASSES and RIHANNA is still a “Boss”.
        Rihanna have long ago stepped out of beyonce’s shadow and regardless to what is said RIHANNA still have done
        EXCEEDINGLY WELL and has accomplished just as much if not more then the “Desting Childs” Artist and the proof is in her $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
        So keep BARKING AT/ABOUT rihanna because yo bark
        ain’t that bad, lol!

      • Lax August 30, 2012

        @ Grape, naysayers , doubters…
        And just so you’d know the proof that RIHANNA is more than
        a push over you would not have a Band and other’s trying to SHY TALK RIHANNA and her career , today there’s a group from the UK trying to shyt talk RIHANNA’S career and all of you should know that if Rih want to quit, stop are just take up something else she can and she’s well equipped to do as much.
        PS
        And if yo asses want to still be pissy, bitter and pressed BLAME JAY he as Judge Judy would say with a smile
        “Jay Picked Rihanna’! lmao. With RIH the JENNIE is out the bottle and there’s no stopping her now!WATCH AND SEE.

      awww…you’re a haterv *that’s sad*

  3. Benron (King Of The Navy) August 29, 2012

    Rita’s constant promotion and millions of dollars wasted want enough so now she tried name dropping. But now they are tagging her onto Rihanna even more sayign Rih stole her boyfreind at a group event, and now they are having Jay-z talk about her. Why dont they just stop before we see them having more losses than Oprah, ggive it a rest and try again next Rihanna clone, Rita isnt the next Rih, she is the next willow smith.

    • Lax August 30, 2012

      @BENRON u r correct on that!

      • RP August 30, 2012

        Agreed! They need to stop shoving her in our faces. Glad you like her, Jay, but keep her to yourself. RIP is terrible. Even though I think the song could be salvaged if it was Rihanna’s vocals, overall the song is not good to me. The way Rita sings it, it’s so lackluster. In the verses, she sings 1 single note for every word. It’s annoying! The way she enunciates “Rrrr Iiiii P” is not pleasing to my ears.

  4. Sarah Says August 30, 2012

    If only he paid this much attention to Alexis Jordan. He’s made a big deal about the song. If he thought it was so great he should’ve released it as the first single

    • Lax August 30, 2012

      @SARAH you are so right on and if his rich,
      hard looking ass would keep his mind on MANGING Rihanna’s Career INSTEAD of what Rihanna is doing with
      her chooch he’ll be okay and better off. Now he have got RITA’S little ass to ho around with making me happy as hell.
      His ass can’t control RIHANNA and for that he will try to pay for a big career for RITA,
      PS
      Jay & Company will learn that you can lead a HORSE to water but you sure can’t make him drink, meaning the
      roc and that grape can do everything including turning a flip and still yet you can not and will not ever be able to by a career for any one if the buying public sings a different Song!Period.

      • Lax August 30, 2012

        I see Jay as letting what ever happens to RIHANNA happen and then blame it on RIHANNA being wild and out of hands and WILDING OUT AND PARTYING her life away RIHANNA has the tools she need to rise right on up over and beyond
        anything she puts her mind to.

  5. Beyonce’s Weave (& Her “HIVE” of Head-Lice) August 30, 2012

    LMAO, it all makes sense now. I now see why Jay-Z is throwing millions at this chick, it is because the biggest THIEF has an even bigger EGO and she just cant let Rihanna beat her. She wants some random white girl to kick Rihanna off the charts so bad so her thieving, now irrelevant silicon ass can come shake her c****** on stage and blow the whiff from that dirty nasty stinky c****** to the unsuspecting crowd.

    I knew there was something fishy because with 3 flop singles in the USA, most labels would have called it quits in that market but no RocNation keeps on pushing but now it is clear. It is because the “King B” (King B****) is mad at Rihanna for stealing her thunder. BeYAWNce cant seem to get over 4closure and how Talk That Talk blew it out of the water without even much promo so she keeps on sucking Jay’s d*** so he can push this girl. That BeYAWNce needs to get over the fact that Rihanna is hotter than her. I cant with that BeYAWNce b****, she is a horrible creature.

    • palmgod August 30, 2012

      @BEYONCE’S WEAVE (& HER “HIVE” OF HEAD-LICE)
      YOUR JUST A RAT, THAT IS DELUSIONAL

      • BEYONCE”S B****** August 30, 2012

        And you’re a pressed b**** deal with it

    • RICHANDBLACK11(UNLIKE RIHANNA, BUT RICH LIKE BEYONCE 300+MM) August 30, 2012

      I swear the titanic be reaching

      y’all ARE DELUSIONAL DEAL WITH THE B****

      RIHANNA WILL NEVER BE HOTTER THAN BEYONCE

      Y’ALL SEEM TO ALWAYS FIND SOME WAY TO BRING BEYONCE INTO THIS.

      This is Jay-Z artist what the Hell Beyonce got to do with this chick?

      See what YOU PEOPLE NEED to be talking about is how Jayz is pimping both Rihanna and Rita, now thats the TEE

      • And August 30, 2012

        And don’t forget beyonce

    • Lax August 30, 2012

      @BEYONCE’S WEAVE You r so on Point! Beyonce
      has been pissed for quite some time now and deep
      down she’s pissed at Jay for letting that JEANNIE
      RIHANNA out of the bottle and for Jay training and
      teaching RIHANNA the ropes. But now since they
      see that Rihanna is tthis huge as Artist and a go
      getter they want to try and pull Rihanna back in
      some so that Rihanna want grow as fast as she
      was growing to get to where she is, and keep on
      OUT SHINNING BEYONCE. They are now trying to
      keep many BLOGS POSTING THE NEGATIVE ASPECTS
      OF ALL THINGS RIHANNA AND IT’S CLEAR TO ME AND MANY WHAT THEY ARE TRYING TO DO, BUT I THINK
      THEY ARE TOO LATE, HA, HA, HA!

    • kelly August 30, 2012

      I am glad others have seen it too. I do not like Beyonce anymore and I will never buy another Beyonce song again. She is an evil jealous b****, so bitter that a younger, sexier more interesting black girl has taken her shine ( as grazia magazine said ) that she will invest her money and time in this white girl who is trying to be Rihanna. Listen to Shina ya light . She tries to mimic Rih’s vocals.

      Beyonce is nearly 40, she should grown up. Younger, sexier women will always take your shine, Deal with it or go back to Texas.

    • kelly August 30, 2012

      You are right. No label in hell will keep investing millions and buying an MTV unlplugged for an act who has had THREE FLOP SINGLES IN A ROW IN AMERICA. THEY WOULD OF BEEN DROPPED, THE fact that they are pushing is because they want to destroy Rihanna versus making Rita Oar a star.

  6. DOSSOME August 30, 2012

    gud luck with rita ora TAKING OVER the u.s…gud luck with rita ora ending rihanna’s career,hope she manages to do what beyonce failed to achieve..good luck with o.r.a going diamond and outselling 21 and winning 7 grammys in 2013…ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ *ALARM CLOCK RINGS*time 2 wake up..what a dream.NEXT

      with trying to make Rita into a caribbean who
      talks with ACCENT, long legs, hazel green eyes and
      have never been a WHITE CHICK a day in her life lol.

  7. Pop Culture observer August 30, 2012

    Lol at these comments! I just love Rita

  8. J August 30, 2012

    Rira Ora is a joke. She won’t even blow up even if u put a bomb under her ass. Talent thrives without so much overtime, Beyonce couldn’t take down Rihanna, so Rita is just a small fry with mediocre songs. Next!

    • MC&TB4LIFE August 30, 2012

      Exactly! I cosign with u!

    • me August 30, 2012

      She won’t even blow up even if u put a bomb under her ass.

      hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

  9. Arie August 30, 2012

    RIP is not a good song for a first album especially if you are introducing someone to a new market.

  10. JJFan1814 August 30, 2012

    Not even selling out to the illuminati brought this girl success! If you think that’s bad, Jesus might convert her leftover album’s into bread & honey when he returns for his 2nd coming!!!

    Watch out!

    • Peter Griffin August 30, 2012

      Yep!

  11. Career Ender (Fierce Warrior) August 30, 2012

    LMAO!

    Poor Rita!

    Alexis Jordan >>> Rita , Alexis is the one who should be getting all these promotions

    • Peter Griffin August 30, 2012

      Thought they dropped that girl long time. Pretty but she had one big round moonhead.

  12. Career Ender (Fierce Warrior) August 30, 2012

    I don like dragging Rih but the titanic full of rihtards are always coming for the Kang!

    I’ll wait till rih’s 5th flop album and a 5 star forehead to match, then I’ll unleash the dragging beast for her and her titanic shipwreck

  13. MC&TB4LIFE August 30, 2012

    #1 SINGLE WHERE? CERTAINLY NOT ON THE US BILLBOARD! TGJ HANG IT UP, RIHANNA OWNS ALL THAT. RIHANNA HAS 11 #1 SINGLES THE ONLYN THING SHE’S SHORT IS A #1 ALBUM AND SHE CAN GO #1 ANYWAHERE IN THE WORLD EXCEPT THE US. MAYBE THATS HOW THEY FIXED HER. RIHANNA ONLY NEEDS A US #1 ALBUM AND SHE’S GOOD. COMPARING RITA TO RIHANNA IS LIKE SAYING BEYONCE IS BETTER THAN MARIAH CAREY, HELLO???? 16 GRAMMYS DONT MEAN A S*** CAUSE THEY WERE ALL PAID FOR. rEAL DINGERS AND DIVAS LIKE MC, TB AND THE LATE WH HAS ONLY 5, 6, 6 GRAMMYS RESPECTIVELY AND BEYONCE AINT NO MATCH TO THEM. TODAY THE GRAMMYS HVE NO WEIGHT, PEOPLE LOOK FORWARD TO THE AMAs, VMAs and WMAs.

  14. Mark August 30, 2012

    Rival? How? The chick don’t even have an album out not a #1 single nor not even a top 40 hit. She reminds me of Kat DeLuna, remember her? people were saying that she was better then Rih and where is she now? Rihanna is a super star for having countless hits and hit albums and is big all around the world. This chic isn’t even on Ciara’s level. Y’all make it seem like she’s pushing Adele’s numbers or something.

  15. NAYAH82 August 30, 2012

    Sam what you need to understand is that we….THE UNITED STATE OF AMERICA, don’t care about SMELLY ORA. The white blogs don’t know who she is, and the urban blogs call her Rihyonce and Gwen Stefani reject. And what’s with the fake Caribbean accent? Gurl…I’m Caribbean myself and you sound fraudulent with that fake ass accent you trying to pull!!

    • nunya August 30, 2012

      This!!!! We don’t want her. She can stay her ass in the UK. She needs to stop getting so much hype with that wack ass album.

      • RP August 30, 2012

        Thank you!

  16. kelly August 30, 2012

    Aww poor JAYZ ! Jay, You got your first UK number when you featured on umbrella. Then your second on we run this town feat Rih. You can only sell outside of America when you put Rihanna on the track.

    Rihanna is more famous than you Jay Z, she has outsold you all over the world. When Queen Rihanna and Em – the GOAT worked together, the created the biggest selling Rap song of all time shitting all over 03 bonnie and clyde.

    You are mad, Jay that you could never have Rih and she murders your fat hasbeen washed up wife.

    • MELODY2012 August 30, 2012

      How is he(Jay-Z) going to recoup Columbia/Sony money? Roc Nation mistake was to promote Rita like an A list instead of an up and coming singer. The public has to decide what’s going to be big in Rita case the public was told that she is a big star. Ask Interscope what happened when they said Born This Way was the album of the decade, the public turned their back on Gaga.

  17. dstrock August 30, 2012

    I mean, of course Jay Z was going to say something positive about it. Like, no surprise there, keep it moving.

  18. WOLVERINE GIRLS August 30, 2012

    Jay Z
    The Man who says 666 backwards on his records
    The former drug dealer, Who turned Rihanna from a Good girl
    Into the poster child for all things Devil worship
    The Man who betrayed Damon Dash
    The Self Appointed “Genius”
    You and the rest of Illuminati can pack your bags and get out of My Town!

  19. WOLVERINE GIRLS August 30, 2012

    SARAH SAYS

    You want to know why Alexis Jordan is not a superstar?

    Roc signs people they think are a threat to the success of the favorite Acts
    Then they stiffle their careers to prevent them becoming a success
    They’re allowed a little bit of success, but not enough to challenge
    The one’s Roc favour over other’s
    It’s their way of cornering the market, and preventing people like Jordan
    from becoming a success under a different label and therefore a threat
    to the sales of the few Acts, Roc want to monopolise the market.

  20. Back2Business August 30, 2012

    Why do people bring up Beyonce’s name when it has nothing to do with her? CLEARLY the Navi is pressed that Beyonce doesn’t f*** with Rihanna the way she does Rita! Maybe it’s because Rita actually has talent?

    Rita Ora is doing pretty good right now especially in the UK, 3 #1 singles from a debut is a nice look; hence the fact that Rihanna didn’t have a UK #1 until her 3rd album! And tbqfh Rihanna didn’t see much success until her third album, so Rita has time to grow and become a chart topper in the US.

  21. JL August 30, 2012

    LMAO the comments on here are a mess.
