Rihanna’s ‘Bitch Better Have My Money’ Blasts To #1 On iTunes

Published: Friday 27th Mar 2015 by Sam

Rihanna‘s new single, ‘Bitch Better Have My Money,’ may have been panned by critics upon its premiere yesterday. However, it appears the star’s fans have taken the track’s title literally and helped it blast straight to the top of the iTunes tally.

Details below…

After an odd period of downtime on the US digital retailer, ‘Money’ suddenly appeared in the top spot – where it’s been lodged since the earlier hours of this morning.

The bizarre occurrence even has some of the model’s fans scratching their heads, as preceding single ‘FourFiveSeconds’ was received (marginally) better, yet didn’t kick off to as solid a start. Indeed, the Kanye West and Paul McCartney assisted cut didn’t reach the pole position of the chart as quickly upon its release in January.

**************

The numbers don’t lie…or do they? That’s a discussion for another day.

In the here and now, though, chart positions do not dilute the reality that the song is easily one of Ms. Fenty’s worst singles to date. It’ll be incredibly intriguing to see if the track will grow legs to a) sustain longterm and b) carry its parent album, which has been chronically delayed.

Your thoughts?

    Another hit, lol. It’s going to be a sad week for a Rih Hater. Hahahahaha

    • Edna March 27, 2015

      Kanye’s did too.., it’s currently #68 three weeks later… #ImSleepTho

    • Lana Del Fan *I Can Hear The Sirens* March 27, 2015

      I actually love Rihanna but I truly feel this song was weak. I’m waiting for American Oxygen and Higher.

    • kyla April 3, 2015

      RIHANNA ONLY NEED TO OPEN HER MOUTH AND ILL BUY THE SOUNDS COMING FROM HER!!

  2. #JACKIE March 27, 2015

    Blah it won’t hit #1 on the real charts….

    • Garcon March 27, 2015

      Cedric won’t even hit number 1 on the fake chart tho…

      • RihNaj March 27, 2015

        Lmfaooo crying @ Garcon f****** dead!

      • afterhercareer March 29, 2015

        Ciara WILL personally put a nails in the casket of Rihannas career Within 2 years, and will do something this year that will seriously injure it , Mark my words. I put that in the universe now , so I literally pray to God that will happen. And you know why I want rihanna to fail? Because I honestly feel in my soul that she doesn’t truly deserve the position she’s in , especially with her bullying others and thinking she can get away with it , and after she (continuously) kicked my baby (Ciara) when she was down , I developed a sense of deep dislike for her , and it doesnt make it no better with her arrogant attitude and thinking that because she has more money (thats probably not even all hers to be honest) , for example when she started beef with teyana Taylor and called herself bullying her , and teyana wasn’t having it and r****** said “I hate broke b******” and “you won’t get that @ from me” Rihwind is just an unessessary b**** and her fans are even more rihtarded , (if your a fan of her I have absolutely no respect for you), Ciara will get her victory in the music industry that she truly deserves , and until that happens (which will be really soon) , I can finally completely get on with my life , because I can’t go on peacefully knowing that someone who doesn’t deserve the music success is getting it , and someone who does , currently is not.

      Jealousy won’t stop that RIHANNA reign.

  3. Garcon March 27, 2015

    And here comes the haters in 3..2..1

  4. Bang Bang March 27, 2015

    I told tall she’s not gonna fail! The record labels working overtime to make sure that don’t happen! Also she doesn’t have to have good or classic music to sell records she’s using the power of her name!

    • Cupid March 27, 2015

      You have your own definition of “good”. This was a smart move by Rihanna. It’s obvious that with this song she would gain the full attention of her urban audience. Also it’s just a “fun ratchet” song. Something that’s easy to party. Rihanna isn’t just a pop artist. She’s actually a CROSSOVER artist. Most artist can’t say the same

      • Lake Erie March 27, 2015

        Yes, I agree with you. I couldn’t of said it better. Because speaking from what I witnessed, a lot of the people from the urban crowd was not feeling four five seconds.

  5. Kmat March 27, 2015

    Boss B****!

  6. Kyle March 27, 2015

    Lmao its so sad she had to resort to this. Her fans are boasting but they don’t see the kiii of it all. Timeless?

    • Cupid March 27, 2015

      Ahh shut up. “Resort” to what? She could’ve easily smashed with a safe song. So she didnt have to “resort” to anything. Lol

      • Thetruth March 27, 2015

        Dumbass, did she ‘smash’ with fourfiveflops?

    • Al March 27, 2015

      Bout as timeless as Oprah’s weight loss #chickenwings

  7. KING RIH March 27, 2015

    Its charting like a pop song across Europe. Who else could? This timeless bop is slaying

  8. JuJu March 27, 2015

    Q U E E N !!!!!!!

  9. Fran March 27, 2015

    Oh god. I woukd be embarrassed for her if this goes to #1 over FFS.

    • igotstatellithowiseeit March 27, 2015

      Oh no dont feel embarrassed for her, feel embarrassed for her fans. We live in an age where an artist can’t make music they want they have to make music fans want and the radio will play…. this is a classic example.

  10. Kmat March 27, 2015

    The reason why Rihanna is so successful is because she owns what she does. Any sound, any look, any business move is owned by her without any trepidation or regrets. While I love Beyoncé and gaga, they play it safe most of the time, and when they do take risks, they don’t own it especially when it backfires.

    • JuJu March 27, 2015

      Half true. Rihanna is indeed more versatile, that is because she has the traits, a strong image that allows it and she is younger than both of them. Gaga does not push boundries, she breaks them, thats why for a while she actually owned her crayziness, and Beyonce’s brand is no longer “sasha fierce”, it has become personalised so For example… If she released promo for Ring Off instead of 7/11, the results would have been better.

      • Yonce on your mouth March 27, 2015

        B**** Beyonce don’t play it safe. Her surprise album was anything but safe. 7/11, Drunk in love etc are not safe. So Sftu and give Riri her compliment without talking trash about Beyonce, especially when u don’t know the facts.

      • Cupid March 27, 2015

        Gaga gives too much and Bey could never even in her younger days pull of Rih’s rockstar image. NEVER. Rihanna is more relatable than these other stars. Easier to connect with. She chose not to uphold a fake image and it worked for her.

      • Cindy March 27, 2015

        You sound stupid, that “bad girl” image didn’t come to GGGB, which is when she began garnering more success. Every artist has an image.

      • Jewel March 27, 2015

        But her bad girl persona is all marketing. She aint about that life boo. Shes a sheltered little island girl.

  14. TheElusiveLamb March 27, 2015

    Congrats Riri.

  15. Christian March 27, 2015

    This is timeless? I thought Whitney, Mariah (in the 90s- 2008), Janet, etc were timeless. She’s talmbout somebody better pay up over a trap beat… sounds like alot of the generic garbage on the radio already.. so how is this timeless?

    • TheElusiveLamb March 27, 2015

      Mariah’s entire discography is timeless.

  20. SLAYRIAH CAREY (TOUR DE FORCE) March 27, 2015

    Wow it’s even off to a better start than FFS! Congrats Rih!! I still love her tracks from the Home soundtrack more than these singles from R8, especially as real as you and me. Still excited though.

  21. sashay March 27, 2015

    Wait so David wrote the initial article..then Sam had to come with his salty ass to add his tired shade.

    Every move she makes, you declare it her last but she always have the last laugh. Stay mad Sam

  22. SAM DELUSIONAL March 27, 2015

    SAM, correct your post.FFS has had a time if not brief on top of the itunes chart.

    Your journalism is a joke generally, but you at least try and twist and turn FACTS rather than make of complete lies.]

    edit that post sweety

  23. Keri Qween March 27, 2015

    Yassss b**** you better slay with a ratchet single

    When will the othas..when will they?!!!!!!

    #3 in the UK the slayage is real

  24. LOL March 27, 2015

    LOL THE ROACHES CAN’T TAKE THAT RIHANNA REIGN LOL.

    DID 9/11 OR THE FLOPLESS REMIX DO THIS? LOL

    • Huh? March 27, 2015

      Naw, but 16 Beyonce’s ALBUM went number 1 in 100 countries after it dropped in a matter of hours. Selling 600,000 in 3 days. Can Rih do that?

      • yelyah the alternative queen March 27, 2015

        Artpop was number 1 but that was still considered a flop. So an album going number 1 either means nothing or you fleas are contradictory. Like your fave

      • Cindy March 27, 2015

        Did Artpop sell 600,000 in three days though? Artpop isn’t platinum either, terrible comparison. Like I said holla at me when your fave does it…

    • yelyah the alternative queen March 27, 2015

      The point was that it still debuted at #1 which means little

  25. yelyah the alternative queen March 27, 2015

    Slay me a new on queen Rih!

  26. Huh? March 27, 2015

    Some of you ppl are extremely delusional, I’m not even a huge fan of damn Lady Gaga but she has taken more career risks than Rihanna in her short time in the industry. She became one of the biggest pop sensations after one album. She actually had a voice and stood up for gay rights and etc. Also, her and Beyonce are both worth more than Rihanna child what? Holla at me when Rih has the balls to release a whole album on ITunes with no lead single or promo. Also, when she makes the industry change release dates. That’s impact, darlings. Pitbull can get a quick number 1. Congrats to her, but don’t be delusional.

  27. r**** is washed up March 27, 2015

    Of course she is number 1. Nothing else came out yesterday. LET see how it holds up next week on tuesday./ She runs her label and believe she is paying thought her wide nose for payola. Ryan sea crest played yesterday. Madonna and beyonce won’t pay for playa, that is why they top the forbes list and she WILL NEVER.

    sHE HAS 2 songs in top 10 junes in most countries. That is good, but single snake no money. HER album UNA did not even sell 1 million in the UK AND ONLY slatted at 2.6 mill. So she is a single artist.

    PS: She only owns the master to future releases and not anything under def jam.

    • TheElusiveLamb March 27, 2015

      You sound bitter

      • r**** is washed up March 27, 2015

        YOU ARE BITTER.

      • TheElusiveLamb March 27, 2015

        I’ll never be as bitter as Ritalin Oral when Calvin Harris scrapped her album after she quit reinfecting him with her swollen p**** in the studio…

      • r**** is washed up March 27, 2015

        You are bitter that Rita has more money than you and all you have is daily and hourly comments on blogs. You have no life or money. Even Rita Ora would laugh at ur pitiful life.

        I did not even bring up rita, nor have I have been on the blog for months. But rita is on your mind cos she is doing in life, WHAT U WILL NEVER EVEWR DO AND THAT is all that matters.

  28. yelyah the alternative queen March 27, 2015

    The only thing delusional is the filthHive thinking FilthYonce can act or sing without screaming.

  29. r**** is washed up March 27, 2015

    She is doing the same shock realises like Beyonce only she has to rely on promo and Payla. She has this song playing on Ryan sea crest show and will perform at some radio show. BEYONCE HAS THE GUTS to drop without RADIO OR PROMO AND STILL GO PLATINUM.

    THAT is where rihanna will fail. 10 YEARS….SHE peaked now. WAIT TILL END OF 2015 AND I will be right. LET rihanan drop her single on Tuesday, without payola and PROMO AND SEE… BUT she is getting older now and she is at the stage where SHE will have radio support declining, then, it will be the end of her career.

    • Silicone Queen March 27, 2015

      Meanwhile RIHta Ora is still being ignored by the general public

      • r**** is washed up March 27, 2015

        NOT AS BAD as how you are ignored by society at large , except when your black broke ass get racially profiled. ALSO….RITA STAYS ON YOUR MIND, I did not even bring her name up; you did. SHE STAYS ON YOUR MIND COS you know BY ALBUM 3, like rihanna SHE WILL SLAY.

        SHE already has her money.

    • RihAmerican (hives scared of R8) March 27, 2015

      Shock releases?? Where?? Everything had a date and was announced.Delusional much.Rihanna started the shock release with Diamonds(promo pic with her hands, rolling blunt).Bit ch remain seated!!

  30. Beyhulu March 27, 2015

    How Sway? I am really going to be pissed if this does better than “Flawless” remix.

  31. RihAmerican (hives scared of R8) March 27, 2015

    Weren’t you fleas dragging ffs for not reaching #1 on itunes?? Now that BBHMM is #1 you’re still bi tching.And she isnt clinging so whats your excuse??

    • Keri Qween March 27, 2015

      Yess they were and they looked like fools when it did hit #1 on Itunes then theREe excuse was that it didn’t stay #1 for long they are a bunch of pressed souls mad because clearly Rih does ratchet better, check itunes for reference KIIIIII

      • RihAmerican (hives scared of R8) March 27, 2015

        Exactly
        Not only did they drag ffs,they dragged “Pour it up”.Claiming that its a flop and she can’t slay with an urban track.Well “b itch” shuts that argument down.At this rate it looks like it will become a top 10 hit on the BB Hot 100.
        She snatched 9/11,Flawless,Partition. she is coming for Drunk in lust.

  32. yelyah the alternative queen March 27, 2015

    Lel.
    This song may be a bit ghetto but it caters to new money ghetto people, that’s why it can go number 1 while bey’s class of ghetto people can’t chart their 7/ll in the top 5

  33. Cindy March 27, 2015

    She uses clear channel more than Katy, but no one calls her out. And yes its a huge risk releasing a trap song after Trap Queen and Hot Ni* went top 10 *sarcasm*

    • blue March 27, 2015

      you do realise that radio deals and payola are two different things? Rihanna has never been accused of using payola and her biggest radio hits actually match up to her biggest sale hits. Her sales and radio play are never unproportional like say katy and taylor swift

  34. blue March 27, 2015

    selling 2:1 over uptown funk…

    Why is the hive so pressed about rihanna making timeless music? Shouldnt you be demanding that from your fave and not a singer yall hate?

  35. jen March 27, 2015

    Lol at him deleting Davids article because it was positive. So disgusting and low down.

    • TheElusiveLamb March 27, 2015

      Lol. They moved Nicole’s article lower and pushed this article to number one hoping for another stan war happens. I can’t shade though. That’s how they get their coin.

  36. blue March 27, 2015

    someone give sam a heart transplant…

  37. Silicone Queen March 27, 2015

    There is a clear difference between payola and a clear channel deal which usually expires after a day or so. Also payola has nothing to do with iTunes!!! The people wanted ratchet so that’s what she gave them! FFS is STILL perched in the top 10 of iTunes and top 5 bb too!! BLAT BLAT BLAT!!!

  38. Keri Qween March 27, 2015

    Not I flop dropping -17 spots in one week kiii the z squad should be focused on their struggling fave than Rihanna, if they spent as much time supporting her as they trolling TGJ she would have sold more than 111k of her struggle single

    Rih probably will sell that in one day kiii

  39. XYZ March 27, 2015

    even though the song is not good…I can’t with These grapejuice lies of a delayed Album. This Album has never been delayed. Just because you thought that it would have come out in 2013 does not mean that is has been delayed…

    • Jewel March 27, 2015

      She said it was coming out in 2013.

      • blue March 27, 2015

        she never did, if you go through all her interviews, she was very careful never to give a definite time frame.

      • Jewel March 27, 2015

        She didn’t give a specific date, but her family were tweeting about a complete album in August, and she said it was coming ‘very soon’ in like October. Almost half a year later, you can put the pieces together yourself.

  40. Molly March 27, 2015

    That’s good for her but the song still is lackluster.

    • yelyah the alternative queen March 27, 2015

      have been playing those higher snippets on loop back to back! That is gonna be my fav song of the album, love how raw her voice sound on it

      • Blue Ivy Rodriguez March 27, 2015

        I know right? It reminds me of Amy Winehouse, I can’t wait to hear the full version.

  50. Rihboy March 27, 2015

    Has her own fans scratching their heads? Must be talking about the hive who shitting they pants right now. Her team knows exactly what they are doing. everuthi g negative is null and void on four five seconds and or Bbhmm because they are both in the iTunes top 10. I’m pretty sure when she performs Sunday she will do both songs to remain on top. Then after march madness drop American oxygen. Number 1 again. And then April drop the album surprise! And make the rest of it album only!!!! Like pettyonce.

  51. r**** is washed up March 27, 2015

    OK all these top radio hits. I expect this album to open more than Drake. If not…..she is done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and even payola and pr GIMMICKS won’t save her. SHE no longer has def jam team anymore.

    • blue March 27, 2015

      she has had one radio hit so far this era…what are u on?

      Rihanna has never done drake numbers, b**** will open in her usual lane and continue on to outsell all your faves. Except taylor of course

        I expected something more mature from you, guess, i give you too much credit….I have nothing to say about the album chart position, it’s a flop, i’m not making excuses, you know, i’m not that kind of fan, i have integrity.

      • Molly March 27, 2015

        Lol @S****** you better clock Mark and yes you give him way too much credit he’s nothing but one of LBs lifeless minions.

  55. Grande The Way March 27, 2015

    Congrats to her I guess. I shouldn’t be surprised that this went to #1 over the songs off the Home soundtrack. Ratchet songs are popular right now.

  56. #TeamTinashe Stan March 27, 2015

    Nice!
    Now that I heard the song in CD Quality instead of Radio rip I now can say after listening to it over 20 times I can say I actually like the song as I actually came up with music video ideas for it lol. The video has to be dark and grimy with a little bit of a Drake “Worst Behavior” vibe to it. I compare the song to her past singles “Hard” and “The Wait Is Over.”
    Now I am still going to HOLD UP Ms. Fenty for releasing this thing after FFS because now it takes way the idea of me saying “she is on her way to making a decent top to bottom critical acclaim themed album.” And this song lyrically and production wise is way more better than 7/11. Now that was just foolish.

    • Blue Ivy Rodriguez March 27, 2015

      I agree the dog is very good.. It made me wanna dance and get ratchet, smack some h*** and shout “where my money bitchh”

        BEYONCE SOLD 4 MILL

        UNAPOLGECTIC SOLD 3.6

        I have no ideas what bowie sold. ALSO BEYONCE – 3 singles are platinum and won a grammy

        THE REAL QUEEN OF POP. BLOOP!

    Itunes? Reading this comment you would think it was the Hot 100

  61. r**** is washed up March 27, 2015

    ALL these number 1 singles on iTunes and yetr she has pitiful 1st week sales and struggles to go platinum in the USA AND only get number 1 album after years. HER last album after stay and diamond only sold 3.6. She singles artist who gets the radio listener.

    They say she is the queen of pop but every tour of hers, even in stadiums end up being her loss to her and her tour gross are weak.

    They say she is the queen of fashion, yet rita ORA gets more fashion deals, with more money and sells as much magazines as she downs. Beyonce DOES actual partnership deals. HER DIOR DEAL is not with much but free clothes. Beyonce partnership with Guiseppe Zanotti will make her more money

    They say she is so sexxy and stunning but LEO dicaprio, calvin harris, Alexandr Sakrdsgard have all dissed her and kept it moving.

      And where’s RIHtas albums and singles outside of the UK? You might as well go back to stanning for Rihanna becuz you are fighting a losing battle lol.

  62. r**** is washed up March 27, 2015

    Stay and Diamonds…..

    BUT how much did Unapologectic sell?

    How you gonna have 10 million single and but an albumhvering around 3 mill?

    Singles artist, indeed.

    • Silicone Queen March 27, 2015

      How much has RIHta sold? Why can’t she release anything outside of London?

      • r**** is washed up March 27, 2015

        7.2 million not american debut needed to scan millions

        stacked £ 30 mill net worth

        BLOOOP

        STILL hot, fly with banging body. Oh, and she has a man. She is not s*** that got dissed by Leo Dicaprio.

  63. Uriel March 27, 2015

    Why this site slams Rihanna so much? Every single post about her has some shade even between the lines. I don’t mean to be rude but come on! She may not be the greatest singer, the most beautiful, or the best role model to follow, but if she wasn’t good, why do people love her and still craving for whatever she does? FourFiveSeconds wasn’t good? Why it still on the top 5 at Billboard Hot 100? Being number one isn’t whag counts the most at the end of the day, want an example: Britney Spears’ Hold It Against Me did hit the number one spot, and Till the World Ends never did, but Till the World Ends made much more impact, in the US and worldwidely. Everybody made fun of Rihanna calling her generic, basic and all that stuff, and when she tries something different y’all get mad at her? What the hell!!! By the way was her album delayed, because if there was ever a release date it was never annunced to the public officially. Also remember Beyoncé’s self-titled album, she gave us some treats, excluded some songs from the final tracklist (Grown Woman, I Been On…) and then she smashed all of us in december of 2013. Please, give Rihanna a break. I agree that BBHMM isn’t the best thing she ever did, but let’s give her a time, she deserve it! Thank you!

    This is the trailer Rita new movie, which is not some dumb ass cartoon. It is real role, with ACADEMY award winning actors. Rita is 3 years into her debut and she already has it like that. She is not scared of some washed up dumb ass h**, who got used out by Leo diccaprio did not even claim her. Eveb after all her leaks to press; he even denied and now, he was with justin bieber and some blondes. Rita O gets claim by her men. Whores don’t get claimed. Rihanna is h**. Rita has been dating tommy hillfiger son for a year now.

    Rita and her sister are so much SMARTER WITH the money than Rihanna. One album and alread worth £30 million due to investments and property portfolio. Rihanna with her bankrupt law suit ass.

    RITA is not out for cheap lil iTunes singles and below par album; she is building a MULTI brand and it has worked. ALBUM 1 AND ALREAD HAS Property brand; fashion and makeup brand; tv and movie brand and her she sings.

    SHE DOES NOT EVEN NEED MUSIC TO MAKE MONEY.

    THE REAL WINNER

  65. RATEDXXX March 27, 2015

    It’s 2015 let the word HATER die..damn..

    rihanna is above releasing crappy music now…I’m not looking for something timeless..she already has may classic songs

    but this new song sucks..I don’t care how many numero uno charts it makes….

    and none of the beyondfake mental devil worshipers should be talking ish about this song

    when the majority of the fake bish songs sounds basic as he!!…..people in glass houses should not be throwing stones

    Academy award winner Forrest whittaker

    Academy award nominee Jake K

    Acadmey ward nominee – Rita Ora

    LET old ass rihanna keep her little payola iTunes singles and underperfoming albums. Rita is craving an even more important career. Even Madonna failed i Hollywood. Rita is really rocking.

  67. RATEDXXX March 27, 2015

    ahahaha..are we comparing rita ora(who?) to rihanna now…shid

    rihanna’s new song may sound like crap..but she still is a bad bish..rita will never be on rihanna’s level of fame…

    I give props when props is due….but we have been hearing about about this chick taking rihannas spot for years now..and

    There are sources predicting that Home has a chance to debut at #1 with 30-32 million; the H/I/V/-A/I./D/S HIVE WILL SEEETHHEEE at the constant winning BY ICONNA!

    • KeKe March 27, 2015

      And it has already made $19 Million lol watch how the others seethe

    • LDN Chick March 27, 2015

      FLOPPP thats less than Epic! Screamingg!

    • FutureCIARA March 27, 2015

      Wow, That is not so good. The film industry is struggling just as well as the music industries sales decline.

  70. RihAmerican (hives scared of R8) March 27, 2015

    That Rita stan is having a meltdown!!! Kii

  71. Rory March 27, 2015

    Sam shut up. It didn’t MYSTERIOUS appear number one. It crashed just like Bey’s album did. When the site gets so much traffic, it crashes or freezes. Doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that out. Congrats to Rihanna

    • Rory March 27, 2015

      *mysteriously

  72. LB March 27, 2015

    What is shocking to me is this song is charting like a LOUD single all over Europe. Even France is getting ratchet with Rih…..anyway it’s off to a good start.

  73. bria March 27, 2015

    Seethe Seethe and seethe some more

    The spell has been broken everyone can see tha beyonce does not belong on anyones pedestal (noone does) and is ” better” than noone

  74. LDN Chick March 27, 2015

    Meanwhile Home, is debuting in the US with less with than Epic. And almost double the budget #DEAD

  75. M March 27, 2015

    There Sam goes again with this ‘chronically delayed’ b*******. Homegirl takes a good year or two to relax, no mention of an album or it’s title and it’s been ‘delayed’. Where do you get your sense of reasoning from?

    Anyhoo! BBHMM crashed iTunes then broke iTunes. The single can’t even be purchased at this time because of traffic. Wow! Rihanna is back. This is shaping up to be a good year. Side note: FFS is the best selling single of 2015 (so far). Didn’t know that. Kudos to Ms. Fenty.

  76. bria March 27, 2015

    No one care about beyonce

    Her single chart positions and purchases illustrate that

    And no care about her fake album sales and critical acclaim

    We are talkong popular opinion and that is that fake hating bish showed her truw colors (again) and this time the piblic took note

    Noone besides her fleas care about her meanwhilw people All over the world want Rih

  77. JP March 27, 2015

    It is definitely very raw and gritty. It kind of reminds me of her “Rated R” material. At first listen, I didn’t like it, but as with most of her material (excluding FFS) it bumps like a hip-hop single would (I guess we can thank Kanye West for that since he produced her new album). Regardless, it will be a big hit on urban radio.

    I noticed that Grape Juice continues to repeat that her album has been “chronically delayed” yet Rihanna (nor her team) have ever discussed a release date. How is a project “chronically delayed” if there has never been a release date??

    STOP HATING ON RIRI GRAPE JUICE!!!

  78. bria March 27, 2015

    Seethe sam seethe and then seethe some more

    Cant wait to bump this when i het off work on my ride

  79. DA Realest March 27, 2015

    Well I hope she makes a MV for it right away while the song is hot and definitely start doing some promos and doing some decent choreography for the song.

  80. Everyone’s A Critic March 27, 2015

    Lol who wrote this article? Why they mad?
    Worst single to date?? I live for this rihanna!
    Take your soggy opinions and do like s*** TGJ.. Flush it

  81. Rosie March 27, 2015

    Death at the way the Navi were melting down when this premiered (specifically on the other forum) only to stan downEas soon as it hit #1 on iTunes. Same with FourFiveSTDs. They dickride the charts so hard.

  82. Cough Cough March 27, 2015

    I know Rihannas die hard fans who are bragging about iTunes charts, can’t help but be hurt inside that no matter how successful this song is, they’re disappointed. This is not the song they wanTed… This is not the slayage that they were hoping for… This is not the era they’ve been praying and hoping for… They can act like they’re excited and brag all they want but we all know they were just as underwhelmed as the rest of the world. Sucking at number 1 on iTunes is still nothing more than popular sucking.. Lol

  83. Stephy March 27, 2015

    Good For Her. What if this song becomes her 14th #1? That would be funny.

  84. Navy Nick March 27, 2015

    This song is a mess., but it’s rihanna!

  85. Aross March 27, 2015

    You’re an idiot. It wasn’t panned by critics. #bye

  86. robyn March 27, 2015

    We stan for rihanna and this track is amazing so stfu, Beyonces like running their mouth as if their any better, pretty hurt flopped becuase u ddnt support it like you did support 7/11 so stop acting like ure better coz ure not. So what if bbhmm charts higher than ffs when u also did the same with your fave

  87. robyn March 27, 2015

    As for ciara’s fans I would just stay out of this cos ciara is a beyonce, rihanna, keri h, nicki and even tinashe lessor

  88. robyn March 27, 2015

    Beyonces fans*

  89. OMG Logic!!! March 27, 2015

    #1 or not, the song is straight up trash. Congratulations to Rih, but I cannot support such mediocrity.

  90. RICHIE_RICH March 27, 2015

    Congrats baby girl …. I’m still not sure if I’m feeling this one.

  91. WHO ME? WHO YOU, CHILE? HA HA HA! (QUEEN SLAYANNA) March 28, 2015

    Chile, all I gotta say is some h*** will learn the definition of seething come next week when she debuts on the hot 100. Kii if this is her 14th #1. She can make anything a hit.

  92. you wanna be on tv I bet March 28, 2015

    How in the heck did the song become number one on iTunes?
