I remember when I wrote something on how I never understood Rihanna’s appeal outside of her overrated looks way back during my Slap-Box days, and in return I got a shitload of flak from yokels talmbout how she is multi-talented and can singe my ear drums sing her ass off. I still wholeheartedly refuse to believe that, and this song – which was the audio equivalent of a prom night dumpster baby to me – is proof.
The beat > Jeezy’s verse > root canal by Dr. Giggles > Rihanna’s voice.
Missing Shake yet, people?
PREVIOUS: Rihanna x Young Jeezy x Saturday Night Live (Video)
Rihanna can’t sing at all I thought it was a well known fact.
I couldn’t agree more. this is another case of TotalLil Wayne but with a bigger budget behind it.
Puffy once said thay Total made money because they had a look that he could push, not because they were talented singers. Foreheads career is an excercise in marketing.
If you need more proof look at her recent Nokia performance. She sounds terrible.
I’ll third that – I still hear reverberations of “umbrella, brella, ella, lla, la” in my mind from time to time. And I don’t like it.
>> Missing Shake yet, people?
hahahahahaha
i am (no homo)
The shit that comes out my ass > young jeezy and this god aweful southern popularity
Rihanna’s Wait Is Over Remix with Joel Ortiz > Jeezys garbage verse
Young Jeezy the weezy feezy. Stupid nigger.
sup with the imagery? they are really trying to push something on us
damn meka you gotta post more. with descriptions like that i don’t just skip over stuff i have no interest in, i at least read what you write cause that shit is brilliant. your ramblings at dx were always dope and haters are just that, haters
Rihanna is a clear product of the machine. Then we have talented artists like The Dream who writes hit singles for himself and other artists.
i cant stand Yeezy but i like this song..
Ya man.. should get on that LukeOming DOT com…
Wholeheartedly cosign Mek’s opinion. Rihanna = overrated in both voice and look
hahaha
ROFL @ the previous comments. Preview of this video makes me wonder… So Run This Town had a military concept and now RiRi and Jeezy are doing a video together with suprise, a military concept about how hard they are… The best part of this song is the beat. SMH
How anyone thinks she’s more talented than CB is insane
er have any of you heard wait your turn? that is a good tune. she can sing. she just has a different voice u may not like. but she can sing. and why are u posting her music anyway. she professes to be a pop star not a hiphop artist. just happens shes black n is under jayz so the hiphop heads accept her. most tunes shes done have been dance, pop, reggae, so why the contention in this blog?
…and Mr Giggles operates a mean root canal!
“talented artists like The Dream” + and Young Jeezy praises in one post = kill yourself or time travel to circa 94
LMAO @ the dude w/ no ears… “london” …. cosign “realty” cosign 2 da fullest… just another I do what they tell me 2 do chick w/ no … hate 2 say no talent but at least when they do this they can sing ex: Beyonce even tho i can’t stand her…. honestly why do people say Rihanna is talented? what does she do? honestly she has a stylist so that’s not her style, she obviously can’t sing (not code for a unique voice), doesn’t dance, doesn’t write… i mean come on…. she really doesn’t even look that d*** good… she’s fine but nothing I would be pressed over… & wasn’t she a Reggae artist when she 1st came out w/ a tan??? now she’s bright as hell w/ a rapidly fading accent…
The Dream is talented. Easily one of the best R&B artists in the past decade. When you listen to his albums you can hear the influences of the past yet he manages to make his own. He’s a clear success based on his ghost writing alone.
@london gotta point doe. to put her on this site is an automatic fail cuz she a pop artist.
and yeahh seriously fall back on that dream hatin.cuz dude is one of the best songwriters in the game today.
aw and yeahh like yall niggas really think she aint taht fine..right.flauging ass niggas
haha im liking meka more and more. and if you think i need to say ‘no homo’ you have problems
Finally people who also think Rihanna is overrated
P.S.
since we like inequalities around these parts *ahem*
Amerie> Rihanna
i admit she can’t sing that well but..
ya’ll hating on rihanna acting like you wont smash. fuck outta here.
Funny Meka! Rihanna really does have a shitty voice when she’s not mixed down or autotuned up correctly,she can’t do shit live. Realtalk ,Lady Gaga’s voice blows Rihanna’s away, just actually listen to live shows to see the difference.
she still looks good though:)
