'Jump' is amazing. That's how far I've got so far ... but I'm much more impressed by it than I was with 'Talk That Talk' so far.

Stay MUST be released, also loving Jump, Right Now, What Now, Pour It Up and Love Without Tragedy / Mother Mary.
A rather good album, mixed bag of different sounds, think most are growers! |

Well this is encouraging so far. I'll be listening to the album on Monday hopefully (don't do leaks most of the time and not with RiRi) but it sounds like there's a lot of excellent stuff to look forward to.

I DUNNO. Not feeling any tracks (other than Diamonds) yet. But then again I'm only halfway through the album.

SO hate the way they pronounce 'business' in 'Nobodys Business'.
 Such a bad track too. DELETEEEE

'Diamonds' has been remixed with a verse from Kanye!

'Half Of Me' (the Emeli Sande penned track) has now leaked. It's nice!

Stay is a great song, the rest of the album is as crap as the last one though. Really enjoyed her SNL performance, was intimate and exposed like Adele at the Brits.

A better effort than Talk That Talk for sure. Don't quite get the love for 'Stay'. 'What Now' is my favourite but I also love 'Jump', 'Nobodys Business' & 'Love Without Tragedy/Mother Mary'.

First listen rate...
07.5 Phresh Out The Runaway (getting Diva by Beyonce teas but this is so much better) 10 Diamonds 06 Numb (not awful but it's quite nothingy) 08 Pour It Up 04 Loveeeeee Song 09 Jump 08.5 Right Now 09 What Now 11 Stay (WOAH. Bloody amazing, absolutely beautiful! It really needs to be released with a big performance and it will honestly be huge) 08.5 Nobody's Business (quite weird, different to what I expected but it's quite disco funky and I really like it!) 09.5 Love Without Tragedy/Mother Mary 03 Get It Over With 08 No Love Allowed 08 Lost In Paradise Very strong, I think it's probably stronger than TTT for me right now. |

My album review:
2.0 Fresh Off The Runaway - Absolutely diabolical. I get the 'Diva' comparisons but this is MUCH worse than even that. One the worst songs she has ever done. 9.0 Diamonds - A great lead single again from her, but it does seem slightly out of place sat between 'Fresh Off The Runaway' and 'Numb' in the context of the album. 6.5 Numb - Nice backing track to this but it just seems as if she just couldn't be bothered writing any lyrics and the bits when she actually does sing are very repetitive. Eminem's verse is good though. 5.0 Pour It Up - Hard to say anything about this one. It's not bad but not very memorable at all, the melody a little bland but it might grow on me. 4.0 Loveeeeeee Song - Firstly, the title is horrific. The song isn't quite as bad as the title, but still poor. Future doesn't need to be on there and it is even duller than PIU. 3.0 Jump - I am so disappointed with this, it has so much potential, especially in the build up section but is completely ruined by THAT breakdown. I am surprised Kanye ever agreed to be a part of this. Horrible. 4.5 Right Now - This is exactly like 'Jump' for me. The melody has potential to be decent but the breakdown instrumental section ruins it yet again. This isn't quite as bad as Jump but that isn't saying much. 5.0 What Now - This is alright, her vocals in the build up to the chorus are nice but the chorus seems very messy and a bit nothingy - just her holding out notes to try and pass it off as a melody. 8.5 Stay - Thank god for this coming along mid album. This is actually rather lovely, both of their vocals are wonderful, especially RiRi's and the melody is nice too. WOO. 5.0 Nobody's Business - Nice to hear something more funky but the lyrics between the two of them and the pronunciation of the title are both uncomfortable and irritating. Nothing special anyway. 9.0 Love Without Tragedy / Mother Mary - Love this. Both sides of it are very catchy and the production is much better than most of the other tracks. So glad this is on here. 4.0 Get It Over With - Bland bland bland. I mean, it is nice to down the tempo slightly and all, but there is just nothing to it at all. Can't see me ever choosing to re-listen to it. 7.5 No Love Allowed - Love her accent here and I like the production too. It does appear to be trying to be 'Man Down' part 2 though and it's nowhere as good as that but is still one of the strongest. 8.0 Lost In Paradise - This has grown on me a lot already. I think the chorus is great, but I find the production change between the chorus and the verses slightly jarring. One of my favourites though. 8.0 Half Of Me - Rihanna needs her ears tested if this is not deemed good enough to take a place on the main album, especially with some of the garbage on there. This is really nice and I can see it growing on me even more. Thank god for the songs towards the end of the album, that's all I can say really. The first half, apart from 'Diamonds' (and possibly 'Numb') is utterly atrocious and even in the latter half there are some poor songs too. I stand by what I said a few weeks ago, she really does need to take a break now and come up with something much better than this, because each year her efforts are getting worse, and if she continues like this, I am not sure I can even bear to hear what she comes up with next November.

because there isn't anything to it! Well that's why I hate it.
Eminem's verse isn't even good.

01.0 Fresh Off The Runaway (What an AWFUL way to start of the album)
11.0 Diamonds 04.0 Numb (Incredibly disappointed, I expected a massive pop song again) 03.0 Pour It Up (Not really impressed with the album at the moment) 05.0 Loveeeeee Song (It's okay but the autotune really grates at me) 08.0 Jump (Can see this being an ultimate grower) 10.0 Right Now (Has this been confirmed as single 2? It's FANTASTIC) 07.5 What Now (Decent ballad, NOTHING will ever be as good as Unfaithful though. The chorus is a bit messy but the verses are really good) 09.5 Stay (Ohhh, this is FANTASTIC) 07.0 Nobody's Business (Oh God, I agree with Pavel. It's annoying the way they say Business. I expected this track to be much, much better. 08.0 Love Without Tragedy Mother 07.0 Get Over It 06.5 No Love Allowed 07.5 Love In Paradise 10.0 Half Of Me (THIS IS AMAZING) |

The first five tracks (minus "Diamonds") are awful. I was getting worried, then it picked up with "Jump", peaked with "Stay" until "Love Without Tragedy / Mother Mary", and remained good until the end. Overall it's much better than Talk That Talk, and it has potential to be her best album to-date with time

I haven't listened to it all yet but I like what I've heard so far. I really love 'Love Without Tragedy / Mother Mary' so much though. Will have to go away and listen and then do a RATE.
