First out is Talk That Talk track Cockiness [Love It]. It was released in remix form with A$AP Rocky as a featured guest.

Released as the 6th song from Talk That Talk the song never charted anywhere noteable.

 

So Buzzjack, y'all have decided. Cockiness [Love It] is Rihanna's worst single to date.

At #46, it's one of Rihanna's most controversial remixes to date. Birthday Cake first served as a short track on Talk That Talk, but was later remixed to a full song featuring ex-boyfriend Chris Brown, which angered many fans. Rihanna was accused of being a terrible role-model for young girl, but Rihanna wouldn't be Rihanna if she didn't just went ahead and release it anyway.

 

The song peaked at #24 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified platinum by the RIAA.

Not doing much better is the Future assisted Loveeeeee Song, from Unapologetic. It was never officially released as a single, but it was released to Urban radio in the UK.

 

The song itself took off on the R&B/Hip-Hop chart, peaking at #14 there and reaching an overall peak of #55 in the US. Loveeeeee Song was well received by msot of the critis and received general acclaim. It was described as a touchy ballad, a standout track and critics complimented Rihanna's vocals.

The song reached the top 10 in Finland and New Zealand, along with top 20's in Slovakia, Ireland, Italy (in 2008) and the UK. The song also charted on the Hot Dance Club Songs at #1

Next up is one of my least favourite Rihanna tracks and one of the few I deleted off Itunes recently. The song was the final single from A Girl Like Me. Brak It Off debuted at #95 on the Billboard Hot 100, but quikcly rose to #52 in it's 2nd week and reached the top 10 in it's third. It peaked at #9 in it's fourtheenth week.

The 4th song released from Unapologetic is the 2nd out in this rate. Right Now ends up as Rihanna's 42nd best single. The generic dance track is a collab with David Guetta, who also produced smash single Who's That Chick, but failed to set the charts alight like her previous songs did.

 

It reached top 10 in Israel and Sout Korea, but failed to crack the top 20 anywhere else. It reached #36 in the UK, #28 in The Netherlands, #50 in the US and #52 in Ireland.

Despite gaining 5 9's and a 10, the last song for tonight If I Never See Your Face Again fails to reach the top 40. We are however slowly moving towards higher averages with IINSYFA gaining an average of 6.23.

 

The song featured on Maroon 5's It Won't Be Soon Before Long and Rihanna's Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded. It was originally released as a Maroon 5 only song but was later remixed with vocals from our very own RiRi.

 

The song failed to reach any top 10, but it did peak within the top 20 in The Netherlands, Australia, Canada, Italy and Ireland.

Pavel and Chris (until that 00 for Right Now WHAT) have a fantastic taste in Rihanna.

It's generic pap.

None are any great loss so far (and indeed most of them are pretty dire compared to what RiRi can normally put out, thank god Birthday Cake was so low) aside from If I Never See Your Face Again, which is properly brilliant. But then I can't think of any more average ones left to come so it might just be bottom of a pile of good which is fine.

That bottom 2 is HORRENDOUS. So glad they ended up where they did.

 

(fairly sure I gave Cockiness a 0, not a 1, not that it would've made much of a difference :kink:)

I had you down as a 0 on my excel sheet, just like Mr_Aly and John, but I mistyped in the post, fixed now :D
