Why are "Birthday Cake" and "Loveeeee Song" so low?! And "Rockstar 101" is higher than both? Someone give me a bucket.

At #35 it's Emimen his pop single The Monster, which features our very own Bad Girl Rihanna. With an average of 6.67 it's her 2nd worst feature, something that could be said for some, but not for The Monster in my opinion.

 

The song was a worldwide smash. It reached #1 in Australia, Brazil, Canada, Finland, France, Ireland, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Sweden, the UK, Switzerland and the US.

It also reached the top 10 in Flanders, Bulgaria, Greece, Denmark, Hungary, Turkey, Germany, Mexico, The Netherlands, Wallonia, Czech Republic, Italy, Austria and Spain. Which is basicly every country it charted in.

Slay a bit. Sadly even the massive amount of 10's couldn't save The Monster from flopping on its arse right here.

Next up is RiRi's collab with Queen of Hip-hop Nicki Minaj. It's obvious that I am not pleased by this #34. Should've been at least top 20. Atonement and d___, actions will be taken so watch your back.

 

Fly was released as the 8th and final single from Nicki Minaj's Pink Friday album and followed Nicki's first big hit worldwide Super Bass. The song peaked at #13 in New Zealand, #14 in Ireland, #16 in the UK, #18 in Australia and #19 in the US.

Cheers was the final single to be released from Rihanna's best era to date, Loud. It was released to keep RiRi on the radio, while she was preparing to release her next album Talk That Talk. It samples Avril Lavigne's I'm With You and is the ultimate relaxing song from Loud.

 

Cheers peaked insinde the top 10 in New Zealand, Australia, Canada and the US, while also reaching the top 20 in the UK, Ireland, and Slovakia.

Next up is Rihanna's heartfelt ballad, California King Bed at #31. It just missed out on a top 30 spot by 0.09 points, despite receiving a massive amount of 10's and 11's. Obviously because Chris and Dan are showing an immense lack of taste.

 

California King Bed reached #1 in Croatia, Poland and Slovakia (Stan a bit Eastern Europe) and top 10 in Czech Republic, Australia, Austria, Brazil, New Zealand, Luxembourg, Israel, Germany, the UK, Flanders, The Netherlands, Italy and Switzerland

HOW is 'Talk That Talk' that low? :o

 

The only bad thing is Jay-Z's contribution to it, one of the worst raps ever.

'LOUD' was a flawless era. Flawless.

The Monster, Talk That Talk AND Cheers (Drink to That) all out in one go :drama:

 

I often see Talk That Talk as the highlight of that era so it's a shame to see it so low. Glad to see the other two gone though, both fairly dull for me.

CKB forever underrated. :(

so basically all of her great / proper (or should i say plenty) urban singles fallin out like dominoes. WEAK

 

never understood why people hate you da one SO MUCH

 

You tell them, Ketalina fave!

CKB forever underrated. :(

This. So very much! Beautiful song!

California King Bed should be higher! :(

"Fly" followed by "Talk That Talk" followed by "Cheers (Drink To That)"! :(

At #35 is the 2nd David Guetta / Rihanna collab, the infectious Whos That Chick? which whilst sounding very generic is really good in my opinion! Just a lot of fun and a great dance song.

At #34 is the very successful at the time, Live Your Life, although I think it is largely forgotten these days in all honesty. Still, it is a great fun song with a great message underneath it all. The first time I really took notice of T.I. too, he actually does add to the track but of course Rihanna is the shining star of this song.

At #28 is Rihannas most recent single, and the last (I presume) off of her Unapologetic album. At first I thought it was just a random album track that did not need releasing, but since I have seen the video and performances of it, it has grown on me majorly! It is still far from her best, but a really powerful song nonetheless. I really adore the lyrics too, especially since learning it was written (or at least co-written) by RiRi herself and is about coping with depression apparently.

At #27 is the fourth and final single from Rated R. I always liked it, but never really loved it ... it was always a baffling single choice to me as well, considering it is what I thought one of the weaker album tracks. Fire Bomb should always have been released in place of this I think.

At #26 is how you really do promo singles. Wait Your Turn served as the promo single for Rated R, and almost made the Top 40 in the UK, I think it made #42 or something :(. A great song, and I really remembered as it was such a vast difference from her GGGB singles, it left people anticipating more! The video is really nice and arty too.

26. 'Wait Your Turn' >> Such a brilliant promo single that deserved a full release, it was THAT good. It's how you REALLY kick off a campaign! <<

27. 'Te Amo' >> Loved this the first time I heard it as a demo (back in oh eight I believe), but by the time the album came out, I was bored of it and also found it a baffling choice as a single over 'Fire Bomb' and 'The Last Song'! <<

28. 'What Now' >> Stunning song and was always a highlight of the 'Unapologetic' album for me. Surprised I didn't seem to give it a "10", but maybe I thought I gave too many out at that point, I don't know! :lol: <<

29. 'Live Your Life' >> An R&B/Hip-hop collaboration gone RIGHT. So, SO infectious and catchy! Great use of sample, also! <<

30. 'Who's That Chick?' >> For the generic dance song it is, it's good. Better than OG(ITW) anyway. <<
