The only Rihanna / Eminem collab that I enjoy is 'Numb', the other two are trash!

 

45S should, of course, be nowhere near the bottom but the average is not THAT bad. 'Right Now' also deserved better. Nice trashy bop.

 

I hope 'Shut Up and Drive' will be out soon as it is the definite low-point of her career (actually the whole GGGB era is, looking back, stale and dated.. aside from 'Umbrella').

 

My favourite Rihanna/Eminem collab has to be LTWYL Part II. But I guess that wasn't really a single.

 

And no at you slating GGGB. :( I agree that the songs do sound a bit dated these days, but I will always have a soft spot for SUAD and DSTM. Umbrella is still grand 9 years on. :wub:

I'm delighted 45S is out so soon, it's inexcusably vile.

38. You Da One // 5.81

36. Hate That I Love You // 6.21

Highest score: 10 (Jonjo, River Lea)

'You Da One' is at #38 and was massively overshadowed at its time of release from previous monster hit single 'We Found Love', it's the final song in the countdown to have an average below 6. Whilst Nicki Minaj's modest hit 'Fly' just manages to scrap that average score, with an impressive four 10 scores. And at #36 we lose the first Good Girl Gone Bad single, with Rihanna's Ne-Yo collaboration 'Hate That I Love You'. None of these songs managed to make the UK top 10, although 'Hate That I Love You' did chart at #7 in the States.

HTILY is forever under appreciated </3 Such a great song from them both. :wub:

All three pretty decent but glad they are out in favour of her better singles.

How was 'You Da One' even chosen as the second single? 'Where Have You Been' was the clear follow-up to WFL.

 

HTILY is a nice little song but that's it really.

 

So glad 'Fly' is out. I never really got it.

'Fly' is dreadful. Why is it that Rihanna and Nicki can't do a decent collab? 'Raining Men' is shit too!

I like Fly but yeah I think the two could do well collaborating again with a more Rude Boy type sound.

FourFiveSeconds out already? What on earth, you people are awful. Barely care for anything else out, I do find Hate That I Love You rather sweet and If I Never See Your Face Again is rather fun but as far as Rihanna singles go, that's about right for them. FourFiveSeconds bottom 3 is ridiculous though.

No huge shocks so far, but 'Monster' deserves better, really like that one and isn't overexposed like 'LTWYL' is. 'FFS' is another surprise for me, considering how massive it was, it's not one of my faves, but bottom 3 come on, wow I guess it really is that polarizing.

 

'We Ride', glad that's last, it isn't very good and odd choice for a single, considering she had 'Kisses Don't Lie' and 'Break It Off' the latter was released in USA, but if the latter got a UK release, then it definitely would have been a smash. 'Right Now' was another pointless release, no effort was put into it, for a start it's very generic and don't think anyone knew it was released as it made no impact upon release, apart from downloads upon the album's release.

 

'You Da One', again this was another pointless release, with no hype considering 'WFL' was still everywhere at the time, even the video was very generic and weak. But really like 'Hate That I Love You' find it very underrated, but not surprised by it's position here, considering how many massive brilliant tunes she's had. Quite a shame that this is forgotten now from the 'GGGB' era along with 'If I Never See Your Face Again', which is also long but a faded memory from her entire back catalogue.

'You Da One' is an abomination.

I'm not the biggest fan of YDO but I wouldn't call the video generic. I think it is one of her most visually original videos to date.

 

35. If It's Lovin' That You Want // 6.27

Highest score: 10 (River Lea)

Lowest score: 3 (Mackenzie, HausofKubrick)

 

34. Cheers (Drink To That) // 6.54

Highest score: 10 (JakeWild, Mike Sugafan)

Lowest score: 0 (Chez Wombat)

 

33. California King Bed // 6.59

Highest score: 10 (Liam, Iz, Ultraviolence, Jonjo, Cody)

Lowest score: -1 (152chris, Jade)

I really like all three of those. IILTYW feels very basic by Rihanna's standard and she obviously evolved loads since then, but I've always enjoyed it, it's the first song I ever heard by Rihanna too.

 

'California King Bed' is one of Rihanna's best ballads for me (which isn't saying much) and I've always found 'Cheers' is a jam!

Gosh, I really did forget how much IILTYW is a jam (though I think I scored it highly anyway)

Three decent tracks, the chorus in CKB is great but the verses are a bit meh. IILTYW is ok for her older era but the rest of her discog >>>>>

 

Oh and Cheers is a fun track and it's different, but still not the higher standard of her other songs.

Oh yes my two worst songs by her out already *.* Bai 'California King Bed' and 'Right Now' - both awful.

 

'Fly' is way too low. :(

All 3 don't deserve to be out yet :(

California King Bed shouldn't be out so soon. I thought it was well loved. :cry:

Sorry for the delay with these results!

 

32. Bitch Better Have My Money // 6.71

Highest score: 11 (Cremey)

Lowest score: 0 (mr_pmt)

 

31. What Now // 6.73

Highest score: 10 (AdamAloud, Ultraviolence, JakeWild)

Lowest score: 2 (RobSpears, Scene, Cremey, Cucumberella)

 

Just missing out on the top 30 we have 'Bitch Better Have My Money' a stand-alone single from 2015, originally intended for 'ANTI'. The song wasn't a big chart hit, but is arguably one of Rihanna's more well known songs along with an absolutely fantastic video. Why is 'What Now' so high? Well actually I don't think it's high enough personally but again it wasn't one of her best charting/well remembered songs.
