I’ll say it now I didn’t agree with the round 3 result!!

 

It was the closest and most exciting poll to date which seen several ties and then more than one album lead the poll throughout the last two days.

 

However at the time of closing and with just 1 vote in it we say goodbye to Unapologetic which becomes the third album eliminated.

Both Talk that Talk and ANTI almost went in round 3. Unapologetic lead with 6 votes whilst, Talk that Talk had 5 votes and ANTI 4! A nail biting round indeed.

 

Unapologetic was a historic album for Rih! It was her first ever album to top the charts in the US showing that 7 is a lucky number. It also managed to top the UK charts too becoming her third consecutive chart topper and her fourth overall. It’s her most recent chart topper in the UK albums chart.

 

The album contained two gigantic smashes in the form of the US and UK #1 Diamonds which was penned by Sia and also homes her signature ballad Stay with featured Mikky Ekko who since this track was pushed I haven’t heard of since!

 

Eminem, Future, David Guetta and controversially Chris Brown all feature on this album too.

 

For me this is perhaps in my top 3 Rihanna albums and definitely deserved better. For an album recorded in such a short space of time it shows real growth tbh. Some of the album tracks such as Love Without Tragedy / Mother Mary are fantastic and the highs on this album are amongst her all time best for me! I often see posts with people who really don’t like this as an album at all though so I’m not shocked to see it go!

 

However round 4 is now open! Keeping this poll open until Saturday evening closing at around 5/6 pm.

 

Results so far

 

Round 1: 80% of 16 votes - Music Of The Sun

Round 2: 76.47% of 17 votes - A Girl Like Me

Round 3: 35.29% of 17 votes - Unapologetic

Anti for me.

 

I just don't go back to many of the songs from it compared to the other albums. I only really liked Work, Kiss It Better, Same Ol' Mistakes and Consideration at the time of release and have tired of half of them now.

Great commentary Jordan, I definitely agree with you that Unapologetic deserves so more recognition. It has so many underrated gems like Get Over With, Love Without Tragedy/Mother Mary, Lov7 Song, What Now etc. I'm sad that its gone :(.

 

I voted for GGGB, although it contains some of Rih's biggest songs and is a great album and era in general, I don't go back to it as much as the other albums listed.

Loud

Loud for me as well. By far her most overrated album.

I’ve (again) went for Talk That Talk.

 

I just happen to like everything else more. Drunk On Love remains one of her best ever album tracks for me but the likes of You Da One, Talk that Talk, Cockiness, Birthday Cake, Red Lipstick and Do Ya Thang are all skip worthy for me.

 

 

Voted for ANTI thinking it was "favourite" and not least. :wacko:

 

I would've voted TTT otherwise

I’ll change your vote :)

TTT by FARRR

 

The other 4 are stellar.

 

I like TTT more than the other albums that got eliminated, but there's quite a big gap in quality from the other 4 it's up against and this for me.

I’ll change your vote :)

 

Thank you!!

Talk That Talk, easily

Definitely TTT

Again TTT for me. There's just too much filler. GGGB to go next x

Good Girl Gone Bad for me oop-

Talk That Talk
