The Rihanna Verdict

Posted By Kid Fury on Tuesday.October.20th.2009 in I Guess Chile, New Music, Yeah...Whatever.


So, Rihanna’s new single, “Russian Roulette”, has finally hit these Internet streets after weeks of top secret foolishness. The record is a very dark ballad about deadly games and tests — right in time for Halloween. I believe it’s all a metaphor for the ass-whoopings Chris was handing out to her, but what the hell do I know?

Anyway, the masses are having mixed feelings about the song. What is my opinion on it, you ask? Survey says:

That about sums it up. You can download and listen for yourself here.

Bitch needs to be singing to a damn psychiatrist. Singing about shooting herself or Chris is not going to help

I think her voice sounds better, maybe she got voice lessons. I still think Rhianna is dark-sided, something in the milk ain’t clean about ol’ girl.

I’ll give her points for not using the drama in her personal life (Side eyes to Mr. Raymond) cause Lord knows these other tricks would have JUMPED at the chance to hop on Oprah’s couch and use their personal life for publicity the second they have an album dropping (Side eyes to you Mrs. Knowles-Carter). Something tells me this bitch has some tricks up her sleeve. Her team is too strong to drop this as a single, (not that it’s a bad song, cause I’m actually feelin it. (DON’T JUDGE….it’s better than half the shit these other ho’s are puttin out ((side eyes to you Ciara,Cassie, Christina Milian, Tierror Marie)) and not have some sneaky shit in the works.

i don’t see ballads like that. give me a good 8 count to pop the pussy to. the bitch sounds like a screeching bat - no two ways around it - so I need a beat from her or it don’t make sense. meanwhile, that GIF is the nectar of life.

Ya’ll are playing. I don’t like to speak ill of Ri-Ri. She scares me to death. So I just nod along.

And I am surprised that she has not Jennifer Aniston-ed herself and been all over the news talking about the can of whoop-ass that was unleashed on her by Bow-Tie.

She did the most and released this song that could be about that situation.

It grew on me since yesterday. I like it, it’s unexpected. I’m really not seeing how this song is “about chris”. Even though everyone says they’re over it, ya’ll know you wanna hear what she has to say! If she doesn’t give people what they want, they’ll just make it up. She could be singing about grilled cheese sandwiches and people would say it was about chris. For some reason I don’t think she’ll even address him or the incident at all on this CD.

i actually like it, but this “the wait is ova” mess is making me slowly hate her. they make it sound like she’s Janet or Whitney or even MJ. that gif somes up my whole attitude towards this madness with a extra side of bitch please.

Ok so this whole dark side of things is not poppin nor is it cute, it is overdone and almost evil, come on russian Rlette not attractive and not what I personally want to hear. I think R is interesting but like a lot of women say the issue of her and the Chris Brown will never cease just like Ike n Tina, She has used the media for attention thats why her ace is never at home and hasnt taken a well needed break and she dresses like she’s given ass. I dont know her but I am not buying the album nor supporting her new “Evil” side cuz its not for me personally. Ne-YO stop writing songs that will actually be litsened to by teenage girls who want to be this young women. Suicide is not cute. Let me stop now, she pisses me off.

I’m like the only person who REALLY likes this song. Sads. I dig the dark shit though, maybe it is just me. I do think people are being too hard on her for this, her voice sounds like rediculously better on this song than it ever has, especially on a ballet (Haha). Does anyone remember that damn murderer song? Lets give Forhedda some props for getting with a voice coach and trying to do better. I did like her better when she was beaching it out with Sean Paul and Pon-ing the replay, but clearly the schtick works cause the bitch blew up after she chopped off her hair and starting humping umbrellas. I like the song, I think the video is gonna be totally shit though, I saw stills from it on that bitchy pine nuts website and it looks like Rihanna meets Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. I vote no.
