If they would've just done Chris' song and left Birthday Cake alone, it wouldn't've been that big of a problem. I guess that's what they wanted, tho.

Whoops.

Maybe now we can be rid of these talentless 'musicians'

The real backlash will happen if they announce that they're back together. Still the BC remix still makes me sick.

I loved Rihanna, but you have to be a pretty delusional fan to defend her at this point.

Yet, they both remain unpressed.

Don't even joke about that. I will legit pull a Disturbia x1,000 in this bitch if that even comes close to happening.

Pretty much!!

All these reviews don't mean ****. They are not "reviewing" the song, they are "reviewing" the pairing of Chris Brown and Rihanna.
So really this means nothing to me or the general public.
Both songs have been receiving great impact from all the people around me.
Radio stations are spinning both songs, Twitter is still buzzing over both songs.

I liken the line from Rihanna, "I love you, baby", as that 'announcement'. And we'll see them holding hands nonchalantly soon.

I think what's shocking is the message of the song
Girl I wanna f*** you right now, been a long time I’ve been missing your body

[Maelstrom]

Navy people comparing K-Fed to Chris Brown need some perspective. K-Fed isn't evil - he's just a bum.

I wouldn't even call a few selective negative reviewers "the media". The real media, the one that actually has influence, is reporting this neutrally. Noone's really crying over it besides ATRL and the like.

Yeah, I just read the write up in the NYT, and it was very fair and balanced, even praising the BC remix as the superior of the two.

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/02/22/ar...songs.html?hpw

From the NYT:

"If the songs were dull or disposable, they’d still be important, but they might matter less. But they’re both good, “Birthday Cake” very much so. The quality matters because they’re likely to lodge themselves in the public consciousness and seep onto radio playlists: this mess won’t just melt into the air."
