Pretty much. Which is why these overreactions make no sense to me.
 

She’s preforming at the damn Super Bowl for Christ sake at the end of the day she’s Rihanna ppl will still tune into her album when it drops regardless. 

!!!

 

Like people think this soundtrack single is a dud so all hype for her is gone.

I don't post here often at all, but I had to come back for this! I have not been able to stop replaying this. It really is heavenly.

 

Also, I absolutely love how polarizing this already is; it just proves again that Rihanna continues to take risks, never plays it safe, and continues to surprise us after almost 2 decades! If any of you feel demoralized from the trolls, just go to youtube and look up reaction videos - people are living for it. And it's way more exciting to see those responses than some of the written ones here.

 

Who knows if this will be commercially successful, but I'm honestly happy that her voice has matured, she continues to focus on the artistry, and she gave us something powerful. That's ultimately what I wanted from her anyway. The bops will come in the future.

this 100%

Yes i did this on TikTok and it’s just *chef’s kiss*

Please tune out the negativity. It’s not necessary . They want her to flop to feel better about their faves.  The song is the song nothing will change. She’s releasing music again. Not everybody is going to like it what’s most important is that she’s putting music out again. That’s a big step for her especially being away for so long. 

[TalkThatTalk]

is she pregnant in the music video?

I like the song, but I'm still baffled that this is her much hyped comeback after 7 year hiatus 

What the hell are they thinking...

This is not her real comeback.. it's a song from a soundtrack and a tribute to the actor who died. Wait for her real Lead single and the new album closer to the superbowl date.

No she's only a few months postpartum and the video was likely shot about a month ago

All the official videos on youtube for the song have amassed almost 7 million views so far (without accounting for the music video 'cause the views are still stuck, but it's at ≈130k likes so it's probably at around 1M views). 

[RihRihGirrrl]

The fact that I wasn't planning to watch Wakanda Forever on opening weekend but now it's a MUST 

[Invader]

@zzmyth I need you to post regular chart updates. I want this to go top three multi weeks to shut the haters up 

[RockStarShit101]

love the music video

i just like how the song is connecting with the GP after reading the comment section on YT

[RihRihGirrrl]

I haven't heard or read a single negative reaction to this song outside of this board lol

that's fine, i guess

i am old enough to remember the release week of take a bow, russian roulette, only girl, we found love, diamonds, fourfiveseconds, towards the sun, and work... and they all received a negative reaction from the GP/fans

eh, it's that serious at the end of the day, so just ignore them, sis

[IsidoraMarí]

Rihanna is about to take over radio with a lullaby... Her power is insane.

[BajanBeauty]

I never considered Rih to care about EGOT like other pop girls but all this Oscar talk from critics has me excited not gonna lie. (1st time she’s strategically attached herself to a blockbuster movie)
- I mean the absolute kiiii if she winds up getting noms for Lift me Up and Emmy nom: Savage X Fenty, Super Bowl, or her documentary

But I can't see her trying to position herself for a Tony

Oh yeah. That’s literally never happening. 
- I mean I don’t think we’ll ever get Oscar talk surrounding her again 

 

A possible EGO - always setting trends

Unless there's a Eartha Kitt Musical, or Rihanna musical. She could pull it off if she was interested.

I'm so sorry that some of the navy didn't like the song.
