Recommended Posts

ddd Rihanna fans won't like this, but I wish it was more restrained. I feel like she's oversinging it a bit, but regardless, I like the song.

This is simple and beautifully sung how could you not at least enjoy it a little bit? Maybe I’ve been just dying to hear her voice on something but I’m loving this.

10 years ago when WFL came out, half of ATRL hated it. It was too repetitive. They hated Diamonds. They hated Work. This woman has been polarizing her entire career, and this is nothing new. 

 

Say what you will about the song, but I think it did what it needed to for her return: It shows that her voice has matured, she's still artistically focused, and she hasn't abandoned music the way everyone thought. She was never going to please everyone. 

 

I love it though.

Amen!

The video is out :jonny:

Imagine downplaying the impact of Black Panther just because X- 

 

Regardless if it’s a visionary masterpiece to you, you alone could never speak for the impact it has had, specifically on Marvel fans/black people.

Wow, I wasn't expecting that. Do we think she's gonna top Spotify?

Posted

It's projected at 8.2 - 8.4m unfiltered streams in the first day. How many filltered streams she can get? 7.5m? I don't believe people plays that multiple times so Spotify won't remove a lot.

If she tops Spotify and YouTube, can she compete for the 1?

I think it's hard to expect "Work 2.0" when this song is written for the movie specifically and in honour of late actor. 

The song is beautiful and I love how Rihanna sounds here. The time will come for her to serve bangers when her own solo music drops.

Is the 8.2-8.4M combined with the instrumental or just the song itself? Thanks!

She definitely should have released her lead single prior to this… because this being advertised as a Rihanna comeback song is not the tea.

Vocal one only

Love the song, very sweet.. but Rihanna really can't sing, her voice is so one-dimensional and monotone ?

i’m disappointed to say the least. it’s a nice song but it doesn’t do anything for me, can’t see myself returning to this as it isn’t as melodic as her other ballads like stay or take a bow. i didn’t need an explicit banger but i needed something other than this, hope the lead/album campaign is coming soon to capitalize on what momentum she’s currently expending with this song

Posted

It's a beautiful song but I really hoped she was gonna release a single from a new album, and not a soundtrack. lol

Posted

This song has grown on me a lot since last night. It’s so beautiful. This song just confirms something I’ve always known, no artist can match Rih’s tone and ability to convey such emotion through song. 
 

Honestly I’m so glad she came back like this. Not for her, not for another hit, but to show her growth while shining the spotlight on someone who is missed by thousands.

My local Urban AC station has played this twice in the past 30 minutes :skull:
