That made it funny that it was even brought up in the first place. It was made even funnier by the fact that the Rihanna fans bragging about it all disappeared as soon as it was pointed out Who literally cares when the member I quoted tried to discredit that Rihanna record because it was broken in South Africa? If it's only Gaga as well that's been there too then that says more about international acts than it does the country. Gaga and Rihanna deciding not to neglect markets that aren't in the Western Hemisphere is actually something to be lauded and not the drag you think it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, Rude Boy's parent album did so terribly that her label threw her back in the studio to record some Stargate dance pop leftovers because dance pop was the dominant genre at the time She then went on to release multiple dance pop singles and left that sound to rot because dance was the dominant pop trend Edited August 8, 2023 by Raspberries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
