This was the second single off the Rated R album released just over 4 years ago. It was a top 10 hit on the HOT 100 and CHR/POP. It's probably my favorite Rihanna song.

I hated this when it first came out, but it grew on me after awhile. Still not one of my favorite Rihanna tracks.
I liked the Jump Smokers mix a lot.

One of my favorites. I remember singing "Where dem bloggers at, Where dem bloggers at, Where they at, where they at, where they at?" in 2011. That means I still love it and never got tired of the song.

This probably came out at the worst time LOL. I remember thinking this hard image was awkward and phony considering she was crying in her interviews instead. Much of Rated R in general was very forced and contrived ('Rockstar 101', 'Rude Boy') to me. Especially since she quickly jumped ship with a softer and more Pop image months later for the Loud album. I used this song for a few weeks and then, like with much of her music, I got tired of it and never played it again. I don't even know why I keep it on my iTunes actually

One of my favorite jams from her. I love when she goes Urban.

One of her more forgettable hits. It's just okay.

This is still a banger.
I think Rated R was her opus. To me it's her only album with considerable depth and artistic development, even though GGGB and Talk That Talk come close.

This one has aged perfectly with me. I went through a period where I was indifferent towards it, loved it, hated it, dealt with it, and now it's become one of my favorite Rihanna singles.

I love this one. Not sure if I would consider it one of my favorites though.

This was the song that made me a fan. I bumped the shit out of this in 2009.

I like it hard but not this hard. its okay song nothing memorable or career defining or anything of that nature. "Young" Jeezy isnt my cup of tea with his groans outside of his first ever song and debut album.

I liked it then, and it's okay now but I would never go out of the way to listen to it. Hot video tbh.

This is one of my favorite singles from her, as forced and try-hard as it is. Easily my favorite single off of Rated R (most of which hasn't really held up that great imo).

I totally believed her on this track. She went through a lot of shit at the time and basically told everyone to fuck off.

It definitely fits the theme of Rated R, this is so much better than B**** Betta Have My Money.
I do love the "aw ya ya ya" part

Still love it... I just LOVE her swag on the song and the lyrics slay me. It's just so damn catchy and aggressive.

All these years I thought she was saying “where my black girls at where my black girls at?”

This is probably her most forgotten hit but the video is still great.

At the time, I loved this so much. Literally on repeat. Now, I don’t care for it.
