Looks like this is the one pop radio is getting behind?

Gotta say this video got me going. I can see why many/most Pulse posters would feel nothing from it though... That nip piercing!

I heard this on the radio on a local Rythmic radio station here in Boston 2 nights ago. It finally clicked and I get why many like it. I used to think it was just a dreary bore when comparing it to "Work" and some of her previous work. It's not at all. It's still giving me the Rih Rih I want. lol

I can hear some 90s vibe from this song, it's one of the most-pop leaning songs from Anti...

Is Rih gonna show her titties in every video this era? According to set pics from Needed Me, yes. Anti-bra. :)

The titties are the replacement of the Braille which she ditched for the 2016 single covers. One second she's consistent suddenly the Braille are tits. :'(

hmm....down to #93 on iTunes. Not a good sign for this hitting #1, or even the Top 10 at this point.

Saw the video and that was really boring. Doesn't fit the song at all, which is one of the best of the album.
Still rooting for this song to become a hit, but I don't understand why they did a double release. I believe they got cocky after Work became huge but it'll backfire.

hmm....down to #93 on iTunes. Not a good sign for this hitting #1, or even the Top 10 at this point. Work is still too huge in the US, she could've waited at least a month until releasing this. However, a quick single rollout has always been a hallmark of a Rihanna era. So far, only the UK, and Australia to a certain extent, seem to be behind this as a single. On the other hand, this song's digital performance so far (it's actually out of the Top100 on US iTunes right now) could just mean that the song needs rising airplay and streaming so more people can buy it. It's not a lead single which can rise more easily thanks to the hype.

This is a fantastic song (and a career highlight for Rih), but it was never going to hit #1.
Releasing Needed Me at the same time killed any chance it had to be a top ten, but regardless of that fact it would have never done big numbers. Just doesn't seem like the type of song that resonates with the public.

I think it can go Top 10? But Top 20 is the likely outcome.

I'm assuming no Z100 add? The rest of the adds will not be reported until tomorrow, so we can still get. Still, KIIS is already on board, it's lit!

I can't believe this is not doing better. It's one of those songs whose quality should not be a matter of subjectiveness and thus should not be questioned; it's literally a perfect song from start to finish that sounds nothing like anything that has ever been done by a major pop diva. smh I hate the world.

Was it even announced as a single a week ago? It's going to take awhile if it were to be a hit
