I'm calling this being #1 on iTunes in about 3 hours. I'm surprised this didn't get #1 yet from the music video hype

Singles don't always make a better artist. Drake doesn't always cater to pop the way Rihanna does. Rihanna always caters to pop??? What about Birthday Cake, Man Down, Raining Men, Talk That Talk, Hard, Bitch Betta Have My Money etc? And how many of those are #1 hits? Which was my point.

The best part of the song is Drake, tbh, but to say that Rihanna needs anyone to get a #1 is crazy. Her album had a pretty messy release and still went #1. Of course her album would go #1 lol. And I never said Rihanna needs anyone to get a #1. No one would be dumb to believe that based on her incredible record. But this song solo probably would not have been a #1. Albums getting #1 doesn't automatically make it a good album either or even popular. Same thing as a new movie that opens really big and then fades away in a couple weeks. Again I'm not against Rihanna at all and her album is incredible but let's speak about this correctly

2 videos, I'm SLAYED! I want to be able to dance like that, lmao. Love the club/basement scene in the first video and the intimacy between them in the 2nd. Hopefully they're uploaded separately.

LOVE the Jamaican basement video, totally fits the vibe. The second video was alright... Too much just standing there and not enough moving for a song like this. If I have any complaint about the Jamaican video is that I needed her to REALLY throw that ass in a circle the way that I wanted.

Ehh OK video but the song sounds more "fuller" here. Should easily go #1 now.

The 2nd video is nothing more than social media bait and it will work highly in their favor. Prefer X's version though. That wine in front of the mirror in the beginning was everything.

I prefer the 2nd video mostly because of her looks, but the 1st one fits the song more.
Can they get married and have beautiful babies already?

The video is...a video. There's really not much to say about it other than the fact they're very pretty, but that should be enough.
They should upload them separately though - double the views and a lot of people won't stick around for 7 minutes of multiple viewing.

I personally like the second more (or tied for the same?) but that first video LOOKS like a video for a #1 song. I think it's going to win many people over who are still on the fence.
Come to think of it, the first video is like a millennial, island version of Janet's "That's The Way Love Goes." A steamy party and the singer looking like a model/superstar.

I love the fun vibe of the first vid and the sensual and bright vibe of the 2nd. They apparently didnt break the budget either, each vid looks about $20. J/K love you Rih

This may actually stay at #1 on the Hot 100 for quite a long time. I'm not noticing any MAJOR threats.

Does anyone know of anything on the horizon - Bruno Mars maybe? I know Beyonce is rumored, but I don't think it'll be in the form of a single song.

I could see that Lukas Graham song making a run for it if it's used on television sometime soon. I think Zayn's second single is going to be a big one but is still a while away. Bieber's fourth single could do it, especially if it's "Company" or "The Feeling," but again quite far away. And who even knows what's going on with Adele. Drake. But I don't know if he'll be able do it or not. Let's certainly hope not

Why didn't they upload the two videos separately? I'm sure watching the whole thing will count as one stream. :x
Speaking of the video, it's everything, especially the first one. Riri showing boobies was a pleasant surprise in the second and her look was on point. #queenofedge
