The 100 Greatest Song Bridges of the 21st Century: Staff Picks
87. RIHANNA FEAT. JEEZY, "HARD"How It Starts: “Where them girls talking trash? Where them girls talking trash?” The Part You Definitely Remember: The way Rihanna repeats “Where they at? Where they at? Where they at?” every other line in the bridge is definitely her island-bred BadGyalRiRi coming out. Why It Works: The title “Hard” is pretty self-evident of how hard Rihanna’s braggadocious hip-hop anthem goes, but where you might find a hand-clapping section for a pop song or a foot-stomping portion for a rock anthem, this bridge holds the power to part the dance floor for a freestyle battle. -- HERAN MAMO
18. RIHANNA FEAT. DRAKE, "WHAT'S MY NAME?"
How It Starts: "You're so amazing, you took the time to figure me out"
The Part You Definitely Remember: We'd dare to say that the entire bridge of “What’s My Name?” is memorable: Not only does it lace heavy reggae beats with strobe synths, but it’s also the part where Rihanna goes all out and flaunts her high-pitched vocals.
Why It Works: The rest of "What's My Name" has RiRi singing as a girl who’s playing hard to get, despite the guy in the song being totally her type. But the bridge ultimately marks a turning point: After all the going back and forth, she's so amazed at the guy’s determination to completely sweep her off her feet that she gives in -- and we end up swooning as well. -- J.R.

This best bridges of all time list is random AF. If we're being fully honest, the bridge on California King Bed is far superior to both of these songs.

In terms of hitmaking, she's definitely the Madonna of her generation. She deserves all the success she has and more.

I don't wanna be greedy but if she didn't take so long with ANTI and now R9, she would probably be much higher on most lists. I know, I'm greedy, but imagine the amazing stats she could get if she had done another album or two by now.
When she hit #1 with "Diamonds" I really thought she was gonna overtake Mariah with ease in terms of #1 hits. Now? I still think she has a nice shot but it's more of a toss-up, specially with regards to the frequency of her music releases.

In terms of hitmaking, she's definitely the Madonna of her generation. She deserves all the success she has and more. She definitely is! There has been no other artist since Madonna to dominate on such a Global hitmaking scale. They’re the only two artists to see 100+ #1 singles around the world. In the U.S, she’s already the 10th biggest Hitmaker overall (Hot 100-All Time) and the 5th biggest Female Hitmaker, and she’s still so young. As per Chartmasters: “Barbadian superstar Rihanna has been the ultimate hit machine since she began her career in the mid 2000s. No matter what your age is, you know songs like Umbrella, Don’t Stop the Music and We Found Love. It’s hard to believe this woman is only 33 years old!” 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

Like...
She hasn’t dropped an LP since January 2016 and is sitting pretty in the top ten.
This is simply insane.

Yeah why is everything saying "music video" considering how many times that hasn't been the case? Was there actual confirmation it's a music video?
