I'm pretty sure they're taking about that quote where supposedly Pharrell said that Rihanna, and I think Shakira, are apart of the CRS (can't really sing) category or something along those lines. Funny that he is working with both of them this year.

Are we talking about the same Rihanna? Because the Rihanna we are talking about will come back big again. Just watch it Many people gonna be suprised because lady gaga is filling her spot and she is the new pop princess now so when rihanna come back people gonna be more interested in lady gaga more. Rihanna only reach this far because of her clothes and her style but lady gaga has that and she a bigger style icon now!!

Funny that he is working with both of them this year. CRS stands for Child Rebel Soldier which is Pharrell, Kanye and Lupe. And this is the quote: It was all a joke since he had already worked with Ciara previously on The Evolution and was already in talks to work with Rihanna since her 2nd album and Shakira aswell.

Yeah Pharell was joking, but he said something that all 3 have gotten said about them throughout their careers lol. I'm a huge Pharell fan but it wasn't the right thing to say in the position that he's in. He can't sing.

I'm not sure why Rihanna catches so much flack, I think she's a pretty good singer.

I saw her show on TV (she was in Canada) and she sounded and performed very well IMO. A big improvement over her past performances.

Rihanna's voice is not bad. It just needs work. well everyone has their personal opinions i personally thinks shes an awesome singer her voice is very unique and is her. maybe a few vocal lessons would be cool but she keeps improving more and more the more she sings live she proved that 2 many people during the glow in the dark tour her vocals were amazing she actually has an awesome range 2 3.0 octaves which is way more than average compared to other female artists

It's actually fairly average. Most female artists out there have about a 3 octave range or more. Furthermore, you can have range and be a horrible singer (Jessica Simpson). Range means next to nothing if you cannot use it properly. Rihanna will continue to improve, but atm she's fairly decent.

Rihanna is a pretty good singer. She just isn't the classic standard of what most people expect from a good singer like someone who belts or has a powerful voice like Christina Aguilera but her voice is unique and she knows how to use it to make her songs sound great.
This is a good example, especially in the last minute
A lot of her improvement has to do with her confidence now as well.
I think some people just hate the tone of her voice...but that same tone is what sets her apart from all the other generic sounding pop and R&B starlets.

Haha, I agree. Shakira is the perfect example of what I was saying, that some people may be annoyed by her voice and might say she can't sing because she isn't what many typically consider as a good singer. Shakira's voice does sound manly and warbly but it works for a lot of her songs because she knows how to use it to sound great and it gives her a unique edge. Katy Perry might be another example.

SOURCE: Rihanna and Chris Brown Will Be Together at Tonight's NBA GameAt Game 4 of the NBA Finals in Orlando on Thursday night, the real action will take place in the stands: Rihanna and Chris Brown will be there together, according to a source. "They requested to sit together" at the matchup featuring the Los Angeles Lakers vs. the Orlando Magic, says the source. Before the game, Rihanna was spotted at a nearby T.G.I. Friday's. The outing comes just two days after Rihanna, 21, was subpoenaed to appear in court to testify in the assault case against Brown, 20, and a day after she was out with Aubrey "Drake" Griffin, the Canadian rapper to whom she's been linked. The couple, whose relationship has been on-again-off-again since Brown allegedly attacked Rihanna in February, were last known to be together in April in Los Angeles. Reps for the NBA and the singers had no comment. www.people.com/people/article/0,,20284788,00.html

lol at this pseudo relationship with Drake. I will not give into the propaganda. Too smart for the lies. This is obviously a stunt to farther his career and put her back in a positive light. Attention whores annoy me. And don't say it is not a stunt because it is. Rihanna and co. knew that rekindling her relationship with Chris wouldn't sit well so they told her to break it off. Now she is with Drake, who is relatively new...and will fuck around with some groupie and diss her on a mixtape. lol Hell, he was just with Tayana.

Because there was this youtube video that said she had a 5.0 octave range, LOL. I'm assuming it's a 2.0.. no more than a 2.5. Most of her songs don't go above 1.5 anyway.
