Who can slay almost any genre of music and have it SLAY the charts?
:ohwow:
Rihanna
I can't even think of another reggae/soca/culture influenced artist that is so mainstream and massive.
Has there ever been a female artist like her?
:letsmessfag:
Lumidee
Allure
Rih
eh, no telling. there are many versatile artists out there
Mainstream and otherwise, so there's no way for me to pick one. What's the criteria here?

BOYYYYYYYYYY
Angie Stone
And really it's about more than making it a hit or not
It's about whether or not you're convincing singing that genre
I think Jazmine could sing over some country mess and be convincing. May not be a hit but that doesn't mean she isn't versatile.
Rih can do pop ballads, dance chunes, electric beats, traps beats, reggae beats, rock beats
She's amazing
And faggots The reason I said Mo is because she does a lot different sounds too
Pop Ballads like for You I will
R&B ballads like Love All Over
Old School beats like ETM
Trap/Club records like Do Me Like That and Beat Drop
Pop tunes like Taxi
Gospel records like Searching, Bigger than You and I, &'James Fortunes song
Country style songs like I Miss Music
She has potential for sure but I agree she been on the same nigga shit since '03

Well, Rih is convincing and she slays the charts at the same time.
No one side-eyes her as she skips from genre to genre.
It's just seamless.

i understand what u mean.
But the point was, who can switch up their "FLOW"/"GROOVE" and SLAY with it on the charts? It's not a common thing to get away with. The public is very "you belong in this box".
Like, can you hear Taylor Swift singing "WORK"?
:dead:
But I could hear Rihanna slaying "We are never getting back together" and even "Bad blood".
:dead:
Even if it is "just hopping on a beat" there are sounds and genres that dont and WONT translate well for certain artists and it will definitely come across forced and not resonate with the public. I can think of one bitch that definitely seamlessly does that "beat jumping" very well and its COMPLETELY believable lolz

The point is... who can genre hop, seamlessly... BEATs are apart of a damn genre, so this "beat hopping" stuff is apart of it.
What does Mary have to do with anything?
Rihanna has always been mostly Pop until Talk That Talk. Of course she can sing a Pop song.

I don't know about Lemonade. I think the production has some degree of versatility, but I don't think the vocal interpretation was all that versatile.

Ok. I believe the MUSIC, or the THE BEAT is apart of a genre. Typical elements/sounds that make up a genre.
What is your definition of versatile?
So I have a better understanding of where you're coming from.

Dawn over the years has learned to pull of an abundance of different sounds. I exalt her for that.
From hip hop, to bubblegum pop, southern Soul and indie electronica, sis is dedicated and executes very well.

Not so much the genre of a song...

The same reason why her latest POP song debuted in the TOP 10 after "WORK" spent 9 weeks at #1. Hits more than misses. But she still slays them.
And Rih's main genres will always dominate her hits. That goes without saying. No artist that we've mentioned in here that are versatile has had countless hits for their "other genres they dapple in", but they can SLAY THEM and giving the focus and attention, go all the way. Rih has slayed reggae-pop-dance-hiphop-r&b, etc.
The same way Bey can be versatile on an album, that didn't produce hits from that versatility (yet), and still be counted/respected.
Also... What is your definition of versatile? You didn't answer it.

She's been doing records like We Found Love since her 3rd album (Don't Stop The Music & half of GGGB falls under the same category)
Maybe 4,5 seconds, but without Paul McCartney on it would you consider it versatile?
The foundation of all her music is pretty much Pop with some Urban influences. She dibbles and dabbles but she's never abandoned her foundation completely and fully tackled another genre.

Keep in mind, being versatile to me is being able to SELL (convincingly) that particular song/beat/music/lyric/groove,etc. you're singing.
So why did the general public latch on Rihanna's typical reggae mess "Work" and not the other records?
And what song completely out of her usual genre Urban/Pop has been a hit?
:rudone:
The same reason why her latest POP song debuted in the TOP 10
Ok?
The majority of Rih's music falls under Pop.
She's a Pop/Urban artist.

California King Bed flopped (Pop record anyway)
She's been doing records like We Found Love since her 3rd album (Don't Stop The Music & half of GGGB falls under the same category)
Maybe 4,5 seconds, but without Paul McCartney on it would you consider it versatile?
The foundation of all her music is pretty much Pop with some Urban influences. She dibbles and dabbles but she's never abandoned her foundation completely and fully tackled another genre.
So have to fully tackle around genre to be versatile?
Is that your definition?
RIGHT! I guess she needs to become a full fledge country artist before we can say versatile. :dead:
You two are the ones who said she COMPLETELY changes genres.
Y'all act like she's Bjork or something.
She hasn't done anything that Bey Ci or Nicki haven't done. Their stans aren't calling them genre shape shifters. :dead:

Can't respond to someone who didn't answer the question or has anything worth responding to. Judgement is compromised by dislike of Rih. So it's not worth the convo, unless there is a proper one.

Your whole argument is that she's the MOST versatile currently. Wouldn't that imply she needs to do more than dibble and dabble here and there like most artists out already do?
And outside of 45 seconds the other "genres" she tackled flopped on The Hot 100.
Like Yummy said if you wanted a Rih praise thread you could've done better.
Bey can get credit when it's due.
Rih can't ever seem to get credit on here for anything.
The song "Work" alone is not something any random female artist out right now can GET AWAY with it and sell convincingly.
:dead:

Rockstar 101 flopped
California King Bed flopped (Pop record anyway)
She's been doing records like We Found Love since her 3rd album (Don't Stop The Music & half of GGGB falls under the same category)
Maybe 4,5 seconds, but without Paul McCartney on it would you consider it versatile?
The foundation of all her music is pretty much Pop with some Urban influences. She dibbles and dabbles but she's never abandoned her foundation completely and fully tackled another genre.
So have to fully tackle around genre to be versatile?
Is that your definition?
RIGHT! I guess she needs to become a full fledge country artist before we can say versatile. :dead:
You two are the ones who said she COMPLETELY changes genres.
Y'all act like she's Bjork or something.
She hasn't done anything that Bey Ci or Nicki haven't done. Their stans aren't calling them genre shape shifters. :dead:
Where did I use the WORD "completely" my love?
:plzstop:
You guys hate for this girl be coloring your judgements

Keep in mind, being versatile to me is being able to SELL (convincingly) that particular song/beat/music/lyric/groove,etc. you're singing.
So why did the general public latch on Rihanna's typical reggae mess "Work" and not the other records?
And what song completely out of her usual genre Urban/Pop has been a hit?

Your whole argument is that she's the MOST versatile currently. Wouldn't that imply she needs to do more than dibble and dabble here and there like most artists out already do?
And outside of 45 seconds the other "genres" she tackled flopped on The Hot 100.
Like Yummy said if you wanted a Rih praise thread you could've done better.
the MOST versatile is relative MY LOVE...
relative...
:uhh:
key word "relative" to climate of the industry
you really think BEY did some DEEP genre connecting with her latest SLAY?

But relatively speaking, she was versatile...
That's the whole point.

You're both basing believability on chart performance and yet every song outside of the "norm" for her you posted has flopped except 45 seconds, so obviously nobody believes or buys her genre hopping.

I thought I made it clear by saying not hopping on a EDM beat with some indie producer.
Rihanna clearly dabbles in genres and that's cute but so do countless other artists.
IDK why the Rihs have this idea that people think of her as some eclectic artist. Most of her hits are Pop/Urban records.
