shit, my own FAVE doesn't tour
:dead:
n :uhh:

did u see brandy doing major tours back to back in her career?
:uhh:
ch

tour aint everything
not even mariah toured that much in her career, she didn't even need to - she wrote all her damn songs, lived off publishing
All of this is true, Mariah aint a tour girl either and beyonce will never have all her success.  It's really apples and oranges tbh.
Mariah only isnt a tour girl because she was releasing albums EVERY year
it wasnt because of cancelled dates like Rih has
ya'll are a mess

And Yumz pisses me off
This off and on relationship he has with Rih
SMFH I wanna fight him


I like Rih but y'all be having me screaming trying to paint her as some musical genius  :plzstop:

She's pretty much a product of a team of songwriters, producers and stylists and has a handful of catchy songs. That's about it tbh.
For me she is that
Yes there's a machine behind her but it's no different than Beyonc? or whitney
Her artistry >>>
She knows herself and knows music
It kinda can't be argued ..
And no other girl makes solid albums like her .. As far as her contemporaries  :dead:
She's no musical genius but she's Def one of the greats

q

boy

Stargate said all she does is show up and record the songs the way they tell her to. Like, that's all sis does. Shit, you can listen to the Ester Dean demos for WMN and S&M and all the versions are damn near identical.

And she compared making an album to going shoe shopping once  :dead: Rih isn't the artist you think she is, luv

Love her but nah ffff
thats her formula ...yet she kills that
but its no different from most of these other "artiste"  :plzstop: :plzstop: :plzstop:

ive watched  all of her documentaries and shes involved enough..from choosing the songs to looks for the era..
it all makes sense and has her hands in it but what the fuck ever..
i admire her artistry

even mj had a team but DEW

if that were true, do you really think the anti era would have been the clusterfuck that it started out as?  :dead:

at the most, sis has control over her social media accounts and her hair color. everything else from what the album will sound like to which producers/songwriters she works with is handled by the label.
this era was a mess because of the label switch and her allowing kanye to be so heavily involved..
this was roc nation without a major label first album release
it was bound to be trippy..
they changed the direction of this album a million times..
this happens in music..
rih works hand and hand with them  :plzstop:


u dont recall Def Jam beefing with rihanna over the rated r era ???
they were pissed at how dark she made the era and how moody everything was..
:plzstop: :plzstop:
yummy .. rihanna is heavily involved with the created process like  :uhh:
they have issues every era because they barely find a happy medium..
loud era is the era she let the label kinda step back in and guide a bit..
unap' was heavily rih.. along with rated r and anti (final parts of it)

GGGB and everything before that are the eras she had no creative control

I won't even bother discuss Ciara
that'll be your smartest decision yet

Because "I Bet" is platinum. Did any other female R&B song do that recently? Answer that first.

fuck you, frog faced faggot. you're the dumbest staff member on this bitch and you're mad about it.

like Def jam was dragging rih for the rated r era because they insisted she gave a more girl next door colorful mess and she resisted and insisted on making the era DARK..

where is the making of the "wait ur turn" vidya where her manager spoke on how rih is going against everything def jam wanted :dead:

So Beyonce doesn't sell records now? :ohwow:

are you guys just messing or are y'all really that slow? I know Ralf is dumb as fck, but vonc... really? :dead:
Beyonce last couple of records are platinum and double platinum so no :kii: she sells decently enough to say it aint flop JUST like Rihanna. Taylor's Mess is 5x, Adele released 3 months ago and is 8x platinum. They are the record selling girls and beyonce cant sit with them :kii: :kii: :kii: :kii: :kii: :kii:
This is my pass to say WHATEVER tf I wanna say about the mess she releases so I don't wanna hear SHIT! Baby mama is a mess of a song btw

baby i understand what ur saying lol

but whether rih cancels her dates or not
who gives a fuck?
no one looks at her as a TOUR girl
so it kinda just doesn't matter
:dead:

it'd be a READ if the girl couldn't book a Top 10 or something.
