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:

 

4,5 secs gives u a folk rock, rockstar 101 is self explanatory, we found love is the ultimate dance record, California king bed is a country record, i mean do we have to sit here and go thru the hits :dead:

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.
