I dont like r and b or pop music but Rihanna is a GREAT artist. Its hard to deny her impact and if you do it's pure and simple hate

Impact? :childplease:...
She may have had an impact as far as media attention is concerned... because every blog and entertainment show seems to be obligated to give a daily play by play update on whts going on in ths btch's life :rudy:... but this btch has had no impact musically...

She has 3 or 4 songs so far that I think will be pop mainstays, Umbrella, Man Down, Rude Boy and maybe Replay. She's not a good singer, but she makes good music and very catchy songs.

Oh yea Man Down too.

But my sister and wife are bigger pop music fans and both she will go down as a top 10 female pop artist when it's all said and done. Wife thinks Rated R and Loud are classics.

She arguably has not even hit her peak yet.

not only is her singing half -ass...but so is her choreography for live perfomances...its nothing but her twirling her arms around while surrounded and being carried around by a bunch of half dressed h**o lookin male dancers...Rihanna truly sucks...at least Brittany Spears could dance...

Let me just come out and say it... The greatest musicians/artists to have lived have never been those with the best voice, dance moves or looks...

:ufdup: I don't even dig most of her music and I know this is bullshyt...

She didn't become an international star by being on blogs and entertainment shows... she's on those shows everyday because of who she is in the first place. She's had major songs that you can't get away from. I'm not saying she's made anything culturally significant or anything like that, but hell if she ain't one of the major stars in music.

I think most of you don't understand the meaning of classic. I CAN'T STAND THIS CHICK but she absolutely has songs that people will still be singing along to in 30 years. She has more #1 songs than any female artist in history! Try to be unbiased people.

Exactly... people act like she's some fluke artist that just happened to get lucky a few times. :pachaha:

And people saying her music will be forgotten... don't ever trick yourselves into believing that. She might not be the greatest vocalist, her songs may be devoid of soul, she may not be the greatest dancer in the world...but them songs are huge. We might not like 'em, but they'll be remembered years from now.

People also said Madonna's music was a flash in the pan when she first blew up... and, well...

. I was with you until the devoid of soul unless you mean soulful singing. Her soul/emotions come out in her songs to me.

. That's easy she's clearly the most versatile artist out there. She fits in no category and all categories at the same time
