DID U GUYS KNOw THAT “MISS INDEPENDENT” was supposed to be A DESTINY”S CHILD SONG , but they didn’t want it so THey tried CHRISTINA A> WHO CO-wrote it and she didn’t want it either and gave it to Kelly Clarkson.

THat song is a POp song with RocK influence and they wanted Destiny’s child to sing it. SO it doesn’t matter waht UR race is if you are a big enough artist YOu can sing whatever u want to like “DIrty Diana” or “Black Cat”

Love it!

i like rihanna but i’m seriously not feeling this song, maybe later. but not right now. i think there’s too much guitar in the chorus or sumthing

@ Lisa

You have to learn that the majority of the people in here are R&B and Hip-Hop heads..lol..so I’m not surprise if they didn’t like it..but I agree 100% with you..and umm?..about “Miss Independent” Pharrell wrote that song for Christina Aguilera and she turned it down and they gave it to Kelly Clarkson by the way thet track was produced by Hip-Hop producers The Neptunes bet you guys didn’t know that..lol..but about Rhianna the song is definetly going to do well because pop radio stations will be blasting this..the more mainstrean it is the more better sucess despite what everyone’s opinion on it..Beyonce is doing the same thing making pop records to make more money;)

R U fucking kidding me. This sounds like some disney channel rock. Her new so-called edge is so store bought. Please this aint a new rihanna it’s just a new wrapping. This chick has 0 talent and her hairstyle is getting boring already who you know that wears the same style to every event. She need to just shut up and drive. Phony rock star alert!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think it’s ok. As long as this does not become a single. This is one of the type of songs that she should leave just for her fans who wont be so judgemental of it.

OKAY JUST BECAUSE SHE IS DOING SOMETHING BESIDES REGGAE DOE NOT MEAN THAT SHE IS FORGETTING WHERE SHE IS COMING FROM. YOU CAN BE VERSITILE. BUT I DONT LIKE IT. ITS BEEN DONE BEFORE

THE BLACK HAIR IS UGLY ON HER. IT MAKES HER LOOK MEAN AND COLD. ITS LIKE ONE MINUTE SHE HAS ONE LOOK AND THE NEXT SHE DOIN ANOTHER. SHE IS A MARKET CREATION. A PUPPET BECAUSE SHE OBVIOUSLY HAS NO SAY ON HER LOOK.

OH YES AND BLACKS INVENTED ROCK MUSIC AND WHITES STOLE IT SEEMS LIKE ANOHTER FACTOR LIKE WITH THE “BLUE EYED SOUL” AND RAP. PLEASE LETS NOT LET HISTORY REPEAT.

SHE NEEDS TO CHILL OUT WITH THE ALBUMS. SHE ONLY HAS A SIX ALBUM CONTRACT. THEY NEED TO REST A MINUTE. SO WE CAN SEE A CHANGE. THIS CHICK NEEDS TO JUST SHUT UP.

white ppl are gonna go coo coo off this shit….

Wow, just laughing at how harsh people are on Rhianna for the same shit that Beyonce puts out! I don’t blame Rhianna, Get it Rhi, ride that over-exposed, big hair, big makeup, crazy loud music with child like gimmicks, be-everywhere all the time “wave”. Don’t blame you one bit! Get it girl!

@TASHIANAMARIE

Hello, are you new here?

IT DOSEN’T MATTER IF IT’S R&B OR POP/ROCK, SHE CAN’T SING FOR $HIT!!!!THEY DON’T EVEN PLAY HER STUFF HERE!!!

this is for the white kids who really buys music so you guys who dont like it doesn’t matter

She sounds ridiculous. I will pass.

i hate this song

I’m digging this joint because I can imagine laying my dick game down on Rihanna and feeling a little tired so I tell her I need time out then she replies fiercely”shut up and drive”.

Ladies my dick game is crazy,holla at your boy.

Chea!

Rihanna has no talent that song is pure garbage and she can not hold a note for shit i dont know why people give this girl props she aint even that cute or that talented she has no ass not anything i dont know why she wears ho shit either it dont show off her body she has no ass and another thing this shit is what i call str8 up recycle ben R&B is wasteing away no one like this shit but people that listen to Fergie and thats mainly white people music is not the same then what it use to be back in the 80’s and 90’s the only reason why this girl Rihanna is appearing at every event and puttin out 3 albums back 2 back is because they are going to get rid of her so they lettin her drop as many wrothless singles and albums so they can push her out the way and focus on someone new dont think Jay Z aint thought about gettin rid of this Rihanna girl she is none talented she cant dance soon its gonna be another female singer to replace forehead Def Jam already know this chick has no talent and to top it off this song shut up and drive WTF this is garbage str8 ass.

She sounds like Fefe. So…..eh!

ummmm, pass.

it’s alright, well idk…

i do think it’s stupid to be talkin about a gangsta lean on a pop/rock song but whatever

i hope she doesnt stick with this “bad girl” thing too long, i hope this is the only pop/rock song on the album

she had “kisses don’t lie” on the last one but it still had an r&b feel

Would some of yall just shut up and just DRIVE?! lol, that was uber corny. Some of you are typing super long paragraphs like you are really going to change some opinions. We get it already, she can’t sing or dance or perform, and she’s no Bey. Did anybody buy her ulbums, BTW? I heard they were sort of good. Anyways, “umbrella” shits on this a million times. I don’t even think them caucasians would like this one. I’m ready for some Cassie, seriously.

and some of yall getting emotional over this because?

let me know.

Fuck the driving, just shut up!

Actually this IS the second single and they are already playing it like crazy here where I live on the pop stations. Actually Miss Independent went to DC before it went to Christina (who DID co-write it) there was an article on it from Kelly’s website a while back.

not my style but what should i expect…she’s a child. This appropriate for her audience! i’m sure this will make her a huge crossover success and if that’s what she wants good for her. i wasn’t buying her new cd anyway, but i must say this does give me a new appreciation 4 umbrella ella ella eh.

i am confused about her new supposed “edge” though…..

4 got to add. i do agree with people about white’s “corssing over” much more easily than “blacks”. look at BET. They’ll play Eminem before Lenny Kravits. I though that was Black Entertaiment Television, not Hip Entertianment Television. Black people make all types of music, but you wouldn’t know it….

I like the song I’m all for sista trying to step out and do something new. Res and alot of artist have tried doing some different but they get CORNERED and have to be a Kiesha Cole. Do something new!!

Cookie let me elaborate on your comment yeah they’ll play Eminem’s music before Lenny Kravitz because he he’s not a hip-hop/R&B artist..they won’t play this new Rhianna song because it’s not urban enough..BET needs to support all of their black artist not ONLY the popular artist

Ehhh…not really feelin it actually….

Love Umbrella tho!

I’ll be happy when you guys start back posting the streaming sites….

I THINK RIHANNA IS TRYING VERY HARD TO BE LIKE BEYONCE NOW.. I SEEN THAT VIDEO AND IM THINKING TO MYSELF SHE AINT GOT NOTHING ON B BUT SHE DID UPRGADE HERSELF A LITTLE SHE’S REALLY GROWING UP AT 19 YEARS OLD HER NEW ALBUM IS NOT THAT GREAT : /

This is more of a pop song but I but the younger females thats into pop will buy this so she will make some money offit. I like umbrella better love that!! everyone wants to be like beyonce even my dog!!! what are you 9 or 10 ? people are starting to sound real stupid!!

okaaaaay umbrella is not good, i hate that i love you is bad and this song is WOOOOOOOOORSE. why is this girl famous???? she isn´t talented, she can´t sing, can´t dance, doesn´t write her own suff…………………………….please rihanna SHUT UP AND DRIVE BACK TO BARBADOS.

stupid song

#109. are you retarded? what type of shit are you one. you cant drive to barbados. you need school

Tiana, yeah this totally seems like a pop-rock song that FeFe would totally rock. Though I am sure FeFe would have better lyrics.

This song will definitely be on MTV, VH1, played on all the ROCK/ SOFT ROCK/ POP STATIONS…she is just putting her eggs in more than one basket, appealing to a broader range of people. Her team definitely know what they are doing. IT WILL SELL>

@63 I co-sign on that!!!

wow! definetly something different.
aggression doesnt fit her personality or style.

.. im not really feeling it tho.

It’s o.k. if Rihanna does it.But Beyonce would sing it better.Beyonce could sing anything…so yea…Rihanna sings alright.But I still think the song suits Beyonce’s taste.

She isnt a great singer but she looks good.

That’z bitch musci don’t rock she look like an damn mockey in the pic she took at the top of the page and any one of ya’ll who think i’m hatin whay eva well my words are slippin and these hoez are trippin holla at yo azz one.

I thought the song was ok..
Not what I usually listen to but its not horrible.

Hated it! Next!

My honest opinion, the song is not that good.Rock or not, it not that good.

Rihanna is confused
