  7. Mz.Wysteria

    ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ what a snoozer!!!! That camel does right covering that fugly face up. Please do the human world a favor and retire to the desert or an oasis. I’m sick of you lying that you are retiring and not keeping you promise. You could have kept that D.O.A. mess to. You are not a good lyrist like Tupac. Tupac knows how to use a different range of words we are tired of you using all the words from Dr. Seuss’s books. You are not educated enough to use the words from a dictionary and a thesaurus. Give up and hug your money or something or retire to Florida and get the R.V. and drive cross country you old man.

  8. Suga Mama

    Love the video, Rihanna looked fly but that dancing and that voice has to go and her swagg wasnt hard enough for me for this concept of the video… Sometime I wonder what Jayz is thinking when he trys to push her like a Beyonce, no boo. Kanye killed it love the Darkness of the video

  9. I C E

    Jayz Can’t Retire , he would have no view’s on Rih ass , he’s Over Beyonce stinky Breath no Ass , Fake hair Queen ,.
    Poor Rih has no interest in that old broken down camel , BUT he’s always trying to get up in her ass , Why is he in this Dam Video .

    JAYZ Stop GO HOME and Retire with Stinky Breath Beyonce ,,Rih is too young for your ugly ASS .

    JAYZ Stop , go HOME and Retire with Stinky Breath Beyonce ,,Rih is too young for your ugly ASS .

    JAYZ Stop GO HOME and Retire with Stinky Breath Beyonce ,,Rih is too young for your ugly ASS .

    JAYZ Stop , go HOME and Retire with Stinky Breath Beyonce ,,Rih is too young for your ugly ASS .

  10. PrincessN

    Did my ears just deceive me or did Jay Z just blatantly say he’s in mason @ 2:35?

    On the contrary I think this is the best I’ve ever heard Rhi Rhi sing I hate her voice, Kanye killed it, Jay Z sounded bublegumish.

    I’m feeling the beat on this one though!

  11. Shonnie

    Rih made the entire video…for all u haters out there this video just solidifies their level in the music game. Its a very professional video coming from professional artist. Lets face it..it’s different but it works very well. More people in the music industry need to be unique. Struggling artist take notes!

  13. ELUC

    The video didn’t go anywhere…

  14. CLASSICHEELZ

    Okay….its so funny how when ppl talk about these celebs they always mention theyre luaghing to the bank? and haters are broke blah blah typical typical back talk….anyways……ok but what are yall doing? talentless ppl that remain famous are only famous off yall dollars….sooooo are yall laughing all the way to the bank or to the nearest store to spend more funds into the bank funds your fave celeb laughs all the way to get..cash…be gaudy…and flash all in ya face…and then brag as if they made it without the help????

    Lol …i see why music is the way it is today…. too many honor respect and even worse worship money…..which is how alot of talentless ppl remain famous….money is the last thing on earth that should be given that much respect..and power….and oh yea… I failed to mention looks…and material things….such fools….

    yes I wouldnt doubt such artist above that make unmeaningful music will remain famous…because as long as they have money…power & fame from those that idolize them…because of shallow sh8t…will of course stay recoginzed which equalifys with fame…..smh at bafoonery….

    yes ppl do need to deal with it….by ignoring it and keep listentin to the underground real music…because i believe thats where the real music will remain.

  15. No hating

    didn’t jay-z just sing death of autotune? but yet still using it, really shows how desperate he was to help ririh make this song so he had no choice but to use autotune, poor jay-z there’s nuffing u can do 4her oh maybe singing and dancing lessons? pls let go of this non-talent ass send her back to her parents with some cash to help her start anova business or clothing line cuz she always looks good on the clothes they make her wear cuz this ain’t it, cant believe all the hype around this song and the vid didn’t even help it either **sigh** ricannot do us fav luv learn atleast how to dance to be in the same standard as nonsinging ciara. People just imagine rcannot sing this live?

  16. CLASSICHEELZ

    oh yess and my comment for the video..one word. typical. baphomet ring flashin..dark clothes rockin..ones claimin to be a God…loaded with cockyness…soundn trash soo many are so hypnotized by.

    And please stop with the illetarate term HATER…….everybody is a damn hater..a lover…etc…..im pretty sure everybody has something or someone they do not like for there personal REASON….to anybody that calls someone a hater is a hypocrite….because what if what you dislike considers you a hater because you dislike them or it??? LOL so please explain why is it worth time to argue with a so called hater when your one as well? unless you just simply like everything and everyone including haters…then that simply means ur not a hater, whatsoever????but I doubt that…so hush hater…lol

    lmao..such fools. ppl fail to think. thats where stupidity falls in.

  17. k/k

    This is hot , Rih out did herself , Her sound , her hat , Everything she is outstanding /

  18. Al

    The video didnt make sense to me… I like the song but it was just a bunch of people with sticks on fire o_0 unless they were focusing on the setting than an actual plot to the video.

  19. Simply MzJENN

    wow.. thiis like totttttttttaaaalllly SUCKED ass.. kanye was the best and RHI RHI swaggggggg was soo off and jay z.. CRICKETS!@!

  20. MizIz

    ……… Kanye seems oddly out of place, like that kid that’s frenz with the popular kids but try a lil too hard to be a wing man,,,

  21. Simply MzJENN

    Yeah looked at it again to see if it would get better… annnnnnd.. Uhhhhh i think it got worse..!!

  22. Commentator

    Lyricist…do any of you understand the term? Poet? No? The insight’s not there? No concept of such, ever? Maybe you should go back to MEMORIZING your nursery rhymes. Then again, I apologize for my patronizing. No need in demoralizing those without soul.

  23. theComplex

    Lol @ all the critics who apparently cannot be satisfied. Love the video :)

  24. A&E girl

    Ok so we get the point.
    Rihanna can’t sing,
    Jay is too old, and Kanye looks outta place(even though i love his verse; he shoulda had more bars). But I kinda like the video and the song isn’t too bad once you get over the whining in the chorus. I’m just surprise it hasn’t generated as much comment as i thought it would’ve, even with the rihanna stans posting 50+ comments per person. Guess people aren’t all that interested in the hype… oh well.

  25. YA'LL MAKE ME WANNA VOMIT

    I watched this video 12 times and I MUST SAY IT IS DOPE! All this bullshit bout how they are satan worshippers is just ignorance! JAY-Z SAYS HIS IN MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA…not MASON..dim twitts…this is what happens when you aren’t cultured! MMM is French couture label…LMAO….Jay is once again showing you he is killing his swag…so quit talk smack and admit the vid is dope…OH QUESTION…WHO MAKES DOPE MUSIC WHEN THEY ARE HAPPY? …all the dopest tracks are the ones where the artist are pissed as hell….and this is a classic example…

    WHO GON RUN THIS TOWN TONIGHT?

    Rihanna’s voice matches the song…ITS NOT BUBBLEGUM…its raw…scary and on point…kinda makes you wanna go to war….

    UUURRRRHHHHGGGGG….IS THAT A MAAY-WHAT….

  26. ultimateflofan

    nah. i aint feeling this song. that buzzer irritates my ears and the video is so boring.

  27. Britneyfan09 hater

    rihanna sings like crap with that accent. plus, the video doesn’t match the we run this TOWN concept. lmfao!

  28. Oh hot damn

  33. bored

    @37 it’s not our fault Riri cant dance, sing, or make everyone in the world happy like you. Admit it, your girl has a limited vocal ability that matches a dying cat!

  34. Bosstweety

    @196 THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! i am so tired of the word hater. I also agree with the music because me and my friends sit back and wonder how did some of these songs even make it on the radio. Another thing is why are people so focused on Jayz age? Is their a age limit on how long you can rap? I like to see what a lot of people are going to be doing when they reach thirty let along forty. How would like it if someone tell you u have to stop doing something you love because yo getting too old.

    As for the video. I didn’t care to much for it but i do love the song and yes I will be buying the cd. Not downloading it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  35. *~*lady_love

    I love all 3 of them! They are the hottest people in the business right now whether you like it or not! They are household names. World wide international superstars! I’m proud of them for doing their thing. This song is a banger and the video is fire! Plus the people calling this video wack were the same ones praising Beyawnsay for those lame a$$ videos she had posted on CL and every single one of them suucckkeeddd!!!

  36. LOVEY DOVEY

    RIHANNA STEALS THE SHOW ONCE AGAIN! PEOPLE CLAIM TO HATE HER BUT STAY POSTED UP STALKING HER EVERY MOVE! LMAO! YES YOU CAN GO AHEAD AND COUNT THIS AS ANOTHER #1 FOR RIHANNA! SHE CAN’T HELP IT! MAKING HITS IS WHAT SHE DOES. GET USED TO SEEING (AND HEARING) HER BECAUSE SHE IS ABOUT TO COME BACK WITH A VENGEANCE! HATERS YOU BETTER EAT YOUR WHEATIES!

  37. DJ DAVE

    Smh. Sexy as hell Robyn!
    I agree the video is hot…and for one reason only. It’s so good to see my wifey return to where she belongs..at the top of the charts. She has been off of the music scene for too long. Welcome back Rihanna!

  38. Nat

    Okay we get it, Jay Z is talking about Margiela shoes. But why does he pause after saying Maison? Why is it the only shoe he mentions? I think he meant it to have double-meaning.

    The video is what I expected based on the photos. I hope that music makes a turnaround and somehow real talent is promoted again. I’m tired of all 3 of these fools. and let them take Beyonce with them.

  39. 5 days to go

    lol @ My2sense trying to go in on them when you can’t even do anything without your mommy’s permission. Child sit down you sound foolish.

  40. eva

    uurrrrrggggghhhhhh
    THIS IS TO THAT OBSESSED RIHANNA WORSHIPPER (I LOVE THIS GAME): STOP POSTING SEVERAL TIMES! YOU’RE SO ANNOYING
    WE GET IT! YOU LOVE RIHANNA. MOVE ONE WITH YOUR LIFE AND STOP COMMENTING OVER……………AND OVER………….AND OVER AGAIN (ESP UNDER DIFFERENT NAMES) DAMN
    RIHANNA CANNOT SING AND NO AMOUNT OF COMMENT POSTING YOU DO WILL CHANGE THAT. SHE’S SO BAD JAY Z (WHO’S AGAINST AUTOTUNE) HAD TO USE IT ON HER VOICE

  41. ????????????

    @ Naw

    lol! Intimidated by what? Beyaki is nothing to be intimidated by. And her stans mention Rihanna on every one of her posts too so don’t act like she is the only one getting mentioned when the post isn’t about her.

  42. totellthetruth

    most of you totally missing the point…rihanna is chanting…it doesnt matter what she sounds like…chanting to get you hooked…..notice how Jay in the beginning was ILLUMINATED by fire..then Rihanna ILLUMINATED by fire…..how many people said they felt weird watching the video….your soul felt & knew that shit wasnt right.. all the others cant be saved u still can…..just listen to the words alone hate sprewing from Jay and Kayne

  43. ????????????

    THERE’S ANOTHER VERSION OF THIS SONG WITH ANOTHER RAPPER ON A WHOLE DIFFERENT VERSE TOO. I WONDER WHO THAT PERSON IS…

  44. I LOVE THIS GAME

    YOU’RE SO SILLY TO THINK ANYONE WHO HATES RIHANNA MUST LIKE BEYONCE, I HATE THEM BOTH AND STFU WITH YOUR AZZ LICKING SELF…….EVERYTHING YOU SAID TO ME, IM DIRECTING IT BACK TO YOU
    I DONT STAN FOR ANYONE CUZ I’VE GOT A LIFE, I DONT LIVE ON BLOGS AND HALLUCINATE ABOUT THESE PEOPLE WHO ARE SPENDING YOUR MONEY WHICH YOU BRAG ABOUT WHILE YOU’RE SITTING IN YOUR ONE BEDROOM MOTEL WATCHING THE ROACHES CRAWL ON THE WALL

  46. ''i love this game'' needs to seek help asap

    #225 I believe we’re related one way or another lol
    We think alike a lot, that stan clearly has a mental problem you know, taking sh*t bout people who dont care bout rihanna. It’s so scary i believe he/she must either be rihanna herself or a close relative. The grammatical errors are good evidence cause yaw know the girl cant speak english properly lmao
    No stan regardless of how dedicated they are can be as defensive and rude as that so i strongly believe it’s the bajan princess herself or her loyal sidekick melissa commenting under those names. I tried sayng something positive bout her for once but the comments i read ruined the moment

  47. I LOVE THIS GAME

    WOW , SOS , SOS , LAUGH OUT LOUD FUNNNNNNNY — EVE of SHIT , BEYONCE ,,, ASS licking Foolish jack ass , trying to put on an act or Fool someone that ur not ONE of Beyonce Worshiper’s , Please do not get a stroke ass LICKER . it’s Okay ;-)

    @ Eve If ur not a beyonce monkey ——- why get so upset ? ? ? girl friend , is about to go MAD CRAZEY !
    EVE u sound like u need help , not ( I love this Game ) he or she is very direct and i like that bluntness . So if you can take the heat , get out the KITCHEN .

  49. oh Lawd

    comments #227 and #228 are the same person
    how the f*ck can you be agreeing wit yo damn self
    i agree with everyone who’s had a go at you
    you require a lot of medical atention as you have multiple disorder syndrome and your rihanna cl*t riding habit is way extreme than usual. i feel sorry for you boo
    you obviously don’t have any reason to be pleased with yourself , if i were you i’d be ashamed of myself too. being a total and public disgrace each time must really hurt
    rihanna would be very embarassed someone like you stans for her, so will her sensible stans. ”i love this game” isnt blunt, it’s just stupid, delusional and retarded
    you called someone a ”monkey”? i knew it, that just gave the fact that you’re under 16 away. lil kid where are your parents for God’s sake? seems like they’re not doing a good job raising you to look down on others who aren’t as air headed as you

    the video’s as bad as i thought it would be, dont get me started on rihanna’s howling
    love Kanye’s verse though

  50. eva

    I LOVE THIS GAME, I TRIED SOO HARD NOT TO REPLY YOU AGAIN BUT I COULDN’T HELP BUT LAUGH PUBLICLY AT HOW SAD YOU ARE. I’D LOVE TO EXCHANGE MORE WORDS WITH YOU BUT RIHANNA CONTROLS YOUR LIFE SO ANYTHING ANYONE ELSE SAYS TO YOU WILL BE IRRELEVANT
    HOPEFULLY YOU DON’T KILL YOURSELF EVENTUALLY WHEN YOU FIND OUT SHE DOESN’T CARE BOUT CHU, BUT TILL THEN KEEP POSTING UNDER DIFFERENT NAMES AND INSULTING PEOPLE AND THEIR FAMILIES LMAO
    THIS TIME NEXT YEAR, I BET YOU’LL BE AN INMATE AT A PSYCHIATRIC CENTRE SO MAKE THE MOST OUTTA THE SHORT TIME YOU HAVE LEFT

  52. MWNY

    I watched the behind the scenes of the vid and Jay says he doesn’t meddle in Rihanna’s business and he is trying to moving out of her way…So all the insinuation about them having some sort of relationship is hogwash..They all are like family.

  53. divacapricorn

    EXO 20:3 “You shall have no other gods before me.

    4 “You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.

    5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me,

    You “Fans” need to wake up! seriously smh
