When the song hits #1 all will be silenced. Just ask yourselves why are you even commenting on her? Cuz she’s the baddest thats why! =)

I love that Rihanna keeps improving vocally. This is not what I expected for a first release especially after the build up but nevertheless, the song is nice.

I Like It,A LOT!!!!! Go RhiRhi!!!

ZZZZzzzzzzz girl bye! I’m terrified too…

39.

beyonce about be pissed over this crap???even ppl on the radio said it’s not what defjam made it to be the song is wack. get over it Beyonce & Lady Gaga song and video is coming thats is what going to have the world going crazy

Whats with the Album cover, she looks like a slut!! I wouldnt let my child buy this with that picture on it!! She looks trashy!!

@SO FAR GONE

So True…people were saying how annoying Umbrella was when it first came out. But I do see this a a chart topper, she seems to be getting good feedback on the song though.

i even expected more and i don’t like her lol i’m just not sure how this will perform ont he charts. no doubt it will NOT surpass gaga though

Love the beat! Go Rih!!!!!

I must say, the pain in her voice is all over this song and for this reason this song is HOTT..How can anyone expect for her to come out with a fast song with the past year she just had.. Get over it.. and no I am not a Rihanna fan I just think that this song is very different and I am glad. This song will be refreshing for the radio…

Me Likey

I feel like it isn’t a bad song, but better as a second or third single. Since it’s a ballad. And the single cover, doesn’t really go with the song to me. It’s edgy in a very different way rather than barbwire, to me.

I also wish Ne-Yo didn’t have her do the whole part where it fades and repeats, “trigger, trigger, trigger…” cause that is kinda annoying.

Any who I still am anticipating hearing the entire album! So I think it was a decent move by Def jam and Rihanna’s people. But I would have made the world premier of the song to iTunes, not on Ryan Seacrest’s show, but it is kinda funny to do it the day after Gaga premiered her official copy of “Bad Romance”

If you haven’t hear Amerie’s “Pretty brown,” with Trey Songz listen to it, such a HOT song!

i like it
but not good enough for first single
lady gaga is going to tear rihanna to pieces with fame monster
if rihanna doesnt come harder.

I bet if Beyonce had come out with this song everybody would be overjoyed and loving every second of it but because its Rihanna, its just alright? smh . I love how ppl hate on her and her music but when her music becomes a hit like Take A Bow and Umbrella, they wanna ride on her back like a fan .

WTF, this is what we waited for????? After a Spring of drama, a summer of haircuts and dye, A Fall of high profiled appearances across the globe, killin’ Fashion Weeks in NYC and across the pond in Paris, and she drops this mess, UNACCEPTABLE! Who are her people? I was anticipating a SUPER pop music euro fusion sound and I get “Russian Roulette”????????? I’m mad,but I hope the next single she drops is hot fire because right now this song is very weak for me.

Go Rhi Rhi…Your Haters Are Your BIGGEST Fans…Apparently They Don’t Know Anything About Change And They Probably Never Will…They Are Always Comparing You To Bee, But If Bee Is So Great, Then Why They Hate? I Guess They See That You Are A ‘Threat’…Keep It Rockin’ :coffee:

It’s still an ok song..it’s not bad…

This girl has gone straight demonic. This song sounds sooo bad its not even funny. If ppl literally think this girl can sing the world is truly coming to an end. And good music has officially been buried undergound. What the hell did Chris do to this child? or better yet Hollywierd? That single cover is MADD RIDICULOUS, if it isnt obvious this chick is all hype for no reason other then her various images then I dont know what is.

Go Riri u have done once again i love the song and the new look u have gone darker witch i like. I waited for this song to drop on rihannanow.com now i have listened to it like 13 times i love it its bad.. i think im the only one from australia at thiis time of morning waiting for it to drop lol… the song is a master piece wonder what the video will be like… hope the album rips lady gaga into pieces in the 1st week of sale’s i think Riri will sale 1million copies world wide in a week. im Buying 10 albums i have already got them on order for the states. Us down under love u Riri sydney will always back u up saell out concerts and all we r here when u need us….. Rihanna is the Pop Princess when madonna dies Riri will take over the crown…. screw all the haters RIHANNA IS THE BEST THING THAT EVER HIT THE MUSIC INDUSTRY HOPE UR NEXT SINGLE ROCKS THE WORLD AND SENDS SHIVERS UP PEOPLES SPINES…

Rihanna got another international pop hit on her hands. That girls knows how to choose hit music

the song is aiight..not sure it will be a number one record

Just ok, Not impressed at all!!!

Death @ 94 comments so far..are we going to break a record today! The power of Rihallah!

RiRi babe stick to sidewalk fashion this sh*t is a HAM!

This song is much like A. Keys’ “Doesn’t Mean Anything”… kind of lackluster and boring.

The only difference is I always buy Alicia’s albums even if I don’t like the single, because she always has a solid album and I know there will be SOMETHING on there I like… Rihanna’s song isnt horrible… just not my cup of tea.

I REALIZE PPL DO NOT LISTEN TO LYRICS ANYMORE. WE JUST WANT TO BE VISUALLY STIMULATED AND THIS IS WHY THE WORLD IS BACKWARDS NOW!! I WILL KEEP REPOSTING MY RESPONSE TO THIS HOT GAHBAGE TILL THE IDIOT RIHANNA STANS WHO WOULDN’T KNO TALENT IF IT KICKED THEM IN THEIR FACE GETS IT!! SINGING ABOUT SUICIDE IS NOT COOL!! SHE NEEDS TO FIND GOD AND I PRAY TO THE ALMIGHTY ABOVE THAT WE DO NOT SEE CHICK TRYNA KILL HERSELF IN THE VIDEO BC THAT WILL B IT FOR ME. THIS CHICK NEEDS HELP AND NE-YO NEEDS A KICK FOR WASTING MELODY AND HARMONY ON SUCH IRRESPONSIBLE LYRICS. RIHANNA NEEDS GOD AND U FANS WHO TRULY LOVE HER NEED TO PRAY FOR HER SOU BC CHICK DONE LOST IT

This song is wack. Why is this chick getting a premiere on primetime for this mess?
It sounds exactly like Unfaithful. Is there ever any originality in music anymore? Single Ladies sounded exactly like Get Me Bodied and “i can transform you” sounds like chris watched that movie and made a song about it. im giving up on contemporary r&b

@ 76: I co-sign

I’m not sure about this one but i’m absolutely sure that i don’t like the cover art- looks trashy and contrived- no, no, no mam.

The song is sort of dark- i have no idea what she is singing oabout- suicide, a lover trying to kill her…what

The song seems nice enough and on first listen i like it more than A Keys ‘doesn’t meant anythng’. I’m just not sure i want to lissten to this dark song during theholidays. Can’t wait to see her try to sing this live, lol!

This song is AMAZING. People are so attached to looks….listen to the MUSIC dammmit!!
I’m weary of the despondant message in it, but it’s beautifully written and her vocals has improved greatly.

Yeah this song has a really dark mood, Im glad she is not putting out some dance record just yet. Neyo does the damn thing!! I cant wait to hear what’s next.

I love it. Very dark, very edgy, very epic. Go RiRi! I love to see women doin their thing despite the haters. She will smash on the radio as usual.

I am really sick of people who think b/c someone likes Rihannas music that they don’t know real music. Rihanna is a pop star who sings pop music, we don’t expect her to be the next Nina Simone

I am so disappointed that song is WACK, NEYO pls go away and come back with some better writing concepts you keep writnig the same song over and over again, its getting dreadful and predictable

i’m not feelin that pic either

SO DISAPPOINTED!

It sounds like she just got beat up… too dramatic. I like it but not the club banger i was hoping for.

@106 YES! It’s OK to like all different types of music. Let’s enjoy each artist for who they are and what they bring to the table.

LOL @ the next Nina Simone

Well personally I think the song is weird. Shes talking about killing herself. Why would Neyo write this kind of song for her????
She should have came with a dance track not this mess got me all depressed now and ish.

i Loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooovvvveeit….

The thread already blew up!!! The b!tch is back….Time to take over 2010… BOOYAY

@Truthfullyspeaking….you are so right my sister likes Rihanna and when she heard her live on Jay Leno she was like what the hell…she never heard her live before I couldn’t stop laughing…back on topic…I don’t like this song at all…the gunshot at the end…its too much…young kids listen to her and you’re talking about taking your life…I mean come on too many young ppl are dying at rapid numbers…I do give her PR team props for hyping this song up but if you listen to the words not too many parents are going to be happy…

I like the pic, but her breast look weird(or is that a nude shirt underneath???).

I havent listened to the song yet, so I cannot review it until later.

I dont know what to think with this one. Instead of going “edgy” she is going soft porn and euro pop with me. This chick is confusing. She is wearing JACK first of all. What is next for her style evolution. Is she going to spread her legs wide open for us on her next album. I am not feeling this track at all. I was not expecting this but i am sure it will go to number one just based on the hype. Why has good music deserted us in mainstream music today. Shout out to Melanie Fiona!!

BREAKING NEWS RIHANNA SINGLE IS ALREADY #1 IN SOUTH AFRICA….

Hey the song is officially no.1 on 94.5 in less than a day!
Congratulations Rihannaaaaaaaa!

maybe it has to grow me but coming out the box, if i had to choose today. this song doesnt do it for me and im 30 years been through many good times and bad times. i can understand and even relate .. releasing a slow song during the recessional holiday is not good. so many are already depressed. and this song is very depressing .ppl want music that makes them feel good. not good marketing strategy. should have been released late winter early spring. I’m wait to here the 2nd single to be released

she’s very talented and beatiful there’s no denying that but this Single however is kinda subtle.. from what i get out of this single , it is suppose to be about pain and letting go? not sure but i think that her doing slow songs is not bad but not necessarily her. I can’t put slow songs and Rihanna in the same sentence! At the same token im glad she’s out there im just looking foward to what she will say about the incident if she does, on GMA!!!!! 3 1/2 stars out 5

DAMN RIHANNA YOU SOUND AMAZING I WOULD LOVE TO LISTEN TO THE BEAT AND THE MELODY BUT I CAN NOT GET INTO A SONG ABOUT KILLING MY SELF WHAT I LOOK LIKE “THAT SOUND STUPID TO ME” LIFE GOES ON BOO. THE SONG/SOUND GIVES YOU A FEELING THE ALBUM AND IT’S DIRECTION IS GOING TO BE HOT SO IT’S STILL TEAM RIHANNA FOR THE HATERS

@ 119….number 1 already? Congrats Rihanna!

@JJJ

Where did you read that…it’s already number 1???

She’s definetly pushing the envelope with this one. The song has a dark side to it, very edgy, a different direction from the norm… the shot fired at the end caught me off guard thou…very revealing, hope kids aren’t listening to this and decide to try it at home. We have be very cautious with this type of music.

I mean the song isn’t terrible…she’s definately grown vocally but the song itself just isn’t doin it for me…maybe it’ll grow on me tho. Either way, she’s still fine lol

@109…ya damn right she aint nowhere near nina simone level…that lady song dark music as well but ontop had the vocals to make ppl not only feel what she was singing but understand as well. and she didnt have to display ass and tatas to get ppls attention either.

she cant be all things to all people… I love the song for what it is…she is over 21 now so I dont think she should only do BUBBLE GUM…aAND she has been through alot this year so it si understandable that she doesnt come out out singing FLUFF…

N E WAY I wish her much success…

MAAAAAAN, I can’t even deal hunnie. I’m soooo OVER this good girl gone bad bullshit… C’mon stop all the dark sided energy… Disturbia was ENOUGH.. What eva happend to the Dance hall grooves rihanna use to have?!? I would rather had a up tempo ragae hip hop record then this slow depressing ballad…. NEXXXXXT!

Rihanna is BACK!!!!!! STR8 TO #1!!!
WE TRENDING ON TWITTER, GOT YALL HATING ON THE BLOGS, AND STILL COMPARING HER TO BEYONCE!
Everything a Rihanna STAN ever wanted! Rihanna and I would like to THANK YOU! for making us #1

I love the song. Fuck what u heard and listen to what im about to tell u! Rihanna is back bitches. It will be a #1 song

*sighs* so she just made a song to help ppl pull the trigger..@ the 130 mark i already wanted to pull the Trigger Trigger. Maybe it has to grow on me but 1st reviews Hated It

YESSS i love it..Trending on twitter like it should be …Shees back and i hope she do waaay better than chris brown

Damn… the haters running in this post like they giving away free soup and shit lol!!! But on a sadder note.. Chris fucked this girl up Shame on you Chris, Shame!!

@114 Lol, i looooove it 2!

@119 u serious! u can’t stop her, shes going str8 2 #1

I like the fact she decided 2 do something different, it wasn’t a club song like every1 expected or about anything typical.

Once again my girl RiRi is setting up a trend and doing her own thing…SHES A TREND-SETTER!

now Rihanna is comin for Lady Gaga huh?

lmao @133

and its only been 20mins since the posts been up and we’re @ 140 comments, get ready CL u may have a crash and r about 2 c record #’s on a post

The song is fu*kin EPIC!!! Get with it or get lost! Better yet pull the trigger! ITS RIHANNA BISHES!!

Lady Gaga doesn’t have anything to worry about.
This song is horrible.

I Like it!
I think her vocals could have been stronger and more fiesty at parts..

The beat its sick

It suits Rihannas Grundgy,Rock,Dominatrix,Black pointy nailed self
Bet the video will be hot

the song is uhhh very haunting. she does sound nice at least. lady gaga and rihanna are in their own lanes. rihanna WILL sell, and she’ll sell BIG. she’s at the point where she could sing the ABC’s and it would be a multi platinum seller.

Not what I expected at all, I Love It! I thought she would come with another pop dance track but she has nailed the choice of single to release first. I am not fond of the single cover, I think it could have been better. I do like this direction, its a little more grown, and I get the feeling she is singing about Chris but who knows.

not swinging enough for the first single for her “comeback” (did she go anywhere?)…the lyrics seems like it should be for a faster beat. the beat is so slow and with the lyrics…it’s almost depressing.

Okay like some I thought we were gonna get a club banga. HOWEVER THIS SONG IS THE MUTHAFUNKYMONKEY ISSSHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!. Not was I expected but the expected is what we dont need from Rihanna. I love it. She has her club banger out with her boss/brothers so lets ride with miss Rihanna as she sings Chris out of her system. Is it just me or has she been working on them VOCALS!!!!!!!!!!! LOL… I love it. I can’t stop listening to it.

Chris Browm- Transform ya vs Rihanna- Russian Roulette…I declare Chris Brown the WINNER!!! This is a big disappointment. I hope she has some better songs. Oh by the way Angel I hope Rihanna gives you half of her earnings from the album for keep her relevant LOL.

Hot, hot, hot this is one of her best songs, slay the competition riri

nuh uh …Rihanna this isn’t it!

..some bass behind it and a bit more uptempo and it would be hot for the clubs

any one else getting the lady gaga poker face vibes from this song?

lOVE IT! werk biotch

I gotta a question. Is she telling the Media/Gossip/Backlash, etc.. F*** YOU!
