Not a fan of the song, I find myself turning it off midway through, not because of the lyrics (Ne-yo did his thing) but because of her voice (it’s not the best for ballads, IMO) but I do think this video is great artistically… Go Riri….

Stop it with who’s going to kill themselves over this. If she can’t influence any one to become a talented artist, how can she convince them to off themselves?

You’re giving her too much power where she has none. She can’t even save herself.

overrated and garbage

WHAT IS THIS VIDEO ABOUT

The Russian Roulette theme is important in terms of programming as it is a mechanism used in suicide programming; which ties into the general aspect of this (and the overarching theme of the video) with Rihanna risking her life, willing to die for her “boyfriend”/handler. If we are using the whole Chris Brown domestic abuse example as a reference here; Russian roulette probably symbolizes the mental state of women who stay in abusive relationships (which is very much associated with and quite similar to mind control programming; it’s obviously difficult for some people to comprehend but ‘mind control’ extends to simple manipulation of a partner through verbal abuse as well as the extreme end of the scale in trauma-based mind control programming). In the room she is playing Russian roulette with her boyfriend (this another symbolic dissociative hallucination/dream scene, shown by how the video cuts from her in a dissociative state in the cell and the Russian roulette room) also note the spinning fan/air vent, which I believe is conscious symbolism if you take into account the revolver used in Russian roulette where you spin the chamber to play the game (more spinning/dissociation suggestions and confusion having no idea which exact chamber the bullet is in) before causing severe head trauma if it goes off.

There are her shadowy tormentors, who keep her locked away and subject her to all sorts of torture including gassing her with red smoke and setting a cat on her [kitten dehumanization programming is another common theme in this video]. There are scenes of her twisting and pawing in a padded cell. At one point, she is mowed down by a speeding car.

Then we are shown her tattooed/branded hand over a small blood pool. It symbolically shows scratch/claw marks on one of the square panels of the wall (grid pattern symbolizes the mind split into compartments; grids are used by programmers to ‘chart’ the victim’s alters/programs/triggers/codes/etc); suggesting dehumanization and traumatization (like someone locked in a room attempting to scratch at the door in vein, or having gone insane and are attempting to scratch there way through the wall which seems to be the case here), the camera moves from the scratch marks to the prison guard/handler showing they have caused by his abuse/programming of Rihanna.

The slave handlers dressed in black (who are made to look like programmed individuals themselves, which is often how it works in reality with programmers being victims themselves due to the multigenerational aspect of Monarch mind control) with Rihanna looking in the two-way mirror of her ‘padded’/programming cell.

Fire is shown subliminally symbolizing the primal/primitive aspect of all this programming (to the reptilian brain [most primitive part of the brain] sex and violence are essentially the same) involving a lot of sex, violence and dominance (which is also associated with the reptilian brain; the primal need to stay alive, to attain and keep hold of territory [which you could argue includes women, in order to keep their family going]).

Then a remote control is shown used by the controller on the other side of the glass, implying Rihanna is ‘remotely controlled’. Note as the gas is released (red again symbolizing fire, primal symbolism) her hood covers her face, showing her to be faceless; which is more mind control symbolism of ‘facelessness’, loss of identity/sense of self/personality in programming (more horrific than it sounds).

YES!!!! This video was HOT and she looks beautiful!!!

@28, Have you ever thought her “pon de replay” videos weren’t really who she is and was what they wanted her to market? Maybe it’s the other way around. Just like Pink had to come out with the first album she did so it would sell, but that wasn’t who she was. Maybe Ri is letting her real self out now that she has made it.

The music is controlling her. When the nazi guy turned on the music she woke up.

What’s Wrong With Her?????

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE FREAKING LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YES RIHANNA THIS IS HOW YOU DO A GREAT VIDEO! YOU NEED TO GO SAVE BEYONCE AND LADY GAGA BECAUSE THEY DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THEMSELVES OVER IN THAT OTHER VIDEO.
YOU ARE NOT SHAKING AND POPPING YOUR LADY PARTS ALL AROUND AND YOUR VIDEO IS STILL HOTTER THAN BEYONCE’S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS IS HOW A REAL ARTIST DOES HER THING! RIHANNA IS SUCH AN INSPIRATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes she looks very pretty here. Her body is perfect and her skin is flawless! I love the styling in this video too. Hawt shoes! Great legs! Great song. I like it more and more every time I listen to it. I think Rih’s voice sounds great on this song. I don’t know why people are saying she can’t sing. Her voice sounds great to me. I’ll be purchasing Rated R when it’s released. I heard there are lots of other great songs on it too.

Also I agree that this video is better than any of Beyonce’s videos that I have seen all year. 3 girls dancing in leotards is quite unimaginative. I prefer videos like this that go along with the song. Good job Rihanna.

JUST WATCHED THE VIDEO AGAIN AND IT IS STILL FIRE! ANOTHER MASTERPIECE FROM PRINCESS RIHANNA!

Dont get me wrong she is a very pretty girl but she is out right talking about suicide. Do yall realize how many people this is going to affect in a negative manner. I dont support it at all and I truly dislike the video due to its content. SMH

ANOTHER PERSON WITH NO CONCEPT OF CREATIVITY TAKING THE SONG LITERALLY. RIHANNA SPOKE ABOUT THIS ON 20/20 WITH DIANE SAWYER TO ALL THE PEOPLE THAT KEEP SPREADING THE SAME FALSE RUMOR. THE SONG IS ABOUT LOVE. RIHANNA SAID LOVE IS LIKE RUSSIAN ROULETTE IT IS A DANGEROUS GAME YOU PLAY. WE ALL KNOW THAT LOVE IS UNPREDICTABLE AND IT’S A GAMBLE. WHY CAN’T PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THAT? STOP TRYING TO MAKE IT BE WHAT YOU WANT IT TO BE AND TAKE IT FOR WHAT THE PERSON SINGING THE SONG TELLS YOU IT IS ABOUT.

PLEASE IF YOU HAD ANY SENSE YOU WOULD UNDERSTAND THAT THIS SONG GIVES OFF THE CONCEPT OF SUICIDE. I COULD CARE LESS OF WHAT HER PERSONAL MEANING OF THE SONG IS; IT’S HOW IT COMES ACROSS TO THE LISTENER. WHAT ABOUT THE KIDS THAT LOOK UP TO HER WHO DON’T KNOW THE TRUE MEANING OF THE SONG AND ONLY TAKE IT FOR WHAT THEY HEAR. WHAT ABOUT THAT PERSON WHO IS IN A DARK PLACE IN THERE LIFE AND ALL THEY NEED TO HEAR IS THIS SONG TALKING ABOUT PULLING A DAM TRIGGER. COME ON MAN LETS GET SERIOUS HERE.

Rihanna voice is quite refreshing. Not a warp women voice!

THIS SONG IS AMAZING< THE VIDEO IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING and CREATIVE!!! RIhanna’s voice is so beautiful in this song!!!!! KEEP IT GOING RIH RIH!!! U SOUND AMAZING…
