So like, what are everyone’s top Rihanna songs?

I expect well thought out answers. From all of you!

 

FourFiveSeconds 

What a fucking tune. I can’t not sing along at the top of my lungs to it. And I get. I’m pretty much always about four or five seconds from loosing my cool. So it’s basically my theme song. 

 

Kiss It Better

Do I honestly need to explain myself? Arguably her best song and the biggest snub at the 2017 Grammys. 

 

Bitch Better Have My Money

This song still goes off. Iconic. To this day arguably one of her biggest bangers. Everytime I hear “YA’ll SHOULD KNOW ME WELL ENOUGH” I lose my freaking mind. 

 

Wait Your Turn

Rated R’s lead single that never was. So different and fresh even today. I wish they had put a huge push behind this and supported it as the lead single. It is the perfect opener to the era and the album. The backbone of the album. The attitude. This was the death of Rihbot. 

 

Numb

Theres just something about this song that drives me nuttty in a good way. Her delivery, the BEAT, and I’m in the minority who loves Em’s verse. When the beat kicks in it is impossible to keep still. 

 

Do Ya Thang

I HATE that this was a bonus track. If only TTT had not been released in the height of the EDM craze we may have seen it on the standard and a single 😞 

 

We Found Love

I don’t need to explain this one. Happy/sad perfection. Euphoric. Peak of EDM/Pop crossover etc. 

 

Disturbia

Even though this spent two weeks at number 1, I feel like it tends to be forgotten in her catalogue. It really is the closest thing we have to a modern day Thriller in terms of theme. Love the auto tune. 

 

Consideration

Two of my faves on one track. SZA brings this other worldly feeling to this song and it’s a perfect opener for Anti. 

 

Honorable Mentions:

Needed Me

Diamonds

Fire Bomb

Desperado

Work

Nothing Is Promised 

Love Without Tradgedy/Mother Mary

Half of Me 

Fool In Love

Whats My Name 

Man Down

G4L

Cold Case Love 

Umbrella

14. Cry - There's just something about this song that feels so 2000s to me.

13. Kiss It Better - Underrated. So much attitude. So fucking smooth.

12. Close To You - Heart fucking breaking. Vocals are maybe some of her strongest ever to be honest.

11. Unfaithful - Much like cry, it's so 2000s. That chorus is... a murderer.

10. Complicated - I love the instrumental. I love the lyrics. It's such a happy sad song.

9. Hard - From the first time I heard this track, I called it my angry song. SO MUCH ATTITUDE. I love it.

8. Push Up On Me - Probably the first Rihanna non single I was obsessed with. Should have been a single in my opinion.

7. Where Have You Been - Should have been even bigger. It's a MONSTER of a track.

6. California King Bed - I love mid tempo Rihanna. It's just a beautiful song.

5. Don't Stop The Music - Better than Umbrella... there, I said it.

4. We Found Love - HUGE. Her best ~pop~ song, in my opinion.

3. Fire Bomb - Should have been a single. Should have been huge. That chorus is EPIC.

2. What's My Name?

There is something about her delivery, the lyrics, the instrumental. Everything about this song is perfect (I prefer a Drake-less version). OH NA NA!

1. Needed Me

FUCKED ME UP. THE MUSIC VIDEO FUCKED ME UP. I RELATE TO THIS SONG ON ANOTHER LEVEL. PRODUCTION IS PERFECTION. RIHANNA AT HER BEST VOCALLY, LYRICALLY, PRODUCTION, ATTITUDE, ETC. If you disagree, cool, but fuck off.
