Bette Davis 12,742 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 She sounds drunk and it took how many writers to make this song? I hope the style of the teasers and visuals from her ANTI diary site actually show in her music instead of sounding generic like Work. It'd be awesome to see her do something different and darker. Cold as ice cream, but still as sweet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a house-y beat and she repeats work 4878374 times obviously intending for it to be catchy NME.com describes "Work" as song with underground vibe that's what I'm talking about when I'm sayin' "experimental. She obviously does sth different to her previous works.

Awakened M 3,056 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Not lead single worthy at ALL. I'm not feeling it, Rih. I'm not getting any sleep tonight because I woke up to a beautiful life. I'm awake. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAC 1,942 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I think the hype/expectation is a big part of why some are disappointed. I am kind of liking it to be honest. Might take some more listens to really get into it though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsterofFame 1,786 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I too was a bit underwhelmed given that this is Rihanna's comeback single, but after BBHMM and AO, anything seems better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's extra auto tuned with barely recognizable lyrics at time... Sorry buddy but if she has an experimental album this isn't reflective of that.

FATCAT 60,100 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I took my time with this song, as I have found some of Rihanna's work flavorful in the past. This is what I've established so far: The song is not special, but it has potential. It's definitley a little generic, and seems almost forced, but it's definitley not a bop til' you drop tune. BBHMM tried to be something you could pop to, but this is more like a slow jam. Overall: I'm dissapointed, but it's what I expected. She most likly new that she was hyping un-hype material and felt in the crosshairs, now she's just given up. This kitten over here (meow) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Temptation 11,209 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 As Rihanna shows old media like NME is totally irrelevant nowadays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdAstra 2,649 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 It's like she decided to take a handful of muscle relaxers and record a single..not feeling it at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
