Maybe she didn't want it on her own album, you know, because it was supposed to be so "anti" commercial, but she was more than happy to work with him on a hit featuring her on his own album, to guarantee she could still have a hit attached to her name even if everything from Anti flopped, which it was doing until Work came along. And I'm talking in the grand scheme of things. Work really hasn't sold that much - it was purely streaming that kept it where it was. If you look at the sales, songs that never went #1 got more than that. And in much of the world, it didn't go to the top, including the UK, which used to always be a major market for her. And yes, she is fading. She can't seem to get more than one hit per album anymore. KIB and NM have both failed because they weren't as commercial and didn't have a rap feature. She only has success when she does what's expected of her and she's not doing that now. Rihanna's slowly fading now, it's clear. She's going to fade even more if she takes more time making this next album too. It's just the music industry is desperate to keep her successful with help from the likes of Calvin. But her luck is almost out. She'll be done by the time she's 30 seeing as her success is completely based around her youth, looks and relevancy to young people.

Calvin asked her, they're friends, that's what friends do. Maybe they flopped because there's was NO PROMO. Streaming is the future of music. She's already co-writing her next album (3 songs have been newly registered to her BMI) and she said she'll never make her fans wait that long again during the AWT. 

Love on the Brain, Higher, Concideration and others are totally geared for young people. Doesn't Gaga make music mostly for young people and when was her last hit? 

Seethe.

Heard the premiere on the radio this morning and omg I was taken away to a different planet, IT'S AMAZING  The "you" repetition part does get a bit too much for me but it's also catchy, there's a part where she says it a millisecond too early for me I guess, it doesn't gel aurally for me for that split second but the rest is awesome  That little hiccup could grow on me though, makes it different and less "perfect"  

CAN'T WAIT FOR THE MUSIC VIDEO  

Not trying to be rude but is there something in this world that you dislike or hate? 

[The Child 18,997]

I said it yesterday, it's basic as **** but since it's by Rihanna and since it's generic, it will smash.

[IamChromatica 2,025]

It's basically the snippet repeated about five times to make the whole song 

[Glory 2,247]

The lyrics are so lazy, it's repetitive, pretty lame.

But i can't help my self from loving it, i always fall for Popanna. Her voice sounds so well on these kind of beats, she's the true queen of featuring. Get ready to hear all summer .

People chewing with their mouth open, half of the songs on Lana's Ultraviolence, and Dope

I might be weird but since I'm getting bored of the whole trap trend thing + let me take myself very seriously music which won't make you dance (alessia cara says hi), i'm quite happy to have a "basic hous-ish dance-ish" song, like i don't always want big original masterpieces : i want those ones from gaga, but rihanna i just wanna dance and sing to it during the summer
