DemeLarell 931 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Ugh. Some of you guys worry about the wrong thing. At it the end of the day it's music. Enjoy it or kick rocks. People argue so much about little things on here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Didymus 34,378 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 She can show off some vocal talent but dear lord what a horribly written and produced song. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Temptation 11,209 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 I like it because it sounds like every other Sia song and nothing more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
My Little Phoney 658 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 why does she always sound like a less-talented Sia when Sia writes for her? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her voice has grown and progressed since she started at 16. Do Sia and her sound alike? Yes, but if you listen to the progression of her voice from Rated-R then TTT and finally Unapologetic. Songs like Te Amo, Hard, MadHouse, Wait is Over, all have parts where she sounds like she did in Diamonds. She didn't go from SOS to Diamonds overnight. She has hit all those notes and tones before. Where as Sia never spoke with a carribean accent, but decided to dawn one on Chandelier. Anyways none of this matters. Next Year Sia and Rihanna will be collecting their Oscars. When you listen to Diamonds you can clearly hear Rihanna emulating Sia's throaty vocals, her fast vibrato, her occasional mumble and in some live performances (of Diamonds) Rihanna even lets her voice crack the same way Sia does. But "Sia sounds like Rihanna" because her accent bears a faint resemblance to Rihanna's "Caribbean accent" which to a certain extent has been there at least since Titanium (?). I don't see why you're denying facts, both Diamonds and Sledgehammer are heavily influenced by Sia's vocal technique. Rihanna's discography is diverse, because she doesn't have a specific sound, it varies depending on the people writing/producing her songs. But that shouldn't even be a point of criticism, not every singer can adapt to different sounds and styles as effortlessly as Rihanna. she's a party girl with a bad habit for drugs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryhanna 3,507 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 I like her vocals, but at the same time, they are very Sia-like. Either way, I like the song. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichelMonster 343 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 It sounds like a reject from This Is Acting. I thought Rihanna was beyond these little quick generic hits for GP, but I guess anything for relevance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to go and listen to Rihanna's discography especially since you think she copied Sia on Diamonds that was typical Rihanna Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, you're not adding anything new to the discussion and I can't really expect you to be unbiased, ever since you claimed Work deserved to win VOTY at the BET, instead of Formation, so I won't bother to reiterate my point. she's a party girl with a bad habit for drugs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
