ReidOne 12,427 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Not sure why I've waited so long but tonight I'm listening to Rihanna's 'ANTI' for the first time and I'm blown away, for real. So many 90's TLC feels!!! There are some jams on this album. It's like the perfect revival of 90's R&B at times. I love this!!! Kiss It Better Same Ol' Mistakes Desperado (giving me BANKS teas) Yeah, I Said It (giving me BANKS teas) James Joint (Stevie Wonder teas!!! yaaasss!!!) ..ok, I'll stop there... I am loving it!! It's far from flawless, but it's significantly more interesting than anything else I would expect from RiRi at this stage. 10's for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReidOne 12,427 Posted July 25, 2016 Author Share Posted July 25, 2016 BTW, the part of "Never Ending" when she says "So I can feel alive" has the exact same melody of Dido's sample from Eminem's "Stan." Anyone else hear it? Probably not on purpose, but ... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Temptation 11,209 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 It doesn't feel 90s at all to me. More like a mix of the 60s, 80s and early 2000s. It's a good album, Rihanna's best since Loud. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Higher 2,406 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 I've been obsessed with it since I heard the leaked snippets from Tidal. I hope she continues in this direction. Finally feeling free for the night, I got no worries. Finally got a claim on my life, baby, c'est la vie. ☄️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just came back to this thread to post this: "Work" is the LG5 lead single that GGD does not deserve. It is THE jam. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely 'Crazy Sexy Cool' vibes happening here at times. At least for me! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
artRaver 3,188 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 I love James Joint. It gives me Stevie Wonder and Frank Ocean's "Channel Orange"'vibes, I wish it was longer. ✿ cherry blossom girl ✿ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FATCAT 55,827 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 I'm not a fan of her covering Same Ol' Mistakes, because it's almost exactly the same. But yes, the album isn't the crap chute most paint it to be. Purr more, hiss less. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antonio 27,723 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Such a bummer BBHMM wasn't included on the album It would've smashed. I still adore it though. 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐞 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
