Drin Lon 7,875 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I just wanted to say that after listening to ANTI, to me it seems a bit like a half-assed album, especially when you think about all the buzz around it before it came out. I actually applaud Rihanna's team for not letting it flop, cause honestly it could have. I think that Work really kinda of saved the album's commercial success, but anyway, let's get back to my thoughts on the album. There are songs on the album that last 1-2 minutes, even though I want to hear more from them, and there's a song that lasts 6 minutes even though it has no reason to be that long. It just seems lazy. Some songs seem a bit un-finished, but maybe that's just me, so I won't really go on about that. And lastly there's no apparent theme to the album. It just seems like a collection of r&b~pop songs(which honestly aren't that good either...). Like, I don't know, the album seemes very random and left no impression to me. Like, I thought Gaga was being a bit lazy with Joanne, but honestly, no. Joanne was made in 6 months, and to me it is much better than ANTI,while ANTI has been teased for a pretty long time... Maybe I was just expecting more. Imo even Glory is better than ANTI... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loyalty 3,904 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Well tbh it seemed like ANTI was put together in a few weeks. It has a couple fillers but has some good songs that actually stand out like. Kiss It Better, Work, Needed me, Love on the Brain Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Surrealist 27,470 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Anti is better than Glory, and it's also Rihanna's best album. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas P 18,479 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Love on the brain higher and KISS it better are some of the best songs of 2016. Glory could never. I’m a simple guy to please, if you like Melodrama, we chill. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AM98GJ 3,086 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I bop to Glory but it certainly isn't better than ANTI.....like....what? Kiss It Better alone destroys Glory Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daredevil 2,133 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 The album is fine. I especially love Same Ol' Mistakes, Woo, Desperado and Consideration Meanwhile Glory only has one good song: liar Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHS 4,714 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I do agree a couple songs of songs look unfinished but overall it is a good album and better than Glory in my opinion. Consideration, Desperado and Love On The Brain are masterpieces What I don't understand is Same Ol' Mistakes. I love that song but why did Rihanna decide to make a cover of Tame Impala?

It just seems lazy. the 6 minute song it's a cover, and it was left almost identical to the original, and has basically the same length. but most importantly, it's pointless to judge a song based on the length... nothing wrong to have a couple of interlude songs on an album. anyway, I think it's one of the best albums of 2016, and to say that Glory is better is blasphemy, I'm sorry.
