[Rino 5,120]

I can't answer to this poll because I have never listened to any of her albums

But she has a couple of nice singles, I can tell it for sure ;)

[Sex Dreams 0]

Probably TTT. It sounds great and better than her old albums.

[Echo 326]

LOUD is flaw free. :legend:

[Versace Hooker 1]

Loud is my favorite album. I like Rihanna, I just think she releases too many singles.

[XMonsterMonster 1,555]

Red Lipstick all in da paper :devil:

[Sleigh Mama 0]

I've not heard the first 3....

All of her music is pretty easy to digest for me.... perhaps that is why she is played so incredibly much on the radio.

[Eulonzo 51]

Rated R takes a **** on your faves.

So amazing. :flutter:

[Nagini 179]

I'm not a huge fan of Rihanna but I liked a couple songs off Rated R and I enjoyed her Loud album. Can someone please explain what "What's my name" means?

I hate her new album though!

However, Umbrella>>>>>>> all her songs.

[Eulonzo 51]

I've never been a huge fan of TTT. It's my least favorite album of hers.

I only like WHYB, Red Lipstick, Cockiness, and TTT with Jay Z. The rest I don't like..

[J. Mafia 1]

I'm not a huge fan of Rihanna but I liked a couple songs off Rated R and I enjoyed her Loud album. Can someone please explain what "What's my name" means?

I hate her new album though!

However, Umbrella>>>>>>> all her songs.

she's telling a guy (Drake?) that she really likes him, and my guess is the "Oh na na, whuzmahname?" part is her, in a way, asking if he even cares enough about her to know her name.

and Fire Bomb slays all.

[Stra 6]

Rihanna will soon pass Janet Jackson and Madonna in top dance hits. While the Madonna apes focus their attention on Lady Gaga because she is more talented than Madonna and can actually sing, Rihanna is on her diddly way to surpass Madonna on the singles charts and total sale. Rihanna is already 1/3 there already.

[ToxicHot 6,438]

Loud is my favorite album. However, she has an amazing set of songs on each of her albums. They're all so amazing. :heart:

[Eulonzo 51]

Yes, it's Drake. They started dating pretty much after WMN became a single lol. Of course they didn't last that long though.

[Quick Sand 12]

The only ones I've heard in full are Loud and TTT. But of those, Loud.
