DiscoHeaven23 35,007 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Well, just like the title says, I miss Rihanna. When Rihanna wasn't at the VMAs it got me thinking about how I miss her being around. I mean goodness, back in the day she was releasing an album a year and was always around (at events, on the radio, in interviews). Then she took her break between Unapologetic and ANTI (minus a few underperforming singles released in 2015). And then ANTI dropped and it was Rihanna's world in 2016. Her last single from ANTI, "Love on the Brain", wrapped up its time in the Top 10 in early 2017. We saw her follow this era up with a feature on DJ Khaled's very successful "Wild Thoughts". She also had a feature on N.E.R.D.'s "Lemon" in late 2017, but that song wasn't exactly a hit. She's pretty much been MIA the past year. The last time she did a sit down interview that wasn't for Fenty Beauty/Fenty Puma, was on Ellen on February 4, 2016. Sure there's been singers that have been gone longer, but this is Rihanna. I'm used to having her around. Can't wait for the new album. REGGAE/DANCEHALL COME TO ME. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alextruper17 8,908 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I miss Pop Rihanna. The actual is just meh for me. I still remember when she said that she didn't want to do a generic song that Lady Gaga would sing. Ironically, that's exactly what she did and the Rihanna I miss.

DrKindnessKunt1999 6,062 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 She’s working on two albums (one commercial, one experimental) so I feel like you won’t have to feel hungry for Rihanna for too long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikvs 2,576 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I miss actual pop stars being popular. The Gaga - Katy - Rihanna group. Pop music was at it's best, pop culture was fun to follow, there was not that much drama, MVs were enjoyable and creative, music was fun, cultural impact was made with outfits, hairstyles... Now pop music is super bland IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep on wondering if those days will ever come back, like are we just going through a phase or did things really shift and pop music isn't going to be the same again... At the end of the day even if it's different i just want it to be FUN !! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
