October 8, 201114 yr Member Absolutely. I'll be honest and say that I've never been a huge fan of hers, but she has some damn catchy music. It honestly doesn't even sound like her singing in this one. I'm not either. She certainly doesn't have any kind of good voice. Just a distinct one and some damn catchy music. She and/or her Executive Producers always get the best people to work with her.
October 9, 201114 yr Author Member Rihanna is only one of the few that I actually buy their CD at the stores. The CD is awesome!
October 12, 201114 yr Member It's nice to see her working with Calvin Harris even though he's pretty unknown here. Love his album, and of course the stuff he's written and produced for some of my fave dance pop divas (though you definitely hear his style in all his productions) like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nj6IKIPteuE&ob=av2e http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSMus837cxA
October 20, 201114 yr Member I love it. It's catchy. Whatever people might say about her, she certainly has a lot of songs that play in your head for days, lol.
October 21, 201114 yr Administrator I really like "I Found Love" too. I can't believe this will be her 3rd album in 3 years. She sure doesn't slow down. LOL
October 21, 201114 yr Member This is Rihanna's 10th #1 single, which ties her for fourth place with Janet Jackson for most #1 singles by a female artist. 1. Mariah Carey - 18 #1 singles 2. Madonna - 12 #1 singles 3. Whitney Houston - 11 #1 singles 4. Janet Jackson and Rihanna - 10 #1 singles It's also interesting to note that Rihanna now holds the record for the shortest time between an artist’s first and 10th single, which took her four years, 11 months and two weeks. Please forgive me for my rudeness, but when you stated that Rihanna holds the record for the shortest amount of time in-between her first and tenth chart-toppers, I am assuming that you meant this record only applies to solo female vocalists (as opposed to all artists). That's because Elvis Presley accomplished this feat in less than 2.5 years, and the Beatles did it in less than two. And if we limit this to just all female artists, the Supremes still hold the record, since a period of less than three years elapsed from the time of their first #1 hit to their tenth. Thanks for filling us in on Rihanna's incredible chart success. Given that I have almost no interest in today's pop music, I don't currently follow the Billboard pop chart and therefore had no idea just how popular she was.
November 5, 201114 yr Member BILLBOARD: Rihanna rises to her 11th No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart, as "We Found Love," featuring Calvin Harris, ascends 2-1 with Airplay Gainer honors in its sixth week on the survey. Rihanna is just the seventh artist in the Hot 100's 53-year history to tally at least 11 leaders, joining the Beatles (20), Mariah Carey (18), Michael Jackson (13), Madonna (12), the Supremes (12) and Whitney Houston (11). She passes Janet Jackson and Stevie Wonder, each with 10 No. 1s. Among women, Rihanna, thus, moves into a third-place tie with Houston for most toppers, after only Carey and Madonna. Hot 100 Top 10 1. Rihanna "We Found Love" 2. Adele "Someone Like You" 3. LMFAO "Sexy And I Know It" 4. Maroon 5 "Moves Like Jagger" 5. Foster The People "Pumped Up Kicks" 6. Gym Class Heroes "Stereo Hearts" 7. David Guetta "Without You" 8. LMFAO "Party Rock Anthem" 9. Cobra Starship "You Make Me Feel..." 10. Kelly Clarkson "Mr. Know It All"

Y&RWorldTurner, thank you for updating us on Rihanna's latest accomplishment. Like I said earlier, I would normally not have any idea about this, sicne I am not interested in today's pop music. I sincerely apologize if I offended you when I asked you to earlier clarify whether (in a previous post) you were comparing a certain accomplishment(the time in-between Rihanna's first and tenth chart-toppers) among just female solo artists or among all artists. I was not at all trying to be a smartass, and feel badly if I came across that way. When you left Elvis Presley off the list of artists who did not have at least eleven number one hits on the Hot 100, you were indeed correct. That's because 10 of Elvis' 17 chart-toppers were on Billboard's "Best Sellers in Stores Chart" (the precedessor to the Hot 100, which debuted in August 1958). Edited November 5, 201114 yr by Max
