The song “Fading” is also reminiscent of Rihanna’s “Take A Bow” from her album, Good Girl Gone Bad. More notable tracks on the album include “Man Down” in which Rihanna takes a trip back to her Bajan roots with strictly reggae instrumentals and vocals. The song, however, not only features more vocals from Rihanna, but also another verse from Eminem. I felt it couldn’t beat the original,” Rihanna said to MTV News. “When I first heard the idea about doing a part two, I was completely against it. Loud also features a part two to Eminem’s “Love the Way You Lie.” Rihanna opens the song singing “Eenie, meenie, minie, mo” which establishes the playful feel of the track. Thus, it goes without saying that this single is the bubbliest song on the album. Rihanna also collaborated with Nicki Minaj on the track “Raining Men”. Besides that, the tracks have no connection to each other and the record feels like a greatest hits compilation. Both Caribbean and R&B influences are also distinguished on this track. One of the biggest pop albums of the last decade, ‘Loud’ is an effervescent mix. Although Drake fell short of his notable lyrical abilities, it was Rihanna’s vocals that paved the way for the song’s success. Loud opens up with pop track, “S&M” in which Rihanna sings “I may be bad but I’m perfectly good at it,” reminding fans of her bad girl persona that she established with her third studio album, Good Girl Gone Bad.Īlthough Rihanna’s first single from Loud, “Only Girl In The World,” lured people in to her new project with its retro appeal, it was Rihanna’s second single, “What’s My Name” featuring Drake, that skyrocketed to number one on the Billboard Hot 100. So far, most critics and fans agree noting Rihanna’s departure from the more dark and edgy, Rated R, her fourth studio album. It’s really, really sassy and it has just an unforgettable energy,” Rihanna said to ET. Corresponding with her new look Rihanna’s fifth studio album, Loud was released on November 16.
