wiki is wrong

[Me. I Am Salman]

anyway I just went on that wiki page and then went to read the LOUD wiki and

Loud is a departure from the personal, melodramatic themes of Rated R.[20] Stylistically, it is a return to the Caribbean-inspired dance-pop of Rihanna's earlier work.[21] In an interview with MTV, Rihanna said "I wanted songs that were all Rihanna songs, that nobody else could do. I didn't want the generic pop record that Ke$ha or Lady Gaga or Katy Perry could just do and it'll work. I wanted a song, or songs, that were Rihanna songs, that only I could do, had that little West Indian vibe to it, had that certain tone, a certain sass and a certain energy."[22] During the promotion of Loud, Rihanna said that much of the music was born out of frustration. She explained: "When you go to a club and have to listen to bad music you revert to the liquor, because you want to have a good time. I hate having to skip a track. I wanted to make an album you can just play."[23]

ain't that the truth

Only Girl was definitely fresh sounding at the time of its release so idg your point

dancepop doesn't immediately mean generic. and OG and S&M were the only dancepop songs on the album

come back to me when Cher releases a song like Man Down or Cheers

please tell me how releasing a song like SOS in the pre-EDM climate of 2006 wasn't an artistic risk

Probably because dance music had already been popular since the 80's...

[Me. I Am Salman]

um no not in the US.. the 2000s were the Urban era for the charts, 80% of #1s were hip-hop/R&B songs. just look at 2004.. EVERY number one song was by a black artist

it all started to change in 2008, then more so in 2009 and by 2011 EDM was literally everywhere.

Okayyyy back on topic

[Me. I Am Salman]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billboard_Year-End_Hot_100_singles_of_2006

the only other electro songs I can see are Promiscuous and SexyBack, but SOS was released way before them

[Me. I Am Salman]

Okayyyy back on topic

educate yourself

[Me. I Am Salman]

tbh it could genuinely be argued that rihanna helped to popularise dance music in America and opened the doors for the likes of Ke$ha and Gaga

[Jordan.]

Madonna did Hung Up before SOS I guess we'll credit her for inventing dance pop

[Me. I Am Salman]

that didn't go to #1 in America. we belong together/gold digger/run it!, all hip hop or R&B songs, were number one instead during it's release.

[armand.kay]

lemmi perch and wait for Jordan's reply. http://cdn.thisisbigbrother.com/customavatars/avatar67510_446.gif

It went #1 WW & sold 9 million, have you changed the argument to Rihanna only influencing the US music scene now?

[Me. I Am Salman]

woah is there a need to be so aggressive :rolleyes: if you could read I clearly said she HELPED popularise dance music, I didn't say solely.

[Jordan.]

You said she took an artistic risk by releasing it when it clearly wasn't if Hung Up and other dance songs were doing well, are we done now? :douf:

[Me. I Am Salman]

It was only ONE song, she did take a risk
how many other black R&B/hip-hop/dancehall artists released an EDM song at the time?

[Jordan.]

Idfk but they all flopped after so you should blame Rihanna for the genres downfall

[Gstar]

idk if this is an interlude or not but it's perfection so i'm still gonna post
