Question How has Rihanna not burnt out yet?

1. Album out EVERY year
2. Single out every month or two
3. Always touring

Is she on speed or something? She's bound to explode sooner or later and when she does it wont be pretty

I know. Just shows how manufactured she is. She never explores new territory with her music or strives for credibility, just continually churns out the same stuff that isn't any different to your Britney's/Kesha's/Perry's.

Yet Gaga is the one we're always hearing about being exhausted lol.

She's past her best imo, 07-08 was her best era. I saw a couple of interviews with her and she sounds to cocky for her good Its like she thinks shes the next Madonna...

Her songs nowadays are okaaay but nothing special

She puts out singles and albums, but she doesn't really promote them like other artists, radio just sort of lap it up and thats what keeps her top of the charts.

That's probably come from spending all this time in a music bubble and not going outside of it and relaxing. She's definately past her best, I loved her back when she did songs like Umbrella and Unfaithful, then she went down the typical "LOOK AT ME, I'M NEARLY NAKED!" route

Her peak was with Rated R to be honest.

But the only reason she stays at the top of the charts is because her team of producers just put out whatever's trendy with the charts. She doesn't really try anything edgy (though that could be debated with Rated R) but rather keeps to the sound that the masses will definitely love.

I get the feeling that she doesn't really put any heart and soul into the songs anymore, it's as if someone hands her a lyric sheet and she just sings it. This new album she has out is absolutely terrible, the name 'Loud' describes it perfectly, her last album was actually okayish, I'd agree with that

People are starting to get tired of her already, if she carries on churning out albums every year then it won't end well. She doesn't have hardly any creative involvement with her work either, she's such a manufactured artist.

I've heard rumours that she's already doing her next album. At work we always have the radio on, and her songs are ALWAYS on, I used to like her, but, there's just been too much of her

New album is released next month. She has no writing credits on it which really surprises me.

Nah that's the lead single off her new album.

But the lead single off the new one was released less than a month after Cheers (Drink To That) which was the 5th single off her last album

Ah right, but that's how it is, it's impossible to tell the difference between the two albums, they sound exactly the same

I don't really mind as much as I used to... partly because I don't listen to the radio. Plus her songs are a lot catchier than the majority of her peers.

If you did listen to the radio, you'd wanna shoot yourself they don't just play her new single, they play her last five too! Even all the way back to "Whats mah name"

I know. I do love her music because it's so insanely catchy but my god, she's churning it all out so quickly it's unreal!

S&M is awful :/

I end up loving 99% of everything Rihanna makes anyway I just wish it had a bit more heart. No doubt I'll love this album. Loud was a disappointment though. Complicated is so screamy and Skin is barely a song.

Rated R was a masterpiece and Good Girl Gone Bad was a very good pop album.

She knows how to reinvent herself. When she started she was girl next door (Pon De Replay, SOS etc), then she turned a bit 'edgy' (Russian Roulette, Disturbia) and now shes a dirty slag (S&M, We Found Love)

I do like her though, shes got some really good songs out

I just wish she'd take a break, she doesn't need to bring out so much music, if she took a year out to make a new album, it'd probably be a lot better than her recent stuff. It's seriously seeming like she's starting to reach breaking point, it can't be healthy.

I totally disagree with everyone else moaning about how she won't go away - going away is what precisely kills off a career like Rihanna's. If you disappear, there is someone there willing to take your place. Ke$ha will struggle to get a look in when she comes back, considering we have Rihanna, Katy Perry, Lady GaGa, Beyoncé, Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears and god knows how many other solo female artists constantly churning out music to remind people that they exist and to try and establish themselves as the most popular solo female artist. I say good on her for being a workaholic, if she wasn't then she'd be nowhere.
