You are sure to have lived under a huge boulder of rock if you don’t know a thing about Rihanna. And you’re a complete waste of a man if you haven’t known any song that Rihanna released during her vibrant and well-received career. At an early age of 27, Rihanna had been one of the most influential and prominent female singers of the last decade, and through her sheer magnetic musicality, she had captured the hearts of millions as a respected singer and overall performer.
Robyn Rihanna Fenty, a Barbadian singer who has catapulted the seemingly impenetrable music industry with her undying passion to sing, is one of the most celebrated artists of all time, and her songs are just oozing with appeal that we are gaping whenever a new single had been released. Below are some of the most memorable Rihanna tracks that you should be putting on your easy listening playlist or you’re doomed to miss how great an artist she really is.
Shut Up and Drive might not be Rihanna’s best song to date, but the very tune of this “woman in the car” classic had been something that we thump our fingers and bobs our heads on every single time it’s in play. This song had been frequents of a lot of chart-topping systems like the Billboard Hot 100 and the UK Top Hits Chart.
Unfaithful is one of the first few songs that made Rihanna for how we see her now. Proving her flexibility in not only singing songs with upbeat tunes, she had belted this ballad about being the bad end of a supposedly working relationship. Rihanna’s vocal range and the risk of taking a different genre had sent fans drooling for more.
One of the best collaborations that she had, Hate That I Love You is an anthem for lots of people in confusing and toxic relationships. With Ne-Yo’s more than R&B vocals, and Rihanna’s impeccable take of the song, it is no wonder that this song had spent quite some time in staying on Billboard Top 100 peaking at the 7th spot in 2007.
We Found Love is more of an experience rather than a song as the resulting track with infamous DJ Calvin Harris take pleasure in giving listeners a real ‘beat’ to listen to Rihanna’s voice as a backdrop. From Rihanna’s 2011 album Talk That Talk, this is the singer’s 11th Hot 100 Chart Toppers, which are rare occurrence on the Billboard Hot 100. With the inescapable reality that Rihanna is so frigging famous at the time of the song’s release, it easily placed and cemented itself to be on the charts for 10 weeks straight.
No one had expected that Disturbia is such a disturbing piece of music as Rihanna have exceeded her limits and stepped out as an artist who can basically do everything for the craft. Disturbia is an avenue for Rihanna to show her many facets not only in singing, and weird singing on this specific track, but also in producing suitable music videos that will do justice to the song.
Some of the other songs that you might want to revisit and add to your playlist are Love The Way You Lie with Eminem, Live Your Life with T.I., Umbrella, her women-empowered song Take A Bow, the cheesy You Da One in a very head bobbing tempo, the melancholic We Ride with her vocal prowess again in full display, Rude Boy and see her with a live lion on the music video, one of her first tracks like S.O.S and S&M, Don’t Stop The Music and Pon De Replay.
