YEEZY WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT ;_;
There's almost no way that a Drake song could actually be improved by adding Madonna to the mix.
I know. In a way, I'm looking forward to hearing the new Gaga + RedOne tunes, but at the same time, there's a chance of those songs being already outdated simply because he got stuck doing the same sound over and over again.
Let's hope he updated his sound at least a bit.
Well, this is going to be interesting.

The gotta give Gaga credit for being able to turn what could have been mediocre into what she's made with him. Just no half-ass efforts like Judas (though, I know some of you stan for Judas hard). I still do like DJ White Shadows stuff on BTW too, though.
45S is not a flop.

People's standards are way too high. No person can keep a track record like that up forever. There are always going to be little dips here and there. Give her credit for taking an artistic risk with this one instead of just making singles based on what the trends are. Plus this is an acoustic song with Paul McCartney. The visual isn't really that imperative this time, so who cares about the views.
Also, 45Seconds is excellent. But I guess that's a non-factor for Rihanna stanS
True, it's not like it's flopping like Through The Rain or Not Myself Tonight or Your Body.

Wait which one's Through The Rain, lol
The one that peaked at #81
FourFiveSeconds is on Applause levels in terms of commercial performance so far. People probably expected better but it's not really draggable. It's decent enough.
Anyway my fave snippet is "Higher". Then "Bajan Oxygen" and "A Night". I'm not here for "Promised". Hope it was axed from the alberm. No one wants a Pour It Up 2.0

The people who wants a pour it up 2.0 the most are the ones that are complaining that r8 will have no bops & that rih fails at doing the "real music" thing because of her "screechy" vocals. That said, i'm here for at least one urban/ratchet song on the album.

Bajan Oxygen is the only snippet I've listened to. I like it. Much better than 45S.

Idk about you but I heard Applause a hell of a lot more than I've heard 45S. Commercials, on the radio, in clubs...Mau ®;154906096 said:
I haven't heard 45S anywhere but the internet.

If 45s can't got #1 I doubt she'll get one this era
Other than Rated R and her debut, all of her lead singles have hit #1 and then performance usually drops from there
tbh good, maybe she'll go back to making decent shit and not this drivel

Was the kiss it better snippet hidden or something because i didn't hear first it until last night,
They are a great combo indeed and RedOne arguably hasn't reached those heights with any other artist (I'm not counting J. Lo's Oh The Horror).
Let's just hope both bring their A-game for her upcoming album
Btw, I'm no fan of "Judas" either because it's a lesser "Bad Romance" rehash IMHO.

The more I listen to Judas (and it's been a lot) the more I realize how derivative of Bad Romance it is.
My best friend really likes the Rihanna snippets. Just when I thought he couldn't sink any lower than 1989.
I don't know if our friendship can survive this.
You friend seems to have great taste. You should keep him around.

Out of the five snippets you didn't like a single one?

The Judas chant in Judas and the Gaga chant in Bad Romance are pretty much identical.

I've only heard that whiskey one and American Oxygen
Anyway, no.

Took you this long?
Judas was hailed as Bad Romance 2.0 before it was even released.

What an iconic time. I remember streaming leaked audio of Judas, watching the Mugler show for the rihmixes of Government Hooker and Scheiße.
She had it all then ARTPOP happened.

this is probably why you're a gaga stan, clear hearing problems
they both start with a sung intro with a kind of wooah-ohh-ohhh thing
they both have a chanty section immediately afterwards with 'gaga' in it
their verses are both kind of chanty, shouting bits
they both have thumpy drum lines and that kind of swoopy sci-fi synth sound in
the choruses of both are sung after the chanty thumpy verses
it's pretty much an evolution of the same sound
