Single Review: Rihanna: "Rehab"

And the hits keep pouring out from her third solo LP Good Girl, Gone Bad. This is her eighth single and possibly her second to last release off this album, Billboard.com reported that she is planning on releasing her last and final single "Breaking Dishes" off this CD in the new year. This song was written and produced by both Justin Timberlake and Timbaland. While "Rehab" has always been a highlight on the album, it does sound a bit dated, 18 months after its debut. The video was visually beautiful, the chemistry was great between her and Justin but it lacked fire. The single is currently at number 35 on the Billboard charts up 23 spots from last week.

Final verdict: Expect to see another top 10 single from this woman. As of today she is the most successful woman on billboard this decade followed by Beyonce, Mary J. Blige and Mariah Carey.

  2. Crazy. She even re-released that album didn't she?

    She is getting a little annoying. She can't even sing that great. I can't believe she is more successful than Beyonce. That boggles my mind, but oh well who has more Grammy's?

  3. I really think her song "Take a Bow" would of earned her a Grammy nomination from record of the year but it didn't and then I was sad :(

    I hope she brings her new album soon I'm tired of listening to this one LOL

    Her newest single that was released via YouTube is called "Bitch! I'm Special" and I didn't really like it, it was like a rock/r&b fusion that beyonce could pull off, but with rihannas delicate and soft voice it kinda got lost in the music.
