Am I the only one who did not like Rihanna's voice in that song? Hell I felt that Rikki Ekko practically carried that song. Its a beautiful song. I just wish he had found somebody else to sing it with him. Rihanna need to understand that yes the song is an emotional song bu you still need to sound good singing it. If you guys think I am wrong. Listen to the song again. (objectively). Listen to Rihanna's voice in the song and hear how flat she sounds. Hey I am Rihanna fan just like you guys but if the shoe doesn't fit.

I think that as far as Beyonce goes she needs to understand that times are moving on. She was once our Queen B. However there are new players on the field, players who have usurped her. It is time for her to step aside gracefully and allow a new generation to take over instead of telling them to Bow Down. She does need to humble herself. She needs to celebrate the new generation of artists and accept her role in history for paving the way for the hip pop singers of tomorrow. Controversial statement- She is like a Madonna that refuses to die or go away. We will always remember her for the music she once created and perhaps from time to time she will probably top the charts again but step aside like Celine Dion and Whitney Houston please! We will still love you and respect you!
