She's capable of good songs, but only with the help of other people. See: Run This Town with Jay-Z.

"All of the Lights" is another good example. Just let Kanye and company do their thing, and have Rihanna just sing the chorus.

really not a fan of her music, or her as a person. i think this whole persona she's trying to pull off (i smoke a ton weed\i'm so thug) doesn't suit her at all. she has a nice body though.

Sirs, a rebuttal if I may:

Dat ass.

Rihanna's entire career consists of "trying too hard." If nothing else, she has a great team of producers around her to make her "singing" sound tolerable.

DIAMONDS is pretty bland TBH

Ashanti was never this omnipresent, or successful. Certainly not for as long.

Auto-Tune out of tune?

Yeah, I got nothing.
