[@user-ke5rt3ji8c]

ur mama is strange and misunderstood

[@rihstahlker]

@Raouf Ch um... this means that you didn’t give attention to the lyrics... there’s a story throughout the album that continues wherever the precedent track ended... even Work, Woo, Sex With Me and Pose have a meaning and they are part of the whole story... and also if you gave attention to the production, James Joint starts with the same baseline and keys from Consideration’s outro... Work, Desperado and Woo have the same intro... and seeing you saying all of this just means that you’re just not objective enough to be judging a full body of work!

[@plamenasiniye]

This is truly one of the greatest albums ever by a commercial pop artist. And Kiss It Better must be one of Rihanna's best songs ever. Edit: I guess what I mean by "commercial artist" is that, before ANTI, her career was definitely way more focused on singles, and the focus was way less on her albums. She'd record hit singles that would sell massively on their own but also help sell the albums they were featured on. The albums, however, would often just feel like collections of songs, instead of cohesive bodies of work - a trend that ANTI, her eighth album, put a stop to.
