Nerd? You don’t flow like one. Just work on either the quality of the track or the way you pronounce the words. Complete the track. Write some more. So good so far. It sound like a snippet.

Rihanna is only 25 years old!
Billboard Hot 100
She got it! That Magic!
Yes
WOW
YOU KNOW WHATS FUCKED ABOUT THIS,YALL TREAT BEYOUNCE LIKE SHES BIGGER THAN RIHANNA,SHE AINT THIS PAGE
LOL
This is why I like putting up numbers. To dispel the myths from the Facts.
That’s because of human perception. Even though its not the right thing to do, people perceive Beyonce a certain way, she’s the Queen, not sullied by a bunch of controversy or loose booty activities plus she does crazy numbers. Rhianna numbers are off the charts but she’s perceived as that pretty troublesome vixen, maneater and all around bad girl. That girl doesn’t live in the castle she’s the one who the Kings and Princes sneak out of the castle to fuck.
From the outside looking in I feel like your a victim of this as well @JD The other night we had DJ Allah Mathematics from the Wu Tang Clan on our show and he said he felt that you don’t get the credit you deserve at all. He said that there are very few producers who can make #1 hits for any type of rap artist and then go make #1 hits for the Usher’s and Mariah’s of the world. I feel that’s very true and some of the reason why that credit gets taken away is the other headlines that these media outlets have had you in the news for. Ppl began to develop a perception and it fucks up the facts.
Its exactly the Rihanna shit cause Blogs don’t report success, like you won’t see this posted on nobodies blog,but its also the gift that allows us to do so much,so i Love it !!!
Yes indeed!
Could the lack of the proper perception be because of lack of strategic branding to drive public awareness to the right perception? I’ll give you an example. When JD announced the SoSoDef 20th anniversary a lot of people were like the show wouldn’t sell out & like what has SoSoDef done lately for people to care as said by the folds over at the breakfast club. Then I told envy the Friday before the show to play a SoSoDef mix which he did & Charlemagne said after the mix that people(including him) tend to forget how many Hits SoSoDef/JD has. I’ve always said that music is not to be spoken about, it’s to be heard. Let the brand speak for itself. But the people behind these brands need to strategically curate a way to make their brands speak for themselves.
What people don’t understand about me is could give a fuck what people say,I’ve come to the conclusion that when you’ve done shit that nobody else has even come close to, they create this hate to make you seem like something is wrong with you,like you said Rihanna is only 25 she is a thret to every artist
even I almost feel some kinda way seeing @JD and Rihanna name in the same sentence lol…( I mean I like rih rih) Numbers don’t lie…I get it. But even if she passed Mariah in #1s in years to come…she wont have that LEGENDARY Ora Mariah or Whitney has. ijs (shrugs)
Why you say that ?
If she passes Mariah she’ll be bigger than Mariah in terms of status. As we speak today Rihanna just came off a Sold Out Arena/Stadium tour. Mariah’s last tour couldn’t sell out the Fox Theatre in ATL. Strategic marketing & Branding is a BIG deal. Plus you grew up on Mariah so to you she will never be below Rihanna but you have to give respect were respect is due. Ain’t Nobody in the industry above Rihanna. Same level maybe but not above.
You just lost me, above her in terms of what ?
Ugly monkey. You always got some slick shit to say about Beyoncé. You’re probably mad that Beyoncé probably rejected your dated ass production. What was the last hit you produced JD? I’ll wait…Oh ok..lol. And Rihanna’s number 1’s are forgettable. Rihanna must be bigger than Tina Turner then too, huh? Tina only has one #1 song. Stop clit riding and worry about your failed ass label. No one uses So So Deaf anymore. Those days are longggg gone, bum.
In terms of status? Nigga WHAT ? Lol do u know how many albums mariah has sold? And all them number 1s of rihanna include features with the biggest artists in the game. Skyler grey coulda sang that monster hook that just gave rih her 13th number 1 and it woulda still been number one. What song will rihanna have that 20 years later jumps to number one once the season hits. Be for real lol
Just had a debate bout this with someone trying to tell me bey can see mariah. And i said shit bey aint seeing rih in certain categories
But!! Bey jus 4 solo albums in. If we count the DC shit would she be? I dont know their numbers
I love Rihanna music that’s awesome
THE THING BOUT MUSIC IS U ONLY AS GOOD AS YO LAST HIT N WORSE AS YO LAST FLOP THE GAME DONT LOVE NOBODY DAT Y I TREAT IT LIKE A BITCH
@JD In terms of artists in the Music Business. Rihanna consistently putting out Music with a top 10 or #1 single since 2005 & currently sitting @ Number 1 on the Hot 100 charts. Her Business in terms of successful singles/albums & most of all tours. Her last tour did over $140 Million in revenue. That’s what I mean.
@Dmac This does not take anything away from Mariah but like JD said about his public brand perception, he doesn’t care which a lot of legendary artists don’t but if they don’t why should the fans/buying public care either. That’s why I spoke about the importance of strategic marketing & branding.
But Now Lets put things in perspective here. Rihanna has been out since 2005. The Internet iTunes era. She has sold over 180 million singles & over 50 million albums. Mariah has sold over 200 million albums & she has been out since 1990. The era where you basically had no other option but to buy the album. So hypothetically speaking if you translate those single sales to albums for Rihanna in addition to part of her actual album sales then she is right on par with Mariah who had a 15 year head start. By the way. Has Mariah ever sold out a stadium/Arena tour ? The tour right after her ”Emancipation of Mimi” album Didn’t sell out with some dates cancelled due to low ticket sales. Her very last tour was unable to sell out the Fox. The Fox. Let me repeat. The Fox THEATRE that has less than 5000 seating capacity. I don’t know how else to explain Rihanna’s status in the game. Oh by the way. Isn’t she the one that got some type of Legend award at the last AMAs @ 25 Years old.

Sound like you could be a real lyricist. Make your chorus sound more like radio material etc. Not sure if it’s the melody, vocals, or tempo. Either way the song sounds good. Real hip hop. Would like to hear more from you.
