Just another day at the office. |
It is very good because, objectively, it is VERY GOOD. It has a great catchy hook and a punchy beat and bassline that just begs to be shoulder-dipped to.
It is disappointing because, listened to in context, it is a song we have heard many times before, from an artist who has made a career of being different and somewhat special.
Of course it will be #1 for two months and, at the very least, make everyone stop talking about Lady Gaga for a precious few moments, but to be honest, Rihanna, WE EXPECTED A BIT MORE FROM YOU.
You can listen to the premiere HERE thanks to some French piracy.
