46. Rihanna featuring Calvin Harris, “We Found Love” (2011)
Announcing itself with a set of syncopated synth intervals that sound as much like a fire alarm as they do a call to the dance floor, “We Found Love”—more than any other song in Rihanna’s fun-demanding catalogue—makes the urge to get turnt up feel like an almost religious impulse. (Hell, even the most devout parishioners throw their hands up for this secular party hymn.) For understandable reasons, the title cuts off right before the qualifier “in a hopeless place.” But it’s the juxtaposition of the two (emphasized in the VMA-winning music video) that makes Rihanna’s best-selling single ever a fully shaded descendent of “The Pleasure Principle.” :barbie:

Horrible better review than Chromatica.

 

But damn they accuse of a lot of thing's gentrifying black music, cultural appropriation.  

 

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.slantmagazine.com/music/britney-spears-blackout/amp/

 

Blackout says her work ethics that hid her limited talents was replaced by *****, Lack of interest,  etc

They mostly focus on her life and less about the album.

But they still call her a product of her producer and elements 

 

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.slantmagazine.com/music/britney-spears-in-the-zone/amp/

 

They call in the zone. Commercialism treadmill. 

 

It's her worst reviewed album to date with 3 stars. But they are pretty mean.
