When Riri released her video for the title track "You Da One", I was disappointed. After such an amazing visual for "We Found Love", I felt like she dropped the ball. So, when I heard she planned on making "Where Have You Been" her next single (one of my favorite songs off Talk That Talk) I gave her the *side eye*, unsure of whether or not she would be able to give me what I need.
Never fear folks, Rihanna has done it again.
The singer if you want to call her all of that/budding actress has released the visual for her next single "Where Have You Been" (produced by Calvin Harris, Dr. Luke, and Cirkut) and I LOVE IT! The David Meyers directed video is a definite hit! In it, Rihanna channels a tribal voodoo priestess in the desert longing for her love... and get this, she's dancing too!
I have had a long standing love/hate relationship with Rihanna, but I must give credit where credit is due. She has worked extremely hard to get where she is now. While her vocal performance will always lack (because let's face it, she's not a singer) she puts a lot of thought into the collective idea behind every song/performance/video she does... the makings of a real entertainer.

ReplyDeleteThis is one of my fav songs on the album
ReplyDeleteshe is awesome!
ReplyDeleteI agree RiRi gave us a lot to be proud of with this visual. It was very rhythmic & it connected well with the song. I enjoyed it a great deal. Though I agree that her vocal performance isn't on status amazing, I do find her to be a very dazzling entertainer with goo gobs of personality that she isn't afraid to let shine. Good Job gal!
