I rock with Rihanna, she’s different from all the “Go for Beyonce’s title artist”. She’s unique and she’s sounding better than ever! On top of that she’s hurting mothaf#ckers with her style and haircuts! “Rockin this club, got my middle finger up, I don’t really give a f#ck!” Rock on Rhianna.

Love to Haiti!!

I totally agree with you. Alot of these artist try sounding like Beyonce and they won’t make it. We need something diffrent like Rihanna she does have a unique voice , she is sounding better and better each year, you see her growth her vocals can only get better from here onwards. Her album Rated R is very good as well, I love it.
Lots of love to Haiti.

Yeah I was very shocked to learn that he’s Haitian as well. Wasn’t impressed with Rih’s vocals overall but she sounded decent. She came off very genuine and concerned and looked gorgeous as usual so it’s all good.

I’m the first to put her in the pop category. I don’t hate her I just don’t think she can do certain things singing wise. That said even I have to admit she did a great job. I’ve grown up hearing this song forever and not once did I cringe or roll my eyes at her rendition. That is an accomplishment.

I guess I was wrong homegirl is gonna be around for a while. This is what makes you an artist and not just a popstar. Maxwell, (I’m positive I read it in an interview) I thought his people were from Dominican Republic and Grenada for some reason. But hey DR w/ Haiti next door maybe the fam (grandparents) was originally from Haiti migrated to DR (a parent born there) then moved to the US (then making Maxwell)? It’s possible.

She sounded better than I thought she would. She sucked in the beginning though. It was an okay rendition. But it served its purpose for the cause. So congrats. and Maxwell you already know killed it.
