Rihanna - Anti -deluxe- -2016-album- -

– A near-cover of Tame Impala’s six-minute psychedelic odyssey. Rihanna makes it her own by stripping the urgency and adding languid, auto-tuned regret. It’s a bizarre, brave closer for the standard album.

No. It’s indulgent, messy, and at times, frustrating. Rihanna - ANTI -Deluxe- -2016-Album-

– Slow, psychedelic, and explicitly sexual. A cousin to The Weeknd’s Trilogy . She’s in total control, whispering threats and promises. – A near-cover of Tame Impala’s six-minute psychedelic

– A 78-second weed-and-R&B interlude. Dreamy, wasted, and gorgeous. It sets the album’s hazy mood perfectly. A cousin to The Weeknd’s Trilogy

Absolutely. ANTI is the sound of the world’s biggest pop star burning down her own throne and walking away from the flames with a smirk. Rating: ★★★★½ (4.5/5) Best Tracks (Deluxe): “Kiss It Better,” “Needed Me,” “Desperado,” “Sex with Me” Skip if… you need clear hooks or upbeat dance jams. Listen if… you want to hear a legend get gloriously, recklessly weird. “I got to do things my own way, darling.” – And she did.
