10 MOST UNDERRATED RIHANNA SONGS

               

Not every records ends up being a hit. In fact if you think about it, only a few songs end up with the distinction of hit status. These Rihanna's song featured on this list are bad ass record, but none of them have been profound in the commercial department and have been snnobed by the radio. Arguably, the best way to describe these songs are "Underrated" but they can always bask in their critical acclaim. These are the top ten most awesome Rihanna's songs we've missed because they didn't get the audience they deserved.
You can also share yours in the comment section below and follow this blog for more top ten.


1. Man Down (2011)

It served as the fifth single from Rihanna's blockbuster album Loud. Man Down was released on May 3 2011. The song was heavily inspired by Bob Marley's song "I shot the sheriff." The song is probably best remembered for its accompanying music video, which features a theme of vigilante crime.  Though the song was well received by critics, many of whom praised the song's reggae influence, it did not match the commercial success that it needed.




2. Raining Men ft (Nicki Minaj) (2011)


"Raining Men" is also a track from Rihanna's fifth studio album LOUD.  It's a hip hop song which features rap vocals by Nicki Minaj. The song's lyrics centers around how there is an endless supply of men available in the world. Although the song garnered a mixed response from music critics, some praised the chemistry between Rihanna and Minaj, The song didn't perform well on charts and heavily didn't match the radio airplay as compared to her previous hits.





3. American Oxygen (2015)

American Oxygenby Rihanna is one of the biggest flops by a contemporary pop singer in recent memory. The much-hyped single “American Oxygen” was at No. 91 last week on Billboard‘s Hot 100 and is fell off the chart the following week. To add to the insult, Rihanna’s previous single, “B***h Better Have My Money,” also failed to make an impact.





4.  There's a Thug in my life (2005)

Oddly catchy, especially in the chorus. I like the cute little melody and you can definitely think of it as like a pre-cursor to Britney’s “Criminal.” It’s Rihanna’s bad-girl anthem that, looking forward at her own very real thug problems, feels a little cringe-worthy now. But I like that it feels pop-y, maybe a little too Beyonce for its own good. I like the inclusion of the rapper, which rounds out the song.





5. Music Of The Sun (2005)



A nice care-free mid tempo in the vein of Here I Go Again. It has a beautiful Latin guitar melody. It’s breezy and just makes you happy. Unfortunately, it just sort of fades into the darkness at the end.






6.We All Want Love (2011)


 "We all wanna be somebody's one and only." It's a sentiment Rihanna expresses with aching seriousness over a grounded guitar riff on this affecting ballad.



7. Cold Case Love (2009)


"Your love was breaking the law/But I needed a witness/So pick me up when it’s over/It don’t make any difference/Will it ever be solved/Or am I taking the fall/Truth was there all along/Tell me how did we miss it? ," Rihanna sings on the second verse of "Cold Case Love." The song, which was co-written by Justin Timberlake, is taken from Rihanna's fourth studio album, Rated R.





8. Good Girl Gone Bad (2007)

"Good Girl Gone Bad" is title song from Rihanna's 2007 multi-Platinum album. The song is the twelfth and final track on the album. The singer spoke about the song in an interview with Men's Magazine, explains that the song is a representation of her change in image around the time that the album was released.





9.  Nobody's Business (ft Chris Brown) 2012

 If "Nobody's Business" featured anyone but Chris Brown, it would still be celebrated as a wonderfully catchy throwback to early-90s club music. But because it's a duet in which the tumultuous lovers proclaim "you'll always be the one I want to come home to" and "you'll always be my baby" for the world to hear, it makes the beyond-complicated circumstances of their history impossible to ignore. Judge for yourself -- just try to resist the song's many Michael Jackson-worthy charms. The song was one of Rihanna's Unapologetic most underrated song ever.






10. No Love Allowed (2012)

Much in the same way that 2010's "Man Down" saw Rihanna paying tribute to her Barbados heritage with a reggae torch song, "No Love Allowed" takes a similar approach over a bubbly, dubbed-out groove from producer No I.D. "Broken heart was the case / go'on and put him away / He's the only one one one / I let get the best of me," she cries to the love police. The track Didn't receive the audience attention and was being snobed by the public.
