Rihanna: Will Wild Thoughts, Loyalty, become the new queen of featuring?
While the title “Wild Thoughts” by DJ Khaled has just been unveiled and “Loyalty” continues to hang, a question: Is Rihanna the new queen of featurings?
En route for a new issue! That’s what we all thought when DJ Khaled unveiled “Wild Thoughts”, his featuring with Rihanna and Bryson Tiller which is part of our selection of the best releases of the week . Containing a sample of “Maria Maria” , the huge Santana band, “Wild Thoughts” is destined to be a hit . If you have not seen it yet, we have given you the clip below. But in addition to being the next cardboard of DJ Khaled on Twitter , the title is especially the new single of Rihanna. While it was thought that it would take advantage of the time span between ANTI and R9 to rest, The Barbadian is currently multiplying the featurings. So, last summer, we were able to surround ourselves with Calvin Harris’ “This Is What You Came For” . Written by Taylor Swift, the title has been almost instantly successful and the clip now totals more than 1.6 billion views on YouTube.
Subsequently , Rihanna offered Drake a new hit with the song “Too Good” . Quasi direct response to their duo “Work” , the song has not failed to please the fans of this iconic couple. Well, the two artists are no longer together, we hope that they will make music again in pairs. Meanwhile, “Too Good” has reached the 14th place on the Billboard Hot, a feat for a title that has not been nominated as a classic single or as a promotional piece . And while we were told that the album Witness by Katy Perry is number one in the United States , Rihanna took the opportunity to give their letters of nobility to two other artists too underestimated: Future and Kendrick Lamar. The first one could count on the Barbadian for the title “Selfish”, a veritable nugget that listens loop since its release on February 28.
Meanwhile , Kendrick Lamar managed to get the “Needed Me” interpreter on “Loyalty” , from his album DAMN . Applauded by critics and the public, the record is a jewel that all hip-hop and trap lovers should have in their playlist. If “Selfish” arrived at the 37th place of the Billboard Hot, “Loyalty” ranked in 14th . And it should continue to climb since Kendrick Lamar chose it as third single and will be sent to the urban radios from June 20. From there to hoping for a clip, there is only one step. And while The Weeknd is on the cover of Forbes magazine , We can not wait to see what a surprising duo (and tube) Rihanna will offer! And you, what do you think of Rihanna?
