Sorry to say, but Rhianna was beaten into the spotlight. To me, Rhianna can't sing. She's another pretty face. I'm not taking anything away from her accomplishments, but ...

Rihanna can't sing, I know that. What does that matter these days? Britney can't sing either but that didn't stop her at all.

Not if you count the songs that she did solo. Her most successful songs (Umbrella, Live Your Life & Love The Way You Lie) are all attached to big name rappers and none of her songs stay #1 for more than 3 weeks vs Beyonce whose songs stay #1 forever.

Has Nikki's album even dropped yet? I've gotten so used to hearing her and seeing her everywhere that I hadn't realized this was her first album. I watched the BET special about female rappers and one of them said she was exciting now but she wasn't adding anything to the game, like she wasn't memorable. I kinda agree...even right now I can remember lyrics from various songs by Missy, Queen Latifah, Eve, MC Lyte, YoYo but for the life of me I can't remember any of hers...I just think of pink hair and yelling.

It's only going to get worse when Wayne gets out

Don't forget about Ke$ha. She is horrible. Music now is just bad. I have heard music from before I was born and I thought it was much better than the music we have now.

Rihanna can't compare. Rihanna may make hits but she lacks the longevity and the talent many other artist like Lady Gaga and Beyonce have. When Rihanna isn't make songs or releasing an album; no one cares about her. She knows damn well she sucks and that's why she releasing albums yearly. Her performances suck, her personality is boring, her stylist needs to retire, and she can't sing.

She's a very attractive girl though; maybe she should do modeling. Her and Ciara.

You think Lady Gaga has longevity? She kinda reminds of Nicki Minaj...taking what everybody else has done, adding some seasoning to it and calling it new. To me she's like the Madonna of this generation...we'll see if she has the impact that Madonna had though.

Yeah. At this time in the music industry; I don't think no one can really make an impact. However, Lady Gaga is far and bove Rihanna. She can sing and her performances are good.

Well yeah just about everybody is far and above Rihanna but you think Lady Gaga's music (not her bizarre costume choices) have longevity? To me longevity is a song that can still be played 10, 15, 20 years later...I just don't see that for Lady Gaga.

Because she's hot.
You guys can sit there and disagree with me, but if she was really ugly, no one would look her way. Why? Because her music is GARBAGE.
