Nicki Minaj – Fly ft. Rihanna

A true collaboration of today’s Black singer queens, Nicki Minaj and Rihanna.

It’s a song that celebrates hard workers who strive to move forward, even though the path is surely not an easy one.

It’s also a perfect track for freshmen about to embark on a new chapter.

PARTYNEXTDOOR & Rihanna – BELIEVE IT (Official Audio)

PartyNextDoor, a multi-talented singer-songwriter and producer from Ontario, Canada, is also known as the first artist signed to OVO SOUND, the label founded around Drake.

Released in March 2020, this track has been generating huge buzz for featuring Rihanna, who had been away from the music scene for a while.

Over a subdued track, the song explores trust between a man and a woman.

The hook where Rihanna sings “make me believe” is especially striking—many men might find it all too relatable.

Rihanna – Birthday Cake (Audio)

Rihanna, an artist from Barbados, is internationally renowned and hugely popular in Japan as well.

She originally debuted as a reggae artist, but later shifted her style several times, from R&B to dance music.

Her track “Birthday Cake” fully embraces a dance music style, gaining popularity with its intense sound—far removed from the catchy melodies typical of standard birthday songs.

Bitch Better Have My MoneyRihanna32rank/position

Rihanna – Bitch Better Have My Money (Explicit)

“Pay me back, or else…” This track hits like a line straight out of a movie, seething with menace.

The singer is Rihanna, the global superstar from Barbados.

Released in March 2015, it features a trap-style sound with booming low end, setting it apart from her previous pop image.

Knowing it was inspired by her real-life lawsuit against her accountant makes its intensity all the more convincing.

It portrays unflinching anger at betrayal and a near-obsessive will to reclaim what’s rightfully hers, even by force.

When you’re fuming after something unfair happens, listening to it might just be the catharsis you need.

Born AgainRihanna33rank/position

Rihanna – Born Again

Rihanna, a singer known for R&B-leaning tracks like “Umbrella” and “Don’t Stop the Music,” also has a lot of great ballads.

Among them, “Born Again” has an interesting progression and would be a really cool song to sing at karaoke.

It starts with a quiet piano, then the mood shifts a bit in the middle, and a low-pitched melody appears repeatedly.

If you’re a woman with a naturally low voice, it’s definitely worth a try!

DisturbiaRihanna34rank/position

Rihanna – Disturbia

If you’re looking for a dance song perfect for Halloween, I recommend “Disturbia.” It’s a track themed around fear and anxiety.

Beyond the lyrics, the screams woven into the song will definitely amp up the Halloween vibe.

The song is by the global superstar Rihanna.

In the music video, she appears in eerie costumes, so be sure to check that out too.

She is famous as a singer-songwriter and also as a model.

Her debut album, released in 2005, received high acclaim.
