This is her best album after Anti. Prime Rihanna. Get it over with >>> the most underrated Rihanna song. “It’s dark in the day I’ll say, now don’t complain.” Such a deep lyric.

*Phresh Off The Runway* - A star coming off the untouchable space that is “The Runway” to tell you a personal story *Diamonds* - “Diamonds In The Sky” refers to a relationship that looks so great through the telescope lens in which the media and fans see them *Numb* - The truth of the party life and how it leaves you emotionless Pour It Up - glamorised version of the party life through the perspective of media and fans *Loveeeeeee Song* - wanting love but it only comes in the form of s*x bc people see her as an object and not a person, to the point that she starts to think they’re both the same and accepting that role “Boy, I Just Wanna Be In Your Possession” *Jump* - is her fully accepting the thought that love does not exist for her bc she’s famous so she puts on the front of the star “See You Put Up Your Wall” and turns the table but in a game of playing hard to get so this person only wants her “You Don’t Need Another Lover” but it backfires when she takes it too far that he no longer wants her bc she’s hard to get “And You Could’ve Had It All” *Right Now* - the “I’m young, I don’t need a relationship” then make it seem like you’re living your best life to hide the hurt song What Now - existential crisis bc she wonders if she could ever be loved and regrets playing hard to get with someone who wanted her (we start to see that this person is a void filler and not a person she chooses to love) *Stay* - explaining to a guiding voice, whether a friend, family member, guardian Angel or conscience that she knows this person is a crutch, they tell her that real love is not selfish, in the bridge she’s saying you’re broken-hearted but I needed you to help me [prior to the existential state she’s in] (further proving he’s a crutch) “Cause When You Never See The Light, It’s Hard To Know Which One Of Us Is Cavin’” she doesn’t know what true love is and being blinded by that pain she doesn’t know which one of them was in the wrong and should apologise for them to move passed this (meaning she hasn’t learned as she seeing love as a game of win or lose) *Nobody’s Business* - they finally get together but she wants the love to guide her in life (the existential crisis from before was beyond this relationship), it’s a private public affair, Diamonds up close , him repeating her verse shows he’s lost too, two chipped Yellow Diamonds In The Light, mirroring each other’s shine (using Chris is a genius artistic choice in the long run story-wise, whether they were together or not) *Love Without Tragedy* - “I Pray That Love Don’t Strike Twice” is a double entendre showing the hurt of the end and the actual abuse endured during, the refrain of the song “Red Lipstick…” is a double entendre for the glamorous romance in the fast lane and a funeral for a death from a crash *Mother Mary* - coming to terms that the love could not fill the void, but asking GOD to guide her with full faith “I’m Prepared To Die In The Moment” shows the extent she will follow The LORD to but also that’s she willing to kill her old self and beliefs *Get It Over With* - a baptism, overcoming every fear to become stronger, overcoming every feeling of frustration to feel peace versus stress alleviation through self-medication, her conscience is saying deal with it head on while she wants run from her problems through substances like she used to (in the beginning of the album) *No Love Allowed* - referring to the relationship as a hit and run (referring back to Love Without Tragedy) shows how she feels used, but it’s also about how he abused her then left her hanging high and dry with unprocessed feelings, in the pre-chorus “Hand In The Air As He Waved Me Goodbye” means the the old her who believed love was the answer died the moment he hit her, so she’s setting a boundary, something she thought would save her from her problems ended up adding to them. *Lost In Paradise* - “What Am I Supposed To Do With This Heart? How Do I Take It Off If I Love It On, It’s Like A Work Of Art”, a processed person with unprocessed feelings, loving the scars bc they made her the person she is but hating the pain they give her, she’s now either fully suicidal or disassociating as paradise can be seen as a dreamlike state of mind or Heaven itself. “If I Open Up My Eyes…” then means if I re-enter my body or if I live another day I have to face my reality which is not as glamorous as you think it is. While not knowing what to do with her heart (love) she knows she wants guidance to fix her life “Somebody Tell Me How To Mend A Broken-hearted Soul” referring to the soul being the one to get fixed and not the heart shows she now knows the void is bigger than love but this could also be her telling the public that their breakup was for reasons beyond the actual relationship. The song is also a callback to Get It Over With, with her telling her conscience bc of reasons in No Love Allowed being Numb or “To Die In In The Moment” is better than dealing with her problems face on *Half of Me* - is her now directly talking to the public “Saw Me On The Television Hanging Out My Dirty Linen, You’re Entitled To Your Own Opinion, Sit And Shake Your Head At My Decisions” this is talking in general but more specifically about the relationship whether she stayed with him, broke up with him, got back together with him, the public would not be satisfied bc they constantly wanted to have something to say. “Oh You Know Me, I’m The Life Of The Party, Beautiful People Surround Me” call back to Pour It Up, “Everybody Falling In Love” a sarcastically ironic call back to the times she showed how hard it is to love or feel loved throughout the album. Ending with “You Saw Me On The Television” not only to say that the public doesn’t personally know her but also she resets everything as if she never told you the behind the scenes story and we all go back to what would be considered “normal”
I was a Rihanna fan before Unapologetic dropped but after this dropped I really became a Rihanna navy.. This was my freshman year of high school and this whole era was just so special to me
I was a fan of her since sos came out she was my childhood most of my second half of my childhood is Rihanna and I listened to all of her albums and fell asleep to her songs
Unapologetic is the album that both solidifies Rihanna's place and proves that she is a jack of all trades. Pop,ballad,club,edm etc. you have whatever you want in a word it's a perfect album. My favourite songs of the album are Diamonds,Right Now and What Now.
Love this album so much. Rihanna put an album every year from 2008-2012 toured every year still managed to create number one songs on each album, timeless music. There will never be another her 💕
Y'all blew my mind with this theory, because I never saw or understood the album this way and I've been a Navy for 15 year lol. Also two of my top 5 Rih songs are on this album: What Now & Love Without a Tragedy/Mother Mary.
AS A RIHANNA NAVY FOR 13 YEARS… I AM IN LOVE THAT YOU GUYS HAVE YOU BEEN BACK WITH THE TWO QUEENS. JORDAN…. I DIDNT’T KNOW!I have been since I was ten, I’m 23 now. Yessssss Omg, pls tell me you have experienced…. HER LIVE. IT’S A LOVE YOU HAVE TO FEEL AT LEAST ONE IN YOUR LIFE.
I always said for this album to come before anti was very telling. Even talk that talk had a few hints of that vulnerable and honest side of her. Well technically all of her stuff does. Pitchfork ....you know what you did 😒 Sidenote: ANTI is the woman. Unapologetic is her trying to find the woman within and being at peace with herself.
Just so you know guys diamonds is not a love song it's one of Rihanna's fav songs because she thinks of her grandma which passed away from cancer that time.
I mean she said it was one of the meanings but not the only one. Back then she posted a picture of her and Chris on instagram with the caption : "Like diamonds in the sky"
You guys should do a Chris Brown's album reaction since you love his voice as well ? And you would get this other side/perspective of the relationship.... (like "mirage" is his answer to "man down" and so much more...)
I love the revisit rollout Please react to Janet Jackson’s The Velvet Rope🙏🏾❤️ (the original version) it looks long but the interludes are under a minute and are there to set up the next song🫧
as a navy i think this is her best album, yes she has so many hits and pop style songs in her other albums but musically and experimentally this is it.
Mother Mary is a contrast to Right Now In “Right Now”, Rihanna is living for now to ignore the big lump in her throat (What Now) Mother Mary is her revealing her true feelings and no longer fighting the lump but not embracing it either, it actually ends up swallowing her In terms of context of the double sided song, Mother Mary is Rihanna in her mind as the tragedy (crash) of Love Without Tragedy happens, mentally preparing to die in that moment But if the tragedy was the incident from the late 2000s, then that’s her telling us what she was thinking while it was happening which is really devastating to imagine let alone go through
Idk what your on about maybe in the us it was underrated but jump was literally number 1 on the charts here in Australia most of her releases/singles was number 1 or number two or even number three she was topping the charts here in Australia
With Nobody’s Business she was Unapologetic about the possibility of getting back together, which they did but it was more to fix him than to love him so when you go backwards to Stay that bridge hits way more different “Funny You’re The ‘Broken One’, But I’m The Only One Who Needed Saving” Needed Me (this one is a reach but makes sense): Tryna Fix Your Inner Issues With A Bad B*tch
As a woman born in an ex communist country Romania yes yes diamonds is her biggest song! I myself was 15 when it dropped and I did cut my hair like her and it was the best thing I ever did😂❤️
Get it over with, NO LOVE ALLOWED, Diamonds & Love without tragedy. As melhores, top 10 de melhores da carreira ❤ Esse album é o melhor da Rainha pra mim. Todos são especiais e maravilhosos, mas esse tem meu ❤ em 1.
DON’T SLIP DON’T SLIP CUZ A NIGGA MIGHT PUSH UP ON IT … DON’T REALLY WANNA LOOSE THIS MOMENT , WHY WINDOW SHOP WHEN YOU OWN THIS?!?? (yall should revisit anti if you haven’t already! if you have already my apologies) 😭😭
This is her best album after Anti. Prime Rihanna. Get it over with >>> the most underrated Rihanna song. “It’s dark in the day I’ll say, now don’t complain.” Such a deep lyric.
Get it over with🤌🏼🥹

Wow this was a whole new perspective of unapologetic. Love the dissection and really highlights how masterful this album was
*Phresh Off The Runway* - A star coming off the untouchable space that is “The Runway” to tell you a personal story
*Diamonds* - “Diamonds In The Sky” refers to a relationship that looks so great through the telescope lens in which the media and fans see them
*Numb* - The truth of the party life and how it leaves you emotionless
Pour It Up - glamorised version of the party life through the perspective of media and fans
*Loveeeeeee Song* - wanting love but it only comes in the form of s*x bc people see her as an object and not a person, to the point that she starts to think they’re both the same and accepting that role “Boy, I Just Wanna Be In Your Possession”
*Jump* - is her fully accepting the thought that love does not exist for her bc she’s famous so she puts on the front of the star “See You Put Up Your Wall” and turns the table but in a game of playing hard to get so this person only wants her “You Don’t Need Another Lover” but it backfires when she takes it too far that he no longer wants her bc she’s hard to get “And You Could’ve Had It All”
*Right Now* - the “I’m young, I don’t need a relationship” then make it seem like you’re living your best life to hide the hurt song
What Now - existential crisis bc she wonders if she could ever be loved and regrets playing hard to get with someone who wanted her (we start to see that this person is a void filler and not a person she chooses to love)
*Stay* - explaining to a guiding voice, whether a friend, family member, guardian Angel or conscience that she knows this person is a crutch, they tell her that real love is not selfish, in the bridge she’s saying you’re broken-hearted but I needed you to help me [prior to the existential state she’s in] (further proving he’s a crutch) “Cause When You Never See The Light, It’s Hard To Know Which One Of Us Is Cavin’” she doesn’t know what true love is and being blinded by that pain she doesn’t know which one of them was in the wrong and should apologise for them to move passed this (meaning she hasn’t learned as she seeing love as a game of win or lose)
*Nobody’s Business* - they finally get together but she wants the love to guide her in life (the existential crisis from before was beyond this relationship), it’s a private public affair, Diamonds up close , him repeating her verse shows he’s lost too, two chipped Yellow Diamonds In The Light, mirroring each other’s shine (using Chris is a genius artistic choice in the long run story-wise, whether they were together or not)

I was a fan of her since sos came out she was my childhood most of my second half of my childhood is Rihanna and I listened to all of her albums and fell asleep to her songs
Unapologetic is the definition of a perfect album
YES FINALLY!! More Rihanna album please!
your interpretation of the album is magnificent, let me go listen to this album again with a new set of ears.💙
rihanna never fails when it comes to an organic HIT. today’s artists need to take notes - from a long time member of the RIHNAVY 🤞🏿🖤
This album is impeccable, futureproof, just everything
Unapologetic is the album that both solidifies Rihanna's place and proves that she is a jack of all trades. Pop,ballad,club,edm etc. you have whatever you want in a word it's a perfect album. My favourite songs of the album are Diamonds,Right Now and What Now.
I absolutely love the way y’all broke this album down! Shout out to my RIHNAVY!🥹💕
Y'all should do Good girl gone bad. It's celebrated it's 15 years
Wooow! What a reading for this album so deep and so interesting to the point that I hope Rihanna can see this.
Rihanna is a queen pure Queen agree and agree all of her albums have a lot of amazing catchy masterpieces
i love when y'all react to an album i think i already know so well and still show me all kinds of insight that i'd never even considered!!!!
Love this album so much. Rihanna put an album every year from 2008-2012 toured every year still managed to create number one songs on each album, timeless music. There will never be another her 💕
My personal FAVORITE album from her
my favorite album from her! so many memories!
Y'all blew my mind with this theory, because I never saw or understood the album this way and I've been a Navy for 15 year lol. Also two of my top 5 Rih songs are on this album: What Now & Love Without a Tragedy/Mother Mary.
My Top 5
1. Pour It Up 🍾👠

This was my favorite album by her for a good minute
this is definitely my favorite rihanna album AS A WHOLE. 🤍
literally one of my favorite rihanna albums of all time.
I happened to find you guys randemly on Renaissance review & i freakinnnnn luvvvuuuuu Guys...... Praise Up!!!!! 🤙💚🥰
For me it's def her best album followed by GGGB and ANTI.
Binge watching right now before you guys can drop the Midnights reaction! Can't wait ugh 💘😵
I always said for this album to come before anti was very telling. Even talk that talk had a few hints of that vulnerable and honest side of her. Well technically all of her stuff does. Pitchfork ....you know what you did 😒
Sidenote: ANTI is the woman. Unapologetic is her trying to find the woman within and being at peace with herself.
Abso-fckin-lutely !
Anti is her best then this one. This album you can tell she truly found her sound. Anti is when she was mastered her craft.
What a masterpiece, this album will always be my favorite.
Unapologetic supremacy forever 🤍🤎🤍🤎🤍
Just so you know guys diamonds is not a love song it's one of Rihanna's fav songs because she thinks of her grandma which passed away from cancer that time.
I mean she said it was one of the meanings but not the only one. Back then she posted a picture of her and Chris on instagram with the caption : "Like diamonds in the sky"
unapologetic is definitely Pop Perfection
Rihanna has the best discography. Unapologetic is a masterpiece.
Love watching y’all’s rih reactions because people like to act like her albums don’t have depth to them
Rihanna’s biggest songs are Umbrella and Diamonds
We Found Love is after
1. Umbrella
2. Diamonds
3. We found love
4. Stay
5. What’s my name
Rihanna is a LEGEND ❤
I love Rihanna music 💖 and music is not the same anymore how it used to be
One of the best Album who ever create for me
This is one of the best reactions I’ve EVER seen
I love gorgeous Unapologetic ❤
Yes please do Good girl gone bad next!
need your reaction to midnights!!
You guys should do a Chris Brown's album reaction since you love his voice as well ? And you would get this other side/perspective of the relationship.... (like "mirage" is his answer to "man down" and so much more...)
Nah they shouldn’t promote that abuser
@@zacmirza6498 Why not ? They already promoted an abuser which is Rihanna... 😬😅
i love you guys so much i really wanted you to do a reaction to megan new album she is very talented and the album is amazing ♥️
Her recent album is really good, I loved it.
Please do Christina Aguilera's Stripped next! It turns 20 soon btw and it's just such a beautiful body of work.
even rihanna tell the navy that unapologetic is a story in her life
I love the revisit rollout
Please react to Janet Jackson’s The Velvet Rope🙏🏾❤️ (the original version) it looks long but the interludes are under a minute and are there to set up the next song🫧
Do Good Girl Gone Bad!!! Also great video!
Y’all are genius guys !
Dudes, bros, listeeennnnnn, young forever, nessa Barrett, you won’t regret it fr
My fav album from her 💙
Finally y'all did it❤❤i was waiting for this reaction for so long. Love you guys...u guys are genius..🔥
Dying for your guys’ midnights reactions!
Love you guys break down of it all.
as a navy i think this is her best album, yes she has so many hits and pop style songs in her other albums but musically and experimentally this is it.
rihannanavyyyyy 🎰
I love how the dude with the cap explained how stay is a love song 😂. Funny
Thank You for this
imagine she starts her superbowl show with _phresh off the runway_ and just comes in catwalking the house down. the kids will gag.
Queen Rihanna ❤
This is my favorite album from her
Chris brown actually performed the background vocals for Get It Over With l track
TAKE ME HOME BY 1D!!! it has all the hits
Mother Mary is a contrast to Right Now
In “Right Now”, Rihanna is living for now to ignore the big lump in her throat (What Now)
Mother Mary is her revealing her true feelings and no longer fighting the lump but not embracing it either, it actually ends up swallowing her
In terms of context of the double sided song, Mother Mary is Rihanna in her mind as the tragedy (crash) of Love Without Tragedy happens, mentally preparing to die in that moment
But if the tragedy was the incident from the late 2000s, then that’s her telling us what she was thinking while it was happening which is really devastating to imagine let alone go through
Idk what your on about maybe in the us it was underrated but jump was literally number 1 on the charts here in Australia most of her releases/singles was number 1 or number two or even number three she was topping the charts here in Australia
PLEASE DO BORN THIS WAY IM WAITING SO LONG
hi i would love it if u guys reacted to ness barretts new debut album young forever !
With Nobody’s Business she was Unapologetic about the possibility of getting back together, which they did but it was more to fix him than to love him so when you go backwards to Stay that bridge hits way more different “Funny You’re The ‘Broken One’, But I’m The Only One Who Needed Saving”
Needed Me (this one is a reach but makes sense): Tryna Fix Your Inner Issues With A Bad B*tch
As a woman born in an ex communist country Romania yes yes diamonds is her biggest song! I myself was 15 when it dropped and I did cut my hair like her and it was the best thing I ever did😂❤️
nobody’s business will always be my favorite in this album
Defined my college years
Finally unapologetic!
Diamonds is more popular than we found love
Get it over with, NO LOVE ALLOWED, Diamonds & Love without tragedy. As melhores, top 10 de melhores da carreira ❤ Esse album é o melhor da Rainha pra mim. Todos são especiais e maravilhosos, mas esse tem meu ❤ em 1.
