Rihanna should have not song the hook for ltwyl

Postby xnoxiousx » Feb 2nd, '11, 04:37

Skylar Grey should have done it.

Only reason Rihanna got it was for sales eminem would have not sold nearly as much copies from all people who bought it just for rihanna.

Here is orginal song its much better.

The point of putting Rihanna on the song was NOT to sell more copies. In Em's mind, he figured she would be perfect for the concept of the song. Considering she's a victim of domestic violence, it's the perfect artistic paradox, a clash of two different worlds sending a single message. THAT'S why Rihanna's on the hook. You'll appreciate the song a lot better after you realize this

Word on Satan, as I drop, fall to my knees before this Quija board and I pray
Now I lay me down to sleep
I do this shit in my sleep, I’m sleepin' now, imagine if I awake

No...it was absolutely for sales. Em had no say on Rihanna being on the hook. He probably got it with Skylar Grey on the hook and the Record Label put Rihanna on it.

It was for sales you just want to think that.

All they did was pay for her song and then not let her sing the part and rihanna did it.

You have to admit based of the orginal she was better choice.

Lol, you don't know that, ask him. I'm fairly sure Em WANTED her on the song

Im not even talking about what he wanted. Im taking about who actually song it better.

Based of link i gave she was clearly better.

Haha, okay, here comes multiple people quoting me now. Look, fellas, I don't like the song all that much either. I hardly listen to it, but I think it's a good song. I don't let Rihanna ruin it for me like a lot of people do. Yeah, sales were probably also in mind somewhere in there, but for the most part I believe Em genuinely wanted her on the song and that the label didn't choose it for him

Did you even listen to what I posted and what he said? Yeah, that may have had something to do with it, but I really don't think thats the only reason.

What do you expect Eminem to say?

"Yeah, I received the beat with the chick no one knows on it but Interscope wanted it to sell more so they through Rihanna on there."

Of course he's not goona say that

very good :y:

also, he did say he felt she was the only one who could pull it off, and she did. it was a great hook, and the concept and both of their backgrounds makes this even better.

think of it like this, when em had elton do the hook at the grammys, was it better? obviously not, but it was done to make the song better in terms of the circumstances, elton made it a statement because of the gay communities backlash. rihanna made this song better due to the circumstances regarding content because she was a victim of domestic violence...tho im not sure if its considered domestic violence if you're not married or it applies to relationships in general :unsure:

Yup, thats exactly what I would have wanted him to say -__-

Like I said, sales might have had a part in it...but I think he genuinely wanted her on the song. Sooo, thats what I think and I posted a video of him explaining why he wanted her on the song. This is just my opinion. You have yours. I'm not going to keep going back and fourth, because I'm just going to be repeating myself. :wave:
