If Em would have had Skylar on LTWYL intead of Rihanna.

Postby Rafael » Jun 13th, '13, 06:36

Do you think that it would have had the same impact that it did?

Rihanna was already a huge name and Skylar was virtually unknown at the time, so I think the answer is no, but you never know. Skylar was still pretty unkown when I Need a Doctor came out and look at how big of a hit that was.

Even if not I still think it would have been a better song because Skylar sang it a lot better tbh

It would not be as big as it is.

I think it would have sounded way better with Skylar's voice. But it would have had nowhere near the impact the original had.

Not only would it have been better but even if it recieved a quarter of the impact that the original had it would have done miracles for Skylar's career. Add INAD a year later and Coming Home later and I'm pretty sure she would be a big name right now.

Would've had about the same amount of success as Spacebound or some shit.

Skylar is a better singer but Rihanna was perfect for this song. Especially knowing how she got her ass beaten up few months before that.

Obviously not.

Like it or not, Rihanna helped a lot to increase the sales, the song became a big hit. Eminem himself thanked her many times for helping with the sales.

I have to say I'm a bit tired of both now, Rihanna, and Skylar. Too much collaborations already.

Rihanna is bigger. Skylar has more talent I think. But, Rihanna has so much more charisma.
Skylar can write a hook or two and maybe sing them, but that would be enough.
Dina Rae and Liz Rodriguez are better than Skylar, in my opinion.

If we didn't have any collaborations we would have had nothing for 3 years.
