When I first heard they were making a part II for Rihanna’s upcoming album (Loud, which is out Nov 16th), I immediately thought it was a terrible, terrible idea. Upon listening to this I’m pretty surprised at how good this is. Obviously this isn’t as good, and certainly won’t have the same impact, as the original, especially as they’ve recycled the same chorus, and parts of the original beat. However this is much more a Rihanna song, with her singing some real heartfelt verses before Eminem closes the track off with a verse that sounds very sombre, but then typically develops onto a much angrier note.
