"You can see it through my chest / that I'm terrified, but I'm not leaving / I know I must pass this test." Then, a gunshot is heard on the track.Īfter that gunshot, the very next day, Brown introduced a love ballad called "Crawl." "You can see my heart beating," Rihanna sings. It's about surviving an impossible situation. Rihanna's next single was "Russian Roulette." It is not a love song. It made me think, "I guess he's forcing himself to move on." But Rihanna doesn't sound done. He doesn't smile once as he hammers out the track. In the "I Can Transform Ya" video, Brown is dancing, surrounded by his trademark Lamborghinis. In late September, he released the tight, unapologetic pop song "I Can Transform Ya." Rihanna's back, and she's badder than ever.īut Chris Brown is back, too. In the video, she looks hard, and you can't mess with her. She headlines Jay Z's single "Run This Town," and she owns the track. Rihanna came back to the charts late this summer. Listening for a hidden message in every word. I'm scrutinizing every song and video like a mixtape my crush gave me in tenth grade. For months, neither one released any new music.

And the idea that sweet-faced Chris Brown could have done that to her? In the stunned silence that followed, we waited for them to explain themselves. The picture that circulated on the internet of Rihanna's face all busted up was almost irreconcilable with her perfect popstar image. So last winter's ugly violence was unbelievable. They had been like the prince and princess of pop R&B.

CHRIS BROWN I WANT IT ALL BACK LIVE TV
Rihanna will finally talk on TV during Good Morning America Thursday, but it might be possible to pick up on how Brown and Rihanna are doing via their music. In late August, he was sentenced to five years' probation for felony assault. Back in February, Rihanna's boyfriend, Chris Brown, beat her up as they were heading to perform at the Grammy Awards. Over the past several months, TV shows have been clamoring to interview the pop singer Rihanna, but to no avail. Are Rihanna and Chris Brown sending each other notes over the airwaves?
