"These notes are so flat."

@murmns replied:

"I love Riri but no one should tell me she’s better than Beyoncé again."

"I love Rihanna like the next, but she can’t sing. This song should’ve been sung by Tems the writer. Sorry."

@BeSpecialAlways added:

"Rihanna sounded horrible. The band sounded good, and she doesn't have the musical chops to keep up."
