Premiere: Rihanna – Russian Roulette
I’m sure the link won’t stay up so watch it quick.
Edited: OK, I get it. The Chris Brown lookalike commits suicide in the end. It’s like she’s saying “Chris Brown, Kill yoself!”

I can’t even continue to watch. It’s too dark for me. I am not feeling her knew image. Can she go back to PON DE REPLAY PLEASE. NOT FEELING THE CLAW MARKS ON THE WALL AND ETC. HER BODY HAS BEEN OFFICIALLY TAKEN OVER.
CREEPY
K I WATCHED IT IN IT’S ENTIRETY. AGAIN, I LOVED “GOOD GIRL GONE BAD” BUT WON’T PURCHASE THIS ALBUM. WHY DO URBAN ARTIST ALWAYS HAVE TO CROSS OVER & FORGET THERE INITIAL FAN BASE

THERE U GO SANDRA
HE LOOKS NOTHING LIKE CB
Nah, Daisy, it’s still showing.
The content of this song and video are too subliminally persuasivce (IMO) for the young and impressionable. We don’t need for russian roulette to become the craze again (it once was when I was in middle school). Stupid.
There are way more controversial things to sing about that aren’t deadly. But….I think her voice and tone are great.
that boy dont look nothing like chris brown
actually robyn wasnt never marketed as an urban artist they brought her out pop from the get go. i like the visuals in the video
I’m sorry but that was the stupidest video ever, another hyped up failed attempt.

Maybe I need to watch it again. Isn’t Justin Timberlake white?
i like how this song sounds the singing and the music, but the lyrics are pretty scary to think about.
Either way she seems to be leaving POP and heading over to Rock/Heavy Metal or some crap. Whatever it is I don’t like it so I will save my $$$$$$$ not that she cares anyway. But it’s still my choice
It is a really dark video…her other one is too The Wait is Ova. Dang…she is in a whole diffrent place right now. I don’t care much for it but oh well let her do her…
He don’t look like no stinkin chris brown! And yeah.. very dark video. She’s too pretty to be that dark.
IMO she needed to wait this period of her life out and not get inot the studio so qquickly cuz this is the end result – What happened to a good old Tina turner song – something where she raised herself out of the situation – way too dark and to impresionable – thumbs down.
So Beans stoopid ass let 50 use him for more promotion and has put out a diss song with him on Jay? Is he on drugs? I thought he’d have more sense than to let someone like the media whore 50 use him. How great for this to come out right with 50s CD.
EPIC FAIL on both of those losers.
I cant wait to see crawl video with CB Im sure it will be lovely and NOT dark like debil
It is a dark video. BUT…it’s good to see an artist grow, whether you agree with the direction or not. She’s been through a lot, so I didn’t expect her to come out dancing again right away. Mary J. Blige did the same thing – you could always tell when she was dealing with something based on her songs.
Oh…isn’t that the cutie from Grey’s Anatomy and Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2? The new doc – I think his name on GA is Dr. Jackson or something.
Interesting video
She looked HAWT!
The video guy from Greys does NOTHING for me!
*side-note* dude is an actor on Greys Anatomy

And what is this dude supposed to be??????? Mixed perhaps? No matter his racial make up, CB look-a-like he is NOT.
@shauny
Well, everything 50cent does is for 50cent.I think we all know that. However, I respect that 50cent doesnt deny that, or make excuses for it. (like jayz does)
I dont think beans will be more successful with 50cent. But I’m glad hes telling his story.
50cent is NOT to blame for this! The failed “friendship” between jayz and beanie sigel and the lack of communication did this.
Same thing with dipset. 50cent didnt do that. THEY did..he just capitolized off it.I think Beans understands at this point its all business. 50cent got the check. hes trying to help him advance.
WHY NOT WORK WITH 50CENT?
Jayz aint doin nothing for him, or that label and doesnt plan on it.Not to mention hes actually subliminally DISSING them ALL on BP3.
@ Shauny
@ Mizz
—–>>>>> 
It seems she reinvents herself with each album…
actually beans aint diss nobody on that song its just a good song only thing makes it a diss song is 50 talking at the end of the song
@ Divine – I agree Mary did go through it, but she stuck to her fan base with ballads and some stuff we could feel her pain cry with her, etc.
What we going to do to feel homegirl’s pain by this video?
just confused at this one.
mizzdallas I here you and I agree BUT I don’t think Beans is smart enough to know that it’s all for business because he’s hurt and wants to get back at his “friend”
Why not work with 50? I don’t know. Ask MOP, Mase, Olivia, Mobb Deep, and whoever else was signed to the label.
@ Shauny,
Couldn’t the same be said for Jay? There are many artist who speak ill or felt burned by him.
But those people are called broke, lazy, haters ect. Can’t the same be said for the ones that fell short under 50? The same way Jay still and Memphis and TaTa. 50 still has his two right hand men (& u know I can’t think of their names… Lloyd Banks/or is he the one who was crying? & the other one who waves his hands in front of his face.. Tony Yayo yeah that’s it.
@shauny
Beans got burned by Dame n Jay so of course he dont have business savvy sense how many thugs on the street have business smart not too many, hopefully dealing with 50 n learning from his past mistakes he will gain knowledge of the business.
And as for Mobb Deep they are NOT mainstream but they did sell a reasonable of amount records, and for Mase at that time Puffy wouldnt allow Mase out of his contract and the other artist i/d/k
I honestly think that jay should let Beans out his contract I would love to hear a full length Beans on 50 cent label but I dont know if they will ever happen…
I love me so Rih Rih but dayum, this is ridiculous!!
Not feeling it at all!! Why would she make this her first single????
I like the video, it is suppose to be dark. Why would a video called Russian Roulette be happy and not dark? I like the new Rihanna, this is the era she is in and not trying to please anyone. I bet if she were with two other girls gyrating it would be okay to some.
Are black people the only group not feeling it?
Isc – I’m not talking about Jay, my comment was responding to mizz question about 50s artists who never had anything released or their lack of promotion.
I’m not defending Jay’s business sense versus 50s…they both are business men at the end of the day. They both make moves that are best for them and them only. That’s why they both are at the top of their game.
This situation and what you’re saying are two different things to me. I didn’t see anything about Jay saying oh…Cam…you have beef with Dipset, let’s make up, do a diss song and then I’ll sign you to my lable and you MAY get a chance to put something out. That’s ALL 50 does. THATS what I don’t like about him (well one of the things anyway)…lol
I don’t like that way 50 uses people for his own agenda.

————————————————–
What r u? Just asking…….
^^Im a black female.
I noticed more white are more receptive towards her new music than blacks. The album is more pop rock…
KD I like all the songs thus far but the wait is over I only like the hook on that one. I always felt RiRi had more YT fans when it came to her music I have always liked her songs but none of my friends do
LOL. SR what we gone do with you?
Twitter, wow SR, you’re on ur way fa real
I don’t like this at all. Too deep and dark for me.
Wow. Not cool.
I’m sorry, but I don’t expect to see that level of violence in a music video. I wonder who’s stupid idea that was.
Oh yeah…..
Now that I have heard the song in it’s entirety I think its really good. A definite pop ballad hit. Go ‘head Miss Rih Rih.
Still ain’t feeling the guns and blood in the video though.
iscream Says:
u don’t like no 50 cent. U better let that go you know when you are with child u have to like everyone. You don’t want ur baby coming out looking like him. J/k
~~~~~~~~~~
You know that is not a j/k. For some reason I could not get along with my baby sis(while pregnant) and when I had my last born she has my little sis’s hair texture, they both love sports, they stand alike talk alike and walk alike. I am just glad that I was not upset at someone ugly while preggos. LOL.
Isc – if my baby comes out looking like 50 I’m coming to find you
I have to stop talking about him because you KNOW I can’t stand him.
I made the mistake of buying her last cd. Now I do LOVE the song but I am not going to buy the album. I will pass this time. Sorry!!!
Sandra U shou;d be ashamed of urself- still dogging this young man! Like the videp,
I like the song, HATE the video. Sorry but it creeps me out.
Rhi should have released Cold Case Love as a single. This video is hot, but the song sucks
I think the video makes me like the song…hearing this on the radio kind of darkens my mood.
I dont like this song
I am so mad cold case love was pulled from utube that song is banging!
