Great post. Disgusting facts. RiYAWNa is not deserving to be in the same category of any of those artists. This is a sad day in music history. As a real fan of real music, l shall bow my head in shame & plug my ears for protection.

Im not trying to bring Rihanna down but trent does has a point…how many of us will honesty remember most of rih’s songs in 20+ years…like me personally I don’t wont rih to have all this major success and in 10 years we question “what happened to Rihanna” but hey..if her fans don’t believe she needs a break or take some time for herself to comeback harder and be better than what she is today then so be it because from the looks of things she’s gonna be forced to take a break!!!!

GREAT POST Trent!

As easy as it is to get a number one nowadays, this is worthless

Let’s be honest, in this day and age, #1s don’t mean as much as they once did. So Rihanna having 11 #1s doesn’t mean much to anyone but her stans. I like Rihanna’s music and eveything but her music pales in comparison to Mariah, Whitney, and all in the 11 and Over Club so this accomplishment isn’t really considered a true accomplishment and will be disregarded by most.

i certainly won’t remember them. damn i already forgot. they are now songs.

all that rembering crap is subjective because I couldnt sit here and tell you ALLLLL of Mariah’s fuckin no.1s ethier. alot of them were industry tricks she would pull. Who remembers “loverboy” or “touch my body”. seriously. some will be remembered and some wont so shut the fuck up ugly bitches

I think this list lacks in info: Diana Ross is the first female with 18 #1s (she sang lead on 18) Michael Jackson (sang lead on 17)

Somewhere, Mariah Carey is sippin on tea, plotting to take over the airwaves again..

Trent…………. you the homie………… but give props where props are due without the SHADE.

LOFL if it were so easy to get #1′s now, why dont Beyonce have more? Oh I know why because her music is all garbage

@dee
but honestly “Umbrella” is very memorable

Mariah Carey’s songs are all basically memorable. Rihanna is by far outclassed. Rihanna stans know nothing about music. They need to sit down somewhere with her and her lollipop cookie dough music.

okay………. so Rihanna has many writing credits and regardless if she only worked on the styling of Rudeboy, the way it was sang and put down on the track shes still put down as a writer on the track. Whitney has not written ANY of her #1 hits but has produced 1. As well as Rihanna she was many songs that she took part in writing that NEVER hit the #1 spot. Even her biggest single was an original by Dolly Parton, but everyone knows that. Furthermore The Supremes never put pen to paper because the Holland brothers and Lamont Dozier wrote EVERY one of their hits. to dig even Deeper Diana never wrote any of her 6 (out of 90 singles) hits. Sooooooo Let Rihanna be whether she wrote a top single or not she still deserves to be there just like the rest of them because in 10 years no one will remember any other the other folks music as much as they will remember hers because she will still be relevant.

Not hating on Rihanna but Trent has a point. What is happening to music? Were settling for less. Rihanna has very little talent and we all know thats true and she almost has the same number one’s as Michael Jackson? But nowadays getting a #1 aint shit

Umbrella is more iconic than We Found Love. Most people won’t remember it years from now. It’s like junk food. Still, congrats to RiRi!

@kris– I think I stated that. I made my point! go back to hell. MOST OF THESE SONGS THAT HIT #1 ARE SIMPLY FOR A ONE WEEK IMPACT….look at KATY PERRY’s remix lift her ass to 5#1 from one cd….I think its better to look at the sales of the single. Songs that never hit #1 – sometimes outsell a song that remain at #1 for weeks…BILLBOARD CHARTS SUCK

Great Post Trent.
Your really improving your site. I like that its not about hating artists.
To see the difference between now and then is mind blowing.
