All member reviews for "Rude Boy" (CD single)

Gosh Rihanna...really???? It's like Rihanna is in heat. Really?? You can't think of anything else to sing about? It's okay to be sexy, but in a classy way. Too explicit for kids...wrong message for teens!

Ughhhhhh
Ughhh, so I guess now Rihanna is so desperate for attention that she has to actually pretend she's a rock star and "hard"? What exactly is this garbage anyway? The song is basically a stupid hook being looped over and over again. And why is this in the Hip-Hop section? It isn't even rap and it CERTAINLY isn't hip-hop. And my goodness is this really only for people 15+? Cmon are you parents really that naive? I hate to break it to you but "give it to you harder" and "..is it big enough" is NOTHING compared to what they hear in school. I hate to be the bare of bad news but this isn't "hardcore", it isn't for people 15+, it isn't good, and it ISN'T HIP-HOP!

No License, No Song.
Anyone who can't drive, can't listen. Simple. Too many sexual references. Like stated above. CommonSense nailed it. If my mom won't let me listen to it, then it must be bad.

For Mature Tweens and General Teens
First, one should definitely acknowledge that the material and content of the song is majorly directed towards older audiences, regardless of whether it is played on the radio as a poplular tune. Although many may say that the song exhibits sexual messages, "Rude boy" is only a song with some innuendos pertaining to one entire message. Therefore, I believe that this song is "on" for children at ages 14+; however, the parents should discuss it and decide, whether their child is mature enough to handle the content.

Whatever happened to the old Rihanna, I want her back. This is terrible. I don't want to listen to a song with nothing but sex in it. It's pointless and sickening. Yeah, sex sells, but the old Rihanna was better than this! She used to be a role model, is she now? Not to me! I'm not going to support her any longer.

O.K. Song
This is a cool song, but honestly, not a fav of mine. Awesome tune. But: "boy is she big enough" is questionable. And "touch me there", and "give it to you harder". K.

TOO MUCH SEXY LYRICS!
This song is basically saying that she wants a boy to take her body(YUCK!!!) that is saying it's okay for people to love a rapists.If ur kids sing this in public you'll get a warning from people who care about you.

I liked it, it all depends on the child and the parents. My parents are fine with letting me listen to any music I want. This is fine in comparison to other songs.

Rihanna's new single is just plain "rude".
This is a terrible song!! The tune and the beat are good but the words...just horrible! When did Rihanna get so obsessed with being racy?

"Off" for ages 7+, under seven would be EXTRA-OFF. 12+ iffy,between 7-12, IFFY TOO.
OK, now these lines are pretty raunchy;"Boy rude boy can you get it up...boy boy rude boy is it big enough?" "..touch me there--pull my hair". "..give it to ya harder". Rihanna does have some issues to work out.

Not appropriate for all ages, but 16 and older will handle it.
This song has alot of inappropriate stuff like talking about sexy things somewhat.

EW!
This song doesn't sound right,it's about sex like "Give it to me baby like boom boom boom" , or "I like the way you touch me there" and "Buckle up I'm a give it to you "HARDER"(Which you should what that means),It's sound like a 2 couple wants to get dirty

Depends
It all depends on your parents mine are pretty strict and won't let me listen to Omg by Usher cause it has sexy lyrics but then they let me listen to Blow by Ke$ha which is a totally party and get drunk song.

bad song=no young ears
How can parents let their kids listen to this stuff? Rihanna is obviously not a good role model, so it isnt for kids or tweens. Its not even good for teens.
