Song |
"FourFiveSeconds" is a song recorded by Barbadian singer
"FourFiveSeconds" received generally positive response from music critics, who praised Rihanna's and West's new direction, their vocals, and the song's minimalistic production. Upon its release the song peaked at number 15 on the US
Background and release
On January 21, 2015, Kanye West made a surprise appearance at the iHeartMedia Music Summit, where he spoke about his career, sang a few songs, and concluded with a collaboration with Rihanna that "featured acoustic guitar and a big, soaring chorus and melody with a massive hook. He then slammed his laptop shut and walked offstage to a standing ovation".[1] Earlier, on January 2, recording artist and producer Ty Dolla Sign gave an interview to Billboard magazine where it revealed that he, West, Rihanna and Paul McCartney worked on a track together, which was yet to receive its final title.[2]
On January 24, Rihanna posted the song on her official website, Rihannanow.com and wrote on her
Composition and lyrical interpretation
"FourFiveSeconds" is a "country-tinged" acoustic[8] and "stripped down" pop song[9][10] with a folk feel[11] and a length of three minutes and eight seconds.[12] "FourFiveSeconds" features a simple instrumentation consisting of only an acoustic guitar and organ,[7] while it's also accompanied by a cello in the background.[13] Instead of being rapped, West's lines are sung,[7] while McCartney only plays the instruments.[8] Billboard's Jocelyn Vena stated that the sound of the single represents a departure from the material present on Rihanna's 2012 studio album, Unapologetic.[14] Hugh Mclntyre of Forbes agreed with Vena who also stated that it "is a complete departure for both Rihanna and Kanye West, though it does fit McCartney’s style".[7] Lanre Bakare of The Guardian called the song an "acoustic ballad" and agreed that the song is a departure from Rihanna and West's previous collaborations.[15] Alex Frank of Vogue magazine described "FourFiveSeconds" as an unplugged version of Rihanna's 2011 single "We Found Love", without the dance beats, present on her previous singles.[16]
Lyrically, it "express emotions ranging from the flip to the resigned".[9] Sharan Shetty of Slate stated that the song is about "heartbreak and redemption",[17] while a Yahoo! News reviewer noted that it is about "personal travails and confusion".[18] Nora Crotty of Elle magazine described the single as an "ode to repenting in the morning for the foolish mistakes you made the night before".[4] Billboard's Vena stated that a plucky acoustic guitar accompanies Rihanna's vocals while she sings the lines, "I think I've had enough/ Might get a little drunk/ I say what's on my mind/ I might do a little time. Cause all of my kindness/ Is taken for weakness." The lines are followed by West's part with him singing, "Woke up an optimist/ Sun was shining, I'm positive/ Then I heard you was talking trash/ Hold me back/ I'm about to spazz." On the later chorus Rihanna and West join vocals as they sing, "Now I'm four, five seconds from wildin'/ And we got three more days 'till Friday/ I'm just trying to make it back home by Monday morning."[14]
Critical reception
"FourFiveSeconds" garnered rave reviews from music critics, and critical acclaim for Rihanna's vocal performance.
Spencer Kornhaber of The Atlantic also praised Rihanna's vocals, writing, "Listen to the ragged squeak in her voice in the first verse, and how she maintains control as she alternates between contemplative trills and gospel shouts during the bridge".[22] According to him, the song showcases the distinctiveness of her timbre and phrasing is, something that wasn't heard on her previous songs like the 2010 single "Only Girl (In the World)".[22] Travis Grier of Def Pen Radio thought that the song is a right choice for Rihanna to achieve legendary status, as, "she's tackled pretty much every genre under the sun and 'FourFiveSeconds' just expands her versatility even more".[11] Crotty of Elle wrote that the song is "awesome" and "sweet".[4]
