Rihanna's 'Love On The Brain' Inspired Marilyn Manson's New Album
Well, we definitely didn't expect to be writing this headline...
Rihanna has been music's tastemaker for the last decade, with her music ultimately deciding the next trend for listeners and artists alike, and her influence extends to places even we never thought it would.
Marilyn Manson has revealed that the Bajan icon's most recent LP, Anti, inspired his brand new album, Heaven Upside Down.
The eclectic album, noted for how it stretched the limits of R&B to incorporate many different genre tones, influenced Manson's new material "strongly", particularly fourth single 'Love On The Brain'.
We The Best music
DJ Khaled
I don't know if you could take it
Know you wanna see me nakey, nakey, naked
I wanna be your baby, baby, baby
Spinning and it's wet just like it came from Maytag
White girl wasted on that brown liquor
When I get like this I can't be around you
I'm too lit to dim down a notch
'Cause I could name some thangs that I'm gon' do
Wild, wild, wild
Wild, wild, wild thoughts
Wild, wild, wild
When I'm with you, all I get is wild thoughts
Wild, wild, wild
When I'm with you, all I get is wild thoughts
Let's go!
I hope you know I'm for the takin'
You know this cookie is for the baking (ugh)
Kitty, kitty, baby give that thing some rest
'Cause you done beat it like the '68 Jets
Diamonds ain't nothing when I'm rockin' with ya
Diamonds ain't nothing when I'm shinin' with ya
Just keep it white and black as if I'm ya sista
I'm too hip to hop around town out here with ya
Wild, wild, wild
Wild, wild, wild thoughts
Wild, wild, wild
When I'm with you, all I get is wild thoughts
Wild, wild, wild
When I'm with you, all I get is wild thoughts
Ayy, I heard that pussy for the taking
I heard it got these other niggas goin' crazy
Yeah I treat you like a lady, lady
Fuck you 'til you're burned out, cremation
Make it cream, yeah, Wu-Tang
Throw that ass back, bouquet
Call me and I can get it juicy
I can tell you're gone off the D'usse
Careful mama watch what you say
You talking to me like ya new bae
Girl, talking to me like you tryna do things
Now that pipe got her running like she Usain, baby
You made me drown in it, touche, baby
I'm carrying that water, Bobby Boucher, baby
You know I'ma slaughter like I'm Jason
Bust it, why you got it on safety?
White girl wasted on brown liquor
I probably shouldn't be around you
'Cause you get wild, wild, wild
You looking like there's nothing that you won't do
Ayy, girl that's when I told you
Wild, wild, wild
Wild, wild, wild thoughts
Wild, wild, wild
When I'm with you, all I get is wild thoughts
Wild, wild, wild
When I'm with you, all I get is wild thoughts
DJ Khaled!
Wild, wild, wild
Wild, wild, wild
When I'm with you, all I get is wild thoughts
The soulful, doo-wop R&B of 'Love On The Brain' might not be a sound many would match with the rock legend, however he explains its Rihanna's performance and authenticity that made the song so special to him.
“Strangely enough, one of the records that influenced this album strongly, and it can’t be taken literally [sonically], is Rihanna, her last record,” he told Consequence of Sound.
“That one song, ‘Love On The Brain’, it really hit me because I saw her perform it and she just… meant it."
Well, we all know by now that Rihanna's loveable DGAF attitude means everything she does comes from the heart, and this song is definitely one of her rawest releases ever.
That's why it became a double-platinum, Top 5 hit in the U.S. without a music video, and how a pop superstar can influence one of the biggest rockstars on the planet.
Legends only, Rih.
