Barbadian singer and songwriter, Rihanna, song titled “Bitch Better Have My Money” was released in the year 2015. The popular song had previously landed as number four in Pitchfork’s, “Best of 2015” list. Just as the title of the music video proposes, the main concept is, “Bitch Better Have My Money”; a concept in which Rihanna is indicating how someone owes her money and needs to pay it forward. This is not the only notion an individual could get from the song lyrics. The song could be referring to demanding respect from someone, gaining ethnic dominance, instigation to violence, or even females being used as objects. Set in a secluded area that includes vehicles driven only by Rihanna herself, a motel room, the “Bitch” living room, a gas station–just to name a few, “Bitch Better Have My Money” tells a sequenced story about how an accountant owes her money and does not pay up his dues when needed. The strong theme of the song is pay up what you owe or there will be consequences involved. Music directors, Megaforce and the star Rihanna herself demonstrated several of angles, vibrant colors, and even slow pans to make the video as popular as it is now.
At the beginning of the video, we first see an unidentified individual sitting in a box.

Her lyrics are very real to say, she talks about how people see other people. She also talks about how people don’t value others, and how did replace people real quick. She also states don’t think that you can have my love to waste, she is defending her honor in a way. She’s talking about how people are seen and how they are undervalued, but she is basically saying don’t undervalue me. She is saying that she’s not like everyone else, that she shouldn’t be seen as everyone else has been

In an article called ‘ladies first’: Queen Latifah’s Afrocentric feminist music, it talks about issues raised by feminist rap; rap that focuses on women’s importance, and the demand for equal treatment, and for the need to encourage each other. “Queen Latifah's feminism draws on the patterns of rap to assert the importance of women promoting themselves and other women. Rap, like all other forms of popular music, is not inherently feminist, but in this genre, as in other popular genres, female performers use specific generic qualities to promote a feminist message. Rap is noted for its emphasis on lyrics, and through the lyrics, female rappers make explicit assertions of female strength and autonomy.” Women talk about how they need to be seen as equal to a man through their lyrics and for women to encourage other women. That will push back the negativity from the male rappers toward the female rappers. For an example in a song called U.N.I.T.Y by Queen Latifah she said “Every time I hear a brother call a girl a b*** or a h*, trying to make a sister feel low, you know all of that got to go” Throughout her song she is letting male rappers know that they can’t be calling women those types of names, no matter what. Through time, the hip hop community is and will keep pushing back the misogyny and violence that rap
In the music videos, I saw women being mistreated. I can’t knock someone’s hustle but I don’t think artists need to take their videos to the extreme. I didn’t feel like Biggie, Tupac, and Cash Money [popular artists in the early 90s] were as fixated on the women. They were more about showing off their money and cars, and clothes.

Rihanna and T.I. song “Live Your Life” was based upon haters. People wanted what he had and went the wrong way of getting it. Some of the people hating on him were old friends and/or people he used to hang with, because he didn’t let them stop what he was moving towards. The song stated “you’re gonna be, a shinin’ star, in fancy clothes, and fancy car-ars” meaning don’t focus on the things you don’t have right now, those things are going to come later on in life.
This song has a lot of emotion behind it. I believe that when Beyoncé sings this song, she is sending off a message to the families of those who lost their lives during 9/11. She is singing from the victim’s point of view saying to remember me for the positive impact I have made in the world and how I strived to make the world a better place. She is singing to tell us that no matter how rich, successful, or famous you may be, always live your life to the fullest because you never know when it
