Somewhere out in the world, there’s a perfect—or close to perfect—man or woman for each of us. It’s finding ‘em, of course, that’s the problem. With the latest single off her sixth studio album, Rihanna takes advantage of her unique position as a heavyweight pop starlet, using radio airwaves and club sound systems everywhere to send a message to that special man, “Where Have You Been all my life?” Like hit lead single We Found Love, this cut is exquisitely crafted to get bodies out onto the dancefloor. Dr. Luke, Cirkut and Calvin Harris put together a pounding juggernaut of a house instrumental, supplementing the requisite four-on-the-floor percussion and dizzying crescendos with pop-rock guitar strums and grinding, dubstep-informed bass. RiRi turns in a characteristically spirited performance, channeling her emotion into verses that, though lyrically minimalistic, come drenched with heartfelt longing. Has Rihanna got another hit on her hands? In addition to catching the record at radio starting May 8, fans can still cop the singer’s Booth-approved new album, Talk That Talk, wherever fine music is sold.

This song first appeared on the R&B / Pop Chart on April 16, 2012

Logical next single for Rihanna. Its amazing the legs each of her albums have after their initial drop. Kudos for her continued charting success. This record should be no different.

Not a big Ri fan but this track bangs if mixed in correctly. She likes surfing the top 40 waves.

Calvin Harris is mean with those beats. Not sure if this will catch on like her previous hits, but its definitely pushing the boundaries, pop wise.
