I know this song has been out for a bit, but I thought it would curl up and die rather than get more popular.  I’m a bit surprised the leather community hasn’t said a bit more about it.  Maybe they have, and I’ve just missed it.  But to me, not only is the song a big meh, but the video isn’t very good either.  I present it below in case you haven’t seen it yet:

Now, I have nothing really against Rhianna.  (I don’t really have anything for her, either.)  But a song called S & M needs to be a lot darker, and push the envelope way more than she does here.  I guess I gotta give her some credit for doing an S & M themed song in the first place, but if you’re going to do it, do it right.  It just seems so… vanilla.  I can already imagine all the pretty bois dancing slutty to this at the next Pride event, imagining how kinky they are.  Uh, not so much.  Not to mention the David LaChapelle rip off.

Sorry, I just had to get that off my chest.
