Where can you find graphic depictions of kidnapping, nudity, torture, vandalism, forced drug use, drowning, and murder? Probably not even in the worst horror movie, but Rihanna’s new seven minute music video (WARNING: Highly Graphic Imagery) somehow manages to fit in every one of these things.
“Bitch Better Have My Money” tells the story of a sadistic woman (Rihanna), her accountant, and the accountant’s blonde-model girlfriend. The end is bad – Rihanna murders the accountant for not ‘having her money.’ But most of the video doesn’t even focus on this. Instead, it depicts Rihanna kidnapping and abusing the nameless blonde, presumably for ransom.
Just to give a little flavor for those who don’t feel like watching the whole thing: one of the scenes has the blonde swinging from the roof of a warehouse by a rope, upside- down and topless. Another shows Rihanna and a few other pouty party girls forcing the kidnapped girl to chug liquor and smoke from a bong.
Needless to say, with all the degenerative behavior, most people loved it. Newsweek raved , “Thank you, Rihanna, for bestowing upon us not only the song of the summer but the music video of the year.” And how does the “music video of the year” end? In Newsweek’s description: “Rihanna ends the video lying naked on top of the trunk, covered in blood and money and looking unbelievably glamorous.”
“Bitch Better Have My Money” has performed extremely well on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart as well. The song has consistently been in the top 30, having ranked as high as 17 earlier in the summer and topping the US Hot Dance Club chart.

BTW, did you actually take the time to watch it?
I would advise NOT watching this - F-word and stuff I don't even understand. Nicki Minaj was a judge on American Idol!
Don't let you kids even have a computer or phone.

Song sucks,video sucks and the blonde has a fake rack otherwise............
I share the same feeling after seeing this instructional video. Rihanna and her business partners have released this video to instruct the feral youth now terrorizing malls, amusement parks, theaters, restaurants and fountains to up their game to kidnapping and murder.
Want to start a race war.....just have “teenagers” start doing this.

Yeesh
If the races were reversed this would be banned.
It's trashy, but certainly not "disturbing" and grown adults don't need a warning to watch it.
It's no worse than The Godfather which was released in 1972 or The Exorcist in 1973.
I remember that story, didn’t even garner any national attention.
Just like that poor little boy some years ago who was kidnapped, raped and ultimately murdered by two homosexual men in a indescribably horrific manner.
I think his name was Jesse Dirkson but I can’t find any info on it.....surprise.
Wow, that's how you would describe this? Some adult would prefer not too see this and should know what to expect if they do, it's called CONSIDERATION as junior just might me in the background watching too.
It's no worse than The Godfather which was released in 1972 or The Exorcist in 1973.
Can't comment on that to someone who is oblivious to promotion and glorification vs a horror movie or mafia movie that uses graphic scenes to entertain and depicts it as evil.
What an amazingly skeezy ho she is.
That says it all.
A grown adult should have no problem watching this music video. Whether or not they agree with the content is not relevant. I'm not defending the video. It's trashy and inappropriate. What I do have a problem with is GROWN ADULTS giving each other sincere warnings over content that is at best Rated R.
If a GROWN ADULT is shocked SHOCKED to the core over this trashy video, then that person either needs to grow up, grow a pair, or needs counseling.
Kids were watching videos and movies like this 30 years ago.
You're yet another example of my contention that conservatives have become so ridiculously sensitive that we'll never win against liberalism. Most conservatives have become so culturally aloof, that I really can't imagine anybody wanting to join the cause. Most people would laugh at you if you gave them a warning over a music video.
I'm done. Go watch Carebears or The Little Rascals with your blankey.
Bullshit, you're an idiot.
I like to listen to The Doors once in awhile. Some of the songs are good for the kids - the bluesy rock and just all-around different style of music than what they are used to.
Many of them I fast-forward or skip when they come up.
“Father....I want to kill you.
Mother....I want to.........all night long”
Although I’m not sure they ever tried to put that on film.
BTW- The Doors (and lots of music I would think) was/is pushing the boundaries of the culture. I would imagine that Rhianna is trying to do the same thing (nudity, violence, blood, etc.) I wonder how she felt reading in some old-fart’s magazine how “wonderful” the song and video are?
If you choose God, you get the Founders' free America.
If you choose porn, you get kids kicking white people in the head and Obama.
Romans 8:7-8
For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's law, indeed it cannot; and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
Well said donna.
Read my comments, idiot. This video is not porn. I am NOT defending the video. However, there were PG rated movies in the theaters decades ago that are harsher than this video.
I simply think that grown adults warning each other over PG rated content is weird and ridiculous. So do most normal and rational people.
