Tras el lanzamiento de Rated R , algunos críticos destacaron la diversidad musical del álbum, mientras que otros comentaron la fuerte influencia del dubstep en la canción. La canción no tuvo éxito comercial, convirtiéndose en uno de sus sencillos con peor desempeño hasta la fecha. "Wait Your Turn" alcanzó el top 20 en la lista de R&B del Reino Unido . La canción no logró entrar en la lista Billboard Hot 100 de Estados Unidos , convirtiéndose en el segundo sencillo de Rihanna que no alcanzó dicha lista (" We Ride "), y uno de los pocos sencillos que no entraron en ella. La canción fue interpretada en vivo como parte de un popurrí con "Hard" en los American Music Awards de 2009 y en Good Morning America , junto con " Russian Roulette " y " Umbrella ". La canción también se incluyó en el repertorio de la gira Last Girl on Earth Tour (2010-11). Como parte de la promoción del lanzamiento de Rated R , se realizó un video musical dirigido por el colaborador habitual de Rihanna, Anthony Mandler . Una remezcla de la canción cuenta con la participación del rapero estadounidense Joell Ortiz , miembro de Slaughterhouse .

Antecedentes y publicación

"Wait Your Turn" was written by Tor Erik Hermansen, Mikkel S. Eriksen, Saul Milton, Will Kennard, James Fauntleroy II, Takura Tendayi and Rihanna, with production of the song helmed by the former four, under their stage names StarGate and Chase & Status, respectively.[1] It comes from the recording sessions for the Rated R album, which took place during March to November 2009 at several recording studios throughout United States and Europe. After the song leaked online toward the end of October 2009,[2] it was used in a promotional video for her first televised interviews since the alleged assault on her by then-boyfriend Chris Brown, singing the line, "The wait is ova", which is part of the lyrics.[2][3] Eriksen of StarGate, who co-produced the song, had confirmed "Wait Your Turn" as the second single from Rated R; it was later released as the second international and third overall single.[4][5] The song was made available for digital download via iTunes on November 13, 2009, in Australia,[6] Austria,[7] Brazil,[8] Finland,[9] Italy,[10] Norway,[11] Spain,[12] Sweden[13] and Switzerland.[14] The song interpolates "The Bridge Is Over" by Boogie Down Productions.

Composition

"Wait Your Turn" was one of many songs featured on Rated R that incorporates musical genres different from any of Rihanna's previous work, drawing heavily on dubstep and hip hop genres.[2][16] In her review of Rated R, Ailbhe Malone of NME briefly commented on the song, calling it "an electric backstreet stiletto stab, where, eyebrow cocked, Rihanna sings 'I’m such a fucking lady/You don’t have to be afraid.'"[17] Leah Greenblatt of Entertainment Weekly observed that Rihanna was drawing a lot of inspiration for several of the songs on the album from her Bajan background and heritage, most noticeably in her style of singing, saying "Throughout, Rihanna dons hip-hop swagger like borrowed armor, leaning heavily on her Caribbean accent and unleashing a string of baddest-bitch boasts via dancehall-riddim'd bangers like 'Hard', 'G4L' and 'Wait Your Turn.'"[18] Alexis Petridis of The Guardian referred to "Wait Your Turn" as a response to Rihanna trying to move on from her innocent "Umbrella" pop star image, commenting "At the other, however, the desire to escape the single's vast shadow has clearly led some of her collaborators to indulge in feats of impressively risky invention: the hypnotic, dirgey electronic grind of Wait Your Turn, Gangsta 4 Life's druggy, intoxicating mix of backwards drums, minor-key verses and spectral backing vocals."[15]

Reception

Critical response

Greg Kot del Chicago Tribune señaló que Rihanna asume el papel de víctima en la canción, y no el de la agresora, diciendo: "Desconfía de los hombres incluso cuando coquetea con ellos en ' Wait Your Turn ' ". [ 19 ] Antes de la reseña del álbum Rated R de Greenblatt , donde comentó brevemente sobre "Wait Your Turn", también reseñó la canción cuando se filtró en Internet a principios de noviembre, diciendo: "Ahora que la espera casi ha terminado, ¿lo sienten, Music Mixers? No puedo mentir; estoy un poco decepcionada por esta nueva encarnación de Pirate caminando por la plancha". [ 20 ] William Goodman de la revista Spin fue más crítico y desdeñoso con la canción, diciendo: " ' Wait Your Turn'  ... se filtró en línea durante el fin de semana, y al igual que la canción principal del álbum, 'Russian Roulette', es una decepción total: voces torpes y con Auto-Tune repiten ' The wait is ova / The wait is ova ' hasta la saciedad, sobre atmósferas oscuras y un ritmo dub minimalista que no logra conectar  ... ciertamente no vale la pena la espera." [ 21 ]

Rendimiento en las listas

"Wait Your Turn" hizo su primera aparición en las listas el 26 de noviembre de 2009, en la Lista de Sencillos Irlandesa , donde debutó en el número 32 y permaneció durante una semana antes de salir del Top 50. [ 22 ] [ 23 ] La canción debutó en la Lista de Sencillos del Reino Unido en el número 45 el 5 de diciembre, [ 24 ] antes de caer al número 75 la semana siguiente, que fue su última aparición en la lista. [ 24 ] Sin embargo, la canción tuvo más éxito en la Lista de R&B del Reino Unido , donde debutó en el número 17 el 5 de diciembre, [ 25 ] donde permaneció en el Top 40 durante tres semanas consecutivas. [ 26 ] La canción ha vendido desde entonces 20 000 copias digitales en el Reino Unido. [ 27 ] En la semana que comenzó el 7 de diciembre, "Wait Your Turn" debutó en la Lista de Sencillos Australiana en el número 82, antes de salir de la lista la semana siguiente. [ 28 ] [ 29 ]

Vídeo musical

The music video for "Wait Your Turn" was filmed on October 16, 2009, in New York City[30] and was directed by Anthony Mandler,[31] who had previously directed the majority of Rihanna's music videos, including "Take a Bow" and "Rehab".[32][33] Music video was edited by Nabil Mechi from Murex, who previously edit videos for "S.O.S." and "Umbrella".[34] The music video made its premiere on November 9, 2009.[35] In an interview with MTV News, Mandler spoke of the conceptualization of the video as well as the inspiration behind it:

We shot the clip in mid-October on a cold day in New York City. The vibe and feeling was great ... It was the first video for the album, so obviously everyone was excited and focused on setting the tone for what's to come. Rihanna and I spoke in depth about creating a piece that was gritty, raw and more of a street video then a classic beauty piece ... We loved the energy and bravado of early hip-hop videos that were made without a lot of resources, working more with the textures and shapes of the surroundings, then trying to build and manipulate environments as we have done in the past ... I wanted to try and take everything we have done in the past and put it to the side.[36]

It starts with a series of shots displaying Rihanna wearing a black eye-patch, a high-necked jacket and suspenders, and was filmed in a black and white grainy fashion, whilst Rihanna recites the lyrics "The wait is ova". Scenes are then intercut with shots of Rihanna wearing a black hooded top, in what appears to be a Church, which is followed by Rihanna changing outfits, again wearing a black bra top and a fur coat sitting on a pair of Angel's wings for the chorus. For the bridge of the song, Rihanna is featured in yet another change of outfit, this time wearing a white vest top and black fur coat, standing on the roof top of a New York skyscraper, with other tall buildings in the background. As Rihanna sings the final chorus, scenes from throughout the video are intercut with each other, with the new addition of Rihanna shown to be wearing what she wore at the start of the video in an underpass.

Live performances

Como parte de la promoción de Rated R en el Reino Unido, Rihanna interpretó la canción por primera vez en el lanzamiento del teléfono inteligente Nokia X6 en la Brixton Academy de Londres. [ 37 ] Interpretó la canción como parte de un repertorio que incluía canciones del álbum, como "Russian Roulette" y "Hard", para esta última acompañada en el escenario por Young Jeezy , quien participa en la canción. [ 37 ] El repertorio también incluyó otras canciones de Rihanna, como " Don't Stop the Music ", " Take a Bow ", " Disturbia " y "Umbrella"; para esta última, Rihanna estuvo acompañada en el escenario por Jay-Z . [ 37 ]

Rihanna interpretó la canción en vivo por primera vez en los American Music Awards de 2009 , que se televisaron el 22 de noviembre de 2009 en el Nokia Theatre de Los Ángeles , California, como parte de un popurrí con el segundo sencillo lanzado del álbum, "Hard". [ 38 ] En su reseña de la actuación, Gil Kaufman de MTV comentó sobre los aspectos principales del espectáculo, comentando que llevaba un "mono blanco ajustado dividido por líneas recortadas que revelaban líneas horizontales de piel a lo largo de su cuerpo, hombreras con pinchos, puños blancos con tachuelas y una pulsera de alambre de púas que serpenteaba por su antebrazo derecho". [ 39 ] La actuación comenzó con un videoclip de temática de ciencia ficción, en el que Rihanna era operada por robots. Después de terminar "Wait Your Turn", Rihanna hizo la transición a "Hard", mientras láseres rojos brillaban por todo el escenario y el público, así como desde sus hombreras con pinchos. [ 39 ]

On November 24, 2009, Rihanna appeared on Good Morning America, where she performed "Wait Your Turn" and "Russian Roulette" from Rated R as well as "Umbrella" from Good Girl Gone Bad (2007).[40] The set featured Rihanna wearing "a white sequined blazer with a little black shirt underneath and stilettos", and was joined on stage by a group of dancers, who were all dressed in black.[40] Rihanna also gave a short interview about the album and the level of energy which was put into it, saying "It came very natural only because it was my place of peace, being the studio just venting. It was the one place I didn't feel judged or criticized. Every emotion went into that album."[40] The song was also included on the set list of the Last Girl on Earth Tour (2010–11) in the encore section, as part of a medley with "Live Your Life" and "Run This Town", before performing "Umbrella" as the final song. On June 24, 2012, Rihanna performed at the BBC Radio 1's Hackney Weekend. She performed "Wait Your Turn" as part of a set list which also included songs from her fifth and sixth sequel studio albums. The performance featured giant sphinx on the stage.[41]
