style

The song is a mid-tempo pop song and, like many of Rihanna's songs, contains Caribbean elements such as reggae and dancehall . The bridge before the final chorus can be assigned to dubstep , which is characterized by a syncopated rhythm.

Music video

In the black and white video, Rihanna appears in a leather outfit and fishnet catsuit and lolls lasciviously . It was criticized that the poses were too sexist. In addition, allegations of plagiarism were raised because the lighting and style of the photos in the videos were similar to those of the Norwegian fashion photographer Solve Sundsbo.

Reception and chart success

1 Live rates You da One as a bit quieter and chillier than We Found Love , but no less likely to be hit. Rolling Stone describes the song as "a soft stick of bubblegum with a juicy center" ("a chewy stick of bubblegum with a juicy center").
