Higher
Rihanna · Other Songs - Rihanna
This whiskey got me feelin' pretty
So pardon if I'm impolite
I just really need your ass with me
Higher, higher than I've ever been, babe
Just come over, let's pour a drink, babe
I hope I ain't callin' you too late

The track features a driving, repetitive beat that anchors the song's infectious energy, while Rihanna's vocals deliver a message of empowerment and self-assurance that resonated globally. As a key component of her discography from that time, the recording exemplifies her ability to blend pop sensibilities with rhythmic complexity, cementing her status as a leading figure in contemporary R&B and pop music. The song's enduring appeal lies in its universal themes of ambition and confidence, making it a staple in her catalog of high-energy tracks.
