Hate That I Love You

Last updated

When people tell me that my song-writing style seems like it could have come from the '60s, '70s, or early '80s, I take that as a compliment. Back in the day, people paid more attention to the poetics of the love song. Today [in songs] there is usually more sexual element than a romantic one. The best way to express an emotion like love is through storytelling. It makes it more 'I can relate to this character in this song, because I've been through something similar.' You hear that kind of storytelling in the song that I wrote for Rihanna called 'Hate That I Love You'. [4]

"Hate That I Love You" was released as the third single from Good Girl Gone Bad. Def Jam Recordings serviced it to contemporary hit, rhythmic and urban radio stations in the United States on August 21, 2007. [5] [6] A seven-minute-long K-Klassic remix of the song was released digitally on October 22, 2007, in more than twenty countries.[ citation needed ] On October 29, 2007, a two-track extended play (EP), featuring the album version of "Hate That I Love You" and the K-Klassic remix, was released on iTunes.[ citation needed ] In November 2007, "Hate That I Love You" was released as a CD and Maxi single in Germany.

Composition

"Hate That I Love You" is a midtempo pop and R&B song with folk influences that runs for 3 minutes and 39 seconds. [12] According to the digital sheet music published by Sony/ATV Music Publishing at Musicnotes.com, it is written in the key of A-flat major and Rihanna's vocal range spans nearly an octave and a half from F3 to B♭5. [11] Sal Cinquemani from Slant Magazine wrote that "Hate That I Love You" maximizes Rihanna's vocal range. [13] The song uses piano, strummed guitars and 4/4 beats, combined with Rihanna and Ne-Yo's vocals, following the D♭2-E♭2-E♭7-B♭7 chord progression. [11]

Critics compared "Hate That I Love You" to previous works by Ne-Yo. [13] Nick Levine from Digital Spy called the song a "second cousin" of Ne-Yo's singles "Sexy Love" and "Because of You". [12] Regarding the lyrics, Rihanna said, "When you're in love with someone, even though they keep hurting you, you're so naive and you love them so much that you put all the negative behind even though you keep getting hurt." [14]

"Hate That I Love You" received generally positive reviews from critics. Taila Kraines from BBC Music called it a gorgeously simple modern duet. [15] A reviewer from The New York Times called the duet breezy. [16] Quentin B. Huff of PopMatters was unconvinced that "Hate That I Love You" is a full-fledged ballad, but praised its catchy and smooth composition. [17] Critics compared "Hate That I Love You"'s composition to Beyoncé's "Irreplaceable". Jackie Hayden from Hot Press called "Hate That I Love You" "the prettier twin of 'Irreplaceable'". [18] Sal Cinquemani from Slant Magazine criticized the song, and called it a lazy carbon copy of "Irreplaceable" and Ne-Yo's "So Sick". [13] Sarah McIntyre of RTÉ.ie concluded that the single "brings mournful acoustic guitar strumming, embarrassing harmonising and trite lyrics to a dreary whole." [19]

In a review of Good Girl Gone Bad, Norman Mayers from Prefix Magazine wrote that the songs which were written by Ne-Yo "don't necessarily gel with the more club-oriented material on the album." [20] Digital Spy's Nick Levine called the single a "folky, midtempo R'n'B mush-fest", and said that, "The whole affair is smoother than Lulu's forehead in the new Morrisons [UK supermarket chain] ad, but it's almost criminal that Rihanna's releasing this when 'Breakin' Dishes' and 'Don't Stop The Music', a couple of flat-out floorfillers, are still stuck on her album." [12] The song received two nominations at the 50th Grammy Awards held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California, including for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal and Best R&B Song. However, it lost to "Disrespectful" ( Funk This , 2007) by Chaka Khan featuring Mary J. Blige and "No One" ( As I Am , 2007) by Alicia Keys respectively. [21]

Music video

The music video for "Hate That I Love You" was filmed in Los Angeles, California and directed by Anthony Mandler, who also directed the videos for Rihanna's singles "Unfaithful" and "Shut Up and Drive". Photographs of the production showing Rihanna wearing a cream bra and gray skirt were leaked on the same day. [40] The video premiered on September 24, 2007, [41] and was digitally released September 27, 2007, on iTunes. [42]

The video's opening scene shows the sun rising and Rihanna waking up. Meanwhile, Ne-Yo walks along a street, wearing a hat that obscures most of his face. Rihanna is in her room; she is bored and wondering which clothes to wear, and she finds a gold necklace. As the song starts, Rihanna lies in bed and sings, while Ne-Yo continues walking along the street, approaches the hotel and cautiously looks around before entering it. Meanwhile, Rihanna dresses, [40] leaves the room and walks through the hallway of the hotel. Ne-Yo goes in an elevator to the floor of Rihanna's room. As Rihanna waits near the elevator, it opens. Ne-Yo and Rihanna meet and smile at each other as Rihanna enters the elevator and Ne-Yo exits. It is then revealed that Rihanna and Ne-Yo are not singing about each other, but different people. As the video progresses, Rihanna is downstairs, chanting the lyrics of the song and Ne-Yo is in a hallway. He knocks on a door, which his girlfriend opens, and he enters the room. Rihanna simultaneously climbs into her lover's car and they smile at each other. The video ends with the previous scenes showing Rihanna leaving her hotel room. A reviewer from MTV UK commented, "After Shut Up And Drive the 19 year old is going even raunchier for this vid- writhing around on a bed in her underwear and pearls." [43]

An edited version of the video was produced for the Spanglish version of the song, in which Ne-Yo's scenes are cut and replaced with scenes featuring David Bisbal. The Spanglish version of the video shows Bisbal watching the scenes of Rihanna on film being projected while he sings the song's lyrics.
