Wild Thoughts

Last updated

"Wild Thoughts" kicks off with a bang and that instantly-recognizable Santana guitar melody, before segueing into Rihanna's low, compelling vocals and Tiller's verses. It feels like a spiritual successor to last year's hits "Work" and "One Dance" — but swapping those songs' dancehall vibes for Santana's guitar. Either way, it's an intoxicating bop guaranteed to heat things up.

Uproxx's Corbin Reiff wrote that Rihanna "brings some serious heat", while Tiller "rolls through in the middle to reprise his verse, and brings some serious R&B vibes with along him". [15] Matt Miller of Esquire praised Rihanna's saying that she "completely commands the song, the power of her voice, her presence takes the entire thing over." Miller was less favourable about Tiller and the Santana sample calling their inclusion forgettable. [16] Billboard editor Andrew Unterberger wrote that this is "practically a cover with different lyrics" of "Maria Maria", saying that it is "not a perfect song, but it's a super-fun resurrection of the now 18-year-old single". [8] Elias Leight from Rolling Stone called it "another warm-weather-friendly single" by Khaled. [17]

Carlos Santana's response

Carlos Santana who originally wrote "Maria Maria", the song which is sampled on "Wild Thoughts", praised Khaled's, Rihanna's and Tiller's take on the song. Stating "There is a reason that the infectious groove/theme that Wyclef and I created on 'Maria Maria' still resonates today. It speaks to the heart. DJ Khaled, Rihanna and Bryson take that vibe and bring it to a new dimension with 'Wild Thoughts,' but the groove and essence of the song is still intact." continuing to say, "I am honored that DJ Khaled, Rihanna and Bryson felt the intense intentionality of 'Maria Maria' and have shared this summer vibe with the world." [18]

The Product G&B who originally sang "Maria Maria" had a mixed response to "Wild Thoughts". They stated they were grateful and called the song a "blessing" noting that when they hear "Wild Thoughts" "you hear 'Maria', it’s bringing awareness all around." However they believed that "Wild Thoughts" had stripped the original of its meaning and "its association with West Side Story , where the musical's character Maria stood to represent both the grim reality of gang violence and poverty and the hope for a better life." [19]

Commercial performance

On June 26, "Wild Thoughts" debuted at number four on the US Billboard Hot 100, with 89,000 digital copies sold and 36.3 million streams. The song marked Rihanna's 31st top-ten, Khaled's third and Tiller's first. The song's debut additionally marked the third-highest debut of Rihanna's 60 Hot 100 entries and made Rihanna the fourth woman to make at least 60 Hot 100 appearances, joining Nicki Minaj (78), Aretha Franklin (73) and Taylor Swift (70). [20] In its second week the song rose to a new peak of three on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the first song to debut in the top five and rise in its second week since Eminem's "The Monster", also featuring Rihanna (2013). [21] After slipping to number four on the Hot 100, "Wild Thoughts" rebounded to peak in the runner-up slot and remained there for seven consecutive weeks, but was blocked off the top spot only by Luis Fonsi, Daddy Yankee and Justin Bieber's "Despacito". It also earned Rihanna her record-extending 29th Radio Songs top 10, continuing her lead over Mariah Carey (23). "Wild Thoughts" additionally peaked at number one on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, becoming Rihanna's seventh number one, Khaled's third and Tiller's first. [22]

"Wild Thoughts" became Khaled's and Tiller's first number-one song on the Dance Club Songs chart, and Rihanna's 31st. [23] It is Rihanna's fourth number-one on the chart in 2017, following "Love on the Brain", "Sex with Me" and "Pose", the most among all acts; she is one of only four acts to have achieved four number-ones in a calendar year, one of two to do so twice, and the only one to have done so five times. [23] "Wild Thoughts" is also only one of four out of her 31 chart-toppers whereby Rihanna is not the lead artist. [23]

On July 21, "Wild Thoughts" reached number one on the UK Singles Chart. [24] It is Khaled's second number one in the UK following "I'm the One", Rihanna's ninth, and the first chart-topper for Tiller. [25]

Music video

The music video for "Wild Thoughts", directed by Colin Tilley, was shot in the Little Haiti neighborhood of Miami, Florida, in June 2017. [26] The first images from the shoot were released online on June 6, 2017. [26] The video premiered via Khaled's Vevo channel on June 16, 2017. [1] [13] Katie Skinner from Billboard magazine gave an in-depth review of Rihanna's fashion throughout the music video. Skinner stated that the video had an "upbeat summer nightlife vibe in a tropical Miami setting" which "Rihanna and Khaled carry out that concept by dressing in bright-hued outfits, serving up some serious polychromatic summer looks straight off the runway." During a breakdown of the video Skinner stated that Rihanna's first look saw her wearing a "psychedelic Balenciaga high-waisted floral-print leggings with matching 'Knife' boots, a bright-pink vintage Betsey Johnson crop top and a pair of oversize crescent-shape Lynn Ban earrings." This was accompanied by a floral head scarf, green vintage Versace belt and a pair of pink Karen Walker sunglasses. In the following scene Rihanna wore a "short turquoise off-the-shoulder silk chiffon dress by Alberta Ferretti" along with a pair of gladiator sandals designed by Rihanna and Manolo Blahnik. During the last few seconds of the video, Rihanna stands beside Khaled and Tiller, wearing a bright nylon off-the-shoulder top and cargo pants designed by Matthew Adams Dolan. [27]
