I've listed this article for peer review because… I want to nominate it for GA status. I really hard worked on it, and improved it, from article in within 2-3 sentences from a section, to an article that kinda deserves to be chosen for Good. Also, thanks to the User:Pixelyoshi, who web cited some of the references. I would be greatful to the user that can peer review the article.

Brief comments from Nikkimaria

I did a bit of copy-editing, more is needed - GOCE should help with that

"Its composition defines a different pace from Rihanna's previous singles." - what does this mean? Try to avoid vague and subjective statements, except for reviews

"The song hqas a strong chorus and a bridge, which is pulled by strong vocals." - phrasing's a bit strange here, and "strong" shouldn't be repeated. Try to avoid excessive repetition where possible

Samples from copyrighted music should be no longer than 10% of the total song - given the length of this song, your sample should be 22 seconds max

File:Russian_Roulette_video_shot.jpg needs a much stronger fair-use rationale. Try looking at music video screenshots on music GAs or FAs to get an idea of what's required here
Changed it. I think that this is the right one... Tomica1111 (talk) 21:40, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Try to maintain a neutral and encyclopedic tone at all times - see WP:TONE
Done
"the single is a bad Céline Dion song with barrel-turning revolver noises that actually sound like a can of spray paint being shook up" - is this a direct quote from the source? If not, needs to be reworded; if so, should have quotation marks

Use a consistent date formatting in references - either "January 1, 2001" or "2001-01-01"

Make sure all web citations have publishers and retrieval dates

Try to make citation formatting consistent - similar sources should be formatted similarly. Nikkimaria (talk) 17:46, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
