Da'Shan Smith of Billboard stated "Love on the Brain" became the most subtly influential Pop single of 2017, as the music industry experienced "a prominent surge of retro-harkening balladry, across different musical genres", following the success of this song on Pop radio; which he described as "a rare find today, because traditional R&B’s presence on the format is an oddity." [32] Marilyn Manson cited Anti as an influence on his band's album Heaven Upside Down, saying "Strangely enough, one of the records that influenced this album strongly, and it can’t be taken literally, is Rihanna, her last record.

Love on the Brain" was the first song commissioned for Rihanna's album Anti. [1] Written by Norwegian songwriter and producer Fred Ball and American songwriter Joseph Angel in late 2013, [1] inspiration for the song came from Prince and Al Green. Ball recalled, "We wanted it to have that juxtaposition of an old school soul feel with modern lyrics. That's why Amy Winehouse was never pastiche or retro even though her music has an old soul sound." [1] Ball also stated that they did not write the song with Rihanna in mind. However, his manager at Roc Nation, Jay Brown, heard the song and loved it. Brown sent it to Rihanna and she also reacted similarly, writing additional lyrics.

While I appreciated and liked some things, I wasn’t enjoying anything. I recall pouring my frustration towards people in my social circle more than in this book. In conclusion, Love on the Brain will most likely be another Booktok hit that breaks the internet, and people will shower these mid-20-year-olds and early 30-year-olds with praise that shows how low the standards genuinely are.

And second, I was glad to see this actually take place in a STEM-related location, specifically a lab to conduct the NASA project. Along with science terms used in every chapter’s title, Levi and Bee’s interactions are primarily in the lab. There are also other scientists, whether working on the same projects as Levi and Bee or not, and a clear representation of who is who. There is a lot of political dialogue hidden through romance and comedy (or an attempt, I guess). We see the gender gap between men and women in STEM, the easiness for men, how women are treated, and the general implications of how much more difficult it is for women. But what if Levi is not the villain of this story and only thing he wants to do this accomplish their mission by working as equal colleagues.

I know the blurb makes it seem like an enemies to lovers trope but truly this book is just a miscommunication trope. The enemies thing is based on a miscommunication which neatly sorts itself out quite soon. Then the main miscommunication starts. This time it wasn’t all that difficult as it was in TLH for me. Love on the Brain by Ali Hazelwood was one of my most anticipated reads of 2022 and once again, I was not disappointed.

I don’t really have much to say about this other than that the bond between Bee and her twin sister is genuine, sweet, and funny. And most importantly, it feels authentic. (Translation: no “hey, little sis!” nonsense here.)

Even though I didn't LOVEEE The Love Hypothesis I did enjoy it overall even though there were some aspects I didn't like (the over-the-top SA storyline for one) and I especially liked how fun it was to read. Sure, Levi is attractive in a tall, dark, and piercing-eyes kind of way. And sure, he caught her in his powerfully corded arms like a romance novel hero when she accidentally damseled in distress on her first day in the lab. But Levi made his feelings toward Bee very clear in grad school--archenemies work best employed in their own galaxies far, far away. ZPAV Polish Singles Chart". ZPAV.
