Yesterday (October 21), Evans let loose a Twitter rant, blasting the new song, which hit the 'net a day earlier. In the tweet, she started off by pointing out that the bold track might have a negative effect on the public, declaring: "Russian Roulette = Suicidal Rate gon sky rocket!"
The 17-year old singer went on to point out that artists have a responsibility to be aware of the messages they're promoting in their music.
"You gotta watch what u say. Because there are a lot of weak people in the world. They are susceptible to anything so anything you say or do some people actually do listen," Evans said. "So make sure its nothing bad. Its okay to be deep, but not murder deep."Evans might have made a valid point early on, but as the tweets went on, things got a little convoluted when she linked the music industry and celebrities to devil worshipers. "Some of your favorite people pretend to worship God but they only do that to save face. Or seem innocent. Satan was head of music in heaven. He uses influential people ... to help influence the world," Evans wrote. Hmmm. OK.
Unfortunately -- or fortunately -- Evans' diatribe may have been an unnecessary use of multiple 140 character blasts, since Ne-Yo penned the bold, and now controversial track, not RiRi.

I think Tiffany should get a Lifen and get rid of her jealousy...Ri is so dang talented and gorgeous. There are TONS of songs out there that promote more then what you claim to know of the public views. Go Rihanna, ignore the haters. Signing my name because I'm just dang proud of my comment. Boopsie

Rihanna is a joke acting as tho she is a stronge woman, when she is a horrible role model for todays youth. Call it compasion or forgiveness but it comes down to weakness when she was begging them not to do anything to Chris Brown. All her songs are sounding the same she is acting like a hoe sleeping and publicly making out with a lot of guys.

Mucic is a form of art in it's self . I'm from Cincinnati where sensorship is next to GODILYNESS or just plain socialist,remember Maplethorpe exzibit??? To me any art, if it expresses one's self of view it's OK. Nudeness,porn,even heavy- meatal music , which I CAN'T STAND is a form of art at it's finnest.If you visit THE UK it's nothing to pick up a news paper and see a nude model front page.I love Cincinati, but I HATE THE POLITICS here. This is a very conservitive city, one of the worst, but everybody has their opinion!!!

i agree. no one's holding a gun to anyone's head forcing them to listen to the song, so if tiffany evans has a problem then you needs to turn off the radio. you're just upset no one was feeling your so-called music career. take a seat and learn something.

I get what Tiffany is saying. A lot of people will llisten to Rihanna and some fans being suicidal. They will take this song in effect and might commit suicide.

Wow??

i think Tiffany has a good point. i mean i personally don't care for the song at all. and Russian roulette only means one thing! duhhh. in a sense it might trigger people to do something. so good point Tiffany!

I agree, a lot of teenagers do listen to this music. Tiffany made a valid point. You have to be careful what you put out. These kids look up to these stars. It does matter how pretty she is. She shouldn't be promoting his kind of music.There are so many young people listening to this kind of music.

I too like Rihanna's music, however I agree and understand Tiffany's point. Just because one person is not weak, doesnt mean that we should disregaud those that are! The same way one may be influenced to buy what the entertainment industry is wearing they can be infuenced by this as well. If some of us would take time to read the bible sometimes you would see that her statement about the devil is true! A lot of music artist dont believe in God but of course their not going to let it be known, that would ruin record sales for them! Do your own research, and stop acting like these artist are GOD. These are everyday people who have talents that we dont, they have a responsibility too! You dont know them personally so stop acting like it...DAMN! remember they have people on thier pay role (publicist, I think) that tell them what to do, say, and think just to please us. That being said good luck to You, Rihanna, and Tiffany!

Hey I think that tiffany is speaking the truth, but why wait until now to want to speak out?! There are so many other singers and rappers who have not so positive lyrics in their song. I honestly don't think that people really pay attention to what is being said in music anyhow. It's not that big of a deal so she should focus more on herself and her so called career and less on rihanna's.

Instead of Rihanna out here styling and profiling after her situation with Chris Brown she could be a better role model to young girls and women. She could be talking to groups aimed at stopping domestic violence among both women and men. This is the reason I don't have respect for her since I am a survivor of domestic violence and I don't take Rihanna seriously as a woman who's been through domestic violence.

thank you God there is finally a voice in music that is being an entertainer w/o using alot of crap in it to impress anyone, because yes music does influence people into doing all kinds of things in case you havent noticed.music does have a influence to alot of kids some good and alot bad with all the trash talking and the thug look and to me rhianna seems to be getting more and more reckless( to put it nicely)with hertaste in the way she has been dressing lately, yeah they do have an impact on kids of today and its sad that a person can't listen to a song w/o going crazy.thank you Tiffany.

When you have very little talent (like Rihanna) you need to go for shock value to get attention. She is a sad case.

Who The HELL is Tiffany Evans??? It sickens me that losers have to tear down successful people. Kanye West and this NOBODY are two recent examples.
If you don't like something DON"T LISTEN.
I use that point of view when rap music comes on the radio. Rap music talks abouthow "THE MAN" keeps them down. meanwhile they are recording in a multi-million dollar studio. the leave and get into a $100,000 Hummer and drive to their Mansion. Let me be just half that downtrodden and I'll be happy.
