About No Love Allowed

"No Love Allowed" is a song recorded by Barbadian singer Rihanna for her seventh studio album, Unapologetic (2012). The singer co-wrote the track together with Sean "Elijah Blake" Fenton, Alexander Izquierdo, Steve Wyreman and Ernest Wilson, who produced it under his production name No I. D.. Kuk Harrell and Marcos Tovar recorded the song at Record One Studios and Westlake Recording Studios in Los Angeles and Metropolis Studios in London; Harrell also did the vocal production. "No Love Allowed" is an electro-ragga and reggae song with an instrumentation consisting of a bubbly, dubbed-out groove, Caribbean and dubstep beat and loping drumless rhythms. "No Love Allowed" received acclaim from contemporary music critics; many of them labeled it as a standout track on the album and likened it to the works of Jamaican musician Bob Marley and Rihanna's 2011 single "Man Down". Following the release of Unapologetic, "No Love Allowed" debuted on the charts in France, the United Kingdom and the United States. It peaked at number 101 in France, number 24 on the UK R&B Singles Chart, number 131 on the UK Singles Chart and number three on the US Bubbling Under R&B/Hip-Hop Singles. The song was included on the set list of Rihanna's 2013 concert tour, the Diamonds World Tour. more »
