"Only Girl" is a song by Barbadian singer Rihanna from her fifth album, Loud. The album's lead single, it was released on September 10, 2010. Crystal Johnson wrote the song in collaboration with producers Stargate and Sandy Vee. Rihanna contacted Stargate before Loud's production and asked them to create lively, uptempo music. "Only Girl" was the first song composed for the album, and the singer decided to include it on the track list before she recorded her vocals. Backed by strong bass and synthesizer, it is a dance-pop song that has an electronic composition. In its lyrics, Rihanna demands physical attention from her lover. Critical response to "Only Girl" was positive; a number of critics praised its composition and Rihanna's decision to move away from the dark themes of her previous album, Rated R. The song reached number one on the United States' Billboard Hot 100 chart two weeks after Loud's second single, "What's My Name? ", peaked at number one.
