As "B**ch Better Have My Money," the latest of Rihanna's songs, becomes one of her most successful ones to date, it seems like there's someone out there, the world's favorite artificial intelligence, that's not really digging the Barbadian singer's sound, as Siri seems to think "loud farts" means "Rihanna."
In the latest experiment from Siri users, someone attempted to ask the Apple intelligent personal assistant to play "loud farts" and, instead of getting no response, they were quickly directed to one of Rihanna's songs, prompting headlines about the knowledge navigator's "sass" towards the "Diamonds" singer.
If you ask, you shall recieve... something.

It was Mashable who discovered this weird new link to Rihanna's songs, after they discovered someone on Facebook asking people to ask Siri for "loud farts" - which quickly directed them to listen to Rihanna's collab with Drake "What's My Name" on the new Apple Music service.
According to Cosmopolitan UK, Siri goes even further: in case you don't have any of Rihanna's songs on your Apple Music account, Siri will actually direct you to a radio station that's playing "similar songs" to "What's My Name," so there's definitely something fishy going on between the automaton and the "Diamonds" star!
First attempt, seems consistent even if you don't have the song. Un vídeo publicado por Andrea Romano (@theandrearomano) el 13 de Jul de 2015 a la(s) 8:39 PDT
BuzzFeed reports that the Rihanna's songs new play is hardly the first time that Siri "throws shade" at users when they're asking silly or ridiculous questions, as Apple's personal assistant has famously given clever responses intending to playfully trash users, like telling them they have "no friends" when asking what's 0 divided by 0.
For now, there have been no comments from RiRi herself and while she's known to throw some diss herself, it seems unlikely that she'd go against an automatic response, though it's unclear why exactly Apple equates "loud farts" to the 2010 hit song.
In any case, it seems like the "loud farts" leading to Rihanna's songs only happens in the U.S. store.
