The evolution of Rihanna has been an interesting one, she went from sweet long haired Bajan girl, to a tough, edgy Pop and R&B sensation. And you know what? I love it! I have said it many times that the best thing that Rihanna has done for herself is get angry. I don’t really know what I like about her, I mean, she’s not the best singer, not the best dancer or performer. But the girl is a star. She works with what she has and works it well. her fashion, her edginess, her…Swagger (for lack of a better word).
You know what? SHE’S BACK. And tougher than ever. Her new album Rated – R hits shelves on November 23rd, I had a chance to listen to it, and it is very “bad-ass” the good girl certainly has gone bad! The one blatantly obvious example of this is that in the new album she swears! ahhh ! But I still like it. Some of the songs on the album in my opinion are not as good as others but that is understadable, it is very rare that everysong is a smash hit. Some of my faviourite ones are, Fire Bomb, Photographs ft. will.i.am, Cold Case Love, Te Amo and Hard.
When this album comes out I suggest that you tak a listen to it. It is an album not to be missed!

Here it is! The video that we all have been waiting for (well I have). Okay to start of with, I just don’t think the song as a whole is that amazing, so I guess I wasn’t expecting too much. That being said, the video overall was okay…Beyonce looked “WOW” as usual! I don’t really understand the use of the guns, they look fly and all but I just don’t get it. Also, a tip to ALL female artists; don’t do a video with Beyonce. I’m sorry Lady GaGa I know a lot of people think you’re great myself included, but you’re just not tough enough be to be in a video with the Queen B herself. Beyonce tricked the GaGa! You sly Bey you. Overall I thought the video was rather lackluster, I would have expected some crazy choreography, and a whole bunch of f*erce, but instead we got a “green screen” video. PS. Did you notice that in the beginning of the video Beyonce looked A LOT like Rihanna?! Just a thought.
