Artist: Rihanna
The wait is over for one of the most hotly anticipated new albums in recent history, as multi-platinum, award-winning Def Jam recording artist Rihanna returns with her new album 'Rated R'! The first single "Russian Roulette" was written and produced by fellow Def Jam artist Ne-Yo, whose long track record with Rihanna includes the #1 hit "Unfaithful" (2006, from A Girl Like Me), their Top 10 duet "Hate That I Love You" (2007, from Good Girl Gone Bad), and #1 pop/ #1 R&B "Take A Bow" (2008, from Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded). In addition to Ne-Yo, other producers and writers on Rihanna's new album include the team of The-Dream and Tricky Stewart, Chase & Status, Stargate, Justin Timberlake and more.
Rated R is the long-awaited follow-up to Good Girl Gone Bad (May 2007), which contained the non-stop string of hit singles that began with the MTV VMA and Grammy Award-winning global #1 hit "Umbrella" (featuring Jay-Z), then "Shut Up and Drive," "Hate That I Love You" (featuring Ne-Yo), and "Don't Stop the Music." Good Girl Gone Bad spent 98 total weeks on the Soundscan chart, earned cumulative sales of more than 36-times platinum in at least 20 territories around the world, and spun off the CD+DVD package Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded (January 2009) - which continued the string of hits with the #1 "Take A Bow," and the #1 "Disturbia."

"I'm such a _____ lady..."
I was fortunate enough to hear a leak of this album and I must say...everyone is going to be blown away when this is finally released. The pain is evident on every track, especially on the stand-outs: The Last Song, Russian Roulette, Stupid In Love, Cold Case Love....I love the hard edged 'Rockstar 101' and the dance-hall tinged 'Rude Boy'...this album is amazing from start to finish. It's evident how much she's matured and grown vocally...say what you want about her as a person..but as an artist, she's one of the few who's a 'risk taker' and this album is definately proof of that. One of, if not THE best she's released so far. Go Ri-Ri!
