Rihanna Launches Her Own Record Label

Published: Sunday 25th Jan 2015 by Sam

After years as a Pop puppet, Rihanna is finally ready to snip the strings.

As reported, the vocal deviant departed Def Jam last year to sign on to Universal’s new Roc Nation label.

Already a firm fixture at the Jay-Z helmed company (which she was signed to in a management capacity), it was naturally expected that she’d defect now that the Roc’s business interest include a fully fledged label.

Interestingly, following the surprise debut of the diva’s new single ‘FourFiveSeconds‘ last night, it has become apparent that her new deal

Following a precedent set by rival Beyonce (whose Parkwood Entertainment company conjured up the entire ‘Beyonce’ project), Ms. Fenty has released the song on her newly created imprint – Westbury Road Entertainment:

rihanna-westbury-2-thatgrapejuice

 

Like Parkwood for Bey, Westbury Road is the name of the area Rih grew up in back in Barbados.

Granted the similarities are uncanny, we’ll applaud her for making a boss move. In an industry dominated by males, this sees the Puma model claw back some of the power “in her name” in a smart way. Because, if we’re thinking along the right lines, this essentially means she’s functioning independently (with her own team) and could plausibly take her distribution deal to another major label in the future.

One has to wonder what the inner workings of the deal are with Roc are, though. Strictly distribution? A creative partnership? Perhaps that was the cause of all those disastrous delays?

In any case, kudos!

    There’s so much power in her name if you pop off & you sat it the stadium gonna do the wave. She’s such a f***** lady.

    • FAF January 25, 2015

      Lol

  2. TheTruth January 25, 2015

    Boss ish @ 26!! Glad to see a black woman doing her thing. A lot of these older acts can learn a thing or two.

  3. Jay Jay January 25, 2015

    I love rih!!! But im not feeling this song. It will grow on me though

  4. Indie January 25, 2015

    one of the most immature write ups i’ve ever read..smh

  5. Lolz January 25, 2015

    LMAOOOO AT HER COPYING PARKWOOD ENT. BY NAMING IT A STREET.

    #I CANT #BEYINSPIRED

  6. Jay Jay January 25, 2015

    I was expecting a pop smash! Hopefully this is a promo single

    • FAF January 25, 2015

      I feel like this is more Kanye’s song than hers.. maybe for charity, perhaps?

      • Cupid January 25, 2015

        It’s a really good song. I believe everyone is just thrown off because it isn’t radio material.

  7. Cake like Lady GaGa January 25, 2015

    Didn’t read the whole article, I stopped where sam was comparing rihanna to t*********.. I’m not falling for the stan-war bait, and I hope the navi doesn’t too, coz FourFiveSeconds > all the songs on self titled.

    • Beysus January 25, 2015

      LOL!!! PUH-LEEEAAASE!!!! You think a Dolly Parton reject is better than a Grammy worthy body of work??? F*** outta here!!!

      • Realitycheck January 26, 2015

        And the dolly parton reject you are speaking of is Beyonce? because you could not be speaking of Rihanna. Grammy worthy body of work? a 34 year old singing about surfboard, giving head in the back seat of a limo and all that trash is a grammy worthy body of work? child get a life. You Beyonce stans are ridiculously ignorant, just like your fearless leader.

    • Rosie January 25, 2015

      It’s also better than anything on deviantARTPOP.

  8. RDK January 25, 2015

    i respect, that i wish her all the best.

  9. Emeral January 25, 2015

    The navy swears down Beyonce is copying Rihanna but its clear from the start of her career Rihanna takes notes from Beyonce which is not a bad thing at all. More in terms of career/business moves not necessarily style. Beyonce started Parkwood at 26 as well.

    • Carry On January 25, 2015

      Dumb a***, she is younger than her. In fact, waaaay younger; some one might have told Rihanna to think of a street as a name. She don’t tr!p off no Beyonce; it was never shown. She don’t even act fazed. She has to cooperate to get what she wants in the industry. Beyonce is like to many years older than her. She sang a song about F’in with Master P back in the day and that’s like 20 years ago. I know she wasn’t 13 years old singing like that to a grown man, so she’s old. Check, google is your good friend. If I was Beyonce I would get my own label too; you can’t trust a h** like Hay Z, he might flake on you. Sagittarius (hay Z) in and out on the next if it ain’t popping right.

      • Emeral January 25, 2015

        You sound mad af. Firstly, she is not way younger, the broad will be in her 30s while Beyonce is still in her 30s. Just like they were both in their 20s for a long period of timeIn face she is closer to 30 than she is 20 so stop with that excuse. Your acting like Beyonce is madonnas age or something. And there is video evidence of Rihaana saying Beyonce is her ‘greatest idol’ so stay mad about it and stop being in denial.

      • Emeral January 25, 2015

        In fact*

  10. CT January 25, 2015

    Lmaooo did yall see samanthas thesis? Tell me samantha on a scale from 1 to 10 how depressed are you about this album coming out? Are you having suicidal thoughts samantha?? Its not that serious sweetheart..

  11. KeKe January 25, 2015

    Lol Sam the closet navy stays on Rih’s d*** he should be worrying about his loose gaping bootyhole instead of keeping tabs on someone thats not even his fave but do you the rent is obviously due next month

  12. KeKe January 25, 2015

    Where is boko haram when u need them they need to sort sam out once and for all

  13. gilbert January 25, 2015

    Parkwood Entertainment > Westbury Road Entertainment. I mean the company’s name isn’t even powerful lol. Anyways, congrats Rih………tard 🙂

  14. Yeah I Said It January 25, 2015

    I was willing to give the song a chance but the more I listened the worse it sounded. The song is trash and dull.Hugely underwhelming. And her vocals are deadly (not in a good way)

  15. CT January 25, 2015

    She should have named it fenty entertainment.. its so much power in her name.

  16. Yeah I Said It January 25, 2015

    And death Sams shade is nothing but the truth on this one. She was definitley copying Beyonce, name and all.

  17. Beysus January 25, 2015

    Following Idol Beyonces Footsteps!!!! I CANT!!!

    • CT January 25, 2015

      6 years ago..

      • Beysus January 25, 2015

        I know where you’re going with this and it’s actually 7… Do your research… Who has 1 of 7 albums that reached #1??? *sips tea*

  18. Stephy Jackson January 25, 2015

    Ewww Samantha! Can you NOT bring BEYONCE in every post. Just congratulate Rihanna & keep it movin’! DAMNN! What’s wrong with you???

    • Pat January 25, 2015

      He’s sick.

  19. You stay pressed January 25, 2015

    It’s so hard to read and enjoy this site with all the hate that comes from not only the commenters, but Sam and his other hateful team. The difference between the viewers is they are more entitled to present their opinion’s on this platform, while Sam should take a more professional route and as a journalist (who I’m going to assume has a degree; if not this all makes since) should just present the news/info. This will probably get deleted because same can’t take a critic, but sure can throw jabs and shade harder than most, but I would suggest you just you stop presenting your bias opinion and let the viewers have their own opinion about the topics. Save your opinion for your personal outlets.

    • Pat January 25, 2015

      It’s too late this blogs reputation was ruined a long time ago. Considering this blog is the joke of the blog world, he has nothing to lose.

  20. K** KarTRASHian January 25, 2015

    That Rhianna & Mariah Hate Juice

  21. Dirty Laundry January 25, 2015

    Yall are so mad at Sam but its the same bottoms who continue to come back and give the site hits every time #Suckers

  22. Peaches January 25, 2015

    Sam, you are so obsessed with billboard and numbers. Can we please read about something new. Your site brings nothing new and fresh. I’m also tired of this year 2K font.

    If you spent as much time munching on Rhi’s c***, your site would be flawless(shade, but no shade).

  23. LB January 25, 2015

    Sam is such a messy queen, I think you need a man Sam, that Tindr and G***** app seems to not be getting you the headless torso you want, all the ones you DM are catfished anyway.

  24. Peaches January 25, 2015

    Sam is a queen that takes c*** without lube.

    • LB January 25, 2015

      He is pathetic, he’s the type of queen to let that closeted homo shoot his bro-seed in that as$, can’t say he doesn’t deserve it. Messy queens need to be treated in a messy way

  25. LB January 25, 2015

    That said, Beyonce has got nothing to do with this but you decided to bring her in this so jobless council estate trash and Everest rejects can come troll the internet, and not forgetting the Katy Perry stan for Google clicks.

    Anyway, whilst Rihanna is winning, be content with the fact that you will forever stay mad

    • Beysus January 25, 2015

      Umm Rihbola is not winning…. Where is she on iTunes???

      • datreddone23 January 25, 2015

        Your that pressed your checking itunes lol

      • Beysus January 25, 2015

        It’s YOU’RE Hun… And anyway YOU must be pressed that no ones buying it…

      • LB January 25, 2015

        LMAO He keeps refreshing for the Gods, I bet he broke his mouse clicking away…he needs to afford an iTunes card first before he can hate

      • Beysus January 25, 2015

        Ummm the Nazi needs to if this Dolly Parton reject is gonna chart…

      • LB January 25, 2015

        And yet you’re the one who is pressed and bothered, which explains why you keep refreshing that iTunes page.

      • Beysus January 25, 2015

        And you’re the one that’s broke that can’t even afford a f****** Dolly Parton reject…

      • LB January 25, 2015

        Weak read, go compose yourself and come up with something better.

      • Beysus January 25, 2015

        Why don’t you go and buy the single??? Add “Country Music” to your List Of Reasons Rihanna Is Better Than Queen Bey…

      • Keri Qween January 25, 2015

        She’s #9 on iTunes overall charts, iTunes was having software issue from what I read so it’s updating now check again

        And THISSS is the, era where Rihanna proves the A/I/D/S HIVE wrong, “she’s a puppet, she makes generic music ” that’s two things she’s proven the A/I/D/S Hive wrong in less than 24 hrs hahahaha

      • LB January 25, 2015

        I bought it the day it came out and gifted to a couple of people. Got anything else?

      • Beysus January 25, 2015

        Lol it’s #9 when BEYONCE shot straight to #1… *sips tea* it’s only gonna go down from here… And what does a Keri Hilson stan know about getting a top 10 hit???

      • LB January 25, 2015

        So Beyonce shot to #1, so what?

      • Beysus January 25, 2015

        So what??? Lol you’re so pressed. Go listen to the country s***…

      • LB January 25, 2015

        But I am listening to it and enjoying it, it is such a great mature song and I love it. Anything else?

      • Beysus January 25, 2015

        Lol mature. 3/4 of BEYONCE is more mature than that…

      • LB January 25, 2015

        Good for her, I’m sure 7/11 is the most mature song out there.

        That said, I am still enjoying the song I purchased, is there anything else you needed?

  26. Marley January 25, 2015

    Is Sam lying though lol.

  27. datreddone23 January 25, 2015

    Congrats RIH doing major moves No matter what you do haters gunna hate. People gunna talk whether you doing bad or good so cheers RIRI!

  28. Unbiased January 25, 2015

    Congrats to Rihanna! There is nothing wrong with her following in the women that came before her footsteps. Her naming her label after the street she grew up on like Bey did with her label is not a coincidence, so I don’t want to here it Navy. Bey is a great business woman and has learned from Madonna also, which she stated. Now, I think Bey’s next move is to go independent.

  29. Marley January 25, 2015

    Parkwood Entertainment: Launched at 26 named after a significant address.
    Westborn RD: Launched at 26 named after a significant address. Manged by Parkwoods husband

    Its no coincidence.

  30. Cake like Lady GaGa January 25, 2015

    Lol, @Rosie is still chasing my comments on every thread. I been keeping this transexual pressed since 2013

    • Rosie January 25, 2015

      Is that why you or the other 3 remaining F*** stans are the first ones to perch in every one of my fave’s posts but are M.I.A. in your own fave’s threads?

      • Cake like Lady GaGa January 25, 2015

        Receipts of me on a Lana Fed Rey post? U first need to find a recent lana post. No one talks about fad rey anymore, that’s why sam stopped posting about her. A true fad

  31. Marley January 25, 2015

    Its not a bad thing she looks up to Mrs Carter navy shes said so herself, just admit and you look much less pressed.

  32. Mark111 January 25, 2015

    She been playing A&R and been executive producer since Rated R. The girl been a boss of her ish. It’s a matter of time when her net worth passes her peers and rivals.

    • Mark111 January 25, 2015

      I’ll go even further and say since GGGB. She paid for every video after the 2nd single on each of her albums.

      • LB January 25, 2015

        She is listed as an Executive Producer since GGGB but has made investments in her career since AGLM. She paid for Unfaithful music vid.

    • Special Delivery January 25, 2015

      The reach. Katy did this before (and flopped) and still has a higher net worth.

      • datreddone23 January 25, 2015

        No way Katys networth is more then Rihs shes never topped her on the forbes list every year it’s been put gtfo!

  33. DanYiel Teflon January 25, 2015

    Record Label? LAWD PLEASE LET ALL HER ARTIST SING BETTER THEN HER!! That goatish sound she has ANNOY THE HELL OUT OF ME!!

  34. Cake like Lady GaGa January 25, 2015

    But not @LooseBottom occupying every Riherpes post more than he occupied computicket when Riherpes was in South Africa. A stan online only? Or is it too broke to afford a basic $34 ticket

    • LB January 25, 2015

      So wait a minute, first you accuse me of being from the UK, and then South Africa, and then Botswana, and back to South Africa, make up your mind buddy.

  35. LB January 25, 2015

    Anyway I am so proud of Rih, she has grown as a woman, she is starting her own label, making big business moves and has achieved a lot in a shorter and faster time than many artists out there.

    She is also releasing music of substance, good for you Rih.

    • Mark111 January 25, 2015

      I said it a while ago, she’s going down as a pop legend, may even become Queen of it. That’s why these haters are steaming.

      • LB January 25, 2015

        And now she has got FULL CONTROL of her career, sound and music. She is coming for that legendary status, she’s already an Icon.

        I am now even more excited for R8 knowing DefJam has got nothing to do with it.

      • Mark111 January 25, 2015

        Right?! How many artist is out on their own on year 10? Ooh I know, LEGENDS. MJ, Janet, Madonna, Mariah. Like you said, she’s already an icon, breaking legendary records. She’s coming for that most #1s crown and most record sold.

  36. Paws January 25, 2015

    Not a good move for an artist who obviously can’t even sing and is just a puppet in the industry…. Glad she takes notes from Bey tho she will never have her talent(Dancing nor singing) she will fade away soon she’s nothing to miss in this industry

    • Mark111 January 25, 2015

      Lol, the delusion. She’s only 26, she’s just getting started. Whay Gags going to do now without a huge budget? Lol

  37. flawda January 25, 2015

    Some of ya’ll are some crab in the barrel people. Personally i could care less about the trivial stuff 90 percent of ya’ll argue on here..ie. Beyonce vs Rihanna vs Gaga vs Katy Perry,etc. The bigger picture is black folks owning their own music and controlling their own destiny. This is a good look for Rihanna just like how it was a good move for Beyonce to be independent. I think both are a reflection of being around Jay-z because he has been a independent artist his whole care. They get a bigger piece of the pie and have more artist freedom.

  38. flawda January 25, 2015

    Ya’ll need to stop the petty shyt about looking up to Beyonce when i’m pretty sure Beyonce didn’t get her independent spirit until she started dating Jay-z. The man had to force her to get away from her father for her to develop her own identity and entrepreneurial spirit.

    Just being honest!

    Everyone develops at their own pace though.

  39. Cake like Lady GaGa January 25, 2015

    No one ever accused u of being from UK, you wish u were from there lol. Botswana is 2 hrs away from jhb, if u were a Riherpes stan u were gonna take a bus (coz u can’t afford a plane) to Soweto to see ur fav perform. I was training in Durban when GaGa came to SA, but I took the 500km journey to support my fave. WHY DIDN’T U SUPPORT UR FAVE? Botswana isn’t far, its just across the road

    • LB January 25, 2015

      Durban? JoLagosBurg? You really do live in the gutter places of SA don’t you. Step your game up and move to Cape Town.

      • Cake like Lady GaGa January 25, 2015

        Both Dbn and Jhb are better than the whole of Botswana combined. Not u talking about CPT when u can’t even afford a simple Putco bus ticket to jhb to support ur fave. U probably have never and will never set foot in CPT

      • LB January 25, 2015

        Let’s not pretend like you’re not hating from that Taxi in Durban of all places.

        Wait a minute, why do I bother when your ABSA account probably has a negative balance. Goodbye

  40. Kendall January 25, 2015

    Good for her taking notes from Beyonce…. Beyonces a boss businesswoman.

  41. TRUTH SERUM January 25, 2015

    Now that’s a Boss move!!! Congrats Rhi!

  42. rihanna is groupie January 25, 2015

    It will go bankrupt. She cannot manage money. Rita Ora and Elena Ora would be better running a label than her. Elena ORA is rita’s manager and look how how much they have with the very little they have.

    Rihanna will be broke. She is already brankupt She cannot even manage her own properties without overspending and making a loss. She is done and she will end up broke and Rehab. I told you that she spends millions every year JUST TO take CARE OF HER entourage and their family. What a waste of money and this proves she has no leadership skills.

    The jury is in…..eveyrone hates that back song, which does not work on WACK UNTALENETED woman who cannot sing. SHE put out that leo di capris fake PR just to generate press, cos that is the only way she says. She has payola deal with I heart radio.

    SHE IS DONE!V IF you cannot sell like Beyonce or Adele Forget it. The latter have talent and don’t need to rely on whether they are fuckign a movie star or not. They don’t need radio, either.

    IT IS OVER FOR RIHANNA

  43. trellbeylike January 25, 2015

    Congrats Rih I seen this coming after her last album. She needs more control in her career n this move will definitely give her that. Why all the hate tho. BEY, RIH, both successfully launched their own s*** at 26 n yall fighting over the keyboard tho. Its the same people every single time. Lol

  44. Rosie January 25, 2015

    Every big artist starts their own label now and it’s cool and a great thing as long as you actually do something with it.
    Remember when Katy Perry started her own label? Yeah.

  45. LB January 25, 2015

    Anyway I am going to put this bed to rest. I’m not from South Africa, nor Botswana, I am in a certain place in North America.

    Whether you believe me or not, doesn’t matter. This is the internet and I’d rather have it you psychos don’t know where I live.

  48. ENOUGH ONIKA (NEW & IMPROVED) January 25, 2015

    If her first single from this R8 era is any reflection of the type of trash her label will release…….good luck…

  49. TRUTH SERUM January 25, 2015

    What you people fail to realize is that Bey and Rhi are only enemies in the STANS eyes. Of course they’re similarities because they have close ties I.e. jay z. Kudos, two powerful black women building an empire and legacy. And yes, Madonna taught them.

  50. TRUTH SERUM January 25, 2015

  51. rihanna is groupie January 25, 2015

    Looking her at her copying beyonce. This is won’t work; I’ll break it down.

    Beyonce had a rich,e educated DAD who taught her the business. Rihanna dad is an poor uneducated and drug addict. She did not grow up with tutelage.

    Beyonce is married to a Mogul – Rihanna is h**

    She in constantly in lawsuits, which means she does not take legal advice OR READ THE FINE PRINT. They say” but she wins courts ” BUT, all the millions it takes to fight, in court, means she loses.

    She does not know how to make profit. Look at the countless years she has suffered with her property. She buys to high and sells at a loss. LOL

    She is not talented, so her ability to to pick songs depends on others. She lucked out with Def jam.

    She is sloppy, lazy, idle drugged up mess. Who cane barely get through a tour.

  54. #TeamTinashe Stan January 25, 2015

    Lol. Sam knows what he’s doing and y’all are falling for it.
    Anyways I still am enjoying the song because I ‘get it.’ I still see it having the opportunity to break onto the country radio (although it’s folk) because I’ve seen it so many times. And for her to be doing all these good powerful moves during such a young age should be applauded. I think the gay men are always the first to try make or want females in music to instantly hate eachother. That needs to stop. How about embracing and empowering for a try?

  55. Special Delivery January 25, 2015

    Lol ok. Katy got there before her so Im not really impressed.

    • Mark111 January 25, 2015

    • LB January 25, 2015

    • Mark111 January 25, 2015

      Lol @ Ms. 3rd World. That’s all you and your cleverness.

  67. blue January 25, 2015

    hope its a real record label which will take on other artists besides rihanna, she really does like working with new people so if she can help launch new artists i will be more than happy to give them a chance… anyone know of any artists signed to bey’s label?

    • Emeral January 25, 2015

      Beyonce hasn’t got that point yet. It’s an entertainment company used for her products at the moment not a record label.

  68. Queen BeyOra January 25, 2015

    Beysus is Beyonces biggest hater. Shes not Beyhive. Dont fall 4 it every1. She uses the Queen to hate on Rihanna. Her favorite is Cheryl Cole. She wins here in the uk n I luv hher
    Beysus = Cheryl Cole stan

    • Beysus January 25, 2015

      I’m a Cheryl stan??? Hmmm… Only Human was better than A Million Lights and I like Girls Aloud growing up sooooo….

  71. HOWYOULIKEIT January 25, 2015

    I dont know why people are complaining about the article. Beyonce has been Rih’s idols since the beginning. Do you remember her tribute to DC? She sang lose my breath just for Queen B. Theres nothing wrong with that. Beyonce is Queen is Rih follows. Both ladies are fine and successful

    • HOWYOULIKEIT January 25, 2015

      Beyonce is Queen *and Rih follows

  72. Queen BeyOra January 25, 2015

  86. Peaches January 25, 2015

    Sam, when will Struggle Twins Rita Oral and Christina Milli-non score a record label. As Rita and Christina suck and freak for tracks, they each need a record label. Don’t worry, I will wait.

        How are those receipts ancient? Are you 12 or something?

  98. TheElusiveLamb January 25, 2015

    This is a very good thing for Rihanna. I’m sure Jay-Z (her mentor) told her that she needed to branch off into bigger things and become brand than music since branding makes more money. I honestly wish all of these artists had their own label under their own distribution so they would have more control and not be so reliable on the machine. Good for you Riri. I’m still mad at my fav’s label falling apart. I loved Allure.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2_A3Ia-69U&sns=em

    • TheElusiveLamb January 25, 2015

      Become more of a brand**

    Congrats baby girl. Mother is proud of you. The new song is alright , might grow on me.

    Beyonce learned from Madonna and Rihanna is learning from Beyonce. It’s nothing wrong with that. I wished I had my empire at 26. I got it at 30 doe. Thank you GOD!!!!!!!

  100. Tea honey January 25, 2015

    So proud of my RiRi branching to bigger and better things this lead single was just ok but love the new direction anyways slay mama

    so proud of rihrih, she started on her own without a girlgroup or a daddy that buys her grammy nor did she have a husband who market her as a s** doll. she did this on her own all the way from barbados. am so so happy for her. i can see great things happening for this era. as for beyhives & sam, i dont have words for yall dusty ass f*****.

    • Notafollower January 26, 2015

      Lol Actually Bey started her label on her own her deals have nothing to do with Jay! she set for life with or without that man plus she makes more money thn him on a year basis for years now. Btw you can’t buy Grammys lol don’t hate the player, hate the game

  104. Johnny January 26, 2015

    Oh my

  105. Holly January 27, 2015

    I really dont understand how people are dragging rihanna for trying something out of her comfort zone. Okay she starting her own label? Okay. Jcole did too with Dreamville. They are still under Jayz label and still making more money than u weak b******. F*** u trying to drag someone because of a new project. Foh, and half of u are ignorant asf and really dont have no f****** receipts to check rihanna or bey. So HOW SWAY?

  106. James January 31, 2015

    WOMAN ON FIRE
    by: b.r. UNO

    I’m a woman on fire, can you fill my desire?
    A strong-willed woman who needs a real man
    A real man who can handle all I am
    Can you make me crave for more like I’ve never felt before
    fire, fire, can you fill my desire, I’m a woman on fire

    Ending only: fire, fire, woman on fire

    Do you wanna be the man, can you give me all you can
    You know what is on my mind, can you prove you’re one of a kind

    Now come and show me if you think you’re so great
    When it’s all over, I’ll let you know how you rate
    You gotta move it, give me all that you got
    You gotta prove it, can you hit the sweet spot?

    O.k. big shot, what ya got?
    Leaving no doubt, make me shout,
    O.k. big shot, give me all that you got, hey, hot shot, can you hit the sweet spot?
    The sweet spot, big shot, the sweet spot

    You say you’ll take me up far, you’re gonna make me see stars
    And you got A to Z to bring out the jungle in me

    @Santo Frank Bruno
