Let’s take it back to 2007…the year Rihanna became Rihanna.
With two well-received but so-so selling albums behind her, the entertainer stepped into 2007 armed with a fresh batch of hits (some penned with Mary J. Blige, Britney Spears and Nelly Furtado in mind) and a bold new look designed to ensure she stood out when placed next to the bevy of Urban Pop starlets she once trailed behind.

The era was so impactful that Def Jam felt compelled to give it a fresh set of legs via the ‘Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded’ campaign.

Her Era’s are LOUD and GOOD GIRL GONE BAD. She was Fly. Fashion forward. Took Chances. EACH and EVERY SINGLE was an EPIC MOVEMENT. This is when I stopped and Peeped her and was like—-THIS RIGHT here is a Moment. Everyone was swearing Beyonce’s brown barbie swag was on point…..but RIHANNA was outselling her by the Millions.
Yep, and even Beyoncé changed her Brown Barbie look look after Rihanna. Beyoncé started to try edgy during the I AM SASHA era. Lol

I think you should give credit where credit is due… in this case the credit belongs to Gaga
Nah, Gaga is definitely the one that put pressure on Beyoncé lol. The Barbie look worked and kept her and Rihanna separate. Oh but when Gaga started making mini movies with every visual and made it about art… the competitor in Beyoncé stood the f*** up! Hence, them collaborating and we’re still waiting on the one with Rihanna. Damn it?
No, it was definitely Rihanna that had beyonce shook and made her step her game up. Gaga was chasing them.

I speak facts
You have to work and use the computer and internet, and if you can do that and dedicate some time each day then you can do this with no problem.
I have been working with this for a month and have made over $2,000 already. let me know if you need more help.

Bey will never be as edgy as Rih because she is guarded. For example Bey’s thigh tattoo removal. When she removed that it was because she was too worried about her image. Her edge always came from being linked to Jay-z. Now without edge Bey is still a legend and that alone is edge enough to me. I always though my Michael Jackson’s style was not edgy in terms of urban edginess but his legendary status alone was all the edge anyone needs. Rihanna is at the phase where she is already an undercover legend and her next album should capitalize and solidify her as a legend to everyone. The rollout can’t be sloppy. It has to be tight so I’m glad she is taking her time with recording it.
Took chances? Laughs in Fefe Dobson.
This was the album that catapulted her from star to superstar!!! If Britney wasn’t going through what she was going through at the time I wonder how Rihanna career would have went, because umbrella was that song that did it for a lot of people & made people finally say ok Rihanna! I really can’t see Britney singing it & it is said that she was p*** at her team for rejecting it
Umbrella was written for Mary J. Blige not Britney Spears.
Umbrella was written for Britney she firm it down & than it was given to mary who turn it down
“Umbrella” is a song by Barbadian singer Rihanna from her third studio album Good Girl Gone Bad (2007). It features American rapper Jay-Z, who co-wrote the song with its producers Tricky Stewart and Kuk Harrell, with additional writing from The-Dream. The song was originally written with Britney Spears in mind, but her label rejected it. “Umbrella” is a pop and R&B song with hip hop and rock elements, referring to a romantic and platonic relationship and the strength of that relationship.
Google a real source and not fakeipedia please, it was written for Mary.
Girl I won’t go back n forward ”the dream” who wrote the song said he wrote it for Britney, you obviously Dont know what you are taking bout
Lord I remember these days. All of the hate and her 5 mins will be up and she can sing etc. remembered it clear as day.
And here she is today….A WHOLE ICON!
Lesson: Don’t give a F what a hater gatta day.
She skipped the Long Blonde Weave wave and Went to the Bad Girl side and it SOLD. FLAWLESS videos, songs and production.
Lmaoooo yup, that certain fanbase swearing she was only good for 15 minutes, and look at where we are now, Billboards 5th biggest selling female artist of ALL TIME, no blond weaves and no bedazzled onesies for Riri just her natural fierceness lmaooo???
She’s not the 5th biggest selling female artist of all time but go ahead & be great
Like Normani, Rihanna just always had this likable quality. It’s that factor you can’t buy. It’s supports the brand but lives outside of it. It’s the very thing that Tinashe lacks and is one of the main things things holding her back. Those interviews just make you want to hug Rihanna. Man..
Dont put normani in the same sentence with Rihanna.
Motivation is expected to debut at number 47, after all the free promo from celebrities, actors, rappers, etc
While seniorita is expected to hit number 1, giving Camila her second number 1.
Now who’s the legend in the making
boo….you didn’t get the memo SENORITA is a hit because it’s hot. CAMILA’s career is struggling — SHAWN is continues to be solid. CAMILA will NEVER be a LEGEND. she does not have the VOCALS. STYLE. SWAG needed….she’s………cute
“Camila’s career is struggling”
LOL
Billboard hot 100 number 1- Havana ( she was also a lead artist on the song)
Mtv vma video of the year-havana

About to score another number 1 with seniorita
Damn her career is really suffering. Beyonce cant even achieve any of these today.
this was the album that launched her https://youtu.be/oMp58oVociw
This is the era where Rihanna the superstar was born. From this point on she was a force to be reckoned with.
My favorite tour dvd is gggb!!! Love this era!! I’m breakin dishes dishes dishes!!
lmaoo yup this was the moment when Queen Riri was born. roach has been shook and trying to keep up ever since, even married a camel to be edgy lmfaooooo ? ?? ?
Rihanna is a very smart girl with a good ear. She knows which beats are hot, she know which song will be a hit this is something beyonce lacks. Beyonce doesnt have a good ear, she doesnt know a hot fresh beat when she hears it, a perfect example is her using that stale beat for run the world (girls).
Immediately she cut her hair and dyed it black everybody stopped comparing her to beyonce.
Damn Ciara is a flop
Chile when Rihanna was a trend setter and had an ear for hits…. Gone are days rated r is still my favourite era of hers.
