Initially, I wasn’t a huge fan of Rihanna‘s album, Rated R. Perhaps, it was my bias over the situation, but after giving it another chance when things cooled down I’ve come to accept the fact that it actually is a solid effort.

Rihanna brings back that island girl feel we were introduced to her with in the latest single “Rude Boy“. Here’s a look at some video stills from the shoot.

Although the second picture gives me “Kitty Kat” by Beyonce, I’m digging the shots (minus the wig in the last one). I can’t wait to see how it ends up. Visually, Rihanna’s people always give us gold.
