“Rude Boy” is perhaps the best track off Rihanna‘s current effort Rated R. The fun song is infectious and the island feel is natural for Rihanna and her vocals. Here’s a fun performance of the song at the Echo Awards. The robots in it are interesting haha.

Her performance abilities keep on improving, good for her.

Seeing as I am actually from the Caribbean as well, I was definitely one of those who gave Rihanna a hard time for her lack of representation. However, she finally decided to tap into her island background with this one and give us something a little different and less ‘dark’. I love it. The colors, and the subtle dance moves are fiyyyah. Who knew she could slow wind.

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.
