Album Review: Rihanna Rated R


So I'm going to start this review off with the cover of her next single "Hard" feat. Jeezy. She really doesn't mind showing off the assets anymore. This album drops November 23rd but I got an advanced copy lol.

Mad House
nice intro into the album. Not a lot of lyrics or anything special but it does it's job of setting the tone for the coherent album.

Wait Yo Turn
Well, she is such a fucking lady and she lets you know. This song goes hard and it sounds really good blasted through some speakers. Not to mention it was very artist and entertaining video released for this single.

Hard
Rihanna's version of the song "Diva" and I will admit it is nicely written and the beat goes hard. I can see rappers going in on this beat and I am really feeling her shit talking on this song. Jeezy was nice addition to this song also

Stupid In Love
Thank Ne-Yo for another hit..mid-temp, finger snapping song about being a fool in love and ending up feeling stupid in a relationship that was bad to start with.."My new nickname is You Idiot"

Rockstar 101
Slash on the guitar. She is in full swag blast on this song; talking about the clothes she is wearing, middle finger up in the air, bright lights, big cities, and all that is missing is a black guitar

Russian Roulette
Anybody that won't admit this is a hit must really be a Chris Brown fan..Top 10 on the Billboard's Chart

Fire Bomb
Yeah found this song to be well garbage. This is a very heavy rock theme and heavy car references in it. Should have been left off the album in my opinion.

Rude Boy
These is back to the Pon da Replay/Umbrella Rihanna people grew to love. She is single and looking for a man that can put it on her right. Different vocal tone on the first verse and this song is actually a little grown lol. Like I said...she is such a fucking lady.

Photographs
Defintion of a Will.I.AM. collab. Song about young love and Will.I.Am provides a small male perspective

G4L
The title stands for Gangsta 4 Life and this song is actually kind of funny. It is very dramatic about having guns in the air and she actually says nigga lol...But I love it

Te Amo
Very cheesy song...doesn't fit the feel for the album but I can see why it was put on there. Very safe

Cold Case Love
Very big F U song to Chris Brown. She is extremely mad on this song but it is also extremely to long

The Last Song
Ummm........horrible way to end the album

Overall this was a very good cd and I can see the awards coming in as soon as it drops..Good thing Beyonce is done for awhile because Rihanna is back..I do suggest buying it..I give it a 4/5
