Things R "Rated R"

So Nov. 23rd last week Monday, was the release of diva Rihanna's new album Rated R. Now so folks think the whole album is about chris brown, but NOT! Rihanna has come a long way, especially vocally. She did her thing on Russian Roulette and showed everyone that she is back. She came with a follow up Wait your Turn And really made people think with this album, she gives the oppotunity to question and think beyond the lyrics and beat. The beauty of album, is she came with a could be club bangers and few ballads that u could just groove to on your own. Coming off a difficult year, shes accompanied by some popular favorites. Young Jeezy, Justin Timberlake, Will I Am and legendary guitarist Slash. Granted there are some songs like Fire Bomb or parts of songs that shine some light on the event of this past February, but i think it adds to the album. She has a fair balance, some songs that show her pain and how she feels, and other that show her moving on and empowering herslef as a young woman. G4L another good song from the ablum is that get females ready to band together against anyone who disrespects. But then songs like Cold Case Love just turns the mood around a lil bit. And even with the competition of Lady GaGa and queen B Beyonce, she really put in some work and came out with a bangin album.

Now i happen to be a big fan of Rihanna, so all the negativity surrounding her, I think is really un-called for. I personally don't think anyone ask to get a beat down. At least she's coming with something, and not trying to play the victim. Dont get me wrong I am still a fan of Chris Brown, I think his joint with Lil Wayne, is fire, and he's on his way back with some crazy sh*t so...
