Rihanna’s Loud!

Article by Carol Martindale

Rihanna’s new album cover is out and it’s Loud!!!
Her face and new bright red hairdo graces the album cover, and is matched with her bold rouge-painted lips and controversial “Rebelle Fleur” tattoo.
The album is set to be released in the United States on November 15.
In an interview recently with American Idol host Ryan Seacrest, in reference to Loud, she said she “didn’t want to go backward and remake Good Girl Gone Bad. I wanted the next step in the evolution of Rihanna, and it’s perfect for us”.
Loud is her fifth album in five years, starting with Music Of The Sun, followed by A Girl Like Me, Good Girl Gone Bad and Rated R.
Rihanna has achieved seven No. 1 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 since first appearing on the chart in June 2005 – the most by any artiste during that time span.
The Barbados cultural ambassador has also sold over five million album units in the US, and won three Grammy Awards for Umbrella and Run This Town. (PR)
