Album Description:
Multi-platinum, award-winning SRP/Def Jam recording artist -and CoverGirl spokesperson - Rihanna has taken over the charts with her # 1 smash single "Umbrella" (featuring JAY-Z) and her chart topping album GOOD GIRL GONE BAD. Rihanna's third album release in less than two years, GOOD GIRL GONE BAD is the follow-up to 2006's platinum A Girl Like Me, with the back-to-back #1 hits, "S.O.S." and "Unfaithful"; and her gold debut from 2005, Music Of the Sun, featuring the worldwide smash, "Pon De Replay." GOOD GIRL GONE BAD boasts the production skills of Timabland, C. "Tricky" Stewart, Stargate, and the team of Evan Rogers and Carl Sturken (responsible for "S.O.S." and "Pon De Replay"), as well as songwriting contributions from Justin Timberlake and Ne-Yo, among others.

Amazon.com:
There's a cool new development in summer singles: they no longer need to be sunny. In fact, the wetter the better. "Umbrella," the first single off Rihanna's ragingly good third album, may be her strongest ditty yet, and that's saying something considering her run of past summer chartbusters. More stylish than "S.O.S." (from A Girl Like Me) and more interesting than "Pon de Replay" (from Music of the Sun), "Umbrella" barrels forward with big, brawny drums and a hot but haunted-sounding vocal. From there, the upbeat numbers chug forth like chilled pina colada mix into a blender: "Breakin' Dishes" trades skillfully on a recent vogue for man-directed venom, and "Shut Up and Drive" borrows "S.O.S."-style from the '80s New Order song "Blue Monday." Both are irresistible. So, too, are a couple of late tracks. "Rehab" and "Lemme Get That," both produced by Timbaland, prove that being an island girl is no barrier to holding one's own amid a sizzling stew of urban beats. In fact, it's a boon--one that'll register with pop music fans instantly. -Tammy La Gorce

- "Good Girl Gone Bad" by Rihanna
The album is very good, but I must commend Amazon for their promptness in delivering the record to me. They made it so easy to order the record, and I was pleasantly surprised at the quickness that it arrived at my door. I have ordered vinyl albums from several internet sites, since my area no longer carries them, and Amazon has been the best so far. I wish others could follow your example of quick delivery and simple method of ordering. I hope to do more ordering of vinyl LPs from Amazon in the ... Read More

- She May be Bad, but at Least Her Music is Good
You know who Rihanna is. You've heard "Umbrella" on the radio about a hundred times now. Even octogenarians, through their careful reading of People, know who Rihanna is. So I'll cut straight to the point. Good Girl Gone Bad is an excellent album. It's solid, danceable, non-bubblegum pop. Why shouldn't you buy it?

Well, it costs about fifteen bucks. If you'd rather spend your hard-earned greenbacks on M.I.A's Kala or Arcade Fire's Neon Bible, that's understandable.
Or, if you're ... Read More
