Good Girl Gone Bad

Rihanna is hot. Having a killer Barbados body also helps. I remember watching her with Jay-Z when he came to MuchMusic. Her first video, "Pon De Replay", was a bit weak though. So I didn't pay too much attentiont o her. Then again, if Jay-Z saw something in her to recruit her directly, there must be something about her.

Now her third album is coming up called "Good Girl Gone Bad", set for release on June 5, 2007. She is smart to partner with one of the hottest writer, Ne-yo, for the album. The list of producers for the album is pretty big with names like Timabaland, Will.I.Am, Cee-Lo (from Gnarls Barkley), Stargate (Irreplacable, Sexy Love) and Sean Garnett (Yeah!, Goodies, Run It). The first single called "Umbrella" features her boss, Jay-Z, is already starting to gain popularity

Just a few days ago, a second song from the album was on the internet, this time featuring Ne-yo in "Hate That I Love You". This could potentially be the second single that will for sure be playing all summer long. The songs are below, I've also included "Just Be Happy", written (once again) by Ne-yo, which was a song for the Clinique fragrance Happy. The other song is "Winning Women" with Nicole from the PCD for.......female's Secret Deodorant. (Wow, even deodorants have their own song now)
