5.0 out of 5 stars Rihanna's new CD is the first R and B CD that I was ever interested in purchasing. October 15, 2008

By Miriam Hope Brown

Format:Audio CD

Generally, one buys a CD and only likes to listen to one or two tracks. With Rihanna's CD "Good Girl Gone Bad" every track is different and , I think sets a new genre for music. It crosses over from R and B to light rock. A great deal of thought was put into the order of the tracks. The lyrics are full of meaning. It is a compilation of love songs, angst and confusion. I am 48 and an old rock n' roller. This CD is a crossover for me. I would highly recommend this CD.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bad Girl's gone Good November 24, 2008

By Just another Music/Web/Technology Lover

Format:MP3 Music

OK, the other two reviewers have a bone to pick with Amazon, Pepsi points and other things completely unrelated to Rihanna's music. If you like Rihanna, this is an excellent album. Not many to choose from yet, being a young artist. But, IMHO this is a better album than her first "Music of the Sun", which is not an insult of her debut either. I almost gave this 5 stars just to counter the crappy, unrealistic and unrelated reviews provided by the other two people here.... but I resisted. This really is a 4 star album, with solid music, vocals, and production. if you've heard of and like Rihanna, you'll like Good Girl Gone Bad.

4.0 out of 5 stars Song of the summer and a solid album. June 5, 2007

By A* VINE™ VOICE

Format:Audio CD

Rihanna has finally made a solid album, almost void of her nasal tick of notes and need to have herself above the sound mix. Now with the right production, hello -- echo effect in play during "Umbrella" (a song Mary J. Blige turned down, yeah, kick yourself hard for that one, girl). Rihanna has dropped the too-sweet Island sun music that she never quite American-ized to have a run away hit and is able to avoid working with Teairra Marie at the food court.

With the exception of the horrible slow jams that try to cater to her as if she had a strong voice, Rihanna does well with the sassy jams like "Lemme Get That" with its call to take every dime a man has on furniture instead of spending her own cash to do so ... why not have him buy the house too then? Even "Don't Stop the Music" which samples Michael Jackson's chant/call from "Wanna Be Startin' somethin'" is dipped in a little of reggae while still allowing her to cross over. It's nice to see her growing into her own, even though it is with massive help from studio production.

In the past, it seems as if she had been searching for an image, this sassy, sweet vibe suits her well. Even the film-noir album cover works. The only riff: when she fails, she fails hard! Slow jams just aren't her strong note, when its too much of a vocal push for her. Its like telling Ciara to go out there and belt -- not gonna happen. Rihanna has made an excellent summer album that'll stick on the charts for a long time or until Beyonce gets Jealous and tells her to sit down.
