Illy pointed out this youtube montage of snippets from Rihanna’s upcoming Rated R album. It sounds like that poppy-bedroom-mirror-dancing music that I love at certain parts of the month : )
Meanwhile, Elliott/RR heard the whole album and posted a funny in-depth list of his song by song reactions…

“The Last Song”
I can’t stand this clunker. “Time to turn off the last song,” she keeps repeating. And I wish I coulda done just that. More wailing guitars. A bad ending to a good album.”

LOL! Well, “Last Song” seems ok from this snippet, but I was already fast-fowarding “Rude Boy ” and the snippet was only 10 seconds long. Love “Photographs” though.
