About Rihanna

As the ongoing "Rihanna: UNLOCKED" campaign gathers momentum around the world, Island Def Jam's reigning queen of the Billboard Hot 100 earns a second week at No. 1 with "We Found Love" (featuring Calvin Harris). The excitement is building up to the release of "Talk That Talk," Rihanna's upcoming sixth Island Def Jam studio album, arriving Monday, Nov. 21.

"Talk That Talk" is the eagerly anticipated follow-up to "Loud" (released Nov. 2010), an industry phenomenon that went multi-platinum worldwide, with global sales of nearly eight million albums sold. "Loud's" release one year ago registered over 200,000 first week sales, the biggest Soundscan week of Rihanna's recording career. From the album, "Only Girl (In the World),"

"What's My Name" (featuring Drake), and "S&M" became Rihanna's eighth, ninth and 10th No. 1 hits, respectively; the album also contained the Top 10 "Cheers (Drink To That)." Prior to "Loud," Rihanna struck RIAA platinum with "Rated R" (Nov. 2009), containing the No. 1 hit "Rude Boy." Rihanna became the first female artist of the decade to chart six No. 1's on the Hot 100 when "Rude Boy" went to the top spot. "Rated R" also contained the Top 10 hits "Russian Roulette" and "Hard" (featuring Jeezy).

Rihanna's chart career began with her RIAA gold debut from 2005, "Music of the Sun," featuring the worldwide smash, "Pon De Replay." She graduated to RIAA platinum with her second album, 2006's "A Girl Like Me," which contained the back-to-back hits, "S.O.S." (her first No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100), "Unfaithful" and "Break It Off" (featuring Sean Paul). Rihanna went on to double-platinum with "Good Girl Gone Bad" (May 2007), containing the Grammy-winning global No. 1 hit "Umbrella" (featuring Jay-Z), then "Shut Up and Drive," "Hate That I Love You" (featuring Ne-Yo) and "Don't Stop the Music." The CD+DVD package "Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded" (Jan. 2009) continued the hits with the No. 1 "Take A Bow" and the No. 1 "Disturbia." Rihanna's track record also includes No. 1 hits with T.I. ("Live Your Life" in 2008) and Eminem ("Love the Way You Lie" in 2010, named Top Rap Song Of the Year at the Billboard Music Awards); and the No. 1 Rap, No. 2 Hot 100 and No. 3 R&B sensation of 2009, "Run This Town" with Jay-Z & Kanye West.
