Rihanna

Rihanna, born February 20, 1988 in Saint Michael, Barbados. Her real name is Robyn Rihanna Fenty. Rihanna is a pop singer with influences from hip-hop, R & B, dance and soca. Rihanna is a multiple Grammy Award winner. Her four published albums until 2009, have sold more than 20 million copies and the accompanying single releases over 60 million times in her five-year career.

Rihanna joined in 2006 the Believe Foundation, a charity organization helping children who suffer from cancer. Since 2007, she tried to find a bone marrow donor for a five-year-old girl, named Jasmine Amena. Rihanna often visited Jasmina in the hospital, she last visited in November 2009 at a signing session for her album "Rated R". Jasmina died on January 27 2010.Even during her "The Good Girl Gone Bad" Tour, Rihanna went to the charity tour of the Believe Foundation. Also during this tour, she went to "A Girl's Night Out" Tour (2008), promoting a tour of three appearances for the fashion house Escada to the Moon Sparkle fragrance. The proceeds were donated to the Believe Foundation.

On July 7 2007, Rihanna, performed on the Live Earth concerts in the Japanese city of Chiba.

In 2008 she took part in the charity "Stand Up to Cancer" Project, and sang with many other singers, the charity song "Just Stand Up!".

Since 2008, Rihanna supported with the Believe Foundation and DKMS, which could contribute significantly in 2009 to save the life of 41-year-old mother Lisa Gershowitz Flynn. Rihanna was calling to register with DKMS, after which 5,000 new donors signed up, and 2000 potential new donors could be found, Lisa's life was saved.

Since the death of little Jasmina, Rihanna promotes increased for DKMS to encourage more people to be registered. After the earthquake in Haiti in January 2010, Rihanna followed the charity "Hope for Haiti Now" and was a accompanying fundraiser, among many other stars like Christina Aguilera, Beyonce Knowles and Shakira, Bono, Jay-Z and The Edge. They sang together the song "Stranded (Haiti Mon Amour). She also sang in the Oprah Winfrey show, a cover of "Redemption Songs" by Bob Marley. The proceeds also went to Hope for Haiti Now.

Loud Loud  (2010) 
CD
With DVD; Deluxe Edition
MP3
Loud, Rihanna's fifth studio album, is a significant change of pace from 2009's platinum Rated R. While much of Rated R was a cathartic and dark, Loud is relatively lighthearted and geared for dancefloors. It's led by the sleek, euphoric, ...
Rated R: Remixed Rated R: Remixed  (2009) 
CD
MP3
"Russian Roulette," released weeks prior to Rated R, just hinted at Rihanna's sudden desire to provoke. Even with the realization that it is metaphorical, the song startles with its hesitant gasps, spinning cylinders, and verses that are glacially paced, where ...

Girl Like Me Girl Like Me  (2006)

Rihanna's "Pon the Replay" was the jam of summer 2005, and with good reason: its Caribbean-flavored rhythms and infectious, singalong chorus made it nearly irresistible. The Barbados-born singer's full-length, MUSIC OF THE SUN, performed well on the strength of the ...
