As of 2009 Rihanna has overcome a painful relationship experience that was exploited by the media, been nominated for two grammys, made herself an icon in the fashion world, and released her fourth Album, Rated R which critics are already loving and predicting will largely help her career. Need I say, she has accomplished all of this while dressed like a perfectly groomed iconic bad-ass.
This style of Rihanna's is apparent in the video for her third single off of Rated R, "Hard", which she just shot. Rihanna calls the style, "couture military" as everything in the video is surrounded by the idea of something military. It's not certain if the military theme is recurring in her song lyrics, but she surely portrays her tough military like skin in the song, as well as in the other songs off the album which are all rawer, deeper and darker than before. The album is surely a portrayal of how Rihanna has grown as a woman in the past year, and how the dangers of passion will make you realize a lot about yourself. Not to mention, her vocal range is deserving of all the attention she has been receiving this fall.
