early life

In early 1988, Robyn Rihanna Fenty was born in Saint Michael, Barbados. She grew up in the capital Bridgetown, together with two little brothers. Rihanna’s parents are an accountant and a warehouse worker, both of which have roots in Ireland and Guyana, among other places. When she was a teenager, Rihanna’s parents divorced after her father’s drug abuse and violence.

In her youth, the future artist took part in a military training program. She says she started singing after seeing Beyoncé Knowles perform on Destiny’s Child. Rihanna named Mariah Carey, Janet Jackson and Madonna as further role models. Driven by her big idols, Rihanna founded a girl group with her classmates in 2003.

At an audition for a producer, the youngster was separated from the group and asked to audition on her own. A demo CD was sent out and Rihanna got her first record deal. Two years later, the young woman released her debut album, the first hit “Unfaithful” in 2006.

Career

In 2007, Rihanna finally had her international breakthrough with the album “Good Girl Gone Bad”, which contained mega hits like “Umbrella” and “Don’t Stop The Music”. Only two years later she released the follow-up “Rated R”. This time, the young musician had developed the concept for the new album herself, she had contributed to the lyrics and the production and also earned the respect for it: “Rated R” was rated as more serious and serious and was a great success.

In the same year her new album “Loud” was released with well-known singles like “Only Girl” or “S&M”. This was followed by “Talk That Talk” in the coming year and the record-breaking album “Unapologetic” in 2012 with Rihanna’s huge hits like “Stay” and “Diamonds”.

Rihanna increasingly devoted herself to other projects: in 2013 she designed four fashion collections and her first cosmetics line. Today the young woman owns an entire cosmetics company and also a lingerie brand. She also made acting experiences in films like “Valerian” or “Ocean’s 8”. No wonder that Forbes included her in the list of the most influential people in the world.

After a longer break, Rihanna released her latest album “Anti” in 2016, with which she was able to build on the success of the other works. Marketing ran through 2015 through several released songs such as “FourFiveSeconds” with Kanye West and Paul McCartney, “Work” with Drake and “Bitch Better Have My Money”.
