Good girl gone bad was good but it doesn&#039;t compare to Rated R. This album is so diverse and she is less of a vulnerable girl and more of and empowered woman. She experiments with rock sounds such as fire bomb and last song which are my favorite songs and it suits her voice she should do more of that. The Caribbean sounds like rude boy and te amo she needs more of because being a Caribbean person she inspires me and I would love to hear more of. And the r&amp;b sounds from the songs Russian Roulette and cold case love which she handles very well. As far as performance of the almbum it&#039;s already platinum after only being released in November so that&#039;s an impressive feat. And I&#039;m glad that people aren&#039;t seeing her as another Beyoncé or Alicia keys when it comes to this album. But for those who don&#039;t know about Rihanna even if you haven&#039;t heard umbrella you should give this album a chance because it definitely shows artistic progression and empowerment.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I don&#8217;t know about anyone else but I see this as Rihanna&#8217;s best work yet.

I went to the store to purchase &quot;The Fame Monster&quot; and was surprised to see &quot;Rated R&quot;.  I had no idea that Rihanna&#039;s newest CD had come out.  Well, considering the fact that I&#039;ve always been a Rihanna fan, I decided to go ahead and pick it up too.  I am SOOOO glad I did.  While, I&#039;m really enjoying Gaga&#039;s CD, I am madly in love with Rihanna&#039;s.  Is it packed with Top 40 hits like GGGB?  No, as a matter of fact, I can&#039;t really see any of the songs being giant hits.  However, this CD is so much more than that.  It&#039;s real, it&#039;s dark, and it&#039;s fantastic.  Viva la Rihanna.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So&#8230; I went to the store to purchase &#8220;The Fame Monster&#8221; and was surprised to see &#8220;Rated R&#8221;.
