Rap-Up.com || New Music: Rihanna – ‘A Child Is Born’

Rihanna adds some Caribbean flavor to her version of the Christmas standard “A Child Is Born,” included on the compilation Now That’s What I Call Christmas, Vol. 4, in stores today. Singing over an island-infused instrumental, the redhead goes au naturale on this seasonal jam. Celebrate the holidays a bit early this year by listening to the optimistic tune below.

The ONLY reason I’m living right now is because this gives me a blast from the “Music Of The Sun” past (With the addition of her better vocals.)

Overall, I enjoy the song. Rihanna, bring back at least SOME of your carribean roots to your music again. This made me miss it.

this crap is dry as hell, and i’m usually the person who is for rihanna’s island-ish songs. She had to do her version of 1 of the wackest x-mas songs -_-
