Rihanna: Barbadian Superstardom

A green-eyed beauty with a sultry voice, Rihanna was discovered as a teenager on her island home of Barbados, and quickly signed with Def Jam records. Powered by a Soft Cell sample, her infectious dancehall/Caribbean single 'Pon de Replay', from her album the MUSIC OF THE SUN, became the summer jam of 2005, peaking at number two on the charts. By 2006 she had become a worldwide sensation and this informative release takes a look back at that incredible rise.
