Vinyl Record Rihanna – Loud [2LP]

Rihanna, one of the most successful pop artists of our time, returns to a brighter, more danceable and life-affirming sound after the darker Rated R on her fifth studio album Loud. Released in November 2010, the album marks a new stage in her career - frank, emotional and commercially astute. During the recording, which took place in parallel with the tour and filming of the movie Battleship, Rihanna collaborated with leading producers (Stargate, Tricky Stewart, Alex da Kid) and star performers, including Drake, Nicki Minaj and Eminem.

Loud is dominated by the aesthetics of pop and R&B music, but the record is notable for its genre richness. The dance hits “Only Girl (In the World)”, “S&M” and “What's My Name?” became international chart leaders, and the soulful ballad “California King Bed” demonstrates the singer's vulnerable vocals. The reggae number “Man Down” introduces Caribbean motifs, and the follow-up to the hit “Love the Way You Lie (Part II)” adds emotional depth with Eminem's participation. All the tracks are united by a sense of personal freedom and powerful female power - the main themes of the album. Loud received both enthusiastic and reserved reviews from critics, but its success was undeniable: more than 8 million copies sold worldwide, 3 No. 1 hits in the US and a Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording. The album became a bright milestone in Rihanna's career, which strengthened her status as a global superstar.
