Just four years ago, Rihanna was a 15 year old young girl living in the beautiful Barbados parish of Saint Michael. Performing in her musical trio with her two classmates. Her first connection to the music industry came when she met a vacationing music producer named Evan Rogers from New York City. After an impromptu performance for Evan, he was absolutely certain she would one day make history. Soon after, Evan and Rihanna traveled to the Big Apple in search of a record deal. It took just one meeting with Jay-Z for Rihanna to score her big break. Jay, who had just recently been appointed the President of Def Jam Records, was so taken by the young singer's arresting natural talent that he signed her to the legendary label on the spot.
With two successful albums under her belt in just two years, Rihanna dropped her third and most critically acclaimed LP, Good Girl Gone Bad in 2007. The album's first single, "Umbrella," was the undisputed number one pop song of the summer and dominated the pop, urban and crossover charts for eight weeks in the U.S. "Umbrella" was also the #1 single on the UK singles chart for eleven consecutive weeks and went on to win "Video of the Year" and "Monster Single of the Year" at the 2007 MTV Video Music Awards.
After making an enormous impact on both the music and fashion worlds, Rihanna decided it was time to give back to the community that had given her such tremendous support from the beginning. In 2006, she created the non-profit organization, Believe, which is dedicated to providing medical services, school supplies and toys for children in need.
Rihanna's hunger for success and dedication to her passion has created space amongst the industries elite. This young and strong women will not let anyone get in the way of her pursuit. With all of the current issues she is facing, we hope her the best and pray she makes good choices as she pursues her future success within her passion.
