As “Pon De Replay” (2005) has become a massive hit and soared to the 2nd rank of Billboard Hot 100, the future certainly looks bright for Rihanna. From an ordinary young girl with a simple life, she has really transformed into a new jewel of American music industry. With her extraordinary talent of singing and writing songs, it is just a matter of time before she rises as the new diva of R&B.
Born as Robyn Rihanna Fenty in 1988 in Barbados, Rihanna was like any other teenage girls of her age who attended high school and loved to sing for fun together with some friends. It all began to change drastically after she was introduced to Evan Rogers, a New York City music producer who is also the owner of Syndicated Rhythm Productions. Rogers and his Barbadian wife named Jackie happened to be in Barbados to spend their 2003 Christmas vacation near St. Michael, Rihanna's hometown. Getting impressed with her amazing voice, Rogers offered Rihanna to record some tracks in New York by spring.
Together with Rogers and his partner, Carl Sturken, Rihanna composed almost a dozen songs, taking inspiration from dancehall and ragamuffin which are the musical cultureof her origin and blended them with R&B tunes. “My music is mostly Caribbean beats mixed with R&B,” she described eagerly. “I don't want to be pigeon holed into being just a dance artist because I can sing too. I have ballads on the album as well as upbeat tracks.”
Looking for a label, Rihanna landed her feet at Def Jam Recordings in which Shawn Carter or popularly known as Jay-Z has become the president as well as its CEO. Upon witnessing her performance, the acclaimed rapper quickly offered her a recording contract on the spot. She afterwards set out to collect materials for her debut album, co-writing most of its tracks. Meanwhile, “Pon De Replay” eventually was released on May 25, 2005. The single turned out to be a great piece of music as it was labeled one of the summer's hottest jams in U.S.
Achieving success with “Pon De Replay,” Rihanna put her hopes to repeat the same attainment on her first album “Music of the Sun” which was scheduled to be launched on August 30, 2005. With tracks featuring both Elephant Man and Vybz Kartel, it would surely provide some serious heat to burn either radio stations or clubs throughout the country. Looking upon these, it was truly like a dream came true for this enchanting performer. “If I hadn't met Evan and Carl I might have just been dreaming forever. I am so thankful for everything they've done for me,” she said gratefully.

R&B/pop singer Rihanna was born in Saint Michael, Barbados on February 20, 1988, and got her big break in 2003 when she was introduced to record producer Evan Rogers. At the time, young Rihanna was part of a musical trio, but Rogers was only interested in her talents as a solo artist. Looking to further her career, the singer flew to Connecticut to live with Rogers and record her demo, which was quickly picked up by her future label, Def Jam. Albums including 2005's Music of the Sun and 2006's A Girl Like Me topped the charts, but 2007's Good Girl Gone Bad rocketed her to fame with the release of massive hits like "Umbrella" and "Don't Stop the Music." In February 2009, an altercation with then-boyfriend Chris Brown left her in a hospital with several injuries. Although Brown was arrested and charged with assault, Rihanna remains tight-lipped about the incident, which occurred the night of the 2009 Grammy Awards. Court proceedings continue to take place in summer 2009. The singer appeared in court in June 2009 with Brown, though she did not testify
