Rihanna Says Working On Album Helped Her Recovery
From MSNBC:
Rihanna has sold more than 12 million albums, and has had four No. 1 songs, but now her fame revolves mostly around one fight.
The singer hopes that will change on Nov. 16, when her first live performance since her Feb. 8 assault is streamed worldwide by Nokia mobile music. And when her album “Rated R” drops a week later, she believes fans will have insight into what transpired between her and ex-boyfriend Chris Brown in the wee hours of that morning.
“I can tell you that making this album was my recovery. It’s the way I vented and expressed myself,” a confident Rihanna said in our interview. “The minute I decided to leave the house again, I called up (Roc Nation A&R executive) Jay Brown and said ‘I want to do music, I want to go back in the studio,’ and we just did that. We started collecting songs and sounds and putting producers together, figuring out who we want to work with to develop new sounds.”

I wonder if she learned not to put her hands on a man? Rihanna isn’t a victim when it was she that initiated the violence. Women and others always make the statement, ” No real man would hit a women or you’re not a man if you hit a women”. I say that if a women stikes any one first she is no longer a women but an adversary, the acts following the strike are considered “mutal combat” from that point on and men need to learn these legal terms. I hope and pray that both parties refrain from the acts of violence, and that we teach or young women and men not to use physical, verbal or mental abuse on eachother and then turn these acts into publicity stories and stunts.
That’s a very beautiful woman. I know that has nothing to do with the article, but man!
