Rihanna gets ‘Loud’ with new disc, returns to dance roots on album’s first single
Although we can’t necessarily say Rihanna is back, since she didn't go anywhere — she is making a comeback of sorts.
The self-proclaimed "good girl gone bad" is back to her dance roots on her new single, “Only Girl (In the World),” which she debuted Tuesday on Ryan Seacrest's morning radio show.
After taking a more macabre approach to her fourth disc, “Rated R,” she's gone in a decidedly more “sassy, fun, flirty [and] energetic” direction on her fifth disc, “Loud.”
“Get loud, everybody. Get crazy. Get excited. 'Cause I'm pumped. I'm just gonna be me,” she told fansite RihannaDaily.com during a live chat.
“I’m done recording the whole album … I made sure not to let you down with my music! You guys are always defending me, so now you've got some great songs to justify it. I didn't want to go backward and remake [2007's] ‘Good Girl Gone Bad.’ I wanted the next step in the evolution of Rihanna, and it's perfect for us.”
The single was produced by Stargate, the same Grammy-winning producing team responsible for some of her biggest hits, including “Rude Boy,” “Unfaithful,” “Hate That I Love You” and the dance anthem “Please Don't Stop the Music.”
With its club ready bassline and Euro-pop influences, not to mention one heck of an epic chorus, the track is a surefire hit. “Want you to make me feel, like I'm the only girl in the world,” she sings. “Like I’m the only one that you'll ever love, like I'm the only one who knows your heart.”
“Loud” is slated to hit stores in November. Take a listen to the track here and tell us what you think below.

Rihanna’s New Single “Only Girl (In The World)” Coming Next Week
As noted last week, Rihanna’s not-yet-titled fifth LP is due out by year’s end. Now Ryan Seacrest has announced that the first single, “Only Girl (In The World),” will premiere on September 7 on his official site. “An iTunes arrival date and album release date are yet to be confirmed,” says the American Idol host. “But word within the music community is that ‘Only Girl’ is an undeniable smash hit.” The track is produced by Stargate, so finger’s crossed it’s another “Rude Boy”-sized jam.

Rihanna’s A Good Girl Gone Wax
Here’s a peep at Rihanna’s wax figure for Madame Tussauds in Washington D.C.. Starting today, the statue of the Rated R singer will be displayed alongside the likes Madonna, the Jonas Brothers and even Barack Obama. Though it bears an amazing likeness to the Barbados pop star, we couldn’t help but notice that RiRi’s signature tattoos are missing from her wax clone—though to be fair Rihanna gets inked so often there’s no way the museum could possibly keep up. Jump below to see the full-length recreation of the “Love The Way You Lie” songstress in all her waxy glory. [Buzzworthy]

Taylor Momsen Covers The xx And Rihanna AT THE SAME TIME
Courtney Love already hates her, so Gossip Girl’s Carrie Wright Taylor Momsen probably didn’t think twice about dissing Rihanna in Spin a few weeks back. “People think pop is rock, and the lines are getting blurred,” she said. “Now Rihanna’s wearing fucking leather jackets, and it’s really annoying.”
Whoops.

Eminem And Rihanna Get Childish In “Love The Way You Lie” Parody
Internet jokesters Key Of Awesome spoofed the videos of Adam Lambert, Ke$ha, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry and any other giant pop act brave enough to make a music video today. While we’re waiting for them to top this brilliant frat boy send-up of Kanye West’s “Power”, we have their parody of Eminem and Rihanna’s dramatic clip for “Love The Way You Lie”. They take Em and RiRi’s message about domestic abuse and transfer it to the playground. Catch “Love The Way You Like” below!
“Love The Way You Like” (”Love The Way You Lie” parody)
The best line is the play on Eminem’s laughable “window pane/pain” metaphor: “I’m so bored by these games that we’re playing, I guess that’s why they call them bored games.” Well done, kids.
