Rihanna Rihport: The Year in Rihview 2016
EntertainmentRihanna is the most important millennial of our time. The Rihanna Rihport is where we chronicle the magnitude of her lived existence.
Rihanna, December 29—In a cold and contentious year, the single consistent force that could unite a country divided was a 28-year-old Bajan genius known as RIHANNA YAAAAAAALL!!!! Yes, 2016 may have been a disaster in virtually every other way, but it’s time for us to put aside our dour and very real terror for the future and recognize for a minute what a beautiful year it was for our queen, our one true savior, the driving force behind our ability to go on and beautiful beacon of light and glory, Ms. Robyn Rihanna FENTY! Pop star, fashion designer, shoe designer (for TWO! companies), sock designer and ICON!
January 2016
Navy will agree that New Year’s was supposedly the beginning of the new year but the true day the new year started was on January 27 because that is when “Work” was released, and then when it really started was later on January 28 because that is when a Tidal employee messed up and accidentally released all of Anti! Uh oh, but also THANK YOU, you angel at Tidal, because you gifted us all unto the world!!! RIHANNA!
Where were you when Anti dropped?!?! My friends I cannot tell a lie, I was inside my office and listening to it on bad headphones! But it didn’t matter because the experience of hearing the golden voice of our queen transported me to a different time and place, as wonderfully as being in the womb. LO!
