    An immediate sensation, filled with endless hits and fantastic music, birthing new styles and setting new trends as always. With stunning sweet ballads and catchy hip hop songs. The album is without a doubt infectious.

    Bold, catchy, and self assured Unapologetic is Rihanna's most open and vulnerable album. She lays her heart bear for all to see. She doesn't care what we think, she's simply allowing herself to be known. There's something so beautiful in certain she is in herself. she sings about how she's lived and lost and how she's not afraid to do it again, but you best believe it'll be on her terms.

    The now-24-year-old's voice may be simple, but it's distinctive--and as defiant as her album titles.

    Even when Unapologetic fails, it often does so in interesting ways.

    Sonically, the first half of Unapologetic picks up on the syrupy Southern hip-hop minimalism popular last summer, while much of the latter half is a grab bag of unwieldy balladry.
