For more than a year, Rihanna and her label Roc Nation have been hunting for beats as they work to complete an album devoted to exploring the singer?s Caribbean roots, according to conversations with eight sources close to the project. In addition, two of those sources suggest that the singer is simultaneously at work on another pop-oriented album.
Rihanna first mentioned the possibility of releasing a reggae-centric album publicly during a Vogue profile in May, but her and her potential collaborators have been quiet ever since. The magazine suggested that Supa Dups, the veteran dancehall producer behind recent hits like Drake?s ?Controlla,? was ?one influence? on the album, though other details were scarce. (While Supa Dups did not respond to email requests for comment, two other sources with knowledge of Rihanna?s album confirmed the producer?s involvement.)
Along with Supa Dups, most of the biggest producers and singers connected to dancehall and reggae have submitted material for the album, including producer-writer duo R. City (Rihanna, Beyonc?), Stephen ?Di Genius? McGregor (Vybz Kartel, Sean Paul), Linton ?TJ Records? White (Serani, Vybz Kartel), producer-singer Ricky Blaze (Gyptian), Tyshane ?Beam? Thompson (Yo Gotti, Lecrae), dancehall singer Kranium and reggae singer Chronixx. (The manager of Kranium and Chronixx declined to comment on his artists? involvement.) According to one producer with knowledge of the album?s process, the mainstream Top 40 machine has been represented at some Rihanna sessions by superstar electronic producer Skrillex and Boi-1da (Drake, Beyonc? and Jay-Z).
A dancehall- and reggae-inflected album is not entirely out of left field for Rihanna. She has explored these sounds on 2010?s ?Man Down? and 2011?s ?You Da One,? while 2016?s Anti was boosted by the smash dancehall single ?Work.? PARTYNEXTDOOR, a singer-songwriter of Jamaican descent who co-wrote ?Work,? told Rolling Stone in 2016 that the song was not initially supposed to channel dancehall. ?It was supposed to be a pop beat,? he said. ?It turned into a reggae beat because I sang in patois.? But because Rihanna is from Barbados, ?culturally, she got it right away,? he added.
If ?Work? was a happy accident, this time around, Rihanna and her team are consciously trying to create a dancehall-influenced album. The singer has already corralled a large number of demos from top-tier Jamaican talent, often enlisting producers that have a track record of creating songs that can penetrate the American market ? Blaze, for example, produced Gyptian?s 2010 hit ?Hold Yuh,? while White crafted Vybz Kartel?s ?Fever,? which enjoyed a crossover trajectory last summer.
It?s common for stars at Rihanna?s level to cull the best demos from reams of submissions when selecting songs for albums. ?[Rihanna?s team] have, no lie, 500 records for this project [from] different producers and writers,? explains one dancehall producer who asked to remain anonymous. ?They?re only choosing 10 records. They?ve been having writing camps and trying to keep them quiet for almost a year and a half now. I?ve been flying to Miami, flying to L.A., cutting records nonstop for this project.?
Im not reading that but yay
This sounds major, not Kranium, Gyptian & Vybz
I hope it's good.
Queen is a musical genius and I love her
Ready for this album
So I wonder if it?s a dual tea or two literal separate projects
Having double the Rih at once though omfff :gorlonfire:

ANTI is this girls best album. Take out your personal feelings girls.
?Kiss it Better? alone >
She?s come a long way. RR sounds dated as fuck.
Rated R and Anti are almost equal for me but RR is just more cohesive.

I agree with Rated R, but everything after that (minus ANTI) definitely sounded like records that were cut and passed along to Rihanna. Though cute, they definitely didn?t feel as personal or creative. Just material to satisfy mainstream audience.

No. Rih ditched Ester a long time ago and she needs to continue to do so. After Rude Boy and Whats My name became hits and Ester started giving those similar melodies and island sound to artists like Nicole Scherzingberger (Right There, Wet) and Selena Comez (Come & Get It), just to name a couple, she was done. Last thing I recall she did was Fifth Harmony's He Like That with the Jamaican vibe as well. Fuck that shit. And no Stargate productions either. Major Lazer, sure.
If Rihanna gon do this, she needs to link up with the true yardies from Jamaica to give that authentic sound. Not some watered down, pop infused, island sounding mess that the girls been trying to give. The Jamaican artists and producers from my country are more capable of producing MUCH better songs than hip hop and r&b producers. And based on this article, she's on the right track.

She needs to sample some legendary dancehall artists
Super Cat, Buju Banton, Tanya Stephens, Red Rat :flamebroiled:
BIT :flamebroiled:
Yesssssssssssssss!!!!
And remix a Bob Marley tune like Lauryn did with Turn Ur Lights Down Low. Maybe do a song like Mya and Beenie's Girls Dem Sugar. A couple song like No Love Allowed and Watch N Learn...whew! If she does this shit right, she could make my fave Rih album.

Beyonce could never. And fuck her. She likes to bite off the Jamaican sound but never truly work with them outside the studio. Sean Paul will never perform Baby Boy with her ever again.

That's why she needs to do it. Most of her 1s Queen wrote them.
No. Rih ditched Ester a long time ago and she needs to continue to do so. After Rude Boy and Whats My name became hits and Ester started giving those similar melodies and island sound to artists like Nicole Scherzingberger (Right There, Wet) and Selena Comez (Come & Get It),
well, Come & Get It was written for Rihanna but she didn't want it
So what are you even talking about

She doesn?t work with like anyone in the studio but I?m sure Bey is hurt that Sean will never join her on stage. :-(

Thats my point. The sound was getting tired by then, partially due to every chick tryna tap into that vibe. That's why she turned it down. :uhh:

Right all those songs mentioned was written for Rihanna. Ester, The Dream, Party and whoever wrote BBHMM needs to be perched. She can have those reggae producers too but she's a pop artist. She'll flop just like the last album stepping out.

She?s making 2 albums guys and the dancehall one is only 10 songs
Let the Bajan bitch make her a damn dancehall album :plzstop:

And f @ jungle noise when reggaeton gives exactly that, a bunch of yelling in Spanish over a busy ass beat
