Rihanna : Good Girl Gone Bad
Ecouter Album : Rihanna : Good Girl Gone Bad Mp3
After working with him on her 2006 album A Girl Like Me (2006), Rihanna spent the week of the 2007 Grammy Awards with singer-songwriter Ne-Yo writing songs for Good Girl Gone Bad in February 2007. She also received vocal lessons from him while recording most of the album in Los Angeles.[3] Despite having previously worked with him, she teamed up with him again and wrote the duet « Hate That I Love You ». Rihanna commented: « I read through the lyrics, and I’m like, ‘What are you thinking? What is going through your head?’ » Rihanna recalled. « I just have to stop sometimes and be like, ‘Ne-Yo, OK, tell me why you wrote this song.’ Because I don’t understand how he comes up with certain concepts and he just blows me away sometimes. He’s just insane. »[3] He also wrote two other songs on the album and the first single from the re-release, « Take a Bow ».[4] The album’s lead single, « Umbrella », was written by The-Dream. The song was originally written with American pop singer Britney Spears in mind, but her label rejected the song and instead offered it to American R&B singer Mary J. Blige before giving it to Rihanna.
