Rihanna

Born in Saint Michael, Barbados, Rihanna is a global icon known for her significant contributions to the music industry. Her full name Robyn Rihanna Fenty conveys her Caribbean heritage and she has often incorporated elements of this into her work. She was discovered by Evan Rogers, an American record producer who happened to be vacationing on the island and quickly recognized her talent. Rihanna's debut album Music of the Sun was released under Def Jam Recordings after she moved to New York City. The album showcased a blend of reggae, R&B and pop influences that were indicative of Rihanna's diverse musical taste. It peaked at number ten on the Billboard 200 chart, paving the way for further success with albums like A Girl Like Me and Good Girl Gone Bad, which included Grammy-winning single "Umbrella". Over time, she became renowned for continually reinventing her style and sound. In addition to music, Rihanna has been involved in various business ventures including fashion and cosmetics industries. She launched Fenty Beauty line which received widespread acclaim for its inclusivity promoting a broad array of shades suitable for different skin tones. Furthermore, she debuted her Savage X Fenty lingerie line, aimed at promoting body positivity among consumers. Her entrepreneurial efforts have been lauded as much as her artistic prowess, making Rihanna not just a successful singer but also an accomplished businesswoman.
