Revisiting All of Rihanna's Music Eras
What Was Rihanna's Best Music Era? We Revisited Them All
1
While "Music of the Sun" isn't Rihanna's most experimental or critically acclaimed album, it is, without a doubt, the inciting release that launched her longstanding music career. Led by her catchy debut single "Pon de Replay," the Barbadian singer's first LP placed her at the forefront of the 2000s dancehall revival alongside legends like Beenie Man and Sean Paul. It marked her first foray into blending sounds of different cultures and backgrounds, particularly Caribbean music and R&B. The two singles released from this album quickly shut down rumblings of Rihanna being a one-hit wonder and, instead, established her as a major pop star in the making.
