With A Girl Like Me, the Barbadian teen-queen Rihanna is looking to transfer all claims of royalty to the summertime pop charts. If anybody's going to rule them, she pretty much proclaims by way of "SOS," a song no less irresistible, intoxicating, and all-out cool than 2005's "Pon de Replay," off her debut, she's it. That's not to say this new disc is anything like its predecessor overall. Where Music of the Sun was mostly what its title suggests--a romp through an anglo-friendly island with no sunscreen required--A Girl Like Me is more reflective and a little rueful; you get the sense it was crafted in part to show her range, with executive producer Jay-Z guiding her through it gracefully. "Unfaithful" is a noir-ish testing of the R&B waters, and it goes so well that Rihanna wastes no time skinny-dipping her way into the deep end--"Final Goodbye," "P.S. (I'm Still Not Over You)," and "A Million Miles Away" all betray juicy bits of Beyonce. Back in barefoot bikini-girl land, though--a territory that covers roughly half this disc--the party's still going strong. Rihanna gives dancehall legend Sean Paul a run for his money with the bouncing "Break It Off," and "We Ride" makes you want to roll down the windows and stick your head out the passenger side. Crank it up and keep the sunglasses handy. --Tammy La Gorce

[3.5]--This Bajan princess put out a good/decent album this time around (2007-06-23)

I Had a chance to listen to this and personally "A Girl Like Me" turn into a less tropical-flavored album. This album flip more to a urban effort than her sun-and-fun debut. Then again, it's hard to be an effervescent island goddess 24-7 when your love life has suffered a crushing blow, something inferred by the numerous heartbreaking ballads included, all of them elegant, mature, and displaying artistic growth. Fans of her brilliant single "Pon de Replay" need not worry, though, as the album kicks off with its equal. Bursting out of the speakers, "SOS" is a sexy club tune that bites the bleepy riff from Soft Cell's "Tainted Love" in a very modern, very exciting mash-up fashion. The crunchy reggae of "Kisses Don't Lie" offers a less revolutionary alternative to Damian Marley's "Welcome to Jamrock." Then the album gets bolder and seamlessly bounces from genre to genre. Attempting things that would make lesser artists crumble, Rihanna goes from a film noir song that elegantly uses murder as a metaphor for cheating ("Unfaithful") to an easy-flowing weekend cruiser ("We Ride"). Even more stunning is the jump from the 2006 prom-song candidate "Final Goodbye" to the totally juiced "Break It Off," where she gives guest star and dancehall prince Sean Paul some serious competition. The good but not great redo of "If It's Lovin' That You Want" with Corey Gunz is the only track approaching filler, but it's clearly marked "bonus," so it's a wash. Executive produced by Jay-Z, "A Girl Like Me" is unsurprisingly polished, yet a richer experience than you'd expect from a singer responsible for the summer jam of 2005 but arguably in 2006.

Rihanna (A girl like me) (2006-09-29)

My God....there are a few words that can describe this album: Wonderful, awesome, super, amazing...... From the first song until the end, you will enjoy every single bit of them and you won't be able to restrain yourself for wanting to listen to the music over and over.I knew Rihanna was good, but now I believe that she may be outpassing Beyonce (whose new album sucks)....I recommend that CD 100%.......

FANTASTIC ALBUM (2006-08-30)

I really love this album. It's hott from start to finish. From S.O.S to We Ride to Break It Off to A Girl Like Me. This album is truly amazing. Hoping for more big things from this Bajan cutie. Representing big time for those of us in the Caribbean. Looking forward to the next album hopefully sometime soon. Trinipilot. #1 FAN
