“I’m over my Rated R period, even though it was very successful for me. It was tough because I was forced to maintain a certain image for so long and now I just want to get out of that,” she says. “I want to have more fun with my music, my image and be more experimental. So, with Loud, I got a bit more rebellious and did whatever I wanted to do. I reinvented my image and took creative control.”
Rihanna on Madonna:
“I think that Madonna was a great inspiration for me, especially on my earlier work. If I had to examine her evolution through time, I think she reinvented her clothing style and music with success every single time. And at the same time remained a real force in entertainment in the whole world.”
