4 out of 5 stars Loving It   July 16, 2007

Rihanna's Progress So Far Has Far Better Work Than Any Other Hot Females In The World, I Should Think The Bestest One Is 'Pon De Replay' Or 'If It's Lovin That You Want'. I Proberly Think The Next Album Won't Be Any Better, Because 'Music Of The Sun' Is Getting On Well. Being Rihanna, She Is Decorative With Her Albums, Always At Work, And HOT!!!!!! This Album Will Be Great For Music Listeners And Rihanna Fans. Also, Well Good. Rihanna So Far Has Made An Exellent Progress With 'Here I Go Again' And 'There's A Thug In My Life' And A Hot Dance Single 'Pon De Replay (Turn The Music Up)', I Hope The DJ's Like Rihanna, And Turn The Pon De Replay Music'. Also, I've Just Found Out That 'There's A Thug In My Life' Sounds Simalar To Ciara's Thug Style, But Far Better, Overall, This Album Is Great For All You Listeners.

I never noticed Rihanna that much coz her first 2 singles pon de replay and if its luvin tht u want didnt catch my eye as much as it did to other people altho pondereplay was ok. However, when I heard SOS and Unfaithful, her 2 new songs (sadly not in this album but in her new one)made me pay attention to her more and I decided I should buy her new album Girl like me (which i havent got yet lol) but decided I should back track to her old album Music of the sun, as it had been highly reviewed on this website. After reading the reviews I was persuaded to buy it and because it was only 5.99 in a music shop, I expected it to be more catchy and quite beaty like Pondereply. and may I say, I was quite disappointed, maybe if I didn't have such high hopes from this album, I might have like it better, it isnt the worst, and Its still good to listen to but not as great as how other people say. And when the front cover sticker says its 'a caribean flavour', it really is!, ssome stand out songs but mainly pn de replay. I hope her new album is gonna be a disappointment either. Now my song reviews:

Pon de replay- def. the best song, got a good dancy sorta beat to it. 5/5
Here I go again- wierd, its like a caribbean style, it deosnt realy stick. 2/5
If its lovin tht you want: As sort of boring this song was when it was released, it's actually quite a highlight in this album, a few reggae/caribbean notes if u listen carefully. Not to bad. 4/5
You dont love me(nonono)- this is like the 2nd song and may sort of get you mixed up as they both have the caribbean style in the background, as wierd the song sounds, its sort of got a hook on it as it was stuck in my head for a while
3.5/5
That Lalala- aah, I like this song, it's still got a style of reggae, but you can hear the RnB more and it goes well together. 5/5
Last time - aww, a nice ballad to slow the pace down a bit, so some thought has been put into the song arrangement lol. a rather sweet song. 4/5
willing to wait-this is ok, its another slow ballad. 4/5
music of the sun - ah, the name of the album, so it should be good, and it is. its hard to describe but its sort of like a slow version of pondereplay.
let me - this ones good, its a upbeat tune thatll get you singing 5/5
Rush - like the above one, but not as good 4.5/5
11.theres a thug in my life - lol, the title reminds me ciara's Thug style on her Goodies album. its ok, its not a complete ballad, or too upbeat either. 4/5
Now i know- aw, another slow song, bit boring though, but ok to slow the pace again. 3/5
BONUS TRACKS
Pon de replay remix - a great remix, makes u wanna dance even more lol. 5/5
(UK bonus track)
should i?- another upbeat one. good song. 4.5/5

overall its a good album, especially the summer holidays have now started, got a great caribbean, holiday, sun feel. The reason I was disappointed was only because I expected something diffrent, but this album is good in its own way, So i wont completely put it down. Music of the sun - Indeed it is.

3.9/5 (only coz i was sort of disappointed, thats all)

What I like about this album is that it doesn't sound like every other modern day RnB album. It mixes hop-hop, Rnb, Reggae and pop together to make a brilliant album.

Top tracks:

1. Pon de Replay
2. Music of the Sun
3. Let Me
4. Rush
5. The Last Time

When I heard pon de replay I thought what a tune but when I saw the video I thought what a girl. I decided to buy the album and was it a good choice to make. The album is full of different tracks, some to dance to and some to chill to but all are very good. With a mix of rnb, reggae and dance this album will put a smile on your face
Do not hesitate this is a must buy.

Top 5 tracks from the album
5. Rush
4. That la la la
3. The last time
2. Pon de replay
1. If its lovin that you want
