Rihanna talks about her inspiration for 'Rude Boy' music video


“It’s really colorful; it’s a pop art video,” Rihanna told MTV Korea. “We shot it all on green screen. Everything was done in post-production. It’s really colorful, really energetic. It was really inspired by my Caribbean roots. I love reggae music. "Rude Boy" is a Jamaican term, so our costumes are dancehall-queen-like. It’s a fun video. Probably the most fun video we’ve done so far.”

come yah rude bwoy bwoy, yuh anaconda big enuff?

I had a hilarious discussion with my hairdresser the other day about how the mushroom cut is coming back a la Rihanna and how she's horrified at the idea that someone will come in wanting it.

Good times.

The song doesn't even sound Caribbean/Jamaican inspired. But since it's called "Rude Boy" I guess that counts. :/
voyevoda 24th-Feb-2010 08:03 pm (UTC)
I thought the same...but maybe I don't listen to enough Caribbean/Jamaican music?
lemonsherry 24th-Feb-2010 08:09 pm (UTC)
nowadays alot of jamaican mainstream music sounds like american pop/rnb to be honest. all autotune and american slang...sigh.
lemonsherry 24th-Feb-2010 08:06 pm (UTC)
The term 'rude boy' is a jamaican one..which is why the video is Caribbean/Jamaican inspired. Thats what she's saying.
tranboleyn 24th-Feb-2010 08:02 pm (UTC)
She forgot to mention MIA.

Pretty girl, pretty voice. I don't understand what would possess her to cover THIS particular song, but whatever.
jennyholly2 Re: WHY24th-Feb-2010 08:19 pm (UTC)

It bugs me that she doesn't seem to grasp compound sentences. What the fuck is up with the staccato effect?
candysweet21 24th-Feb-2010 08:13 pm (UTC)
I love this song sfm
purplerains 24th-Feb-2010 08:16 pm (UTC)
No. It was MIA! I first saw that style in Boyz, therefore she must have created it. Durp.
jeru02 24th-Feb-2010 08:18 pm (UTC)
no pop art for you

OT: can anyone think of a easy to do but fairly ~out there~/ unique fancy dress/ costume? There's no theme. We have this thing at school where our whole year dresses up, was going to do Avatar with some mates but then realised blue body paint probs won't work amazingly on brown skin :P
entelodont 24th-Feb-2010 08:27 pm (UTC)
Latex body paint will cover any skin tone and is very durable to boot.
