Rihanna is all things fabulous. She is so creative. These photos are a look at a visionary at work. Everything she touches turns to gold. I’m inspired to do more and be better.
An excellent pick for die hard fans of Rihanna like myself. The book starts off during the Loud Tour and ends at the end of the ANTI World Tour era. And for anybody that doesn’t know, this is just a book of behind the scenes photos.
