Rihanna "Diamonds"

Rihanna, one of my favorite singers did a beautiful job with a recent song "Diamonds". I love the fact that she used her accent in this song, it makes the song so much better. I like this song so much that I did a cover but could not upload it (don't worry it wasn't that good). Instead, I decided to use her official video. In this video, the setting changes back and forth from her being in a house to running on a road. The video made the song more realistic by portraying the meaning of her lyrics. I was surprised at the opening scene where Rihanna has tattoos on her hands. I'm sure they are not real but I thought the designs were really pretty. I feel like this video along with some of her most recents ones show much she has changed from her first music video. When she first came out, she was not sexually appealing but instead had this innocence about her. As she got older and she grew more within the music industry, she changed and I'm not sure if this was her decision but I think that like most singers, pressure got to her and she became a sexualized figure to both men and women.
