Loud is the
fifth studio album by Barbadian singer Rihanna. It was released on November 12, 2010, by Def Jam
Recordings and
SRP Records. The album was recorded between February and August 2010, during
the singer's Last Girl on Earth
tour and the filming of her first feature film Battleship(2012). Rihanna and L.A. Reid were the executive producers of Loud
and worked with various record producers, including Stargate,
Sandy Vee, The Runners, Tricky Stewart and Alex da Kid. The album features several guest vocalists,
including rappers Drake, Nicki Minaj and Eminem, who is featured on the sequel to "Love
the Way You Lie",
titled "Love the Way You Lie (Part II)".
A dance-pop and R&B album, Loud differs from Rihanna's
previous record, Rated R(2009), which incorporates a prominently
foreboding and angry tone and dark themes. Loud features up-tempo songs, and marks the return to dancehall; a genre prominent on her first two albums Music of the Sun(2005) and A Girl like Me(2006).
It also uses rock
in "California
King Bed" and reggae
in the Caribbean-inspired "Man Down".
Loud received
generally positive reviews from music critics, who complimented its upbeat
material and Rihanna's vocal performances, while others stated that although the
songs were solid, they were unfocused to each other. The album was a commercial
success; it debuted at number three on the US Billboard 200 chart, with sales of 207,000 copies,
the highest first-week sales of her career at the time. The album peaked at
number one on the Canadian, Swiss
and the UK album charts. According to the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry(IFPI), Loud was the eighth global best-selling
album of 2011. Since its release, it has sold over 8 million copies worldwide.
The album produced seven singles, including
the international hits "Only Girl (In the World)",
"What's My Name?",
and "S&M". All three singles reached number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. "S&M" was Rihanna's
tenth number one song in the US, making Rihanna the youngest recording artist
to accumulate the plateau in the shortest time, surpassing Mariah Carey. "Only Girl (In the World)" won the Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording in February 2011; additionally, the
album was nominated for three more Grammy Awards, including for Album of the Year. To support the album, Rihanna embarked on her third worldwide concert tour,
entitled the Loud Tour.

Feels so good being
bad
There's no way I'm turning back
Now the pain is for pleasure
'Cause nothing can measure
Love is great, love
is fine
Out the box, out of line
The affliction of the feeling leaves me wanting more
'Cause I may be bad
but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
'Cause I may be bad
but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
Na na na come on,
come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it
Love is great, love
is fine
Out the box, out of line
The affliction of the feeling leaves me wanting more
'Cause I may be bad
but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
Na na na come on,
come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it
S, S, S and M, M, M

Oh I love the feeling
you bring to me
Oh, you turn me on
It's exactly what I've been yearning for
Give it to me strong
And meet me in my boudoir
Make my body say ah, ah, ah
I like it, like it
'Cause I may be bad but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
'Cause I may be bad
but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
Na na na come on,

I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it
S, S, S and M, M, M
