Earlier this week, Rihanna traveled back to her birthplace of Barbados to partake in a ceremony that’ll add to her admirable legacy. The “Love Without Tragedy/Mother Mary” singer was honored with her very own street named Rihanna Drive and decided to take a trip down memory lane to commemorate the achievement.
“All the lessons, running around barefoot, nosey neighbors, braiding hair on the step, playing in the cemetery, walking to the beach, rum shop karaoke keeping the whole street awake til 4am (“only the lonely” by Roy Orbison is playing in my head as I type this) , stealing Sammy pomegranates from his tree, begging my mother to let me walk to Jan’s shop cause she had American snacks,” the 29-year-old artist wrote on Instagram. “WESTBURY is more than a community, we’re family!!! Thank you for all that you’ve poured into my life and the woman I am! It takes a village, and I’m glad my village was you!!!! To God be the Glory!!!!
To add to her monetarily successful 2017, Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty entity continues to release crowd-pleasing items that sell out in minutes. Her recent product, STUNNA Lip Paint, has received rave reviews from consumers.
