Rihanna is a Barbasdos grown artist who comes from a home of struggle.  She sold clothes with her father of Afro-Barbadian and Irish descent. Sadly, her early life was deeply affected by her dad’s addiction to crack and alcohol. This led to the divorce of her parents. Rihanna then entered the army as a cadet in a sub-military program. Her drill sergeant was a singer-songwriter named Shontelle. Not soon after Rihanna formed a musical trio with two of her classmates. Her talent was noticed by an American record producer named Evan Rogers who then shared her demo tape. This led to her signing the best deal of her life with Def Jam Recordings.

Since then, Rihanna has risen to fame starting with ehr debut album “Music of the Sun”. This was just the beginning to her trending in the Top 10 charts. She has won multiple Grammys, it multi-platinum and many of her songs have ranked as worldwide best-selling singles.

Recognized as not only the best icon of today’s music, but she is one of  best-selling music artist o all time, with over 250 million records sold. She is the youngest artist to have so many billboard hits. Claiming titles such as Hot 100 artist, most streamed artist on Spotify, 9 Grammys, 12 AMA’s and 12 Billboard awards.  Furthermore, she was awarded with the inaugural American Music Award for Icon in 2013 and the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award in 2016. In addition, Rihanna received the Fashion Icon lifetime achievement award in 2014. She’s also been Forbes most powerful celebrity, and a number of recognitions for being the sexiest woman alive.

Overall, she is literally the greatest! She does it all from fashion to music.

Bad Gal RiRi and Cannabis

Everyone knows that Rihanna is the real deal when it comes to smoking. She has always been open about her love for weed. She has been honest about it on several occasions through her fashion, music and even at her concerts. And while lately, she has claimed to being “slowing down” on her consumption, that hasn’t stopped her advocacy for the drug.

It comes to no surprise that her album cover for Talk That Talk  feature both a blunt rolling and smoke clouds. Or that she did a marijuana interpretation of Marie Antoinette for CR Fashion Book.

Higher Conclusion:

Still, even though Riri has stuck to her passions, she’s also clearly committed to variety. Every single photo of Rihanna smoking a blunt also serves as illustration and creativity. From smoking while swimming to smoking while fishing to smoking while promoting music videos to smoking as a means to get ready to party with Dior. Rihanna really has created a culture and lifestyle out of cannabis. Showing that can be apart of everyday life. Nevertheless, with her list of accomplishments no one can argue that the weed makes her lazy or uninspired. Cheers to the Queen of Hustle!
