This is the first Rihanna's album to receive a 2 times Platinum certification by RIAA.

The album was re-released in June 2008, a year after its original release, under the title Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded. The double-disc deluxe edition package includes three new singles: the U.S., Canadian and UK number-one "Take a Bow", "If I Never See Your Face Again" (which debuted at number fifty-seven on the Billboard Hot 100) and "Disturbia", which became the third single from the album to reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100. The album has been certified two times Platinum by the RIAA, denoting shipments to U.S. retailers of two million copies.

Production and theme

Following her second studio album, A Girl Like Me (2006), Rihanna started working with songwriters and producers early in 2007. Rihanna spent the week of the 2007 Grammy Awards with singer, songwriter and Def Jam label mate Ne-Yo for the follow-up. He had co-written her ballad-driven "Unfaithful", and she had vocal lessons with him for the new album. In addition to him, she collaborated with Evan and Carl, record producer Sean Garrett and Norwegian production team Stargate, with whom she had previously worked. Rihanna also booked Timbaland, will.i.am and J.R. Rotem in the studio to work with her. Most of the album tracks were recorded in Los Angeles, California, and, parallel to the recording sessions of her second studio album, A Girl Like Me, Rihanna was almost done recording late in February 2007.

Rihanna herself stated that the album is greatly inspired by Brandy's 2004 album Afrodisiac: "That album I listen to all day, all night. When I was in the studio that was the album that I listened to all the time and I really admired that every song was a great song. You could listen to the entire album. And I was like, 'You know what? I have to make an album like this'".

The genre of the new album is a slightly new direction for the singer, favouring uptempo dance numbers. It followed her club-natured melodies and, like its predecessor, includes R&B and ballads. In an interview surrounding the album's theme, Rihanna claimed, "You feel different every album, and this stage I feel like I want to do a lot of uptempo . I want to keep people dancing but still be soulful at the same time."

During an interview on UK radio station Capital FM, Rihanna explained the meaning and reasoning behind the album title:

Bad is not sleazy. Bad has its own term to every individual and in my case it just means I've gotten a little rebellious on the album, broken out of my shell and I'm taking risks... Michael Jackson "Bad" kind of way.

Promotion

Appearances

Rihanna made formal appearances around the United Kingdom, including a performance in Preston. At a mini/promotional concert, she performed "Umbrella", "Shut Up and Drive" and "Breakin' Dishes". In the United States, she performed "Umbrella" at the 2007 MTV Movie Awards, "Hate That I Love You" at the 2007 American Music Awards of 2007, and "Umbrella" and "Don't Stop the Music" at the 50th Annual Grammy Awards (on February 10 2008).

The Good Girl Gone Bad Tour

See also: The Good Girl Gone Bad Tour

Rihanna embarked on a worldwide concert tour on September 15, three months after the release of the album. It consisted of three legs with sixty-one shows and ended on April 5, 2008. The first leg began in Canada, consisting of eleven shows across the country with Akon, and it later passed (without Akon) through United States and Europe. Supporting acts for the tour were Akon, Ciara and David Jordan.

Chart performance

In the United Kingdom, Good Girl Gone Bad became Rihanna's first number-one album, debuting with 53,000 copies sold in its first week; it spent one week at number one. By the end of 2007, it had sold 560,000 copies, making it the 10th biggest-selling album of the year. The album has since gone four times platinum and has sold over 1.2 million copies. Good Girl Gone Bad rose to number twelve in the first week that the re-release was available for sale, and to number ten two weeks later.

In the United States, Good Girl Gone Bad has sold more than ten million singles. The album received a two-times platinum certification from the RIAA for having shipped two million copies.

In Europe, the album was awarded a three-times platinum certification by the IFPI for sales of three million, becoming one of the best-selling albums on that continent for 2007.

Good Girl Gone Bad has created 3 United World Chart number one singles, only the fifth album in history to achieve this feat, following Michael Jackson's Bad , Madonna's True Blue, Britney Spears' …Baby One More Time and Britney Spears' In the Zone.

Singles

  • The lead single, "Umbrella" was released during late March in the United States and early May across the rest of the world. "Umbrella" reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the issue date June 9 2007 and held that position for seven weeks. The song remained at number one on the UK Singles Chart for ten consecutive weeks, the longest running chart topper in a decade. The single reached number one in twenty-seven other countries across the globe, and it is the most successful song from the album so far. According to the IFPI, by the end of November 2007 "Umbrella" had sold 6.6 million units across the world and remained a best-seller into the first quarter of 2008. It stayed in the UWC for 38 weeks and gained more than 8.6 million points and is the 8th best seller of the decade.
  • The second single, "Shut Up and Drive", was released in August. Although it did not reach the same level of success as "Umbrella", it achieved top five peaks in Australia, Finland, Ireland, Netherlands and the UK, as well as reaching the top twenty in sixteen countries.
  • The third single in North America, Australia, Brazil and the UK (Fourth in Europe), "Hate That I Love You" (featuring Ne-Yo), became another hit in the United States and elsewhere. It peaked inside the top ten on the Billboard Hot 100 at 7 and attained top twenty status in over fifteen countries.
  • The fourth single off the album (the third in Europe), "Don't Stop the Music", was another global success, reaching the top spot on ten charts across the world and peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot 100. The single was a top ten hit in twenty-five countries and peaked at number one on the United World Chart, gaining 7.6 million points, and ranking as the 17th best seller of the decade.
  • The re-release of the album, Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded, was supported by the single "Take a Bow", which went to number one in the United Kingdom, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand and the United States and became a top ten hit in over thirteen countries. The single made the greatest jump to number one on the Canadian Hot 100 in the chart's history; it also made the second biggest jumps to number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. It was the second number-one single from the album in both countries.
  • The first single taken from the re-release in Latin America and Spain was a Spanglish version of "Hate That I Love You" featuring David Bisbal, which was as successful as the other singles, reaching the top five in Spain.
  • The second single from the re-release, "If I Never See Your Face Again", a remix of a song by pop-rock group Maroon 5, became a top forty hit in various European countries and Canada though it only peaked at 51 in the U.S.
  • "Disturbia", the re-release's third single and the album's seventh single overall, was released to radio on June 17, 2008 and made its debut at number eighteen on the Hot 100 chart (Rihanna's highest debut to date on the chart). The single has since become Rihanna's third number one single from the album on the Billboard Hot 100. It has also reached number one in New Zealand, making it her second number one song from the album, following "Umbrella". It has gone top ten in places including the United Kingdom, Ireland, and on the Canadian Hot 100. It has so far reached the top ten in nine countries, and the top twenty in eleven countries. The video premiered on July 22, 2008.

Critical reception

Good Girl Gone Bad received generally positive reviews from critics.

  • Andy Kellman of Allmusic said that "From beginning to end, Good Girl Gone Bad is as pop as pop gets in 2007, each one of its 12 songs a potential hit in some territory".
  • Kelefa Sanneh of the New York Times stated that "This CD sounds as if it were scientifically engineered to deliver hits. “Good Girl Gone Bad" should secure her place on pop music’s A-list".
  • Pitchfork Media states "An unexpectedly varied and satisfying listen".
  • Neil Drumming of Entertainment Weekly said that "Rihanna works well with edgier and wittier verse than on her two previous albums".
  • Time magazine named "Umbrella" one of The 10 Best Songs of 2007, ranking it at number three. Explained writer Josh Tyrangiel: "Rihanna has a special talent for vocal innuendo. She toys with the word umbrella — or, as Rihanna would put it, um-ba-rella, ella, ella — as if she's taking it for a ride on a water bed. The sexiest song of 2007."

The album has received six Grammy Award nominations, including Best R&B Song, Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals for "Hate That I Love You", Best Dance Recording for "Don't Stop the Music", and Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Rap/Sung Collaboration for "Umbrella", winning in the last category.

It came with new album art, which features a green toned background instead of the original's grey toned background. In the UK, the background is a white-gray toned background instead of the green. The revamped version of the album was released in most countries on June 17, but the CD version was released on June 2 in the UK (with the DVD version following on June 16) and on June 21 in Australia. "Disturbia" was released online in May 2008. The song "Cry" was released on international versions of the album and is a UK and Australian bonus track on the re-release. The re-release made the album soar from 124 to 7 on the Billboard 200, selling 63,000 copies and having a 930% sales increases. iTunes has now removed the standard version of Good Girl Gone Bad and replaced it with the new reloaded version. In France the album soared from 141 to forty-three having the greatest gainer of the week. In the UK it soared from number fifty-nine to number twelve having the "Greatest Gainer" certification, before rising to number nine several weeks later.
