With her last single staying at number one for over two months, Rihanna's certainly not doing badly for herself this year. Although it's taken her a while to really break through, despite the success of previous single 'Pon De Replay' and others, now she's had so much success it seems likely that the diminutive pop star will ride on this wave for quite a while to come.
'Shut Up And Drive' is just fantastic, harking back to the glory days of Britney and Christina with a little bit of Girls Aloud thrown in there for the common good. It's joyous retro pop at its best, without a touch of cheese to it. While, for that reason, it may not do quite as well as the rather more r'n'b 'Umbrella', it is to be hoped that this fabulously bouncy, fast-paced tune will give Rihanna another chart success.
