Rihanna blew before Umbrella, she had 3 smash top 10 singles before Umbrella (Pon De replay, SOS, and Unfaithful). SOS went #1.

Umbrella was the song that made her. I've never paid any attention to the charts. Pon De Replay won't shyt and because it won't, is why I never saw her being the star. That song might've done well on the charts but it won't no shyt that getting serious play like that.

SOS was a bit more catchier as a Pop song. But Umbrella was the 1 that made her "Rhianna".

Breh pon de replay was on every radio station all summer that year. It was a HUGE smash hit. Only thing that kept it from number 1 was mariahs we belong together which was there for like 14 weeks straight.

Not only that but SOS went #1 the very next year. And she had another top 5 single with Unfaithful. Saying Rihanna didn't blow until Umbrella is kind of like saying Drake didn't blow until Started From the Bottom.

This.

The only difference is she really started selling albums when "Umbrella" dropped. That's when her reign of #1's started snd she wss consistently going platinum.
