As soon as you hear the intro (and the ‘uh-huh, uh-huh), you know you're in for a ride, but nothing can prepare you for the chorus after the bridge.
Rihanna is the queen of pop bangers, but nothing has quite compared to ‘Umbrella’ since it was released (we know, that's a controversial statement). ‘Umbrella’ not only introduced the world at large to one of pop's biggest stars, but it also ushered in a pop-culture dynasty, with fellow mogul Jay-Z on board to co-sign. As soon as you hear the intro (and the ‘uh-huh, uh-huh), you know you're in for a ride, but nothing can prepare you for the chorus after the bridge. If you're not screaming it at the top of your lungs, you're doing it wrong. Long live Queen Ri.
