Rihanna is one of the most iconic performers of her generation—but she also boasts one of pop music's most unique voices.

The eight-time Grammy-winning Barbadian singer made her debut on 2005's sun-kissed dance hit, "Pon de Replay," only to reemerge with a more sultry sound and image on 2007's Good Girl Gone Bad, which featured her career-solidifying smash, "Umbrella."

Since then, RiRi's inimitable, powerful yet vulnerable vocal delivery has propelled tracks like "Only Girl (In the World)," "What's My Name?," "We Found Love," "FourFiveSeconds" and "Work" to the top of the charts.
