Rihanna’s Ode to the Dancehall Queen – “Rude Boy” Video

Rihanna recently release a video for “Rude Boy” the latest single from Rated R.

While some may draw a slight video comparison to M.I.A.’s “Boys” video directed by JayWill, I find it more reminiscent of Dancehall fashion circa early ’90s. Colorful, sometimes gaudy, thread with unconventional patterns — the more outrageous the better! Check out a few clips from the original Dancehall queen, Carlene.
