2025 will mark the 18-year anniversary of Rihanna‘s breakout hit single, “Umbrella.” Rihanna was a name that was steadily on the rise by 2007, finding modest early success with “SOS” and “Unfaithful.” Soon enough, on March 29, Rihanna’s superstardom became undeniable upon Def Jam’s release of “Umbrella,” having her credibility boosted by a feature from Jay-Z and production/writing credits from The-Dream, Christopher “Tricky” Stewart, and Kuk Harrell.
