Some new Rihanna for your Tuesday evening.

We're not always entirely on the Rihanna boat, but there's no denying that she certainly gets her pick of the catchiest songs floating in the pop universe.

Rated R is her new album, and from what we've been hearing on the web, it's looking to be anything but disappointing.

"Rude Boy" is one of the new tracks on Rated R, and these ears are loving every bit of it. It's one of those "low slung" midtempo R&B tracks, with a particularly great keyboard riff during the chorus and some rather naughty lyrics about being with a dominating pervert.

Lyrics such as "I like the way you pull my hair" do make things a bit awkward if you take into context some previous Rihanna headlines with a certain ex-boyfriend, but as a pop song it is more than just a little bit listenable.
