Rihanna

"Diamonds" (video)

Pop queen Rihanna is gearing to drop her next LP Unapologetic on November 19 through Universal, and she has just delivered a shiny new video for her clubby ballad "Diamonds" to promote the set.

It all starts off with RiRi rolling up a nice little cigarillo filled with miniature jewels, possibly from the same pile of "conflict-free" diamonds that are being packaged with Unapologetic's deluxe box set. The high she gets from huffing those rocks gives her a series of elemental visions. She spaces out at the sight of the northern lights, hangs out with some bucking black stallions on an earthy plain, walks past the wreckage and burning bodies of a riot, and tenderly touches a tattooed dude in an ocean.

You can check it all out down below.

Don't forget, Rihanna will be hitting North America with A$AP Rocky next spring. You can check the schedule over here.
