Meanwhile Rihanna’s ex-boyfriend Rapper Chris Brown has indicated that he is going to dedicate his new album X to Rihanna.
“The song and the album title ‘X’ has a couple different meanings. It can refer to an ex-girlfriend, in terms of you always look forward to moving forward from. It’s also about being a reject in a sense. In me being myself, being able to grow up, me not always hanging around the right crowd or doing the right thing all the time — it’s me saying, ‘I’m over it. I’m’,” 23-year-old Chris Brown said.
