Rihanna blesses another magazine cover, the Summer 2015 issue of V Magazine. The Bajan princess is made up into what seems like a ’70s model and ’90s-era Lil Kim. RiRi touches on her upcoming album R8 – with the magazine – which she calls “soulful and aggressive.”

“Dude, I’m in love with my interludes. This one called ‘James,’ joint is on constant repeat,” she said. “[The album is] soulful and aggressive, whether it’s lyrically, musically, or just the tone of my voice.”

The issue hits newsstands May 7th and can be pre-ordered here. Check out the rest of the photos on the next couple of pages.
