Rihanna's image and music have evolved significantly over her career. Her early music videos, like "Pon de Replay", portrayed her as innocent and playful to appeal to young girls. Later videos, such as "SOS" and "Disturbia", showed a more mature and sexually appealing image through more revealing clothing and sensual dancing to attract male viewers. Her album "Good Girl Gone Bad" signified this transformation to a desirable woman. Rihanna has continued changing her image, like the edgier style in "Russian Roulette" reflecting her personal growth. This strategic shifting of her persona has been commercially successful and helped establish Rihanna as a leading recording artist.

The back cover would feature another image of the artist along with the song list so listeners know what they are purchasing.
