ANSWER: According to IslandDefJam, "Rihanna is a talented songwriter who has co-written much of her album." For example, she co-wrote "Now I Know", "A Girl Like Me", and "Music of the Sun". Her smash hit "Umbrella" (2008 Grammy nominee for Song of the Year) was written by Shawn Carter, Kuk Harrell, Terius "Dream" Nash, & Christopher Stewart. "Umbrella" lost the award to the much-less-deserving "Rehab," by Amy Winehouse. Ironically, Rihanna also released a song called "Rehab," which was written by Hannon Lane, Justin Timberlake, and Timothy Mosley. "Pon De Replay" was written by Vada J. Nobles, Evan Rogers, Alisha Brooks, and Carl Sturken. "Good Girl Gone Bad" was written by Shaffer Smith, Tor Erik Hermansen, Lene Marlin Pedrson, Mikkel Storleer Erikson, and Tor Hermansen. "We Ride" was written by Makeba Riddick, Mikkel Eriksen, and Tor Hermansen. "Cry" was written by Mikkel Eriksen, Tor Hermansen, and Frankie Storm. "Take a Bow" was written by Mikkel Eriksen, Tor Hermansen, and Shaffer Smith. "Unfaithful" was written by Shaffer Smith, Mikkel Eriksen, and Tor Erik Hermansen. As you can see from the trend, Smith, Eriksen, and Hermansen are recurring songwriters who write much of Rihanna's material. As a footnote, Rihanna (aka Robyn Fenty) also co-wrote Sean Paul's "Break it Off". Source: MetroLyrics.com
