No its Not. Its called hiring an artist.

by that logic Gaga also just hired the artist for ARTPOP cover?

Im not saying it's my opinion, just that your messages are implying so

I love it. Modern art.

My first thought was the album cover of Yeezus. I can see she's inspired by what Kanye dares to do.

+ Jay-Z's Magna Carta... Holy Grail.
Just look at their covers:

But it makes more sense this way.

GIRL BYE ! Because there is nothing artistic about that album cover other than hiring an artist to use his work. Rihanna is NOT an artist. She is a pop star. Period.  Go tell Diane Warren, Jeff Koonz, Sylvia Plath, Hell... James Cameron Rihanna is an "artist". 

 

I literally cannot with this. 

now this is a definition of messed up negative stan blind bashing gone horribly wrong :D:D 

YYou do realise you just called Gaga a NOT artist as well? She didnt make her cover, costumes, fashion, styling, statues, sets, Music videos.. Well anything. Other artists did. (She may have had an opinion, so has Rihanna).

EEssentially Gaga's own art is making popsongs. As she did, but even she had many other wrtiers helping + produced + ready instrumentals. So is she an artist in your mind?

Ofcourse gaga is! And a great one! But so is Rihanna in her own right too...

Opera singers are artists and so are classical musicians, eventhough they don't compose...

Why attack another artist like this? Its childish! You don't have to like Rihanna or her album cover but stop being so hate blinded.

I like it. It's much more interesting than just another pretty headshot.

I'm not a woman. I'm not a man. I am something that you'll never understand.

 Not at all. Gaga participated in the actual art as the canvas and muse, and had a level of say in it. We know thats not the case with ri ri. Im so sorry  to say lol

Im not.  And what you said is irrelevant because she writes every single one of her screen treatments. Every single one. Gaga is an artist by every definition.

Shes been theatrically trained over ten years. She took classical lessons for half her life. She went to Tisch. The only commonality she has with Rihanna is they make pop records.... which are nothing alike, and share no commonality on how they are created.

Its not hate because I could care less about her. I could call Rihanna an artist in a very limited sense of the word, meaning she sings. But thats it. To compare her to Lady Gaga on any level.... is laughable. Sorry Gaga has earned it. There is a difference between real art and what the industry tells you is art.   Any true artist in any sense of the word will tell you that. Go to New York tell the struggling Broadway Actors, songwriters, dancers that Rihanna makes "art" they will laugh at you . 

 

Perhaps Rihanna pointed a finger or two, maybe wrote some songs as OP mentioned. Great, its progress and im happy to recognize that. But she is a far cry from gaga.

Jeff Koonz actually used her as part of the actual art. He didnt slap something together in photoshop lol. 

Like I said , Im open to her growing and becoming an artist... but its a stretch.  I would say the same for 90% of the pop industry. And thats ok. It is what it is. Im not here to apologize for it.

Roy didn't slap it either. He actually painted/drew rihanna using her picture from childhood as inspiration. and he didn't make art in photoshop either. You can see process here :

He first made a paiting of rihanna and then did the rest
