Rihanna had to change the title of her latest album, after getting some flack due to her choice.

The singer dropped her latest album, “Rated R”, on November 23rd and has revealed that the name wasn’t her first choice. She said, “I actually wanted to name my album, ‘Such A F***ing Lady’, but a couple of stores, a couple of major outlets didn’t allow that…That was the title for a while, but ‘Rated R’ made more sense because of the overall story. It’s a movie really, the album. But ‘Such A F***ing Lady’ – we take everything back to that – especially in our style.”

I can’t imagine Best Buy or Walmart buying that up in droves with that title, even if it’s more fitting as to her vision for the album. Having said that, I must say that I loathe censorship. She should have been able to keep her original album title, with no quips from the little guys.
