Umbrella

Momentum

This song has not appeared on a Rotation chart, so it has no score and no receipts. The rank history below is the ledger; a score is only published once the momentum run puts it on a chart.

Why it's here

The song was originally written for Britney Spears and passed on to Taio Cruz before being sent to Rihanna, giving it a backstory as a hit-in-waiting before it found its eventual singer. [1] Jay-Z rewrote his guest verse without producers' knowledge, reshaping it around the umbrella and weather metaphors that define the song's hook. [2] The accompanying video, featuring Rihanna covered in silver body paint, won Video of the Year and Monster Single of the Year at the 2007 MTV Video Music Awards. [3]

In culture

Every place this record has lived. A solid chip states a fact and carries the citation that earns it; a dashed one is a connection somebody drew, and carries their name instead.
