Rihanna helps another Barbados band, Cover Drive
Friday, August 19th, 2011 | Rihanna
Rihanna’s not just sitting pretty, enjoying her mega-successful career — she’s also lending a helping hand to other musical acts from Barbados.
She picked newcomers Cover Drive to support her at a show for 20,000 people in her homeland on Aug. 5, which ensured strong notice for the newcomers.
The quartet told The Associated Press that backing up Rihanna was the best 20 minutes of their lives and they would love to have an amazing career like hers.
<!– NEW Ad placement inside of wires story well START.
This is a new ad position: 300×250 but I'm using the Ad_Right position for the mock-up
which is occasionally 300×600. The spec in Google Wave calls for this ad to be placed
inside a story at 'X' amount of words. Not sure how that will be accomplished programmatically,
but if for example the ad is placed in the middle of a paragraph, it should be smart enough to
add a
as well as a
to preserve formatting of the story paragraphs.

Cover Drive built up its own fan base by putting videos up on YouTube called the Fedora Sessions, which led to a record deal. Their debut single, “Lick You Down” (which means “knock you down” on the island) is being released Aug. 28.
