\"Jay-Z,<\/a>Rap star Jay-Z joined Rihanna on stage for two songs as she launched her new album, Rated R, in Brixton, London.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Barbadian singer, 21, was playing her first show since she was assaulted by her ex-boyfriend, Chris Brown, in February this year.<\/p>\n

She emerged on stage in an eye mask and studded leotard to perform a selection of new songs and hits like Take A Bow.<\/p>\n

Jay-Z made his surprise appearance for the finale, performing his recent hit, Run This Town, and Rihanna’s Umbrella.<\/p>\n

Several members of the audience, made up of competition winners, held aloft umbrellas during the song in an unorthodox moment of crowd participation.<\/p>\n

The 45-minute show kicked off with two songs from Rihanna’s new album – Wait Your Turn and Russian Roulette.<\/p>\n

Slow-burning and dramatic, they set the tone for a concert where many of the star’s hits were reinvented with distorted guitars and dark, pulsing synths.<\/p>\n

The set-list included fan favourites such as Don’t Stop The Music and Disturbia, while Rihanna was also joined by rapper Young Jeezy for Hard, a track which is set to be the second single from her new album.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
