...changing backgrounds even compensate for the lack of synchronized movement. Overall, S.O.S. is a fairly standard pop music video. Rihanna burst onto the charts last summer with a unique sound, but her latest effort merely indicates that she is versatile enough to produce hits outside of the reggae/dancehall realm, just like every other pop singer.

Not B.B. King. Sixty years spent working with something as visceral as the blues has left him with no inclination to join the other immortals on music's Parnassus. Instead, he has chosen to remain right here with us, on the coal face of humanity, mining our rawest emotions to fuel a music that has the power to warm any heart. King's vast corpus...
