[Intro]
Where have you been all my life?
Where have you been all my life?

[Verse 1]
I've been everywhere, man, looking for someone
Someone who can please me, love me all night long
I've been everywhere, man, looking for you babe
Looking for you babe, searching for you babe

[Pre-Chorus]
Where have you been?
Cause I never see you out
Are you hiding from me, yeah?
Somewhere in the crowd, oh

[Chorus]
Where have you been?
All my life, all my life
Where have you been all my life?
Where have you been all my life?
Where have you been all my life?
Where have you been all my life?

Where have you been?
Cause I never see you out
Are you hiding from me, yeah?

A true pop icon, Robyn “Rihanna” Fenty is a singer, actress, and businesswoman from Saint Michael, Barbados. She was first discovered by American record producer Evan Rogers in 2003 and later signed a contract to Def Jam Recordings in 2004, after auditioning for its then-president, JAY-Z.

The following year, in 2005, she released her debut album Music of the Sun and its follow-up, A Girl Like Me, in 2006. Both albums did well commercially, but it wasn’t until the release of her third album, Good Girl Gone Bad, in 2007 that poised Rihanna as an international pop star. It became her first album to receive a Grammy nomination (seven to be exact) and features one of her biggest hits, “Umbrella.”

Moving onto 2009, Rihanna released her fourth studio album, Rated R. It featured a darker and more atmospheric tone from her previous albums. She released her fifth studio album, Loud, the next year in 2010. It marked her return to making dance-pop records. That summer, she featured on Eminem’s smash hit, “Love the Way You Lie” and is one of her most popular features of all time.
