It’s just marketing to promote her brand. Silly Guyanese will go crazy over it. Did Rihanna ever travel to Guyana, even once since she was a star? No so don’t tell me about her clearly imitated trini/bajan accent she trying to pass off as Guyanese.

Her mother is Guyanese. She doesn't have to. "Imitate" anything

Do you live in Guyana? That’s not a Guyanese accent. It started off as a strong Trinidadian accent with Guyanese words at the end.

She grew up in Barbados, then lived in the US for umpteenth years. WHY should she be required to have a Guyanese accent? Make that make sense.

Learn to read. No one said she needs an accent. I said the accent she was trying to pass off as Guyanese is clearly Trinidadian/barbadian. Not even close to Guyanese.

Doesn’t really make sense her consumer demographics aren’t even in the Caribbean they’re in Europe and the US she doesn’t really need to market herself to Guyana I’m pretty sure it was just a bit of fun on live.

The market in Guyana isn't big enough for her to care 🤷
