    This is what I got in an email from a friend. I don't know if it's true, but just take a look! Everyone was singing this song for months!
    Warning: this is quite a long post!


    ----------------------------------------

    Take a good read, this makes it clear that in this world you are either for God or for the devil. I know for many the songs of the world are catchy and seems fun but please read this and consider is it worth it...make no mistake the enemy is playing for keeps.
    God bless,




    Warning: the analysis of this song deals with very disturbing subject matters.
    What is Rihanna’s Umbrella song about? First times I’ve heard this song, I was confused. Is it about a woman’s unconditional friendship for her man? Is it a “sexy song”? At face value, it seems so. However, if you listen closely to Rihanna and Jay-Z’s words, you might notice that the lyrics do not make any sense. The vocabulary used in this song is not about a relationship between two lovers. The fact is, Umbrella is about a subject matter that is sinister, dark and disturbing: becoming possessed by evil.


    What does “under my umbrella” mean?
    In a nutshell, the song talks about a storm that’s about to take place and Rihanna offers her loved one protection under her umbrella. In this song, “You can stand under my umbrella” can have a sexual connotation but it mostly means “You can be under my protection”. When you are under something’s protection, this something has more power than you regarding your own security. You depend on it. It has control over you. IT possesses you. The song is not about love between woman and man, it’s about being protected. It is not an equal relationship. The one that protects basically owns the person that is protected.
    Analyzing the song
    The first thing that you need to know about the song’s lyrics is that Rihanna sings the whole song but she actually takes on two roles. During the first half of the song, she plays the role of an evil entity that is trying to seduce and possess Rihanna. For the purpose of this analysis we’ll call this entity the Devil. The second role she plays is herself. So the song is basically a dialog between the Devil and Rihanna. The video of the song makes this very clear and we’ll explain how later.

    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]


    What is possession?
    Possession, in relationship to non-human entities deals with the phenomena wherein a non-human entity controls the human being through various methods. In possession, the human being cannot think for themselves. Instead, their thoughts are given to them by their possessor. We’ll see how the Devil tries and succeeds at possessing Rihanna in this song. There is a reason why the album is called “Good Girl Gone Bad”.

    Jay-Z’s prophetic verse
    So the song starts off with a verse of rapper Jay-Z. He plays the role of someone that has already been possessed and already “under the umbrella” of the Devil. Here’s his verse:

    No clouds in my stones
    Let it rain, I hydroplane in the bank
    Coming down with the Dow Jones
    When the clouds come we gone, we Rocafella
    We fly higher than weather
    And G5’s are better, You know me,
    an anticipation, for precipitation. Stacked chips for the rainy day
    Jay, Rain Man is back with little Ms. Sunshine
    Rihanna where you at?



    Explanation

    “No clouds in my stones
    Let it rain, I hydroplane in the bank
    Coming down with the Dow Jones”


    So the “storm” is in fact related to the economy and the financial world. “Coming down with the Dow Jones” reflects this situation. The Dow Jones is the main indicator of the health of the stock market. If it plummets, we can talk about a market crash. This reference is pretty eerie as it effectively predicts the crash of the stock markets that is taking place now, which is two years after the release of the song. We all know that, since September of this year (2008), the Dow Jones has experienced its biggest drops since the great depression. Here’s a random quote from today’s news (December 11th):


    Stocks on Wall Street fell sharply on Thursday afternoon, with the Dow Jones industrials sliding 200 points, as investors weighed a lower sales outlook and a widening trade gap that could spell trouble for American businesses.


    The fact that this song was made in 2006, two full years before even having signs of recession is strange. You’ll notice that the whole song has a pessimistic outlook concerning the future. Jay-Z is saying “Let it rain”, he doesn’t care about the financial crisis, he “hydroplanes in the bank”. In other words, while the bank is being flooded by this storm and people are drowning in it, he’s above the water and surviving the crisis.

    When the clouds come we gone, we Rocafella
    In other words, when the financial crisis will occur, we won’t be here to suffer through it. “Rocafella” is the name of Jay-Z’s record label. It also refers to John D. Rockefeller and his family, the biggest industrialists in American History and huge actors in the formation of the social-economic world we’re currently living in. Many historians claim the Rockerfellers have engineered the crash of 1929 to be able to obtain a stronghold on America’s banking system. Congressman Charles A. Lindberg Sr. accurately proclaimed in 1930:

    “From now on depressions will be scientifically created.”


    We fly higher than weather
    And G5’s are better, You know me,

    “We fly higher than the weather” means that Jay-Z cannot be affected by the financial crisis because he is above the problem. He enjoys a protection that makes him unvulnerable to the storm. The fact that he says “WE fly higher than the weather” implies that a select few can have the same kind of privileges he has. G5 is a kind of private jet so he will live in luxury even when the crisis strikes the rest of the world.

    an anticipation, for precipitation. Stacked chips for the rainy day
    Jay-Z says here that he was expecting this major crisis (the precipitation) and so he has prepared financially to face it. Seems like he had prior knowledge of the events that would occur in the future. Is he talking about the recession that is happening now?

    Jay, Rain Man is back with little Ms. Sunshine
    Rihanna where you at?

    Jay aka “Rain Man”. He has been possessed by the Devil, contrarily to Rihanna, who he calls “little Ms. Sunshine”. Rihanna is the good girl. Jay-Z is already bad and he is asking Rihanna to join him.
    So Jay-Z lyrics have NOTHING to do with love, friendship or any type of relationship. His lyrics talk about an imminent economic disaster and the fact that he is prepared to face it.

    Rihanna’s lyrics

    You have my heart
    And we’ll never be worlds apart
    May be in magazines
    But you’ll still be my star
    Baby cause in the dark
    You can’t see shiny cars
    And that’s when you need me there
    With you I’ll always share


    Rihanna sings this part, but it is actually the Devil talking to Rihanna. He is “sweet-talking” her so she can accept the idea of the Devil entering her body. Here’s how we can translate the lyrics.
    I love you
    Even if I’m not from your world, I’ll never be far from you
    You may be famous and in magazines
    But you’ll always be MY star, nobody else’s
    Because when you won’t be successful anymore
    When you won’t be able to buy shiny cars and material things
    That’s when you’ll need my protection
    With you I’ll always share my riches

    So the Devil is offering Rihanna a lifetime of riches and luxury, even when she’ll lose her popularity and stop generating money from her singing carreer. Tempting isn’t it?

    Chorus

    When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
    Told you I’ll be here forever
    Said I’ll always be your friend
    Took an oath I’ma stick it out till the end
    Now it’s raining more than ever
    But we’ll still have each other
    You can stand under my umbrella
    You can stand under my umbrella
    (Ella ella eh eh eh eh)
    Under my umbrella
    (Ella ella eh eh eh)
    Under my umbrella
    (Ella ella eh eh eh)
    Under my umbrella
    (Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)


    Translation
    When you shine from your success, we both profit from it
    I will always be part of you
    I will always be on your side
    I promised you I would protect you and I will do it as long as necessary
    Now the financial crisis is afflicting the world
    But I’m still here with you
    You can be under my protection
    You can be under my protection

    What’s up with the Ella Ella eh’s? It sounds catchy doesn’t it? The repetitive and hypnotic rhythm of this chant makes it very reminiscent of magical spells, conjurations or summons. It invokes the god “El”, short for “Elohim”, also known as Ba’el (the Master) an important figure in occult mythology. According to famous occultist Francis Barrett, Ba’el has the power to make those who invoke him invisible and he can make people wise. Does “Ella” backwards sound a little like Ba’el?

    2nd Verse

    These fancy things, will never come in between
    You’re part of my entity, here for Infinity
    When the war has took it’s part
    When the world has dealt it’s cards
    If the hand is hard, together we’ll mend your heart

    All of your material possessions will never separate me and you
    You’re part of my entity, I own you, until the end of times
    When the crisis has ravaged the world
    When we’ll know the final outcome of the world
    If you’re in trouble, me and you will stop the pain


    “You’re part of my entity” is very relevant here because “entity” is not a word in the vocabulary used between loved ones. Nobody will say to his/her lover “You’re part of my entity”. An entity is not human.

    An entity is something that has a distinct, separate existence, though it need not be a material existence.
    -Wikipedia


    “Here for Infinity” also gives a non-human feel to the lyrics, as if this power doesn’t live or die, it is immortal.
    “When the war has took it’s part/ When the world has dealt it’s cards” is a particularly gloomy passage. It basically predicts a terrible event that will strike severly the entire world and that will rearrange the way it will fonction afterwards. Once again, we refere to a huge crisis that is about to occur and the Devil is trying to convince Rihanna to let her protect her.

    Bridge

    You can run into my arms
    It’s okay don’t be alarmed
    Come into me
    There’s no distance in between our love
    So go on and let the rain pour
    I’ll be all you need and more
    Because


    This part is actually a dialogue between the Devil and Rihanna. It is difficult to notice because there’s not difference in the tone of voice. The video however gives a visual clue of the dialogue by reversing the image when Rihanna answers the Devil.

    [​IMG][​IMG]

    So, the Devil is telling Rihanna
    “You can run into my arms
    It’s okay don’t be alarmed”

    translation:

    “You can come and seek my protection
    Don’t be scared of the crisis”


    Rihanna answers
    “Come into me” as in “come inside of my body and possess me”

    Both Rihanna and Devil say
    “There’s no distance between our love” . The Devil is effectively now INSIDE of her, there’s no more distance between them.
    And the Devil finishes by saying:
    “So go on and let the rain pour
    I’ll be all you need and more”

    translation:

    Let the world get what it deserves, I’ll take care of you.
    So now that you probably gained another perspective on the song’s lyrics, we can proceed to analyze the video, which carry HEAVY symbolism and confirms the theory of the Devil trying to possess Rihanna. The video also adds a layer of interpretation by depicting the process of possession as a rape.

    Analyzing the video

    [​IMG]
    At the beginning we see Jay-Z with six black-clad women. As previously stated, Jay-Z is already possessed in the song. The six women represent Jay-Z’s thoughts being controlled.

    [​IMG]
    Then we see Rihanna dressed in black and wearing a top-hat, a visual clue to represent the evil entity, which is masculine. The long, claw-like fingernails give a sense of a demonic, ungodly creature. When Rihanna starts singing, she moves in sexually seductive way to reflect the Devil’s attempt to seduce Rihanna. He wants to possess her not only mentally but physically also.

    [​IMG]
    The picture above is the explosion we see in the video right after the first verse. This explosion of chrome-colored liquid represents something truly disturbing: the rape of Rihanna by the Devil.

    [​IMG]
    The picture above represents the rape of Rihanna. Dressed in white and thus embodying “the good girl with values”, Rihanna dances while performing defensive gestures. She is trying to protect herself from the chrome liquid, which represents the seminal fluid of the Devil. The liquid hits her a total of 6 times.

    [​IMG]
    We then see Rihanna naked, covered in chrome-colored liquid. Rihanna has been raped by the Devil and covered with his semen. She seems in pain and not herself. On the picture above we see her inside a triangle. This is VERY symbolic. For occultists, an upwards triangle represents the phallus, the penis, male energy. Rihanna is inside the triangle. She is completely “owned” and under the spell of the Devil’s sexuality.

    [​IMG]= [​IMG]
    Look closely at the frame above. It appears very briefly at around 2:46 in the video. It is Rihanna on her knees, her head on the floor. It’s also something else: the FACE OF THE DEVIL! It has been made to look like “Baphomet” (see image), who is an intricate part of occult mysteries. You see the two eyes, snout and the long horns. This frame has been digitally manipulated to look like this because it is anatomically incorrect. No human can assume this position in real life. This image has been placed on purpose and only for a fraction of second. Classic subliminal message.
    So Rihanna has been raped and we saw the face of the Devil, so what’s next?


    [​IMG]
    Rihanna has now become the “Bad Girl” dressed in black. She is surrounded by 6 black clad men (like Jay-Z at the beginning), to represent her state of possession. She dances suggestively with a closed umbrella, which represents a phallus. The Devil has won, he has taken over Rihanna. And she is asking for more. At the end of the song, Rihanna asks her rapists to come into her again. Sick.

    It’s raining
    Ooh baby it’s raining
    Baby come into me
    Come into me
    It’s raining
    Oh baby it’s raining


    The “ooh baby” makes it clear that we’re not talking about raindrops falling from the sky. It means she is wet and ready to welcome the Devil again inside her.
    The analysis of Rihanna’s Umbrella was to prove the fact that the general public is blind to the hidden messages omnipresent in mass media. Kids from all over the world sing and dance to this song while registering unconsciously the hidden layers of symbolism.
    Here’s the follow-up single of the “Good Girl Gone Bad” album. The second video picks up where Umbrella left. I’ll let you interpret it yourself.

    Bum-bum bi-dum bum-bum-bi dum dum is a repetitive, hypnotic magic spell cast on you!
    Bum = A bum, a hoboe
    Bidum = Be dumb
    Bum bum, be dumb, bum bum be dumb dumb. — Be stupid, stop thinking and let yourself become possessed.

    Wow. I'm sorry, but this is really silly. The idea that Rihanna is trying to convey evil messages in her songs is absolutely ridiculous. This is nothing more than someone (or group) trying to take evil connotation out of a song to help move their religious agenda forward. This is pure bullshit.

    Whoever wrote this is attempting to make every word and phrase in the entire song about the Devil. What gets me is the last part
    Are you kidding me? Talk about making something out of absolutely NOTHING!

    Oh, and I highly doubt that the video producers sit around and conspire ways to make the video have hidden satanic messages. But that is exactly what this is, a conspiracy. Silly conspiracy theorist.

    Seriously?
    It's a song...

    If Rihanna really was posessed by the devil, she would've kicked Chris Brown's ass into next year for laying a damn hand on her.

    I call this someone with too much time on their hands.

    By the way... in slang 'to make it rain' means 'to make you ejaculate'.
    Therefore at the end of the song when Rihanna sings 'It's raining... oh baby, it's raining', she's really saying 'I'm cumming... oh baby, I'm cumming'.
    That part alone proves that the song is for sexual relations and NOT the devil.

    One more thing... the follow up single wasn't Disturbia.
    The follow up single was 'Shut Up and Drive' I believe.

    Now I know why I don't hang out in 'chit chat'...

    I wouldn't worry about all of this. Someone spent a lot of time making sens out of something that wasn't there.
