Rihanna has revealed her new album Unapologetic is more "hopeful" and "fearless".

The 'Diamonds' singer was interviewed by Vogue and shot her second front cover with them for this month's issue.

When talking about her upcoming seventh album, in a behind the scenes clip for the Vogue shoot, Rihanna stated:

"When people listen to my new album I want them to walk away with a spirit of hope,"

"A light spirit. That's the place I'm in and I want them to see that and I want them to feel that."

When discussing the risqué album cover, which depicts the 24 year old singer naked and covered in writing, she proclaimed:

"I've gotten a lot more fearless, a lot free-er and a lot more comfortable with who I am.

"I've started to infuse that in my fashion as well as my music."

Unapologetic is released on November 19 by Def Jam Recordings.
