Rihanna official music video for the song ‘California King Bed’. ‘California King Bed’ is a song performed by Rihanna. Released as the fifth official single from Barbadian-singer Rihanna’s fifth album ‘Loud’ (2010), ‘California King Bed’ is a powerful slow ballad with hints of rock music in its style. The official music video for "California King Bed" was shot and directed by Anthony Mandler, who was also responsible for a number of Rihanna’s music videos such as ‘Hate That I Love You’, ‘Unfaitful’ and ‘Shut Up And Drive’. Mandler directed the videos for other singles from Loud including "Only Girl (In the World)" and "Man Down". For the video a custom-made 18-foot bed was created with a special design feature that would transport Rihanna from one side of the bed to another. The track is seen as containing one of Rihanna’s best vocal performances, the powerful ballad drawing comparisons to Fergie’s ‘Big Girls Don’t Cry’. The song ‘California King Bed’’ is a powerful rock ballad featuring on Rihanna’s 5th studio album ‘Loud’ which also contains the hit tracks "Only Girl (In the World)", "What's My Name?" (featuring Drake), "Raining Men" (featuring fellow R&B icon Nicki Minaj), "S&M", "California King Bed" and "Man Down". Emily Mackay of NME wrote that the song was a "inevitable big ballad with acoustic guitar (complete with audible string scrapes) soft piano keys and intimate melancholy, building into a massive power-balladish chorus", comparing the song to the track "If I Were a Boy" (2008) by American singer Beyoncé Knowles.
