In a haze of smoke, Rihanna blessed us with a new video, "Just because it's 420." 

The "Needed Me" video is essentially a sequel to "Bitch Better Have My Money." In it, RiRi's assassin alter ego goes after a man who dared to wrong her. She wears a stunning sheer robe and looks out at the ocean, which belongs to her, as all things do.

The video is directed by Harmony Korine of Kids, Gunmo and Spring Breakers notoriety.

It's truly a gift, considering that RiRi dropped the "Kiss It Better" video just two weeks ago. The Navy really is spoiled by its benevolent leader.
