Rihanna takes ANTI World Tour to NYC's Brooklyn

Rihanna took her ANTI World Tour to NYC's Brooklyn last night (March 27).

Playing the Barclays Center, she segmented her concert into five distinctive parts with plenty of costume changes.

Performing a medley of her hits as well as full-length ANTI tracks, she told the crowd:

"Brand new tour, brand new album. This s**t is not that complicated."

Rihanna kicked off the concert with the ballad, 'Stay', from the back of the arena. She then went into 'Love the Way You Lie (Part 2).'

The concert proceeded to go more uptempo with 'Bitch Better Have My Money' and 'Pose'.

The middle section of the concert featured her pop hits including 'Run This Town' and 'Umbrella'.

The fourth section had Rihanna getting down to her Barbadian roots with 'Rude Boy' and 'Work,' as well as 'We Found Love' and 'Where Have You Been'.

The fifth section featured 'Love on the Brain.'

Last week, The Weeknd announced he had pulled out of his support slot for the ANTI tour in Europe. 

A Live Nation statement read: 'Due to some unforeseen changes with upcoming projects, The Weeknd will no longer be joining Rihanna on her upcoming international Anti World Tour.'
