Rihanna fans have been waiting for new music with bated breath.
And, oh, have they been waiting.
A brief return to the airwaves came with 2022’s ‘Lift Me Up’ – the anthem for Marvel’s ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.’
And then RiRi was announced as the headliner for this year’s Super Bowl Halftime Show – which she was seize to announce her pregnancy with her second child.
With baby Riot here and joining brother RZA, it looks like music may be back in the picture for the busy billionaire.
Full story below…
The Bajan belle was on hand at the Los Angeles launch of her Fenty x Puma collaboration and was quizzed on when she’ll be dropping fresh material and murmurs of a tour.
Speaking to ET‘s Kevin Fraizer, the 35-year-old said:
“We’re always gonna go back on tour. I wanna go back on tour when there’s new music, right? We already know what that’s gonna be. My last tour was a long time ago, I feel like it’s only fair that my fans get what they’ve been waiting on – which is new music. And after that, let’s just blow everything up.”

Her voice is shot. What kind of good music can she make sounding like a 60 year old chain smoker, billy goat hybrid?? Ma’am, hire a vocal coach before going back to the studio and put down the wèed.
