Rihanna has remained all sorts of silent about her new album – much to the frustration of her fans.
This year marks four years since the Bajan belle released her eighth effort ‘ANTI,’ which managed to find its footing after a number of hiccups and false-starts.
In the time since, RiRi has established herself as a entrepreneurial force with her Fenty empire.
Still, this hasn’t quelled excitement for fresh material. If anything, the hiatus has heightened the buzz.
But despite promise of a 2019 release, there’s still no album.
With The Navy swarming any and every post their leader shares on social media, she’s finally responding.
Her words below…
Suffice to say, it appears Rih has reached the end of her tether.
That or she’s pulling the wool over eyes and R9 is coming sooner than folk may think.
Time will tell.
In the meanwhile, what are…
I rather wait for her to deliver a successful album campaign, rather than it be rushed and messy. Rihanna is dotting her “i’s” and crossing her “t’s”.
Plus this will probably be her last album for a while (her heads in other ventures now), so let’s make it good.
She’s definitely coming.
Rihanna (probably during the summer. It’s a reggae album, so it will be perfect for summer)
Cardi
Adele (after Grammy submission have closed, around September or October)
Beyonce
Demi
All these ladies are releasing project this year
Riri gon drop when she ready and we jus gonna have to wait. I appreciate her hustle.
Rihanna. I don’t know what to say. While I do think you can take as much time as you need because the album will be a hit regardless, but it feels like something is going on behind the scenes. And I don’t like these responses. These are your fans you’re talking to. You should be happy we’re all wanting more music from you. I love you Rih, but these responses aren’t it, Queen
I did read somewhere that she’s trying to get out of her record deal with Jay z. And is refusing to release the album until she does
I’m about to fight her! ? I blame all of y’all who said she needed to take a break. The Navy use to have it so good back when Rihvember was in full effect ?
Yup I always knew it wouldn’t last and that’s why I enjoyed it while it lasted, was a hell of a good time. Now we’re on the schedule of a prestige artist 4 yr waits and such.
But whatever my phone played “Drunk on Love” and it’s renewed my love for Talk that Talk so I’ve been listening to that like crazy.
It’s not going to end well for her if she keeps on trolling her fans
Something is telling me the hold up is to launch with a documentary style roll out with amazon or Netflix. I think with the amount anticipation for this album…her team sees the $ potential in not just the music but also the roll out.
I was hoping for her to completely skip any type of creative Roll-Out and just drop it without any videos or any lead ups. But I don’t think that will happen.
They don’t care about us!!!
HAVEN’T YALL PICKED UP YET THAT HER VOICE IS NO LONGER THE SAME, IT’S COURSER AND DEEPER, I THINK SHE’S HAVING TROUBLE WITH HER VOICE AND DONT WANNA REVEAL IT, AFTER ALL WHO WOULDN’T SPOIL THEIR VOICE OVER SMOKING!
They are doing the most. This world only want her for a moment! I’m with her enjoy your life, live your truth, eff di que “fans” look what they did to Nicki and Beyonce! You are BLACK!!! they only want to milk what they can than leave!
❤❤❤❤ Her?
She should tell people it’s Mariah Carey who she looked up to it was not Beyonce when she was Young…
TBH and no shade, she was making more BOPs when she was releasing an album every year, then when she wasn’t.
Well duh that’s the dumbest comment I ever reas
LMAO, funny and disrespectfull…. this is the result of the Navy not buying her tickets but $1 singles…
New music means she has to tour, why chase pennies when the other route has dimes…..
Even if your fave cant sing or perform live, show up and show out and hand them their money.
She should also lose the attitude.
She prolly is heartbroken. Or disillusioned with love at the very least. Tough to make music of the sun and soldier on to meet deadlines + expectations after a breakup. Add more retail line demands. And a rarely-disappointing creative process and you have a star wishing to receive “Take time to heal. We gotchu.” tweets instead of the Navy Penguins talking to her as if she’s Alexa. The Penguins should play their fave’s large catalog on Spotify while she makes this double sound as lucratively cohesive as possible!
“She’s having trouble with her voice”
What are you talking about? Her voice has been in trouble since day one. Sis took 8 albums before she learned to sing some notes on key. Why would she not release an album because of her voice? LOL!
LMAO As if she were Mariah or Celine.
RiRi is clearly over music and don’t give af about putting out an new album. RiRi is a great recording artist but when it comes to tours well that is another story. Besides her Fenty Beauty Savage x Fenty and House of Fenty makes her 10x than an album and tour will make her so I don’t blame her for not putting out new music.
She just isn´t a musician and has no passion for music. She was an it girl for commercial hits because of her exotic look and sexiness. End of story. Meanwhile real artists keep releasing and evolving and creating new and different projects (normally the ones with talent). She is better in the fashion world. She doesn´t have to move a finger regarding fashion. In music she has to go to the studio to record the songs they make for her. Music is harder LOL
Not as hard as it is for Mooriah and her non-existent voice nowadays
love her https://youtu.be/TzyYbtwtKgc
