As Rihanna fans, affectionately called #TheNavy, impatiently wait for new music from the diva, they’re eating up anything she’s attached to in the process.  Case in point? Her feature on PartyNextDoor‘s ‘Believe It.’

The song, which serves as the latest single from his third studio album, ‘PARTYMOBILE’ (released March 27), is the first original material released by Rih since her guest spot on N.E.R.D‘s moderate 2017 hit, ‘Lemon.’

Making an impressive #23 debut on this week’s Hot 100, ‘Believe’s arrival’ marks the end of her longest break ever from the chart as she’s had a top 40 hit in every year since her 2005 debut up to 2017.  Of course, leave it to the Grammy winner-turned-fashion-icon to return in major fashion.

Look inside to see what historic achievement ‘Believe’ brings with it:

Before joining the cast of ‘Love & Hip Hop Atlanta‘, Rasheeda stood tall as an influential fixture in Atlanta’s thriving Urban music scene and supported the careers of newcomers who would go on to become globally recognised household name (see Ciara‘s ‘Goodies‘).

Unfortunately, recent years have seen her contributions to her culture diminished and overlooked by a new generation of spectators who know her primarily as being the long-suffering wife of fellow ‘Love & Hip Hop‘ cast member Kirk Frost.
