The absence of new music has kept Rihanna fans (affectionately called #TheNavy) spinning her older hits to tide them over until official news of a fresh wave of tunes arrives.

No further evidence of this is needed than the January 28 announcement provided by the Recording Association of America (RIAA) which saw them unveil a slew of new certifications for the songstress comprised mostly for work found aboard her latest album, 2016’s ‘Anti.’

We’re sure it’s not a coincidence the report dropped on the project’s 7th anniversary.  Details inside.

At writing, only 81 acts in the history of recorded music can boast having earned 20 or more Gold records over their careers. The  certification threshold denotes sales equivalence of 500,000 in the United States.

And while some assume the feat is easy to accomplish given the inclusion of streaming in the Recording Industry Association of America’s (RIAA) certification tabulations, it’s still one that’s eluded Black female performers as they represent less than 10% of aforementioned tally of hitmakers.

This week, thanks to the ongoing success of Jhené Aiko‘s 2020 tune ‘A&B,’ the score increased for the ladies.

Just hours after unveiling their fourth studio album, ‘Gloria,’ singer-songwriter Sam Smith is looking to give fans yet another reason to cop the critically acclaimed set by lifting the lid on the high octane music video for its housed cut, ‘I’m Not Here to Make Friends.’

The Disco-Pop track, produced by Calvin Harris (who Smith previously collaborated with on the 2018 hit ‘Promises’) and written alongside StarGate and Jessie Reyez, ‘Friends’ sees its performer make clear to suitors what their intentions are before the night is over.

“‘Cause I’m not here to make friends / No, I’m not here to make friends (Yeah) / ‘Cause I’m not here to make friends / I need a lover (I need a lover),” Sam croons on the cut which also features vocals from RuPaul.

In its accompanying music video, helmed by Ukrainian director Tanu Muiño, Smith – alongside a bevy of hot dancers – rocks the roof off of a historic estate with a costume ball while donning the hot pink gown they were seen in on Saturday’s episode of ‘SNL’ (January 21).
