Rihanna may not have released music in a moment, but it goes without saying that the megastar is the moment. Seemingly ever and always.

One of the key moments the 34-year-old is keen to chronicle most is her journey into motherhood. As such, she aptly covers the March 2023 issue of British Vogue alongside her adorable baby son and partner ASAP Rocky. 

Beyond posing it up in the stunning Inez & Vinoodh lensed shoot, RiRi opens up for what serves as her most candid interview in quite a while.

Dishing on a whole host of topics, the icon – who recently announced her pregnancy with her second child – discussed what it was like giving birth and the immediate aftermath of welcoming her son. She also lifted the lid on the layers of her relationship with rapper Rocky.

Elsewhere, Ms. Fenty spoke frankly about her somewhat last-minute agreement to headline the Super Bowl Halftime Show – a gig she reveals she agreed to just weeks before it was formally announced.

Naturally, attention turned to new music. Indeed, as widely known, Rihanna hasn’t released an album in seven years.

And, in a response that may give some fans a glimmer of hope, she revealed that she ideally wants the follow-up to 2016’s ‘ANTI’ to drop this year and even expanded on her sonic process as well as the hurdles causing the now prolific delay.

Lana Del Rey continues to share new music.

Case in point, she has just released the song ‘A&W’ from her upcoming album ‘Did you know there’s a tunnel under Ocean Blvd.?’

The track was produced by Jack Antonoff and lasts a total of 7 minutes 43 seconds. The song begins with jazz and folk influences before eventually transitioning into an electronic trap beat.

John Legend‘s latest opus, the September-released ‘LEGEND,’ not only stands as his first to miss the top 40 upon its Billboard 200 arrival but also gave his shortest stay on the chart to date (1 week).

In a bid to get the critically acclaimed set back in front of the masses, the EGOT winner lifted the lid on a “remix” album of sorts by presenting a collection of piano-only renditions of 10 of its tracks. Called the ‘Solo Piano Version,’ the project also boasts two covers: one of Simon & Garfunkel’s ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’ and the other of Sade’s ‘By Your Side.’

Speaking on the set, John said the revamped record is reminiscent of his favorite type of live shows: intimate and stripped back.

” I think my fans like it, because it strips the songs down to their essence and they hear my voice, the lyrics, the melodies really purely,” he shared with Billboard.
