For the last few years, fans have been begging Rihanna to release a new album.  Although she has yet to reveal a title and/or release date, she did admit to Entertainment Tonight in February of 2019 that ‘she enjoys playing the guessing game with her fans.’  In reference to her her new album, Ri says, “To be continued.  I like to antagonize my fans a little bit. Well, they antagonize me, too! So, they get it right back.”  

 

 

 

On New Year’s Day, RiRi posted a stunning photo of herself standing by the pool, rocking a bikini top, laced-up heels and a wrap.  She then captioned the photo, “New Year’s resolution: apply the pressure.”  Fans wasted no time to ask about #R9 – one fan even commented,  “Resolution should be releasing the album.”  In true Rihanna fashion, she clapped back, “This comment is sooo 2019. Grow up.  2021 energy.”

During her interview with Vogue in fall of 2019, Rihanna shared a bit of information regarding this ‘new’ album, “It’s not gonna be typical of what you know as reggae. But you’re going to feel the elements in all of the tracks.  Reggae always feels right to me. It’s in my blood. It doesn’t matter how far or long removed I am from that culture, or my environment that I grew up in; it never leaves. It”s always the same high. Even though I’ve explored other genres of music, it was time to go back to something that I haven’t really homed in on completely for a body of work.”

 

Can we please stop bothering Queen RiRi now?!?!?!
