The singer's last studio album, Anti, was released in 2016. Since then, Rihanna has focused on her business and personal life. Her cosmetics brand Fenty Beauty has become an international project, and the Savage X Fenty lingerie line has solidified her position in the fashion industry. Despite the hiatus in releases, the singer has previously noted that she continues to work on new material. In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar in 2025, she stated that she had not stopped writing songs since the release of Anti, but did not specify a timeline for a possible release. In recent years, Rihanna has also become a mother of three children with rapper A$AP Rocky. The couple rarely shares details about their personal life, preferring to maintain privacy. So far, there have been no official announcements regarding a new album or single. However, the artist's appearance in the studio has heightened expectations among fans who have been waiting for a full musical comeback for several years.
