Rihanna is “working on” her long-awaited ninth studio album.
The “Diamonds” hitmaker’s partner A$AP Rocky — with whom she has sons RZA and Riot — has confirmed the Fenty Beauty founder is actively getting her follow-up to 2016’s Anti ready.
“She’s working on it,” the rapper simply replied in a viral clip when fans asked about the album.
Fans are still waiting for that all-important release date.
In December, the “We Found Love” singer declared she is in an “era of discovery.”
The Barbadian star isn’t entirely sure what her future will look like — but she’s still excited “for what is to come.”
“I’m in an era of discovery. And maybe it’s rediscovery because so much is changing, and some things are fleeting. And some things are yet to be discovered, right? And I’m in the center of all of that,” Rihanna told Complex.
“So I’m not on a landing yet, but I’m excited for what is to come because I have the feeling of what it is,” she added. “But I can’t put it into words, and I know the journey is going to be exciting of getting there. And that’s not just with fashion or my daily routine … with music, all of it! I’m really excited to explore things right now.”
The “Kiss It Better” singer also revealed that she’s “open to exploring” as she works on new music.
“Musically, I’m feeling open,” Rhianna shared.
“I’m feeling open to exploring, discovering, creating things that are new, things that are different, things that are off, weird, might not ever make sense to my fans, the people that know the music I’ve put out. I just want to play. I want to have fun with the music,” she added.
