Her promo video on Instagram for the anniversary of Fenty is amazing though - as was her clapback to a fan asking her when new music is coming 😂 I'm sure she will deliver, whenever it may be.

Alesso revealed in an interview that Rihanna wants to make this a "dance-heavy album" and that she is planning to work with Calvin, Guetta, Diplo and Garrix for it. Diplo responded on Twitter by saying "the first rule of fight club is you do not talk about fight club".
Honestly I don't know what to believe/expect at the moment. Obviously I'd kill for another Calvin banger, especially with what he's been giving us this year but I still don't love their last collaboration as much as I should do. I don't think she's ever worked with Diplo before though (correct me if I'm wrong) so his tweet alluding to a collab is exciting but none of these artists point towards a reggae/dancehall album so... Guetta can stay away though! |

Diplo’s been wanting to work with her for years but she’s always turned him down maybe she’s finally given in? His sound is way more centred in reggae/dancehall than dance (except his most recent stuff) so that could work both ways.
I’d give anything for a full dancehall album 😭 |

Is anyone else half expecting Rih to drop this album out of nowhere? No official word on release date etc so far but I feel she'll Beyonce us either this month or next.

Tbh, as lovely as a surprise like that would be (and no complaints if it came out of nowhere today tbh ;o) the whole Beyonce thing has become so commonplace it's boring. It's come to the point where if we got a pre-order and lots of promo it would be refreshing af Beyonce's surprise album with Jay Z has hardly done amazing so it doesn't have the same effect commercially either. |

I think it’s coming next year tbh. ANTis release has probably made her think twice about the dropping out of nowhere style release.

I think it’s coming next year tbh. ANTis release has probably made her think twice about the dropping out of nowhere style release. Why would she be thinking twice? 'ANTI' spent 31 consecutive weeks in the top 10 of the US chart, spending 2 weeks at #1 (her only other US #1, 'Unapologetic', only spent 1 week there) and has been certified 3x Platinum. It's still charting in its 140th week on sale, more than 40 weeks longer than 'Good Girl Gone Bad', her second longest charting album. Just because it 'underperformed' in the UK doesn't mean it was a clip or she's going to change her release strategies. I think she will announce this album but there won't be a 2 month long build up to its release like most pop acts. Single then album a couple of weeks later would be perfect. |

yeah it's easier to forget how big ANTI was in the US because it underperformed over here!
She had three huge top 10 hits from the ANTI era over there too - more than Unapologetic and Talk That Talk! |

ANTI has done really well in the US, way better than I thought it would after the messy af roll out of it but in Europe it didn't do great, I think the 'surprise' release would've worked over here if FFS/BBHMM/AO didn't exist or there wasn't a huge gap but it felt like by the time ANTI came out there was no hype apart from the fans, even with Work smashing. Even though ANTI has excellent streaming on it's side when her other albums haven't had that, it still hasn't got platinum and I THINK (correct me please ) it'll take a while to get there as well. Obviously platinum isn't the be all and end all but it looks good to have I wonder if it's sold 100k pure sales, not that it matters a lot.

I was always under the impression that the US success was more because of streams if it was just based on just pure sales and downloads that ANTi would’ve been labelled an underperformance in the US too.
I think there’ll be a big campaign for this album in the opening weeks though. ANTi had some like she did do the Brits didn’t she put the Grammys got cancelled which could’ve been a big moment had that went ahead. |

That's not really a valid point either though because streaming is how most artists have successful albums nowadays. Even the Greatest Showman soundtrack has relied on streaming for almost 50% of its total sales. Anyway, Riri posted this hilarious meme on her Instagram: "i feel attacked. ***valley girl who’s never been attacked voice*** R9 chronicles." Come through <3 |

She posted a video of herself in a studio to Insta stories but wasn't so kind as to share the audio 💔 Still gagged by the visual though and how genuinely happy she looks recording again. |

I really hope the rumours of her having a song with XXXTENTACION aren't true .
