Rihanna gave zero fucks.ĪNTI’s idiosyncratic and slyly psychedelic narrative divided critics and put some listeners on edge, especially those waiting for the EDM-infused, ready-to-hear formulated pop tracks so innate to Rihanna’s career. Questions flew around from every direction like stray arrows. Then, one day, after weeks of cryptic promotional videos and a confusing rollout, ANTI, Rihanna’s eighth studio album, was officially out. One day, the realm’s inhabitants entered a great famine, in which no new album came out for three long years. According to this tale, a Rihanna album was expected every year like Christmas, and such an album would provide radio-friendly club anthems so the people could survive throughout the following year. “That if it’s not better than that then it is not even worth it.” She acknowledged that attitude as “toxic.” “It’s not the right way to look at music because music is an outlet and a space to create, and you can create whatever,” Rihanna explained, before adding that it would be “ridiculous” if her new music wasn’t out by the end of the year.Legend has it that beyond Amazon Prime runway shows and make-up tutorial videos on Instagram, there lies a realm called Navy where an ancient tale is kept locked away. “There’s this pressure that I put on myself,” Rihanna said of her career after 2016’s Anti. The singer, who is the first female artist to have 10 songs reach 1 billion streams on the platform, reacted to the news on Twitter and Instagram with the caption: “Bad Gal billi … / wit no new album… / lemme talk my shit.” The mention of “no new album” was triggering for fans, but not for Nicki Minaj, who riffed in the comments: “Not Bad Gal billi / Poppin shit like a wheelie / I mean poppin like a pilly, like a really / Man Down ‘cuz she making a killy.” The last Rihanna spoke of a new album was to British Vogue back in March. Rihanna broke a Spotify record without having released new music in seven years (in her defense, she’s been busy), and we’re sorry to say it but we are never getting that new album.
