Rihanna is working on new music, according to statements from her partner, rapper A$AP Rocky. In reports from BBC News and RTE News, Rocky says Rihanna is “in the studio” and that she is “cooking” or “working” on new material. Both outlets frame the comments as an update on the singer’s current activities, rather than providing details on any specific release date or the content of new songs.
The BBC notes that Rihanna last released a full album in 2016, highlighting the gap since her most recent long-form project. Neither source provides information about production partners, an expected album cycle, or whether the work is for an album, singles, or another format.
The statements are presented as coming directly from Rocky and reflect that Rihanna is currently recording or developing music. As of now, there are no additional confirmed announcements from Rihanna herself in the reports summarized here.
