Rihanna's new album: release date, tracklist & everything you need to know

Fans haven't pressure Rihanna for an album update in a while especially considering how busy she's been of recent with her business adventures. During the release of the Savage X Fenty Show Vol. 3 back in September, Rihanna gave an update on her forthcoming album saying:

"You're not going to expect what you hear. Put that in your mind. Whatever you know of Rihanna is not going to be what you hear. I'm really experimenting, and music is like fashion. You should be able to play. I should be able to wear whatever I want."

Here's all we know about the album so far...

In March 2021, Rihanna confirmed that the release of a hotly-anticipated new song will be coming "soon". The singer jumped in the comment section of an Instagram post celebrating her musical achievements over the years, responding to a fan asking about new music.

In July 2021, Rihanna was spotted filming what was reportedly a music video in New York City, with her boyfriend A$AP Rocky also seen on set.

During a promotional interview for Fenty Skin, Rihanna revealed that fans can expect her new album "sooner than [they] think".

She said, "Itā€™s probably going to be sooner than fans think but Iā€™m just going to leave that alone because Iā€™ve got enough stress and questions like, ā€œR9, whereā€™s the album?ā€ They donā€™t leave me alone. I havenā€™t neglected them, I still got you. Music is still my baby."

In September 2021, at the launch of her third Savage X Fenty fashion show, Rihanna confirmed that her new music is going sound "completely different" to her previous work.

"Youā€™re not gonna expect what you hear, just put that in your mind. Whatever you know of Rihannaā€™s not gonna be what you hear," she told AP.

"Iā€™m really experimenting, and music is like fashion, you should be able to play, I should be able to wear whatever I want and I treat music the same way. So, Iā€™m having fun, and itā€™s gonna be completely different."
