At a celebration ringing in what she called “a new era in foundation for the brand,” RiRi had a chat with Extra about the “soft, luminescent finish,” of her new cosmetics products, that gives “a nice, glowy, natural-skin look.” Inspired by the “best golden hours in the world,” in Barbados.
But let’s be real — this is what you came for — a music update. Rihanna is very much aware that the masses have been pining for her beyond long-awaited next album. Noting that because of this, the follow-up to 2016’s ANTI, will be worth the wait.
“It’s gonna be amazing,” she said of what’s to come, that we still no nothing about. “It has to be, that is the only reason it’s not out yet. If I’m not feeling it and I’m not feeling like it represents the evolution, the time I spent away…There should be a show of growth, right?”
“I want to play, and I feel like music is a playground, and I want to have fun with it and show truly where I am at,” Rihanna said, adding that she only intends to collaborate with another artist if it’s “very intentional. I’ll know when I have the record.”
RiRi also recently spoke to ET about working on new music, sharing, “I already got stuff that I feel like I could make hits out of.” Revealing that her and A$AP Rocky are debating between who gets what, because “it’s all so good.”
