The world of music is about to change because Rihanna has spoken about his new album and, for the first time in a long time, it seems that he has done so without any acrimony. The former singer has just expanded her Fenty universe with hair products. Let’s not fool ourselves, she is still very focused on her business project. However, the one from Barbados has surprised with her latest statements, ones that give hope to fans who have been waiting for more than eight years for a new album from the artist who sang that of We Found Love.

At the Fenty Hair presentation, Rihanna spoke to the press. Of course, the question about her ninth studio album was immediate. At any other time, the businesswoman’s reaction would have been to make a joke, be sarcastic, or seem distant. However, her response was sincere, acknowledging that she wanted to start from scratch. “Music is being a new discovery for me. I’m rediscovering things,” she told ET. “I’ve been working on the album for so long that I put all that aside and now I’m getting everything ready to go back into the studio. Now I’m ready, I’m going to start”.
According to Rihanna, her plan now is to lock herself in the studio to make new songs that will later materialize into what is going to be #R9. However, he has also acknowledged that he is not going to dismiss some of the issues that emerged from that previous, long process. “I’m starting over, but I don’t want to neglect the songs I have. I want to go back and listen to things with new ears, with my new perspective and then seeing what I wear and what songs I’m still in love with,” RiRi explained.
A long wait
It has been eight years since Rihanna stopped being a fundamental part of the music industry. After the release of his album Anti and the subsequent world tour, the singer decided to take a hiatus, although she never officially announced it. Since then, the mysterious #R9 has been a constant topic of conversation. However, judging by his latest statements, it seems that we could be facing a definitive countdown to finally know and hear what is going to be the successor of Anti.
