A$AP Rocky reveals Rihanna is 'cooking' new music in studio nearly a decade after her last album
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: A$AP Rocky has accidentally revealed that Rihanna is working on a new album after ten long years.
The pop icon’s last album ‘ANTI’ was released in 2016. Many have speculated that the Barbadian singer-songwriter did not create anything new because of her partner and their growing family.
A$AP Rocky says Rihanna 'is in the studio right now'
The businesswoman and Rocky are parents to three children — sons RZA and Riot Rose, and daughter Rocki Irish. The two have been together since 2021.
But the 37-year-old rapper clarified that he’s not to blame during an interview on 'The Jason Lee Show' posted Wednesday, August 5.
“Nah. She is in the studio right now. Yeah, I said it. Sorry, babe,” Rocky shared, before adding, “Bro, she’s working. She’s cooking, no funny s**t. Damn, I’mma get in trouble for this.”
Rihanna's 'Lift Me Up' earned her Academy Award nomination
Rihanna’s 2016 full-length project gave hits like ‘Work,’ ‘Needed Me’, and ‘Love on the Brain’. But since then, her fans have been waiting for her new album.
Though the mother of three has not released any new albums in years, she was still in the spotlight. In 2022, her song ‘Lift Me Up’ was featured in the film ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’, for which she received an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Song.
Rihanna had three children with A$AP Rocky from 2022 to 2025
Three years ago, she gave an electrifying performance at the Apple Music Super Bowl LVII halftime show and also made a major personal announcement, revealing she was expecting her second child with the record producer.
Rihanna also worked on her brands — Fenty Beauty and Savage X Fenty — in these years and became the mother of three children. The 38-year-old had her eldest in 2022, she welcomed Riot in 2023, and became the mother of Rocki Irish last year.
Rihanna shares video working inside her studio
Rocky’s comment came months ago; the ‘We Found Love’ hitmaker teased that she’s working on music again.
She posted a day-in-the-life video on her Instagram page, which showed her saying, “I have to go to the studio after this. And I have to make a Mardi Gras costume for my son after the studio … Longest day ever.”
The social media footage later also showed Rihanna in the studio, leaving her fans jumping with joy, with one user even saying, “Father lord on behalf of all of us I pray that song makes it out of the studio 😭😭😭.”
