A$AP ROCKY GIVES RIHANNA FANS RENEWED HOPE FOR A NEW ALBUM: ‘SHE’S WORKING ON IT’
A$AP Rocky has offered Rihanna fans a beacon of hope that the singer’s extended hiatus from music might be coming to an end.
On Saturday (February 17), a Rihanna fan page on X (formerly Twitter) shared a video that sees Rocky posing for a selfie with a fan in Paris. Towards the end, someone is heard asking him to tell his longtime partner that fans are ready for a new album, to which he replies, “She’s working on it.”
If she does have a new album on the way, it would be the singer’s first full length release since her record-breaking, critically lauded 2016 project Anti, which was certified six-times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) last June.
As of January, Anti now holds the distinction of being the first album by a Black female artist to spend 400 weeks (over seven years) on the Billboard 200 albums chart and the fourth longest charting album by a woman in the chart’s history.
