Rihanna on potential new music: “I have a lot of visual ideas”
The singer and mogul appeared on the quilt of Interview magazine and talked about her profession and, yes, new music.
New music from Rihanna could also be on the horizon…sort of.
While the “Work” singer has yet to verify any specifics about new songs, she recently posted an Interview magazine cover story wherein she described her creative process, teasing what the new era might appear to be.
“I have a lot of visual ideas,” the singer said on her profile. “It’s weird. My brain works backwards now. Usually I have the music first and it leads me to all the visual possibilities, and now I have all these visuals.”
She added: “I don’t have songs for them yet. But maybe that’s the key this time. Maybe the visual ideas lead me to the songs I need to create.”
While Rihanna has definitely made a name for herself with audiences due to several singles, her Fenty Beauty empire and a massive Super Bowl halftime show, the singer’s last full-length project was eight years ago along with her album “Anti.” The album that marked a creative departure for Rihanna included hits reminiscent of “Work”, “Kiss It Better” and “Needed Me”.
In a conversation with interview editor Mel Ottenberg, the pop star also shed light on her personal life, motherhood and success with Fenty Beauty, per Hollywood reporter. “All I wanted or could imagine was motherhood,” she continued, reflecting on how she embraced the music industry. “I didn’t know how it would happen, but it’s the best part of my journey so far. Everything else was a surprise.”
