During her event for the launch of her Fenty X Puma Creeper Phatty Earth Tone shoe, Rihanna shared that she’s been working on some new music in regards to her 9th album R9. While not giving away too many details of the matter, she called her new songs “so good.”
“I already got stuff that I feel like I can make hits out of, really.” She said. “Me and Rocky are really trying to figure out who is going to use what.”
When asked of the release date for the album, she jokingly said “I wanna know, too.” When speaking of her creative process for the album back in February with she shares that her visuals came first before the music.
“It’s weird. My brain is working backward right now. I usually have the music first, and the music leads me into all of these visual opportunities, and now I’m having all of these visuals.”
She continued, “But maybe that’s the key, this time. Maybe the visual ideas are leading me to the songs that I need to make.”
