Reputed “Anti” artist Rihanna is reportedly in the studio, according to partner A$AP Rocky on the Jason Lee Podcast. Rocky told the host that the Barbadian star “is in the studio right now” and is “cooking” new music.
He clarified that the pair are not working on a double album, which had been a rumor in earlier months. Rocky added he would “get in trouble for this” if he revealed too many details about the project.
Since her last full album, Anti (2016), Rihanna has issued singles linked to film releases, most notably “Lift Me Up” for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, and has focused on her Fenty Beauty line and a lingerie brand. Forbes estimates her net worth at over a billion dollars.
The “music mogul” previously expressed optimism about a new album in a February interview with Harper’s Bazaar, saying she “finally cracked it” and that the wait was over. The rapper declined to comment on whether Rihanna and A$AP Rocky had married.
Fans are now buzzing about a potential return, hoping the pair’s collaboration could produce fresh tracks in the post‑Meta Gala era.
