Rihanna covers the newest issue of Interview Magazine and she seizes the moment to keep it all sorts of candid about her long-awaited new album.

The Bajan-born belle has been building her business empire and has established a net worth to the tune of $1 Billion by way of Fenty Beauty, Savage Fenty, and more.

Still, fans have been salivating for a follow-up to 2016’s ‘ANTI’ LP.

And despite years of promises, the project – affectionately christened ‘R9’ by RiRi’s Navy – has yet to materialize.

Now, she’s opening up afresh about the status of the album.

Full story below…

Speaking with Mel Ottenberg, Rihanna said of her long-gestating project:

“I have a lot of visual ideas. 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, and I don’t have the songs for them yet, but maybe that’s the key, this time. Maybe the visual ideas are leading me to the songs that I need to make.”
