Rihanna's first song in 7 years
If the rumors are true and if Apple Music single is part of a much-anticipated full album, it would be the first single from the 'We Found Love' singer in seven years since her 2016 critically-acclaimed hit 'Anti'. Since 2016, she has released limited new music, including appearing as a featured artist on PartyNextDoor's 2020 song 'Believe It' and released 'Lift Me Up', a tribute to actor Chadwick Boseman, the beloved star of 'Black Panther', reports Elle.
