Rihanna recently partied with her fans at a company event on her home island of Barbados. In a circulating clip of her thank-you speech, she spoke about how music led her into the industry.
âMusic was the thing that got the attention, but God had other plans for me, and I was able to create in ways that were very sincere, genuine, organic and authentic to the things that I love. So it doesnât even feel like a job, but when you bring it home,â Rihanna said in the short clip.

I truly donât believe Rihanna will be able to top Anti. It was a masterpiece, and the best album of her entire LONG discography. Perfect way for her to wrap up her music career, and I wish yâall would just let it be. Sheâs done enough!

I want yâall to NEVER ask Rihanna about music again! Her passion is beauty ok! pic.twitter.com/05WeVex8Km

The navy need to accept already the fact that sheâs not a singer anymore, sheâs a business woman who WAS a singer.

I donât understand why no one sees that this version of Rihanna is her effortless beautiful authentic self, and her as a music artist was a product packaged by a record label and its machinery. Asking her for music is like asking Victoria Beckham to go back to being a Spice Girl! https://t.co/2aiB7wsphq

I guess thatâs it. Rihanna has officially retired from music. My day is ruined https://t.co/eqSk6y5MAT pic.twitter.com/DZaFRWkUAh

If Rihanna released music now I donât even think the younger generation would give af. Her dropping music would be out of passion or for older fans and she clearly donât want to nor care to.

Rihanna Previously Said Has Enough Content For An Album
In April, Rihanna hyped the fans after she suggested an album was still a possibility. She revealed that she already has âstuffâ she can âmake hits out of.â Still, she didnât offer any hints about when that album would become a reality for fans to support. However, she shared that her sons, RZA and Riot, might have features on the project.
âMe and Rocky are really trying to figure out whoâs gonna use what,â Rihanna said, adding that the stuff is âso good.â
Rihanna hasnât offered any additional insight into her comments. But she recently reminded her fans of her Twitter troll days, though. Ahead of Trumpâs win, she dragged a couple of Instagram users who criticized her for speaking about the presidential election.
