Rihanna gives update on new album and confirms it will be ‘unexpected’

Rihanna confirmed she is working on her ninth studio album, R9, the first in nearly a decade.
She stated the album will be "unexpected" and not typical commercial or radio-friendly music.
Rihanna has been working on the album for eight years, striving for a high-quality release that justifies the long wait.
Rumors suggest she may headline Glastonbury 2025, with potential London stadium shows shortly after.
In addition to music, Rihanna reflected on aging and her legacy, emphasising her focus on the present and making meaningful memories.
