Everyone’s favorite pop icon, Rihanna, is making a much-anticipated musical comeback. It’s been nearly three years since she released new music. Fans are in for a treat with her involvement in the new Smurfs movie. She’s not just voicing Smurfette but also contributing significantly to the film’s soundtrack.
In a surprise twist, the big news was revealed at the end of the movie’s first trailer. The trailer ended with a splashy title card that announced: “The Smurfs Soundtrack featuring new music from Rihanna.” This cryptic yet exciting revelation has left fans eagerly waiting to find out how many songs she’s contributed.
But that’s not all! The movie’s soundtrack doubles down on excitement with the announcement that DJ Khaled and Cardi B are teaming up for a new song titled “Higher Love.” This collaboration promises to bring even more smash hits to the table.
Rihanna’s return to the music scene is more than just a professional move; it’s a gift for her fans who have been waiting since her 2016 album, ANTI. Although her 2022 release ‘Lift Me Up’ didn’t chart as expected, her talent remains undeniable.
Indeed, Rihanna has been dropping hints about her new work. Last summer, at a Fenty Hair event, she talked about restarting her long-awaited ninth album. She explained that she’s been rediscovering music and is prepared to head back into the studio.
She mentioned her intention to revisit some of her past works, showing a fresh perspective on her music. Rihanna hopes to merge her old favorites with new influences to create something she truly loves.
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Rihanna also hinted at some family involvement in her new music endeavor. When asked if her kids, RZA and Riot, would appear on the album, she left the door open, reflecting her willingness to explore new directions in her music.
While Rihanna has been away from the music scene, she’s certainly kept busy with her business empire, including her widely successful Savage X Fenty line. She’s also been deeply involved in her family life with A$AP Rocky, who she hopes to feature in her future projects.
Rihanna’s return to music, alongside heavyweights like DJ Khaled and Cardi B, promises something special for the Smurfs movie soundtrack.
