Fans ofDiamonds singer have waited five years for the hitmaker to release new music in the wake of dropping Anti in 2016. 

A year ago in March, the singer released a collaborative song,Believe It, with Canadian singer-songwriter PARTYNEXTDOOR which topped many charts for consecutive months. However, RiRi’s fans are frantic for her to drop a solo hit.

Previously, the nine-time Grammy winner has released songs with top artists such as Canadian rapper Drake, Trinidadian rapper Nicki Minaj, and American rappers Eminem and Jay-Z.

While she hasn’t currently been delivering new music, the mogul has been zeroing in on other undertakings in the course of recent years, including her lingerie line Savage x Fenty, and make-up and skincare brand Fenty Beauty.
