The Rihanna drought (might) be over! According to a new report from HITS Daily Double, RiRi is making her grand return to music very soon. There are reports that she’ll be on the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack. The “We Found Love” singer reportedly recorded two new songs for the highly anticipated Marvel film.

This is not the only report of RiRi being a part of the film. Back in 2020, rumors ran rampant that the singer would be cast in the Black Panther sequel but it was later confirmed by E! that she would not have a role in the film.

Well, if Rihanna didn’t already make our day. The beauty mogul is also gearing up for her Savage X Fenty: Vol. 4 will be on its way next month!  “The trailblazing event is raising the bar yet again with a new all-star lineup of models, actors, some of the biggest names in music, and more, debuting the latest Savage x Fenty styles,” a press statement reads per Harpers Bazaar. “A seductive fashion fever dream, this year’s show blends Emmy award-winning choreography, style, and music with the hypnotic essence of nocturnal nature.”

The singer also posted her excitement (and sexy teaser) to Twitter Friday, Oct.14.

Rihanna’s Savage X Fenty brand launched in 2018 with its prime focus on body inclusivity. This was in contrast to other retailers on the market at the time. This collection is expected to have a similar focus.

Vol. 4 is set is described as “an homage to self-expression and personal empowerment… featuring disparate textures, unexpected detailing, and unconventional proportions that come together seamlessly to create a boundary-bending xperience for everyBODY.”

Savage X Fenty will be available to watch on Prime Video on November 9 and we are crossing our fingers that Rihanna will be a part of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever which hits theaters November 11.
