Rihanna and A$AP Rocky Collab In Film Noir Fenty Skin Campaign
Rihanna plays a beautiful thief and A$AP Rocky portrays an unexpected man looking for the “blazer bandit” in a short video called “Born To Steal: Yours, Mine, Ours.” The film noir inspired short starts off with a voiceover of a man describing RiRi’s character, “She was a classy dame, but she had odd ways of showing her affection.” The video promotes Rihanna’s Fenty brand.
“Although the female’s choices are endless, she borrows from the male for her camouflage,” the voiceover continues, as Rihanna is seen “borrowing” a blazer from A$AP’s closet. “The more savage of the species, the females are known to hoard from the unsuspecting males.”
Besides blazers, Rihanna’s character also loves to steal pancakes, covers and Lux Balm, the latter being Fenty Beauty’s newest offering.
A$AP’s voiceover then begins saying that while Rihanna can steal his things he can’t steal hers until they share the Lux Balm.

A$AP Rocky Confirms Rihanna Is Working On A New Album
In a video shared on X (formerly known as Twitter) last week, the “Fashion Killa” rapper was seen with a fan who asked about RiRi’s long-awaited album, which fans dubbed R9.
“She’s working on it!” A$AP says, smiling and walking away. The fans began screaming with excitement over the news.
The last time Rihanna gave us an update on the album was last February when she and A$AP posed for British Vogue with their son RZA. In the cover story, the “Diamonds” singer teased that she would drop an album in 2023, which didn’t happen. However, she did give insight into her feelings towards creating new music. She praised Anti, which dropped in 2016 and was nominated for eight GRAMMYs, as her “most brilliant album.”
“I didn’t realize it. But it always felt like the most cohesive album I’ve ever made,” she said.
Music hasn’t been Rihanna’s main focus over the past few years as she took on business ventures that have been successful, such as her makeup and skincare lines Fenty Beauty and Fenty Skin, lingerie line Savage X Fenty, and she even returned to Puma as a creative director to bring back her Creeper Phatty collection. Rihanna hit billionaire status in 2022.
