“I thought I would never see this moment again,” typed a fan, almost in tears, following Rihanna’s announcement that she’s releasing new music – “Lift Me Up.” the songstress dropped a short clip announcing the project and followed it up with the cover art, with the tile rendered in a couple of languages besides English. Last we checked, the post had been “liked” over 5 million times.
Around the world, relief is sighing in the heads of many of her fans, some of whom have been asking her for new music for a long time. Well, Bad Gal Riri says the wait is over, y’all. There’s something new for your listening pleasure. And best believe that it’s a resonant tune.
Rihanna’s lack of new music for a while – and the alleged indifference she had exhibited to calls for new projects – ended on a beautiful note, and her fans can’t keep calm. Who’d blame them? The Barbadian singer has long stolen the souls of her fans with great music.
Anyway, there is so much to love about her latest drop. “Lift Me Up” is a song that may lift you up. So you may as well create a place for it on your playlist.
Riri is back, and she bears the fiery energy of old.
