Rihanna is causing concern among her fans after mentioning the possibility of retiring and stepping away from music. In a recent speech, the singer stated that although music made her famous and opened many doors, she believes that God has other plans for her future. This has led to worries that she may not complete her much-anticipated ninth album, and some fans fear that she may never release new music again.

Although she hasn’t released new music in a long time, Rihanna remains a unique and irreplaceable figure in the international music scene. Her appearance at the 2023 Super Bowl was a sensation, with her performances of hit songs and the news of her pregnancy becoming hot topics on social media.

What frustrates many of Rihanna’s fans is the fact that she hasn’t released a new album in 8 years. Earlier this year, the 36-year-old was seen wearing a green t-shirt with the words “I’m Retired” on the front, further fueling concerns about her decision. However, Rihanna’s departure from music is due to her focus on her Fenty Beauty brand and other passions in the fashion and beauty industry. She has openly shared her love for the creative process in these fields.

While some fans expressed anger and disappointment, others urged people not to pressure Rihanna. One fan commented, “I know everyone is a big fan, but stop pressuring Rihanna about music. She said she’s done with that, and I admire this woman. She stopped at her peak and is now growing to do other things.” 

It remains unclear what the next step in Rihanna’s career will be, as information continues to shift. Earlier this year, she reassured fans by revealing that she would begin working on a new album. She also denied rumors of retirement related to the t-shirt with the controversial message.
