Barbadian singer Rihanna has been teasing her ninth studio album "R9" since 2018 and seems finally ready to drop new music. 

In a video shared on X over the weekend, fans caught up with the singer's partner A$AP Rocky while he was out and about in Paris and asked about the status of her upcoming album.

"She’s working on it," the 35-year-old rapper replied as he walked away.

On top of that, photos recently surfaced on the platform of Rihanna leaving Lendit Studio in Paris with her crew and choreographers. 

Rihanna, 35, released her last album, Anti, in 2016, and two years later, the multi-Grammy winner told Vogue that she was working on a reggae project. 

She then confirmed on Instagram that it would arrive in December 2019 and even teased fans with the possibility that the album already existed.

"Update: me listening to R9 by myself and refusing to release it," Rihanna captioned an Instagram video.

However, the album never arrived.

While Rihanna has yet to drop her ninth album, she has been busy with other projects, including her Fenty Beauty makeup brand and her Savage X Fenty lingerie line. 

She also performed during the Apple Music Super Bowl halftime show in 2023 and released her Oscar-nominated single, "Lift Me Up," from the 2022 "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" soundtrack, which marked her first song in six years.

As for her personal life, Rihanna welcomed two sons, RZA and Riot, with Rocky in May 2022 and August 2023.
