“We understand that we have hurt many of our Muslim brothers and sisters, and I’m incredibly disheartened by this! I do not play with any kind of disrespect toward God or any religion and therefore the use of our project was completely irresponsible!” Rih went on saying, promising that this kind of thing would not happen again in the near future. “Moving forward we will make sure nothing like this ever happens again. Thank you for your forgiveness and understanding.”

Rih previously faced backlash fans noticed that one of the songs played during her fashion show, “Doom”, contained a hadith explaining the end of the times. Those who were not having it were quick to criticize the “Umbrella” singer, with one saying, “The fact that the song is called ‘Doom’ & the hadith is about the end of times? @rihanna, you’re cancelled I don’t care.”
Meanwhile, another person pointed at the fact that Rih used to date Hassan Jameel to attack her, “she dated a saudi guy for years ! the hadith she used is about doomday when the song is called doom … TRY AGAIN. rihanna f**ked up.” One other told Rihanna to use her own songs rather than the controversial track, “hey rih why did u choose doom song for your show???It’s hurt to know that. Your songs are amazing and have nice lyrics. It’s better to play ur own songs than THAT DOOM.”

AceShowbiz – Rihanna held her second Savage x Fenty show over the weekend, though it didn’t end without controversy. The singer and entrepreneur has been accused of appropriating Islam for using a song that contains a narration of a hadith during the show.
The song is called “Doom” and created by a London-based producer named Coucou Chloe more than two years ago. Coucou herself previously admitted to remixing an audio that turned out to be a hadith explaining signs of the day of the judgement and the end of times for the song. She wrote at the time, “For those who were wondering what were the vocal samples – I didn’t make the vocals on this one as you can easily guess,” providing a YouTube link to the hadith narration.

The Fenty beauty mogul talks about her next studio installment, saying she just wants to have fun with her new music as the world looks bleak and ‘everything is so heavy.’
Oct 5, 2020
AceShowbiz – Rihanna’s long-awaited new album will be a moment of relief for fans following a “heavy” year.
Fans have been longing for the “Work” hitmaker’s forthcoming ninth album ever since the release of her 2016 effort “Anti”, and she’s not shied away from teasing the release while keeping from sharing too many details.
Speaking to The Associated Press following her “Savage x Fenty Vol. 2” event earlier this week (ends04Oct20), she revealed she’s looking at tracks that are upbeat for the record.

After hosting “tons of writing camps” for the album, she’s asking herself, “What do I feel personally? What do I want to put out, and as an artist, how do I want to play it with my art? How do I want to interpret that? How do I want to reimagine it? Because it’s been so structured before.”
“You do pop, you did this genre, you do that, you do radio, but now it’s just like, what makes me happy?” she adds. “I just want to have fun with music. Everything is so heavy. The world that we live in is a lot. It’s overwhelming every single day. And with the music, I’m using that as my outlet.”
While RiRi is currently focusing her energy on her fashion brand, rumors of her new album have been flying around on the internet. Earlier this year, she was reported to reunite with her frequent collaborator Eminem for a new song.
Late last year, she posted a clip of a dog bobbing its head to House of Pain’s classic hit “Jumping Around” as she joked, “Update: me listening to R9 by myself and refusing to release it.”

The ‘Love the Way You Lie’ singer announces that her skincare line, Fenty Skin, will be available for purchase starting from July 31, posting a video of her applying some of the products.
Jul 15, 2020
AceShowbiz – Rihanna has something new to offer to her fans, but it’s not new music. The singer and makeup mogul announced on Tuesday, July 14 that she would be releasing a skincare line called Fenty Skin, prompting many to get upset because what they really need from Rih right now is her new album.
The announcement was accompanied with a video of Rih washing her face with the upcoming line’s facial wash. She then followed it up with several other products. In the caption of the post, the “Love the Way You Lie” singer revealed that her skincare line would be available for purchase via her website starting from July 31.
Some people were excited and looking forward to buying the products, while some others did not. Instead, they were upset that Rih decided to release a skincare line when what they were all waiting for the most was her new music. “This ain’t what we asked for Pooh,” one told her in the comment section. “But can I wash my face while I listen to some chunes? NEED NEW MUSAK,” another said, as one other sarcastically wrote, “she releasing everything but music.”
“This b***h will soon make oxygen, but no f**king songs ugh what a life,” an individual quipped, with someone else echoing the sentiment, “Releasing everything BUT Fenty Music. But do you sis!” Another person said, “This b***h will really drop anything OTHER than music.” One other fan was just as disappointed as the rest, “why does she refuse to give us fenty music.”
People have been eagerly waiting for Rih to release new music ever since her 2016 album “ANTI”. She previously promised that her new album would hit the stores in 2019, but it was eventually delayed. Addressing the delay in an interview, Rih said, “I don’t want my albums to feel like themes. There are no rules. There’s no format. There’s just good music, and if I feel it, I’m putting it out.” She added, “I can’t say when I’m going to drop. But I am very aggressively working on music.”

Seeing that the situation right now is not ideal to release a new album, the ‘Diamonds’ songtress reportedly has decided to concentrate on ‘becoming a beauty billionaire’ instead.
Jul 7, 2020
AceShowbiz – Rihanna is shifting her priorities amid the coronavirus pandemic that has greatly affected show business, including music industry. Seeing that the situation right now is not ideal to release a new album, the Barbadian songstress has reportedly decided to shelve plans for her ninth album to focus on her skincare business instead.
Reporting Rihanna’s alleged goal is The Sun (via Daily Mail). According to the British publication, its sources say, “Rihanna’s ninth album is on hold indefinitely. She wants to make her millions with beauty and is planning a new skincare line to go alongside her Fenty Cosmetics range.”
“Her lingerie range has gone down so well too that she feels she needs to strike while the iron’s hot,” the so-called insiders go on explaining. “Whenever she drops pics of her modelling the gear, sales go up.”
“Fans hopes for [a ninth album] will be kept on hold while Rihanna builds her beauty empire as she plots to become the next beauty billionaire,” the insiders further reason. “She’s realised there is more money in the beauty game than music as record sales die down and live touring faces big competition.”
The news outlet additionally claims that the “Umbrella” hitmaker, who is now based in England, has trademarked a new line called Buff Ryder to achieve her goal.
Reps for Rihanna have not responded to request for comment on the report.
Rihanna’s fans have been long waiting for her new album since she last released her eighth studio album “Anti” in 2016, often going to her Instagram posts to troll her about it. In 2018, she announced that she would release a new album by the end of 2019, but that didn’t happen.
The 32-year-old singer later hinted in December 2019 that she had been working on her new album. In March of this year, she surprise released “Believe It” with PARTYNEXTDOOR, marking her first new music since 2017, but her fans still wanted more.
