Rihanna’s a song girl.

When asked by Complex during her FENTY x PUMA sneaker launch in Hollywood on Monday night what her album of the year is for 2023, the singer and entrepreneur responded, “Am I an album girl? Or am I a streaming single girl? She then named off two songs: Davido’s Timeless album cut, “Unavailable” featuring Musa Keys, and Tyler ICU and Tumelo.za’s song “Mnike."

During that same conversation, she described what her next creative chapter would look like.

"I'm in an era of discovery," she said. "And maybe it's rediscovery because so much is changing, and some things are fleeting. And some things are yet to be discovered, right? And I'm in the center of all of that."

She continued, "So I'm not on a landing yet, but I'm excited for what is to come because I have the feeling of what it is. But I can't put it into words, and I know the journey is going to be exciting of getting there. And that's not just with fashion or my daily routine... with music, all of it! I'm really excited to explore things right now."
