Rihanna recently set the rumor mill ablaze while deejaying at a Fenty Beauty event in her homeland of Barbados. During her speech, she suggested that while music might have initially drawn her in, higher powers might have other plans for her. This comment had fans wondering if she’s seriously considering hanging up her microphone for good. Talk about a mic drop moment!
The superstar seemed to hint that her priorities may be shifting away from new music and toward her growing family life. Recent social media buzz is filled with fans interpreting her words as a farewell to the music scene. Many are joking about the possibility that instead of dropping her next album, she may soon be dropping her kids off at school instead! Will her next big release be a “Motherhood R&B” album?
Adding to the intrigue, Rihanna was recently dethroned by Taylor Swift as the richest female musician, with Swift’s net worth ballooning to $1.6 billion. Rihanna previously held the title with about $1.4 billion, mostly thanks to her successful Fenty Beauty and Savage x Fenty lines. So, whether she’s focused on entrepreneurship, motherhood, or some surprise career pivot, the world is waiting to see what’s next for the unstoppable RiRi.
