Riri’s return to the music fold has been raucous, to say the least. Already, the Wild Thoughts songstress has been booked for the 2023 NFL Halftime Show, an occasion she admitted to TMZ was nerve-wracking.
We were also treated to the exciting news that the new mom will be going on tour next year, the first concert experience she’s headlined since ANTI World Tour in 2016.
Now, on Friday, Rihanna’s cult-like supporters were, at last, treated to brand-new music from the Barbadian. On Lift Me Up, Rihanna pays tribute to the late Chadwick Boseman and sets the tone for what’s expected to be a teary affair in theatres. Lift Me Up was co-written by:
- Tems;
- Ludwig Göransson;
- Rihanna; and
- Ryan Coogler
