Some fans are also replying on Rihanna's "ANTIversary" post that should Rihanna finally make an album, she should just do a sequel to ANTI! Come on, Queen RiRi, we know you have hundreds of songs that's waiting to be released! (Image via X/@SeanySwae)

Some casual listeners also trolled Rihanna on her "ANTIversary" greeting. Saying that when she finally dropped her magnum opus, she went missing in action after.
"Homegirl really dropped arguably the best and most sonically interesting pop album of all-time and then poofed out of the music scene completely." - one X user said
Navies also pointed out that even if Rihanna is M.I.A in music, she proves her haters that she is *THE* Queen because her relevance to the music industry is still known and seen! (Image via X/@QueenRaelynR6)

Other fans are requesting for Rihanna to go back to the recording studio because they can't take it anymore—they NEED new Rihanna music!
"Robyn…. Put the makeup brush down and get in stu(dio). We are musically famished." - a Rihanna fan replied
Rihanna: 2025 and beyond
Sincemost fans are asking when is Rihanna going to release an album, well, hope for the best because she is STILL not yet announcing new music anytime soon.
Aside from music, Rihanna is also running her business as the head of Fenty, a beauty brand that is very inclusive to boys and girls, alike. Oh, and also, Rihanna has a Fenty x Puma sneaker collab this year, named Fenty x Puma Avanti LS.
In addition to being a fierce queen and SHEntrepreneur, Rihanna is also a doting mom of 2 to her kids, RZA and Riot, so yes, she's a busy mom and she got no time at all for a music comeback (JK. Pls, Rihanna come back and record some great bops).
Even if ANTI is already 9 years old, Rihanna's iconic songs from this album is still relevant and famous to this day, cementing her as one of the queens in the music industry.
