This news arrives as speculation about Rihanna's new LP ANTI is rife - Billboard cite "sources" that claim it could arrive any day now.
Earlier this week Rihanna teased the fact she had the album:

Sources told Billboard that the LP was pushed to avoid clashing with Adele's 25. As well as other artists releasing music, a massive $25 million deal with Samsung has "complicated" the album's release - the tech giants have sponsored the album's campaign and are sponsoring her upcoming live shows.
There were strong rumours that the LP was set to arrive on Christmas Day or Eve, but R8 never surfaced. It was announced last October at a high-profile exhibition in Los Angeles.
The album incudes already-released singles "American Oxygen", "FourFiveSeconds", and "Bitch Better Have My Money", and is set to be supported with a world tour.
ANTI is Rihanna's eighth record, and follows 2012's Unapologetic.
