Rihanna to release Black Panther: Wakanda Forever song this week

Earlier this month a couple of rumours suggested that Rihanna has possibly recorded two new songs for the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack, and one of those two songs might soundtrack the end credits of the film.

Marvel Studios has since confirmed that Rihanna will appear on the soundtrack, with a teaser clip last night (25 October) that shows the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever title before using the "R" from Forever, which looks like Rihanna's signature logo, to tease something arriving this Friday (28 October).

The new song will mark Rihanna's first new music since appearing on PARTYNEXTDOOR's "Believe It" in 2020, and will be her first solo outing in nearly seven years, since her 2016 Anti album.

Rihanna announced last month that she'll headlining the next Super Bowl half-time show in February 2023. It's also been reported that Rihanna may head on a stadium tour after the Super Bowl show, but that's yet to be confirmed too.
