We didn’t know it at the time but this was Rih’s goodbye to the music industry and her fans. The impact and legacy she has created and continues to create will live on forever. There will never be another @rihanna . We will forever keep music in our hearts. 2005-2016

I really don’t believe Rihanna can surpass Anti. It’s a masterpiece and the best album in her entire LONG discography. The perfect way for her to end her music career and I wish you would leave it that way. She has done enough!

I want you all to NEVER ask Rihanna about music again! Her passion is beauty! pic.twitter.com/05WeVex8Km

The Navy needs to accept the fact that she is no longer a singer, she is a businesswoman who IS a singer.

I don’t understand why no one sees that this version of Rihanna is her authentically beautiful, effortless self, and that she as a musical artist is a product packaged by a record label and its machinery. Asking her to play music is like asking Victoria Beckham to come back as a Spice Girl! https://t.co/2aiB7wsphq

I guess that’s it. Rihanna has officially retired from music. My day is ruined https://t.co/eqSk6y5MAT pic.twitter.com/DZaFRWkUAh

If Rihanna released music now, I don’t even think the younger generation would like it. Whether she puts out music is out of passion or for older fans and she clearly doesn’t want or care about that.

You’re about to turn 60 and you’re still crying over Rihanna’s music, stop it pic.twitter.com/rezPit2Wt7

I actually agree that Rihanna will never make music again

Rihanna has previously said there is enough content for an album

In April, Rihanna hype fans after she suggested an album was still a possibility. She revealed that she had “something” that she could “make a success of.” However, she did not give any hints about when that album will become a reality for fans to support. However, she shared that her sons, RZA and Riot, may have features in the project.

“Me and Rocky were really trying to figure out who would use what,” Rihanna said, adding that the stuff was “really good.”

Rihanna has not given any further details about her comments. However, she recently reminded fans of her Twitter trolling days. In the wake of Trump’s victory, she drew some Instagram users to criticize her for speaking about the presidential election.
