Rihanna Claps Back At Troll Who Talks About Her Forehead

The singer told an Instagram commenter they weren’t “cute enough” to call her "forehead."

Rihanna gave one Instagram user a playful clapback after they demanded a new album from the singer.

The 9-time Grammy winner released her eighth and latest album, “Anti,” in 2016, but last week, one fan made it clear that they couldn’t wait any longer for Rihanna’s follow-up. On New Year’s Day, Wednesday, January 1, the singer and entrepreneur posted a festive reel, but one commenter was snarky in requesting new music.

“We want an album forehead,” the individual commented.

But the remark was too familiar for the “What’s My Name?” artist, who replied, “Listen Lorenzo! You ain’t cute enough to be calling me by my black name you dizzy f**k!”

Although the ‘Bad Gal’ has released singles “Born Again” and “Lift Me Up” as part of the ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’ soundtrack in 2022, she hasn’t released a proper album in nearly eight years. To say fans are getting antsy would be an understatement.

As Rihanna’s often asked about new music, in June, she told “Entertainment Tonight” that she’s planning to restart the recording process of her next album, otherwise known as “R9.”

In explaining that she was “starting over” in the video below, Rihanna added, “I don’t want to neglect the songs that I have, so I actually want to go back and listen to stuff with new ears, with my new perspective and then see what applies and what I’m still in love with.”
