Rihanna will release a new album in November, according to an apparently premature announcement by her French label. Def Jam France posted and then deleted a tweet saying that the singer's new single is out on Monday, with her seventh LP to follow.
Benjamin Galouye, one of France's top DJs, also vouched for the news: "Rihanna will premiere a new single on Monday (morning in the US)," he tweeted.
"First track of her forthcoming album, due for release in late
November." In French he added: "Excited to finally be able to talk about
the new Rihanna. After 10 days of silence. To the officials who are
reading: I waited like I promised, eh? #GoodBoy." After removing its own
Twitter message, Def Jam France said to expect an announcement regarding Rihanna on Thursday.
Last
week, the 24-year-old shared lyrics for what is presumably her new
single: "You and I … We're beautiful like diamonds in the sky!" And she
announced the Diamonds tour, beginning next spring. According to
reports, dance producer David Guetta has once again been working with
the singer, as have Ne-Yo, Labrinth and Fazer.
A 2012 album
would be par for the course for Rihanna, who has released six
full-lengths in the last six years. The latest, Talk That Talk, came out
in November 2011. It topped the UK charts and has sold more than 3m
copies to date.
