Fans couldn’t contain their excitement as Rihanna returns to music after years

Pour it up because Rihanna is back! The Fenty Beauty founder has made her long-awaited return to music after several years with the release of Lift Me Up, the lead single for the soundtrack of Marvel's highly anticipated movie, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. According to a press release, the single was written by Rihanna alongside Tems, Ludwig Göransson and the film's director, Ryan Coogler. It also serves as a tribute to the life and legacy of the late Chadwick Boseman, who played King T'Challa in several MCU movies, including 2018's Black Panther. Sadly, the actor died in August 2020 at age 43 after privately battling colon cancer. "Lift me up / Hold me down," Rihanna sings on the opening of the moving ballad. Lift Me Up marks the first single in six years that Rihanna has recorded as a lead artist. With a new single, Rihanna has also been tapped to perform for the halftime show at the 2023 Super Bowl next February.
