Multi-talented singer Rihanna has made a musical comeback like no other.
Rihanna today (25.10.2022) released her first track in six years titled ‘Lift Me Up’.
‘Lift Me Up’ is featured on the soundtrack of the upcoming Marvel sequel Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
The somber and powerful track is a tribute to the late Chadwick Boseman who played King T’Challa on the first Black Panther movie. As reported by The Sauce, Chadwick succumbed to Colon cancer in 2020 at the age of 43.
Tems, Oscar winner Ludwig Göransson, Rihanna and Black Panther director Ryan Coogler all have writing credits on the track.
The arrival of the song was announced earlier this week, preceded by a series of cryptic billboards around New York and a teaser post on social media, which included the forthcoming movie title appearing onscreen before highlighting the first “R” in “Forever.”
The Wakanda Forever soundtrack, produced by Coogler, Göransson, Archie Davis and Dave Jordan will be out next Friday (Nov. 4).
The make up mogul hasn’t released an album since Anti dropped six years ago, and spent two weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.
While she has yet to reveal any plans for a ninth studio album, Rihanna’s break from live shows is slated to end on Feb. 12, 2023, when she headlines the 2023 Super Bowl Halftime Show.
