Rihanna is trending on Twitter after the release of her first single in over two years. The track, titled “Numb”, was released on October 29th and is expected to be featured on her upcoming eighth studio album. Rihanna’s social media accounts have been teasing the new music for weeks, but it wasn’t until October 29th that fans got to hear the song. It’s currently unclear if “Numb” will be a part of a larger project or if it will stand alone as a single.

The singer hasn’t released an album since 2016’s Anti, which featured singles like “Work” and “Needed Me.” She did drop some new music earlier this year with Kanye West, but that was only one song.
