This week, Riri will be releasing a new track that will be featured in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

The big story started brewing on Tuesday, when the official Instagram accounts for Marvel and the Black Panther sequel got everyone chatting with a tantalizing clip that had an elusive clue in it.

The audio-less video showed the film's title and for a few seconds the first "R" in "Forever" popped out to become sole, yet brief, focus of the clip.

Right off the bat, fans surmised that the "R" stood for the Bad Gal singer herself. And the assumptions were correct!

On Wednesday, Rihanna not only confirmed the exciting news on her IG page but she also dropped the name of the upcoming single.

Rihanna's long-awaited return is here!

In the clip RiRi shared, the singer can be heard softly crooning in the background while the same "R" features alongside and Wakandaian letters on both the left and right sides of the screen.

The new mom captioned the post, "lift me up 10.28.22"

The end of Rihanna's years-long hiatus from music coinciding with the hype surrounding the Wakanda Forever is a spectacular treat for everyone. The superhero flick is already expected to be the best Marvel film of the year.

Now with RiRi contributing her lavish vocals to the film's soundtrack, we might just be talking about movie of the year, period!
