For some, it seems as if it has been forever since Rihanna started working on her eighth studio album, ANTi. Before the album came along, Rihanna was known for her yearly album releases that would see the light of day in November. That notion has clearly come to an end as it has been a lengthy three years and counting since the release of her seventh studio effort, Unapologetic. Not keeping fans totally out the loop, the singer has slowly but surely built up a momentum for what fans can look forward to as she revealed the LP’s album cover via a special art event, launched a interactive and mysterious journey with ANTidiary.com, and even went forth the announce her upcoming “ANTi World Tour.” Within the timeframe of these events, Rihanna still found herself in the studio putting finishing touches on the album and now has officially completed the body of work. If her “likes” via Twitter weren’t any indication, the Bajan beauty sent fans into a frenzy with a simple selfie.
