After releasing four albums consecutively from 2009-2012, Rihanna didn’t drop a new project in 2013.

While many consider her hiatus as a “break” from music, rumors are suggesting RiRi has already started writing and recording material for her 8th studio album.

In a recent interview with Hip-Hop Hollywood, DJ Mustard confirmed the rumors and also revealed he’ll play a huge role in the process. The producer plans to help the fellow Roc Nation artist dominate both the radio and club scenes with his trademarked hit-record friendly sound.
