It was my first pen pal\u2013ship to the world,&#8221; she shared. &#8220;To cut that off is to cut my communication off.

But you&#8217;re going to feel the elements in all of the tracks \u2026 Reggae always feels right to me. It&#8217;s in my blood. It doesn&#8217;t matter how far or long removed I am from that culture, or my environment that I grew up in; it never leaves. It&#8217;s always the same high. Even though I&#8217;ve explored other genres of music, it was time to go back to something that I haven&#8217;t really homed in on completely for a body of work.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Her new music might also include a few love songs, because the singer confirmed that she&#8217;s in a happy relationship. &#8220;Yeah, I&#8217;m dating,&#8221; she shared. &#8220;I&#8217;m actually in an exclusive relationship for quite some time, and it&#8217;s going really well, so I&#8217;m happy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But she didn&#8217;t just leave it there. The singer opened up about the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/1072910\/why-the-internet-thinks-rihanna-is-pregnant-with-baby-no-1?query=rihanna%20love\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">topic of having kids<\/a> too. &#8220;Without a doubt,&#8221; she revealed.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-4\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"58.730590062112\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"12.414596273292\">\n<p>Rihanna is also feeling a responsibility&nbsp;to speak up for the things she believes in, and explained the ways she has used <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/999013\/rihanna-has-finally-told-us-when-she-s-releasing-new-music?query=rihanna%20super%20bowl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">her career<\/a> as a platform to advocate for causes that are dear to her.

I couldn&#8217;t dare do that,&#8221; she explained about the event. &#8220;For what? Who gains from that? Not my people. I just couldn&#8217;t be a sellout. I couldn&#8217;t be an enabler. There&#8217;s things within that organization that I do not agree with at all, and I was not about to go and be of service to them in any way.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-6\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"60.5\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"11\">\n<p>But with everything currently happening in the world and our nation, the singer has found ways to put a positive spin on it and become a force for good.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I feel like the darkness has actually forced people to find this light within them where they want to do better,&#8221; she shared. &#8220;It&#8217;s easy when you think everything is going really well and perfect. When everything is flowers and butterflies and you&#8217;re in your own bubble and your own world.
