The "Close To You" singer is seemingly getting closer to releasing new music and she opened up about her journey back to the medium nine years after the release of her last album "Anti" in January 2016. "I think music is my freedom. I just came to that realization. I just cracked the code on what I really want to do for my next body of work. I am actually feeling really good about this. I know I kept saying this over the years," Rihanna told the publication. The "We Found Love" hitmaker's March cover story for the magazine's legacy issue, on U.S. newsstands March 4, comes after she made a series of rare public appearances at the assault trial of her partner A$AP Rocky, born Rakim Mayers, who was found not guilty Tuesday.
