Rihanna has more important things to worry about than an album.
The “Work” singer, cosmetics and fashion mogul, went on Instagram Live Friday night for the inaugural Fenty Social Club, but things got heated when fans inquired about her highly anticipated ninth album (her first since 2016’s “Anti”), Harpers Bazaar reported Saturday.
“If one of y’all motherf*ckers ask me about the album one more time when I’m trying to save the world, unlike y’all president…” the 32-year-old pop star says in a clip of the interaction, shared by Pop Crave Music, pointing to President Trump’s controversial response to the coronavirus pandemic.
“If one of y’all motherf*ckers ask me about the album one more time when I’m tryna save the world unlike y’all president… on sight!”

Fans were previously optimistic the “Disturbia” singer would release the hush-hush album at some point this year, though much has been put on the backburner amid the global crisis.
On Thursday, she teamed up with Twitter and Square CEO Jack Dorsey to announce the duo would donate $4.2 million — $2.1 million of which is through the singer’s Clara Lionel Foundation — to help domestic violence victims in Los Angeles who are being forced to quarantine with their abusers.
The grant will be given to the Mayor’s Fund for Los Angeles, which will assist these victims by paying for 10 weeks of shelter, meals, and counseling for victims amid what UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres described as a “horrifying global surge” in domestic violence.
The initiative with Dorsey is in addition to Rihanna’s foundation pledging $5 million to assist in international relief efforts amid the pandemic.
