“Music Made Me Famous, But God Had Bigger Plans” – Rihanna Reflects On Her Career
Rihanna, the globally celebrated singer and beauty mogul, recently opened up about how music, though it launched her into stardom, wasn’t the ultimate purpose she believes was set for her.
Speaking passionately at the launch of her Fenty Beauty line in her homeland of Barbados, the Grammy-winning artist shared a reflective moment on her journey.
She expressed that while music initially drew the world’s attention to her, she felt her true calling lay beyond the microphone.
“Music brought me into the spotlight,” she said, “but I’ve always felt that God had a different path for me.
My career evolved naturally, allowing me to create things that felt sincere and true to what I love.”
This evolution saw her shift from a pop star to a major force in the beauty industry, where her groundbreaking Fenty Beauty brand reshaped standards by promoting diversity and inclusivity, offering foundation shades for a vast array of skin tones—a rarity in the industry at the time.
In 2021, Forbes recognized Rihanna as a billionaire, a milestone that solidified her status not only as a musician but as a savvy entrepreneur.
Much of her wealth comes from Fenty Beauty, the company she co-owns with luxury powerhouse LVMH, which generated significant revenue, cementing her influence far beyond music.
Her success extends to other ventures as well, including her lingerie line, Savage X Fenty, which also embraced body positivity and inclusivity.
Nigerian singer Harry song speaks on the rising insecurity in the country and shared that increasing the security income can help improve their performance in securing the country.
The singer took to social media and urged the government “TO MR PRESIDENT. IF YOU REALLY, TRULY WANNA END INSECURITY IN NIGERIA? Start by increasing the salary and allowances of the armed forces. The salary of the army, the navy, the air force, the Nigerian Police Force is too small, too shameful. Increase their salary, this job should be worth dying for. Increase their salaries ooooooo pls and pls.”
Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye from the former duo P-Square, shares his greatest fear. During a recent interview, the singer spoke about his fears and revealed that he is not afraid of death.
Instead, he said he is scared of poverty and has this fear because he has experienced it before. “I am not afraid of death. The only thing I am afraid of in this life is poverty, of being broke.
“I have tasted it [poverty] before. I have been in our house with my parents and siblings, and a bulldozer came and demolished it.”
Popular Nigerian singer, Davido, makes headlines for his gesture of goodwill. It can be noted that during the afternoon performance, the singer paused for one minute of silence to honor his colleague Wizkid’s mother.
The singer paused during his performance and said “Personally, I have lost many loved ones, people close to me, so I understand how Wizkid is feeling right now. May his mother, our mother because she was dear to me, rest in peace.”
This gesture touched many fans, as they were in awe of the singer showing a kind heart despite the usual rivalry between their fan bases.
