Rihanna set the internet ablaze when she announced that she would be making her big return to the stage and music this February.

Rihanna's announcement quickly accrued millions of likes and comments
The Barbadian has not clarified whether new music will coincide with the Halftime Show as of yet, as most artists of the past have chosen to spotlight their existing catalog of hits rather than focus on new ones, but the nature of streaming could change things.
