Rihanna is out with a nicely shot and edited video for her ‘Friend Of Mine’ ‘Smurfs’ movie soundtrack. She makes a brief appearance in the visuals, brandishing a flower as an umbrella.
Scheduled for release on Friday, July 18, Rihanna voices Smurfette in the new Smurfs movie.
Following Desi Trill, DJ Khaled, Cardi B, Natania, and Subhi’s “Higher Love,” ‘Friend Of Mine’ —co-produced by Fallen, Jon Bellion, and Pete Nappi—is the second preview of the Smurfs soundtrack.
The full soundtrack is slated for release on Friday, June 13.
“Friend of Mine” also Rihanna’s first single since “Lift Me Up,” which she made for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. She was nominated for Best Original Song at the 2023 Academy Awards, for “Lift Me Up,” and performed it at the Hollywood ceremony.
Rihanna has not released an album since Anti. She has, however, been growing her family, as she is pregnant with her third child with A$AP Rocky.
