Rihanna is skipping sleep to stay on top of her businesses and parenting!
On Thursday, Feb. 26, the “Umbrella” singer, 38, shared a glimpse into an average day in her life on Instagram and teased potential new music as she revealed she's been in the studio.
The timestamped video began with her walking into a meeting for her fashion brand Savage X Fenty shortly after 9 p.m. After greeting her co-workers, she was seen discussing designs and examining fabric samples to give her approval. “Le Freak” by CHIC played in the background as Rihanna then signed copies of her albums, Loud, Music of the Sun and Good Girl Gone Bad.
“I still have to go to the studio after this and I have to make a Mardi Gras costume for my son after the studio,” she said as the meeting continued until almost 2 a.m. “Longest day ever.”

The nine-time Grammy winner and rapper A$AP Rocky share two sons — Riot, 2, and RZA, 3 — and daughter Rocki, whom they welcomed in September.
Rihanna was busy at work in the studio by around 2:30 a.m., but muted the video’s audio to avoid revealing the music she was working on.
The “We Found Love” singer hasn’t released a studio album since ANTI in 2016, while her latest song, “Friend of Mine,” was released in 2025 for the Smurfs movie.
“We should have coffee someday, get to know each other,” she joked with the sound engineers in the Instagram video. “Yesterday’s price is not today’s price.”

The musician sharing that she was in the studio sent her fans into a frenzy with hopes she is working on her ninth studio album.

One wrote in the comments section, "Now this album is really coming!" while another of her 349 million Instagram followers added, "Studio? Do you mean new music? 🎵."
Rihanna then revealed she still hadn’t slept when she began “mom duties” at 7 a.m, as she had to get straight to work on her son’s Mardi Gras costume.
She was seen gluing sequins and green feathers to an umbrella before also embellishing a pair of denim pants. Chaka Khan’s “I’m Every Woman” played as she carried her son Riot out of the house wearing the outfit she finished making at 8:30 a.m.

The video comes during an already busy period for Rihanna as she recently attended New York Fashion Week in support of partner A$AP Rocky, 37, and teased a new Dior J’adore fragrance coming on Feb. 27.
Rocky debuted the Fall/Winter 2026 collection for AWGE during fashion week as Rihanna sat front and center.
“I’m always proud of my man,” Rihanna told New York Post’s Alexa at the event. “My guy’s creative and a genius.”
