Rihanna has shared the title of her Black Panther: Wakanda Forever song that's out this week, and it's called "Lift Me Up".
Last night (25 October) Marvel Studios confirmed that Rihanna will appear on the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack with a teaser clip highlighting the "R" from Forever in the styles of Rihanna's "R" logo, and this afternoon (26 October) she's confirmed the news herself, and also treated fans to the song title.
The track is called "Lift Me Up", and she's shared a brief clip of what could be the melody.

The new song will mark Rihanna's first new music since appearing on PARTYNEXTDOOR's "Believe It" in 2020, and will be her first solo outing in nearly seven years, since her 2016 Anti album.
Rihanna announced last month that she'll headlining the next Super Bowl half-time show in February 2023. It's also been reported that Rihanna may head on a stadium tour after the Super Bowl show, but that's yet to be confirmed too.
Rihanna's "Lift Me Up" song will arrive this Friday (28 October). Black Panther: Wakanda Forever will get a cinema release on 11 November.
