Rihanna took to Instagram on Wednesday to tease what looks to be her new album. Rihanna shared a picture with the hashtags “#R8,” “#BBHMM” and “#March26,” plus a link to her site [RihannaNOW.com](http://www.rihannanow.com/news/bbhmm/ "undefined") (which leads to the same picture and hashtags). Fans have previously used #R8 on Twitter to discuss Rihanna’s highly anticipated eighth album, and many are speculating that #BBHMM stands for “B— Better Have My Money” a possible name for either a new single or album. Rumors have swirled for months about the release date of Rihanna’s first album in almost three years. Anticipation grew when she released a collaboration with Kanye West and Paul McCartney, [“FourFiveSeconds”](http://time.com/3681571/rihanna-kanye-west-paul-mccartney-fourfiveseconds/ "undefined") and [teased two other songs on Instagram](http://time.com/3734120/rihanna-higher-dancing-in-the-dark/ "undefined"). The artist’s enigmatic announcement comes just a few days before _Home_, an animated film to which she lent her voice, premieres on Friday. Watch Rihanna and co-stars Jim Parsons and Steve Martin [discuss the film](http://time.com/3748026/rihanna-jim-parsons-steve-martin-home/ "undefined") and the possibility of alien life below. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3759184/rihanna-new-music-r8/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3759184/rihanna-new-music-r8/"},"headline":"Rihanna May Drop Her New Album Tomorrow","datePublished":"2015-03-25T23:13:27.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T05:26:57.253Z","description":"Or will it just be a new single?","url":"https://time.com/3759184/rihanna-new-music-r8/","keywords":["Music","Rihanna"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Eliana Dockterman","jobTitle":"Correspondent","url":"https://time.com/author/eliana-dockterman/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3759184/rihanna-new-music-r8/","name":"Rihanna May Drop Her New Album Tomorrow"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Rihanna, Jim Parsons and Steve Martin Discuss Aliens, Obama and More","description":"In their new animated movie, Home, voice talents Rihanna, Jim Parsons, and Steve Martin make an unlikely trio.
