Starting with a slow song like “Stay” is is a pretty bold move by Rihanna. And what's also surprising is her selection for closing song! “Kiss It Better” and not lead “ANTI” single “Work" as closer?
As of this post, Rihanna’s new tour will end in late August with a concert in the UK. Will RiRi extend the “trek”? Only time will tell!
This “ANTI” tour has been very anticipated by the whole of the “NAVY” as Rihanna’s last SOLO tour was “The Diamonds World Tour” back in 2013 - when she was promoting the “Unapologetic” album.
