TBA by Rihanna (TBA)
Sources say that Rihanna is gearing up to release album number nine and that it will be heavily influenced by the Dancehall genre.

TBA by The Veronicas (TBA)
The Veronicas are due to release their fourth album in 2019. After the experimentation with different genres on their self-titled release in 2014 it will be interesting to hear what direction they’ve decided to go in sonically.

Thank U, Next by Ariana Grande (TBA)
After the successful year she’s had with album “Sweetener” you’d think that Grande would slow down but she’s gearing up to release her fifth album.

The ‘Thank U, Next’ music video, which referenced the movies Bring It On, 13 Going on 30, Mean Girls, and Legally Blonde broke records on Youtube and Vevo.
