<p><strong>Rihanna</strong> isn&#8217;t intentionally hiding her son&#8217;s name and face from the world&#8211;she just hasn&#8217;t gotten around to sharing yet! The singer recently opened up about new motherhood, her <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/photo-rihanna-confirmed-as-headliner-for-upcoming-super-bowl-halftime-show/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">upcoming Super Bowl performance</a>, and that new music fans have been feening over.</p>
<p>Rihanna reportedly <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/rihanna-aap-rocky-reportedly-welcome-a-baby-boy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">welcomed her firstborn</a> with<em> </em><strong>A$AP Rocky</strong> in May, but the world has yet to catch a glimpse of the mini fashion killa.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;We just didn&#8217;t get around to it, really, we&#8217;ve just been living,&#8221; Rihanna said t<a href="https://apnews.com/article/rihanna-entertainment-sports-motherhood-music-14ea73006505a33793e3af992b083a2c" target="_blank" rel="noopener">old the </a><em>Associated Press.</em> &#8220;I guess there&#8217;s a certain freedom that comes with kinda just like getting it out there. The challenge is we wanna do regular sh*t with our baby.&#8221; Rihanna added, &#8220;But, since we haven&#8217;t gotten &#8217;round to sharing him with the world, we have to navigate it extremely, extremely cautiously right now.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<h5 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Rihanna Describes Motherhood As Being &#8220;Trippy&#8221; At First </strong></h5>
<p>In a separate interview with <em>Access Hollywood</em>, Rihanna reflected on the &#8220;trippy&#8221; yet &#8220;amazing&#8221; beginning of motherhood.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The beginning is like you&#8217;re tripping acid every day,&#8221; she said. &#8220;It&#8217;s wild, trippy as hell.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Continuing the conversation, the interviewer inserted a <em>&#8220;really.&#8221; </em>And Rih responded,<strong><em> &#8220;you won&#8217;t know that because you&#8217;ll never have the opportunity to give birth, you will never have those hormones weirding you out like that and telling you &#8216;wait, I have a baby, that&#8217;s crazy.&#8221;</em></strong></p>
<blockquote><p>The first-time mama added, &#8220;You look at him, he&#8217;s yours, but he&#8217;s a stranger, and he&#8217;s new, and you&#8217;re learning him as he&#8217;s learning you and learning the world. It&#8217;s an amazing experience, honestly.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<h5 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Rihanna&#8217;s Son Makes Her Soul Drop</strong></h5>
<p>Aside from the hallucinogenic feeling of motherhood, Rih also admitted being taken aback by her son&#8217;s eye contact. According to the singer, he&#8217;s got that heart-stopping stare.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;His eye contact, that&#8217;s some other sh*t,&#8221; Rihanna said. &#8220;Oh my god, when he looks at me in my eyes, my whole soul&#8230;I can&#8217;t tell if it&#8217;s cold or hot. It&#8217;s just like dropping. It&#8217;s amazing.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<h5 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Rihanna Says Performing In Super Bowl Was &#8220;Now Or Never&#8221;</strong></h5>
<p>Given the bond Rih-Rih describes, it&#8217;s hard to imagine the singer wanting to leave her little one! She told the <em>Associated Press </em>that the show was <em>&#8220;a challenge she welcomed.&#8221;</em></p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;It was a stage bigger than anything I&#8217;ve ever done, and it&#8217;s one of those things that if I&#8217;m going to leave my baby, I&#8217;m going to leave my baby for something special, and I was willing to do it,&#8221; Rihanna said. &#8220;It was now or never for me, I feel like.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>Rihanna confirmed she&#8217;d be headlining the halftime performance in September. But speaking to <em>AP, </em>she shut down the biggest speculation after the announcement.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Super Bowl is one thing, new music is another thing. Do you hear that, fans? Because I knew the second that I announced this, I said, &#8220;oh my God, they&#8217;re going to think my album is coming,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I need to get to work.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>Still, the new mama has been spending time in the studio&#8211;and polishing her <em>Fenty </em>empire. Just days ago, the singer released <em>Lift Me Up. </em>The song is the lead single on <em>Black Panther: Wakanda Forever </em>and Rihanna&#8217;s first new song in six years. In addition, her <em>Savage X Fenty Show Vol. 4 </em>will be streaming on Amazon Prime Video starting tomorrow.</p>
