Rihanna real name Robyn Rihanna Fenty took some time off from her busy schedule to enjoy the Buju Banton concert in Barbados on Saturday night. Buju Banton performed for a sold-out crowd at the Kensington Oval.
Rihanna was among high profile guests spotted in the VVIP section including the Prime Minister of Barbados, Mia Mottley. RiRi flew down to Barbados the day before specifically for the event.
Rihanna played the part of supermodel wearing a loud check outfit with her brand’s name written in black writing across the fabric. She dazzled people with her long legs in a peculiar checkered jumpsuit and a matching coat.In addition to a high-low coat with ruffled sleeves and a cape-like train, the Barbados-born beauty added matching ankle-high booties.
There had been rumors that Rihanna would be taking the stage with Buju Banton, but in the end, she didn’t.
Buju Banton had other special guests at the show including Wayne Wonder, Agent Sasco and Spragga Benz. The Grammy-winning reggae singer put on a show for his fans as he continues to make his way across the Caribbean with his Long Walk To Freedom Tour.
Buju’s set was well-received, and he met with RiRi to chop things up and take a few candid photos. The show was wrapped at around 3 a.m. local time, and fans say they were pleased with the performance.
In 2017, Rihanna registered a song “Phatty” with Buju getting credit. This move got the rumor mill going that the two had new collaborations in the works. At the time, RiRi had just started recording her forthcoming dancehall album. There are still yet to officially record and there is no release date for the project, but the Bajan pop star has been teasing new music for the past couple of months.
This collaboration should be a banger.
