Rihanna Celebrates 20 Years With R20 Vinyl Box Set of All Eight Albums
Rihanna hasn’t released a new album since 2016’s ANTI, but fans will have something special to celebrate this year. The global superstar is reissuing a collector’s dream: a complete vinyl box set featuring all eight of her studio albums.
Back in 2016, Rihanna dropped a limited-edition 15xLP bundle that included double-disc vinyls for nearly every project, a 186-page hardcover book with rare booklet artwork, and even a signed vinyl slipmat. That original release, packaged in a sleek black case with her signature in white, is still circulating online today—often selling for over $1,000 on Amazon.
Now, in honor of the 20th anniversary of her debut album Music of the Sun (which gave the world “Pon de Replay”), Rihanna is reviving the concept with the brand-new R20 Vinyl Box Set. This updated edition will come in all-white packaging, stamped with her hand-drawn “Rhenna” doodle—a design that fans will recognize from her longtime Instagram profile image.

What’s Included in Rihanna’s R20 Collection
Alongside the vinyl box set, the anniversary drop also features limited-edition merch and collectibles:
-
A layered “Rhenna” t-shirt
-
A hoodie with her iconic doodle
-
A fully poseable Rihanna doll with moveable arms and legs
Pre-orders are now open, with clothing scheduled to ship on October 17 and the collectible doll arriving on Halloween.
The Album Everyone’s Still Waiting For
While this anniversary collection is a major win for fans and vinyl lovers alike, many are still holding out hope for Rihanna’s long-awaited ninth studio album. Rumors continue to swirl about a possible 2025 release, though nothing has been confirmed.
In the meantime, Rihanna is embracing another milestone in her personal life—she’s currently expecting her third child with A$AP Rocky. The singer proudly revealed her baby bump at this year’s Met Gala, though she has kept details like the baby’s gender under wraps. Insiders speculate it might be a girl, with “Rebel” floating as a potential name.
For now, fans can mark their calendars and secure a piece of history with the R20 Vinyl Box Set, a tribute to two decades of Rihanna’s reign in music.
