Like each different warm-blooded mortal, I’m anxiously awaiting Rihanna’s return to music—though I preserve that it must be on her personal timeline!—so my coronary heart leapt after I learn on Wednesday that the Caribbean Queen could be releasing a brand new music referred to as “Buddy of Mine”…solely to then return to Earth with the information that mentioned music could be on the Smurfs film soundtrack. (No shade to Smurf Village, however am I the one one who can’t assist pondering of Seth Rogen’s character on The Studio attempting desperately to make a live-action Kool-Help film when this explicit franchise growth is introduced up?)
Rihanna’s new music will blessedly drop on Friday, Might 16, months earlier than the movie is due out, and whereas I can’t wait to throw ass within the membership (okay, dance for 10 minutes and be in mattress by 11 pm) to a banger initially recorded for a movie meant to suitably distract feral toddlers on a protracted Sunday afternoon, I can’t assist questioning: why is all the nice pop music confined to youngsters’s movies now? Okay, not all of it, however under, please discover my energy rating of hit pop songs initially recorded for the soundtracks of children’ films. (There are greater than you’d assume!)
