According to a press release, the new song is called “Lift Me Up” and was “written as a tribute to the extraordinary life and legacy of Chadwick Boseman.” Rihanna co-wrote the song alongside Ryan Coogler, Ludwig Göransson , and Tems ; it was apparently recorded across five different countries. Coming out through Rihanna’s personal record label Westbury Road, in partnership with Roc Nation, Def Jam Recordings, and Hollywood Records, “Lift Me Up” is the official lead single for theoriginal soundtrack . More excitingly, it’s being described as the start of “the next era of Rihanna’s iconic career.”
Speaking about the track, songwriter Tems said, “After speaking with Ryan and hearing his direction for the film and the song, I wanted to write something that portrays a warm embrace from all the people that I’ve lost in my life.” Continuing, she added, “I tried to imagine what it would feel like if I could sing to them now and express how much I miss them.
