Their lyrics are about the emotions ensued from love and relationships, from endearment and desire to betrayal and liberation, with references to sex, drugs and alcohol. Its songs explore eclectic styles spanning pop, dancehall, alternative R&B, hip hop, soul, psychedelic, doo-wop and trap. Compared to the radio-friendly dance tunes of her previous albums, Anti is more muted and soulful. The first half consists of bass-heavy tracks, and the second is characterised by textured minimalism. SZA and Drake contribute guest vocals.Ĭonceived when Rihanna was experiencing creative struggles and emotional turmoil, Anti features an atmospheric production characterised by lo-fi beats, distorted vocals and downtempo arrangements.
