In the modern era the most prolific genre of music in the Top 40 is rap. This trend began in 2017 helped in part by rapper Drake flooding the Top 40 with his records. It did however mean there were new rappers making their Top 40 debut and Yxng Bane was one of those.
He first gained mainstream attention at the start of 2017 by featuring on a remix of "Shape Of You" by Ed Sheeran. Then he made his Top 40 debut as featured artist on "Bestie" by Yungen. Then came this, his first Top 40 hit as lead artist.
The title "Rihanna" is in reference to the singer of the same name. She had been one of the most prolific Top 40 artists in the decade or so prior to this, but by 2017 the hits started drying up for her. At the time of writing she's only had 3 Top 40 hits since, though by the time you read this she may have had her comeback single.
As for Yxng Bane, he was last seen in the Top 40 in 2021 at the time of writing.
