Rihanna's upcoming album "Anti" has been subject of rumors for many months now, but fans will finally be able to get a copy of it very soon.

According to numerous reports, if the previously rumored Black Friday release is indeed true, the 27-year-old artist will be dropping her new album on Friday, Nov. 27.

"Anti" will be Rihanna's eighth album and a highly anticipated one since her last album release, "Unapologetic," was from almost four years ago. The new album is said to be available only to Tidal, Jay Z's music streaming service, before the official release on Dec. 4.

Rihanna's latest album release was not the only good news fans received this week; it was also announced that the Barbadian singer will be holding a World Tour for her "Anti" album next year.

Not a lot of details about the album have been given away, but the singer already announced on Instagram last Monday, Nov. 23, that her "Anti" World Tour will start on February.

Harper's Bazaar noted that it will be Rihanna's first World Tour since 2012, when she had her "Diamonds" World Tour.

Rolling Stone provides the complete details of her tour. The report stated that Rihanna will start on Feb. 26 to deliver her performances at the Viejas Arena in San Diego and will be there for three months. The North America tour will conclude on May 7 at the Oracle Arena in Oakland.

In June, she will be in Europe for a two-month tour. Reports indicate that her boyfriend, Travis Scott, will open for her North American tour, while The Weeknd and Big Sean will accompany her to Europe. More information on the tour dates can be found in Rolling Stone.

Concert tickets will be available to American Express account holders and Tidal subscribers on Nov. 30, followed by a general sale of tickets to all Rihanna's shows on Dec. 3.
