R&B star Rihanna has confessed she wants to start making "timeless" music.
The "Diamonds" hitmaker said she no longer enjoys performing a lot of her hit songs from her successful ten year career as she feels she's outgrown them, reported MTV online.
"I've made a lot of songs that are just really, really big songs that just blow up and I wanted to just kind of get back to, well not that they weren't real music, but I just wanted to focus on things that felt real, things that felt soulful, that felt forever.
"I wanted songs that I can perform in fifteen years. I want an album that I can perform in fifteen years, not any songs that will burn out. I find that when I get on stage now I don't want to perform a lot of my songs because they don't feel like me so I want to make songs that are timeless.
