Rihanna is back everyone. Last night, the pop Queen unexpectedly dropped a new, mellow single called “FourFiveSeconds“, featuring Kanye West and Paul McCartney.
Match made in heaven? Yes.
Badgalriri’s latest acoustic track is enough to whet your appetite as we wait for her highly anticipated R8, which is due out this year.
Last night, Rihanna tweeted out:

Her collaboration with Kanye and Paul comes at the heels of Kanye’s surprise duet with the legendary Beatles singer-songwriter, in “Only One”.
Yeezy had also previewed “FourFiveSeconds” on Thursday (Jan. 22, 2015) at the iHeartRadio Summit music industry event in Los Angeles. After a 45-minutes stream of consciousness delivery to the crowd, Kanye played the song straight from his computer before shutting it closed, announcing the drop date, and walking off stage.
There will be more West and McCartney collaborations to come, as when “Only One” dropped, a rep for the rapper said it was the “publicly available recording from what has become a prolific musical collaboration between these two legendary artists.”
“FourFiveSeconds” is available for download on iTunes here! While we don’t have an exact date for the release of R8, we can expect it to come out this year.
