So we hear that Ms. Rated R herself Rihanna is overseas in Berlin doing some promo for her current album while beginning work on her next LP.  Producer Sean Garrett bragged about working on the new album and claims to have already finished work on a certified radio banger:

“I got a record on Rihanna’s new album,” Garrett tells Rapup.com. “She’s got some surprises. The record I gave her was very, very positive, very big. It’s a f—ing smash.”

The track, he says, is “a humongous radio record,” more in tune with her previous releases like “Umbrella” and even her latest single, “Rude Boy.” “It’s just so infectious. It’s about getting past any drama and just being happy to be alive,” he explained. “It’s an encouraging record. It feels great, and it’s got great tempo. I made sure that it was bulletproof.

“It should be a single unless something crazy happens,” he continued. “It’s hot as f—. I think it’s a record that’s gonna stay on the radio for a long time.”
