Fans sweet on island hitmaker Rihanna‘s ‘Birthday Cake’, lifted from sixth album ‘Talk That Talk’, will certainly be talking when they find out who her co-star is on the remix according to producers. Despite igniting (then quickly shooting down) rumors that ‘Beautiful’ belter Christina Aguilera would make a cameo on ‘Cake’, Da Internz (The Dream‘s co-producers of the track) took to MTV to share news of the song’s revamp.
Already confirming the album interlude has been rebooted with a full version and granted single status, the production duo also hint at a visual to accompany the sexy tune. But, did they drop hints on who the ‘shocking’ co-star will be?
Hear their thoughts after the jump:
Interview performed Saturday:
The track, undoubtedly one of ‘Talk’s’ better offerings, is certainly a wise move to take for the Barbadian beauty. Given the swiftly dying buzz around ‘You Da One‘ and Drake‘s ‘Take Care’, the latter just saw its accompanying visual completed, a ‘Care’ coincide with a ‘Cake’ release would certainly maximize an (already overly maximized) exposure for Riri.
If she will keep true to her word that no female would guest the remix, it leaves us wondering what shocking male co-star could she have enlisted to transform the track anew. Things that make you go mmm…
Update:
Male feature confirmed not to be Chris Brown.

it’s breezy
all bets on USHER! …….. wait what about chris brown hmm
chris brown
If it’s not Chris Brown then who would it be? Only Chris Brown on a Rihanna song would shock the world. Nothing else!
Could not hear the interview (I live in Canada), but I hope this shock does not mean Chris Brown. That would be career s******. Sure, short term she would get a lot of attention, and cause MAJOR controversy, but long term, it would hurt her.
Breezy would be cool, that would be great for him cuz people would stop remember him the past.
Omigod! I hope its Chris Brown and a video?! *faints* I hope its freakin s***! Sexiest video I ever seen! 😀 so excited
I’ll say this.
I have a strong feeling it’ll be Chris Brown and if it is, whoever else in the navy that wants to defend that s***? Be my guest, cause I most certainly wont be here for what will be one of the dumbest moves in a music career to date.
This is the sort of s*** that takes you from win to lose in 1 sec and if its done I’d go as far to say that the entire era would take a huge dent probably beyond repair.
It makes absolutely no sense and it in no way helps her musically. It doesn’t help him either, but what it would do is shift all negative press towards her and in his mind I’m sure he would see it as retribution cause to this day he still believes he is the victim after f****** her up that night.
Again if it is Chris Brown which it most likely will be it is one of the dumbest moves possible. The song will be ruined the backlash will be out the wazoo and an era of so far winning will be automatically shifting to lose central. We shall see.
@Mel its like stabbing yourself to the face. I support her immensely but this if a Chris Brown collab would be stupid beyond words.
Hope it isnt Chris Brown !
I wish she would have allow a female collaborator on this track !!!!
Because her and Christina will be epic or her and Lil Kim
I’m a fan of rihanna always have been, but she’s setting herself up for failure.
I think it’s beyonce…I first thought of CB…although it would be nice…but I think it’s beyonce. People need to move on from what CB/Ri experience while there were young and understand that they are older now. They may have learned from the consequences of the situation. People make mistakes, they both have talent and shouldn’t be refrain from working with each other as well as wanting to rekindle their friendship that was lost. Life is about learning and growing!!!
@DaInternz on Twitter have confirmed that it will not be Chris Brown!
People that Rihanna havent collaborating with:
Christina Aguilera
Trey Songz
Lil Wayne
Beyonce
Lil Kim
Lady Gaga
Katy Perry
Keri Hilson
Mary J Blige
Mariah Carey
Shakira
I think a female would be great for the song Christina or Madonna, yeah! a collaboration with Madonna would be a huge surprise it doesn’t get better than that.
I think Rihanna and Shakira should do a song together !!!!!!
@Rihannanavy what annoys me too is the fact that things were getting back on track after she just annihilated the grammy stage was the best dressed on every fashion show and now this f***** s***. Def Jam be f****** up forreal if they green light this foolishness.
They already sed that it wasn’t Chris Brown…Thank God!….the producers are just SO excited to be workin w/ The Queen that they want to hype their s*** up hoping it will be a smash hit..I doubt it will be as shocking as they claim, but we shall see…
Ok I just saw that @Its all good. Still holding my breath but feeling a little better now.
oh thank god its not chris brown! negative impact b******!
TYGA OR KATY PERRY
Tyga is not shocking what planet or people living on?, neither is lil wayne, drake, nicki minaj, rick ross, trey songz, lil kim, keri hilson, katy perry, or lady gaga.
I really hope it’s not Chris Brown just because she would get a lot of s*** for that.
It’s Tupac lol! 😀
I do believe that Chris Brown and Rihanna will be reunited one day. As fu*ked up as it may sound, they just seem to belong together. However, it’s too soon for them to do a song together. Sh*t would be so hot though lol. Give Chrianna another 3 years…they’ll be back together.
@Teacher
Back from the grave to collab with Rihanna LOL!!!
Like i said before, she should have just added Khia as a collaborator on the “Birthday Cake” song. She really fits the “dirty, s*** lyrics” vibe that she was going for. Also everyone purchase Khia’s new single “Pay Your P**** Bill” available on iTunes NOW!
http://youtu.be/avPzbkg_FbQ
I’ll take a random guess and say Justin Bieber, LOL.
UGH BEIBER?!?! NO MAM!–hahahahahaha, anyway, TALK THAT TALK is A HOT CD, every single song is hottttttttt!!!!!!!
They said the person is going to shock the world as to say OMG. It can’t be Usher,Trey,Drake,Wayne,Ross, Justin Bieber because none of them would shock us. The only one that will shock us would be Chris Brown
Oh s*** if it is him the Navy is going to go nuts. LMFAO.
Everyone knows it’s Chris Brown. Duh. It’s the start of introducing the world to them being back together
Ok I just thought about it. Maybe it’s Beyonce. If it is it will be so f****** funny beause both fans hate each other. But she said she wanted a male oh well we have to wait and see.
Matt Kemp hell no
I’m not here for a Granny B collab either, but I’d even take sponsoring her on life support career before a dumbass move like having Chris on that track.

_______________________________
And if it is Chris then it goes to show you what Rihanna think about her fans. She going to do what she wants to do just like the Navy always said. .
First off the producers confirmed it isn’t Chris and they better not be lying. Secondly she can do what she wants obviously, but the diff sn the Navy as a fanbas are not sheep. If a major ratched ass decision like that was to go through you can be damn sure I wouldn’t be buying that s*** on Itunes or supporting the song for anything. I took a peak at some other sites and other Navy members were saying the same thing as well. But even if they weren’t I for one wouldn’t. I just cant with something that defies all logic and common sense.
typos galore f*** me.
I bet its Beyonce! So what if she said there no females ! She could be tricking you dumb navy! The-Dream is a frequent Beyonce collaborator. And people have been waiting a long time for them to collaborate on a song together.
WHY DO I GET THE FEELING IT WILL BE “USHER”
Birthday Cake is already amazing, just give us the full version! Don’t mess up with this song, it’s her best work in years…
Anyway, I think Lil Wayne would be very suitable for this song, he would make it a hit on Urban radios for sure. I just don’t want to see Pitbull, LMFAO, J Cole on it.
Finally she released something good. I don’t like Rihanna’s singles since Rockstar 101, Loud era was abysmal and We Found Love and You Da Flop were bad as well. I can’t wait to see the music video. I’m looking forward for it.
Well if it is CB then what ever happened that night was all lies. This lie is something her PR/Jay-Z/L.A. Reid wanted her to do. If it is we will all find out the truth. If it is him then Rihanna is proving a point the all the haters including her fans
Funny Jay have no time to be watching Rihanna he with his Baby Blue, Rihanna don’t listen to nothing her PR team says to her, L.A. Reid used her for all she worth now its bye time. Now I guess if it’s true the haters will kill themselves for sure..
Don’t think the world would be saying OMG for Usher. Just because they used the word OMG Usher’s song.
I think its Cbrown
Lmaoo @Whut is a Pressed b**** “granny B” lmaooo isnt it ur Fave who moves and sounds on stage like a granny !!!!!!???? LMaooo b**** pleas
Have a seat and sip on the voal range F2-e6
I Say Prince would be a good shocker
Maybe Robin Thicke? Justin Timberlake? Pharrell? I’m trying to think of someone unexpected, but if it’s a male feature, there’s not a huge selection to pick from.
Can she just go somewhere far far away?
If the male is not going to be Chris Brown then who would be shocked? If they lifted vocals from Michael Jackson or a living male legend that wouldn’t be shocking. And they allegedly spent 5 hours together in her dressing room “catching up”? Ummmhuh..LOL! 🙂
I really liked the Umbrella/Cinderella remix with Rihanna & Chris. I’m not even gonna front (lie)! LOL 🙂
I am laughing hysterically! So Rihanna’s Navy is ready to abandon ship are you? LOL 🙂 Rihanna loves Chris Brown no matter what her fans and the feminist say. I don’t like it but hey what can you do?
these are the only shocking collaborators..
beyonce
lady gaga
prince
chris brown
madonna (this would be amazing)
janet jackson
kelly rowland
bruno mars
dr. dre (any other rapper would be expected)
ciara
bon iver
any bands
my fav collab would be madonna, beyonce, lady gaga, dre dre, prince or kelly rowland!
I say Cee Leo or Bruno or Coldplay lol!!!
Ooooh Adam Lambert………..!
A good shocker would be Prince or someone from a different Genre. Even Beyonce would shock alot of people. Both of them on that hot as track would jump to number 1. But im thinking PRINCE.
Kiiiiiiii @ this b**** reaching with amputated arms. Abandon ship?! CH…
I can only speak for myself but I am one navy member that doesn’t do fickle hun.
The most dynamic, intriguing, fashion forward, icon in the making, champion of the game will ALWAYS be my fave so let’s not get the game f***** up at all. I just don’t do mind-numbingly stupid, and a decision like hooking with Chris Brown especially on song like this is all kinds of stupid for the Queens career.
Her personal life is just that personal but when it comes to the brand and decisions affecting the brand then hold the f*** up we are here to WIN and this? would never in a million years made of any kind of WINNING.
@COMMANDEROFTHEDANCEFLOOR
Agreed!!! But I honestly don’t believe its ciara,usher or kelly rowland. That’s not a shocker. Its either a rock/country singer. If not then it’s Prince or Beyonce.
No one would be shocked with Usher/madonna or any other “singer” But Prince!!!!! I have a strong feeling its him. Because he covered rude boy a few years back.
I think it would be really hot if she had beyonce BUT I highly doubt it.

THIS!
They’re just hypin up their track…I’m convinced it won’t be shocking….they just want to get ppl talkin about it…
rihanna would not embarrass herself and collab with beyonce or lady gaga .. Could u imagine the video?! Rihanna would be slayed beyond belief .. But whoever it is its a very good move tho because both you da one and talk that talk have clearly flopped so an attention seeking collab is obv the way to go ..
@whut
where u been at?
uve been getting ur d*** suck and ur balls lick or something?
so f****** rude…not checking on rated x
JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE!!! He will use this as exposure for his myspace revamp!!
I have a feeling it’s Katy.
Their collaboration has been up in the air for quite some time now so it all makes sense.
only these people would shock the world
1. Busta Rhymes – would not benefit her thou
2. Chris Brown – So the world can move on
3. R. Kelly – So he can upgrade the song
4.Keri Hilson – they would both look cute
5.Missy Eliot – She’s on the comeback trail
6. Lil’kim – to show Nicki how its done
Kiiiiiiii still digging hun??? Careful while you dig boo, wouldn’t want to stub a toe on a flop blond lacefront’d fossil or two.
and not much going on to visit this dump much. The chronic hating ass BeyH.I.V.S still are paralyzed from all that slayage the Queen put down on Sunday so they’ve been on mute sparing themselves the dragging.
Smoke, smoke, smoke. No flame.
damn if it’s not Chris Brown then who the hell it gonna be? I’d like to see Busta or Snoop. Kick it old skool honey none of this new s***. Either way, i’ll probably edit the rap out
I hope it’s SHOCKingly GOOD than SHOCKingly WTF = ChrisBrown >_<!!!
shocking…….. well then I go with MARILYN MANSON LMAO
Chris Brown would’ve been PERFECT! I mean, they are cute together whether y’all accept the fact or not. They’re in love, and Rihanna can do whatever she wanna do. It’s her life. Another thing that I’m not understanding is that Rihanna said that she didn’t want a female feature, so why are y’all throwing female names out there???? Prince would be a great shock. I can’t even imagine him being on the song, but whoever it is better shock the f*** outta us cause they’re hyping this a little too much, and we all know what happens when people hype ish up. *Waits patiently for the song to leak or be released.*
Firstly, it won’t be a legend because the song is about eating p**** and s**, can you really see Prince singing “Cake, Cake, Cake, Cake”, LOL, I don’t think so.
I think the collaboration will be with either Trey Songz, Usher, J Cole, Lil Wayne or Rick Ross, none of whom are shocking but they would all sound hot on the track.
http://theofficialmusicjunkie.b*******.com/
Why is she even releasing this smutty song?
All I know is the b**** better deliver…there is nothing worse than amping something up only to serve us s***.
S/N: I can’t even begin to imagine how raunchy the video for the song will be.
I’m kinda hoping it will be Big Sean. He’s just so damn s***
I can just imagine a s*** A** video with them two.
Prince: very unlikely.
Bruno mars would be shocking, but idk how he’d sound on the track.
i’d DIE if it’s Justin Timberlake. That would be too AMAZING.!!!
I hope it’s King B though although she said no girls.
(Or Ciara) those 2 would be cute together.
I know a lot of ppl would disagree though
clearly its chris brown i mean they were at the same studio on friday the only collabo that would shock would be breezy although its career sucide lol
Really have no idea! But I am excited!
Honestly, I hope it is CB…that is the only person that would shock me. And that’s the only person that should have done the colab. Think about it…who knows Rihanna better sexually…CB…so him giving us a Lil rap verse or some s*** vocals…that’s a instant #1. yes they have personal history that the public may not agree on…but I am saying let the music speak for itself…I dont want to see no Madonna(old ass) talking about no cake…eww….
I think it’s gonna be Justin Bieber, Justin Timberlake or Akon. 🙂
Huuummmm Shock?????
I think:
CIARA, or CHRIS B orrrrrrr BEYONCE!
Xtina or Ciara would be HOT!!!!!
The only features on this track that could possibly “shock” me are
A- chris brown for obvious reasond
B-Beyonce; this is not exactly the kinda track you’d expect to hear 1st following her child delivery
C- a living legend like Mick Jagger, Bon Jovi etc
D- cookie cutter female singers eg Taylor Swift, Alicia Keys
@whut
“granny B”, “fossil” is that the best u can do? I guess when inferiority complex has u battered lifeless,ageism is always there. U are no less pathetic than losers who resort to sexism, racism to feel better about their deadbeat souls.
What’s even more laughable is that u are stanning for rihanna in the process, an artist who has exudes the energy and stage presence of a dead fly on stage. Her performance skills are as good as a scarecrow. Besides the fact that Beyonce will have her looking like a prop on stage, we know Queen B has the more youthful set of lungs. Thanks to her rotten habits, she’s filled with more poison & toxic chemicals than the great whale.
That grammy performance? Meh, maybe she was d best of d worst. Still nothin to brag about; whether the singing was live or not, it was pitchy, oft offkey n cacaphonic; the choreography was high school musical level. 7 years/ 6 albums deep; her decent performances can be counted on 1 hand. Of course u’d exaggerate. As a rihanna fan, ur threshold as to what constitutes a good performance is only so high
Oh Ciara would be a shock to lol, given that twitter fiasco
@WHUT,,,Isee you Holding things down
in my Absent, Thanks Ofc.

For all we know it could be Cheryl Cole, Susan Boyle Or Adele…..
Ya’ll really pushed for this whack ass song? the worst song on the album. this just goes to show what music has come to.
Some of the athlets, baseball, basket , fotball!
FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER @HONEY_DIP11 I FOLLOW BACK!
She will lose me as a fan if it is Chris Brown… #shedontneedhim
who called king b a granny? if thats the case Usher is granda pa and madonna is great grandma.
you know its queens running this post using such words as “ki”….must be a Makeal and kevin stan.
I cant see too many people hopping on a song where Rihanna is saying “I wanna f*** you right now” …..sorry
I think “Cake” is a GREAT club song. But I dont know how well it would do as a single. But hey “Ass (Dance)” did good, so maybe this will too….
I can hear Nick all over this track, but that wouldn’t be a shock. Neither would Lil Wayne….I bet is still on the Dream…lol
And Bey better not hop on this ratchet song…. lol
Brandy (she could use the exposure), Janet Jackson, Lil Kim, Usher, Miguel, Jeremiah or Missy Elliot would be the only collabs that shock me.
I hope she doesn’t select anyone too predictable.
It’s Justin Bieber!!!!!!!!! His birthday is only 1 week after Rihanna’s 😀
Its confirmed, Janet Jackson will be shaking her ass to Cake allongside Rihanna. Epic.
I hope its not Beiber. I’d love for it to be Prince. He nasty too yessssss!
i really do hope it’s Beyonce, because that would be kind of amazing!
“Its confirmed, Janet Jackson will be shaking her ass to Cake allongside Rihanna. Epic.”

oh, ok, I’m here for Janet too!

Oh my fave’s performances are getting better and better every time. I am LIVING tbh. Progress and growth is such a beautiful thang wouldn’t you agree? In fact don’t answer that bum, a RESOUNDING A + from many a critic on the biggest stage in music agrees with moi.

KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
PRINCE,JANET OR GAGA.
IF NOT, ITS NOT SHOCKING. AND YES THIS IS THE BEST SONG ON HER FLOP ALBUM.
some body is really going through the motions….0_O
It’s not Chris. Can people please let them move on! It’s probably not even shocking. Just hype. I cannot think of any artist that would seem shocking. Katy, GaGa, Lil’ Wayne, Nelly, Nicki, Drake, XTina, 50 Cent, Em, J. Cole, Bey, T.I., Ne-Yo and others would not be shocking. If it’s Ice-T it would be shocking. lol
Maybe it’s Janet? If it is. Why, Janet?! Why?! Don’t do it, JJ! Please God don’t let it be Madonna either!
ITS JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE LOL
I thought about JT being on it too, but it’s still not shocking.
