Drake and Rihanna have enjoyed some of their greatest successes together.
Now, rumors are rife that the smitten stars are set to chronicle their chemistry on a collaboration album project.
More fuel was poured on the flames moments ago when a mysterious countdown website went live.
Full story below…
Upon visiting the aptly titled DrakeAndRihanna.com, folk are greeted with the following…
Hmm.
Sure there’s an OVO logo featured, but we’re not getting excited just yet.
Upon further investigation, That Grape Juice note that the URL is registered to UK address and there’s no sign of any label affiliation.
If indeed legitimate, it will – from a PR perspective – make all their theatrics at the VMAs make more sense.
It’ll also be oh so interesting in that may see them race to retail before Beyonce and Jay Z‘s alleged joint project.
Given Rih’s Roc Nation affiliation, would she even be allowed to do that? Should such an LP exist, will it arrive via OVO or Westbury Road
Again, it’s anyone’s guess as to whether this

Iconic! this will be a smash hit. When will Beyoncé “no hits this decade” Knowles?
Or if it’s a joint album is totally passing 1 million pure sales in the first week. When will Beyoncé “not even 700K debut” Knowles?
Rihanna fans still salty about Sunday night VMA’s. Continue to lick your wounds, meanwhile Beyonce & her wig snatching peri romance and her 8 moon men continue to sit pretty & unbotherd! Rihanna and Drake are a poor mans Beyonce & Jay-z. The real shade is Rihanna albums sales are p*** poor and the only way to can have 1st week sales is by teaming up with Drake lol! #Stay mad ??
As a Beyonce lover, I found her vma performance lackluster. It looked nice, but vocally she sounded horrible at some points (especially during formation). Her bet performance was better.
?? But Rihanna hasn’t seen 300k? And she has EIGHT albums. You essentially just admitted that Frih’s chance at doing 1 million first week will be solely because of Drake’s inclusion. What a flop.
I really thought he was about to propose on Sunday… i was at the edge of my seat like O_o lol They are so cute together!
Hunny beyonce can actually sing though, she doesn’t have to only rely on hits…like some people.
You know you that b**** when u cuz all of this…
It’s probably for a video
Joint tour, joint album, joint p******, and what? Changing names to BEY and JAY?
Seriously rihanna can be recognized as a great artist if you stop comparing her to the legendary bee.
Too good video since it was a smash hit in uk,… Nothing to see here folks
1. If it’s a joint album I can only imagine the S.P.S… THE MOTHERFUĆĶÌNG S.P.S! It’ll be the most streamed album for the rest of the year and of all-time. Only the King & Queen of Streaming.
.
2. “Too Good” Music video?
.
3. A joint tour?
.
What is it? I AM SHOOK!!!!!!!
It’s probably the video for too good, but bishhhhhhh im so lit inside for thisssssssss
They want to be Jay and Bey so bad!
.
Im still laughing at SlaygendYoncé scalping her at the VMA’S! Lemonslayed is currently in the top 10 in 40+ countries and top 20 in 60+ countries. Frihanna dispite having 4 PERFORMANCES is only top 10 in 5 countries and top 20 in 13 ?????
What does nay of that have to do with the post? Seriously… I love Bey just as much as anybody but why propagate a non-existent stan war now! UGH. FFS.
Lmao the war was going to ignite whether i commented or not. I find it funny you came for my comment first but left that Slavi alone up top who ignited it. You ain’t Hive so which Slavi member are you? ?☕
Rihanna countless smash hits this decade, Beyoncé? Rihanna just had a #1 hit. Beyoncé?
Rihanna does payola
whois request clearly shows its fake
Both of their reps have confirmed that neither Drake or Rihanna have anything to do with this site.
I’m confused as Drake’s manager himself has posted a tweet relating to this?
.
It doesn’t make any sense.
Marriage? Rihanna’s pregnant? They’re engaged? Loooool. I’m so ready
If that´s the case it will be the first time the public buys in big scales during the first week an album where she is in 🙂 🙂 🙂
When I read “Iconic” “slayage” attached to Rihanna´s name in these comments I can only LOL
Get your dumb, filthy, white Spanish ass a out of this post and go elsewhere… It’s always dumb racist bishes like you tryna talk shiiiit
I said that when a Navy Stan tried it. The only way she can have first week sales even close to Bey is by Samsung or teaming up with Drake.
Yet sell around the same in the end? Do y’all ever get tired of coming up with stale drags?
Beyonce has been selling way more than Rihanna lately, especially in teh uSA, in the end and not in the end 🙂 Not to mention selling teh same in the end after 7 singles ready for what radio wants doesn´t scream real appreciation byt the public, does it? 🙂
Daaamnn bih, you all up in my faves post before I am. Y’all stan Miss Rihanna so damn hard. Y’all probably run a fansite. I get it tho, my fave’s p**** pops and yours doesn’t…because they’re all dead.
You mean I visit only one of the 7 Rihanna posts TGJ writes every two days? IO knwo you´re not good at logic but hun, that´s not being a fan. That´s just saying some truths every 7 posts 🙂
ps: you said Rihanna is bigger than Madonna has ever been… LMAO Just grow up!!!! 🙂
Funny, I make the same “LOL” whenever Mariah claims she sings with the mic on
LOL Oh boy don´t even go there. Mariah slayes Rihanna now in 2016 vocally, like really slayes. And also sings a similar percentage of her shows live, similar to Rihanna. Difference is Mariah has a good reason to lip some parts. Rihanna has none since her songs are “onana goats my name”. Do you understand it? 🙂
Tho it’s prolly for the video, a joint album would slay!! Lol not the hive feeling threatened by a rumor. Kii.
Threatened over Jay-a & Beyonce’s understudy releasing a joint album. Bey & Jay album have been rumored for the past 2 years either way the King & queen not bothered, Just flashback to Sunday night if you need a visual reminder why!
LMFAOOOOOOO!!!!
Drake overshadowed Beyoncé on the BB200 chart. So there’s no problem there. Beyoncé can’t have hits anymore. Why be threatened?
@Hailabey
Hey Sis, these girls been trying it, & I am feeling petty!
Sunday or did you mean the Sunday before at the Formation tour because too be honest I couldn’t tell the difference between the set and routines. Just sayin
The way this post has turned and the rumour aparently isn’t even true…
.
LMFAOOOOOOOOOO!
According to the clock, something will happen on Thursday, September 8 at 9 p.m. Eastern. However, representatives for both Drake and Rihanna have confirmed to Pitchfork that the site is not associated with either artist. Sorry, everyone.
Word on the street is that Rih is leaving Roc Nation. This follows a rumor that was leaked by a Roc Nation insider that claimed that the leak of ANTI was a sabotage as the project was going to be her last album under the label.
I gotta exclaim how proud I am of Miss Rihanna over her VMA performances as I’m still on cloud nine. Sure, Beyonce is a performance beast and stage force to be reckoned with, but my girl came all the way through and did her thang. Each year Rihanna continues to show growth. She gave the world four very different curated performances, each bolstering a different aesthetic like a moving painting, which is a far improvement from her 2008 and 2009 performances where she looked like a deer in headlights. From her europop dream to her Caribbean festival, she advanced herself and gave new choreogrpahy. Furthermore, she created completely different routines instead of bringing her ANTI Tour set which I expected. Simply, she out Kanyed Kanye! I love this girl and she ain’t done yet!
What I admired most about her set is how she showcased various facets of her discography and personality in one show.
.
Pop Rihanna; Dancehall/Island Rihanna; Urban-R&B/Hip-Hop Rihanna; Ballad/Downtempo Rihanna.
.
This woman has so many hits that she had to forgo some of her biggest, most iconic classics to suit songs that I personally she likes the most – Pon De Replay; S.O.S; Umbrella; Unfaithful; Take a Bow; Distrubia etc.
.
Where on earth was “UMBRELLA”?
.
Anyhow, I am so proud of her. At 28 years old she is already revieving lifetime achievement awards and the like. My goodness…
.
My fave is such a Queen and as a British-Caribbean myself (Jamaican and Cuban) I couldn’t be more pleased.
YESS! This girl has the definition of a discography and she’s not even 30! Her predecessors don’t even have a catalog as diverse and expansive as hers. The first two performances are my favorite! Like who else can do 4 very different performances, that each are a mix of her smash hits, at the same award show? Not a damn Gaga, not no damn Britney, and sure as hell not no boring wonderbread Taylor. She’s slowly but surely moving into the lane of greatness.
Who cares about first week sales when your albums have longevity.
Rihanna only has 2 #1 albums yet her albums usually outsell the person who topped it for the week.
GGGB
RATED R
LOUD
TTT
All these albums outsold the albums that debuted at #1 the week of release.
Lies!
In streams not pure sales & thats the real tea
Streams wasn’t as popular back then as it is now. UNA which was 2012 was her last album before this one and that was pure sales. Anti is the only album from Rih that was a streaming force rather than a physical release. Hate all you want but if streaming becomes the main way artists get their music out then you should be scared for Beyonce because her album hasnt even reached half the streams that Rih did.
Beyonce album has only been released on one streaming platform, Tidal so no one is scared of anything lol. If she would release it on everything she would probably be ahead of Rihanna there too. Her album has sold almost double Rihanna in PURE SALES which will always win no matter how big streaming becomes bexause it’s all about profit. So that argument is stupid.
@Blue Ivy
almost double? do you not understand that you (when I say you, then I mean HIVE) are dragging yourself? Do you not realize that it takes 1500 streams to equal ONE pure album sale? Ok and Rih just passed a billion streams within 5 months of release. Now if 1500 streams equals to one album sale then how many albums has Rih sold if she has a billion streams? (not including her “PURE” sales)
Anti has sold over 1m WW and is gold in pure sales in the USA. It has crossed 1billion streams and has stayed in the billboard HOT 200 top ten 30 weeks.
It is at 1.6 M S.P.S in the U.S.A and has 2.1 streams WW as of last week. It’s the fourth album to cross 2B streams… EVER.
.
“ANTI” is the best performing album in Global S.P.S since “PRISM” and she’ll surpass her in less time.
Keep it.
Joint albums are so lame, but I do prefer their music to the others….
Sam know this isn’t true he just wanted to start a Stan war and it worked as always
I don’t like collaboration between artists, let alone a joint album, like who wants to listen to an entire album of Drake and Rihanna singing together?
By the fvcking numbers…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKgEj4Jh3fU
LMFAOOOO!!! 200 million albums???? Bitxh where???? SHOW ME THE RECEIPTS!!! Her worldwide certifications have her at 32 million and Def Jam claimed she sold 50m albums back in 2013 and than Roc Nation claimed 60+ million earlier this year! LMFAOOOO the fuxking smoke and mirrors!
Take up your frustration and angst with Complex News, an authority publication in music industry.
Im guessing its a tour
OMG !!! I’m drawn to these two like a giant magnet! I live!!!!!! <3
Second rate Jay and Bey. Late.
Great. We get to hear a bunch of corny lines about how much Drake loves rihanna and how he wants to “go to bed with her.” He needs to go back to rap and stop with this mess. All the songs they’ve done together have been boring af. Rih made Drake soft.
will see in a 8 days!?! i dunno what this’ about. *shrugs*
I like their songs together but a whole album will just kill it.
HDD has 69% of sales counted for and Bey already sold 12k in pure sales! With streams it’s 15k. That’s up 2k from last week! SLAY!!! Can’t wait to see her WE sales this week. She’s coming for 3m in PURE SALES!!!!
LOL this site is like to JoannaPrada dude…
What they should be readying is marriage and carriage. Both have grown up so much and they’re equally successful, they’re ready.
If this true then good for them
