Rihanna has yet again joined forces with some all-star collaborators to bring fans her latest track.

On Saturday, the singer's new track "FourFiveSeconds" from her upcoming album dropped, featuring Paul McCartney and Kanye West. In this song, she tries out a stripped down, simplistic style. With the Beatles legend on the guitar, Rihanna sings lyrics like, "I think I've had enough, I might get a little drunk/I say what's on my mind, I might do a little time/Cause all of my kindness, is taken for weakness."

Her eighth studio album is as of yet untitled, but she keeps teasing parts of it, using #R8. Teasers have included two new tracks besides "FourFiveSeconds," as well as poster art, and even a new hairdo for a Paris photoshoot.

Rihanna is a Barbadian singer, actress, and fashion designer. Born in Saint Michael, Barbados, her career began upon meeting record producer Evan Rogers in late 2003 through mutual friends; she recorded demo tapes with his guidance. Her tape was sent to several record labels, and she subsequently signed a contract with Def Jam Recordings after auditioning for its then-president, hip-hop producer and rapper Jay-Z. Both her debut album, Music of the Sun (2005) and its follow-up A Girl Like Me (2006) peaked in the top ten on the US Billboard 200; the former featured the commercially successful song "Pon de Replay" while the latter produced her first Billboard Hot 100 number-one single, "SOS".
