Part 8: Fuel, Meet Fire

  • March 2016: After a sexually-charged performance at the BRIT Awards, Drake and Rihanna decide to take their chemistry on the road. During her ANTI tour, Drake popped up on stage with Rihanna to perform "Work."
  • April 2016: Drake's highly-anticipated album, Views, is released. It features Rihanna on a song called "Too Good," with lyrics like, "I'm too good to you/I'm way too good to you/You take my love for granted/I just don't understand it." About working with Rihanna on the track, Drake told Beats 1's Zane Lowe, "'Too Good' came to fruition after we did ‘Work.’ I was like, I think I have one that would follow this one up really nicely. She got in the studio and just bodied it. It was like a flawless victory when she sent it back. . . We have a genuine energy between us."
  • May 2016: Though Rihanna earlier insisted that she's single, rumors flare that she and Drake are giving things yet another try. A source told People that the two had been "secretly dating for months," a report that is fueled by the fact that Drake hopped on stage with Rihanna again during her show in LA. Only time will tell. . .
