Rap-Up.com || New Music: Rihanna f/ Drake

With their rumored romantic relationship splashed all over gossip blogs, Rihanna and Drake forget about the past on the island-flavored “What’s My Name,” the second single off her fifth album Loud (due Nov. 16). The two get playful on wax, with Drizzy heating things up with some lady-loving rhymes and RiRi laying down the qualifications to be her man.

“Yeah, I heard you good with them soft lips/ Yeah you know word of mouth,” raps Drake. “Baby you’re a challenge/ Let’s explore your talents,” responds Rihanna.

“Drake is such a cool guy, man. He’s like one of my great friends,” RiRi told BBC Radio 1Xtra’s Max in a recent interview.

Rihanna filmed a video for the solo version of the Stargate-produced, Ester Dean-penned tune in New York City with director Philip Andelman. “I hope we get to shoot a video for that too,” Drake told MTV News. “I’m really excited about that song.”

Drake ain’t ****. Ciara said MANY times that she loved Find Your Love and he never responded or tried to get involved with Basic Instinct. Now he’s doing a song with Rihanna before CIARA? ugh. this song is terrible btw.

@BassBassBass it isnt that hard to figure out that nobody wants to work with her cause shes wack. Whens the last time an artist has featured her on there song? I’ll wait. Cerror could never bang out hits like this if her life depended on it. Now back to our regular scheduled program……RIHANNA!!!!!

This song is too dope, but they should just go ahead, and shoot a Drake scene for the original version. It’s already a big hit, I like this upon the first listen, unlike lonely girl, Drizzy kilt it, and this is gonna be a smash hit

October 15th, 2010 at 7:19 pm
This is the part. 2/remix of “Say My Name”, I think the original version may be more upbeat.. In the videos of her filming the video for this, the track (although very poor audio quality) sounded more upbeat, like Rude Boy.

If you notice that the more Rihanna sings in her natural dialect or genre of island flava… the better she sounds. When she strays.. her voice gets weak. Your heritage is YOUR strength Rihanna…

but when you record a song sentence for sentence it always sounds stronger.. I want to see her perform it live and still sound this full strong.
