Rap-Up.com || Rihanna on Katy Perry Collaboration: ‘It’s Gonna Happen’

In addition to connecting with her former beau Chris Brown on the remixes to “Birthday Cake” and “Turn Up the Music,” Rihanna is eyeing a collaboration with her BFF Katy Perry.

“We have been working on this for years,” the pop starlet told “Access Hollywood” while promoting her film Battleship. “We still are trying to make a song together. She is one of my favorite musicians, as well as one of my favorite people in the industry. She’s very uncalculated, very sure of herself, and that’s something that’s very rare in this industry.”

But don’t expect a release anytime soon. “The song will probably come out in a while,” she added. “I won’t say it’s happening right now, but it’s gonna happen.”

Despite their busy schedules, the besties still try to find time to spend together. “We hang out. We have dinner or bachelorette parties. Whenever we’re in the same city, we try to do something, whether it’s see each other for five minutes for a hug or partying all night at some random after-party—we try to hang out as much as we can.”

RiRi, who has released six albums in six years, is not currently working on a new project. “I have not started working on new music,” she said. “I started working on the new sound, but I haven’t really started recording yet. This year, we kind of left a little room to play in other playing fields like movies, acting, fashion.”

@Audrey Hepburn, Classier you mean the girl who talks about having sex with a guy that “End Of Time” stomped her, someone that argues with fans on twitter, The talented one who song Mariah Carey’s “Hero” and sounded like a teenage book breaking into puberty, with bad notes, range, pitch/ or the one with the stiff dance moves, or the girl who looks ddrag without make up. I’m confused.

@KillBill92, She means the girl with 11 #1 songs on Billboard, the most downloaded female artist of all time, Grammy winner, etc…I don’t think you should be here hatin’ on Rihanna. You’re a fan of “classy Beyoncé” hahaha that’s not what she would want you to do!

@Trent, I agree, I used to buy her albums until Loud. I prefer a more urban Rihanna. I have to admit though, Talk That Talk was a step in the right direction with tracks like Birthday Cake and Watch And Learn, but I’m so tired of the pop sound on tracks like We Found Love. The whole industry needs to find a new niche.

Yes a Rihanna & Katy collaboration: I’ve been waiting for this ever since Rihanna said she did a song with Katy that may end up on Loud or Teenage Dream(that was way back in 2010!),maybe it’s that song or they will record a brand new song together! I would love for it be something out of the box for Katy! She dabbled in dub-step on Dressin Up! I wouldn’t care if it’s a fist pumping dance song, But what would be cooler is a dark gritty dub-step type song like Red Lipstick!

New Beyonce, no way. Rih is her own person. She’ll never have the skill that Beyonce has with her voice, but she works with what she has and does a great job at it.

No freakin waaay!?! This has got to happen! It will be an epic record!!! And a video! I really hope this is true. :) Katy sounds like a really cool girl. That’s good Rih has an industry friend she can trust.

And I gotta say, Rihanna looks SO good with her hair like that :)
