Rihanna Defends Collaboration With Chris Brown As ‘Innocent’

March 16, 2012 |  by  |  SHUTUPCANDI, SLOW CLAP, Thuglife  |  Share

As you all know the media will put TEN on everything! “OMG, SHE IS BACK WITH CHRIS”…”JESUS CHRIST AND RICE SAY IT AINT SO, AFTER HE POUNDED HER FACE, SHE SHOULDN’T GO BACK TO HIM.” I am with Rih Rih on this one, RELAX folks it’s just a music, although we all know they soooooo want to get back together. They’re just keeping it on wax for now. Rihanna stopped by the Ryan Seacrest show and discussed the collaboration stating he is simply “the hottest R&B artist out right now”.  She went on to say “There shouldn’t be a divide, you know?” she said. “It’s music and it’s innocent.”

    “We did two records,” she told radio host Ryan Seacrest. “One for my fans, one for his fans, and that way our fans can come together … I reached out to him about doing Birthday Cake because that’s the only person that really … it made sense to do the record. Just as a musician, despite everything else, that was going to be the person. You know I thought about rappers, and I’ve done that so many times, and the hottest R&B artist out right now is Chris Brown. So I wanted him on the track, and then in turn he was like ‘Why don’t you do the remix to my track?’ and it was a trade-off.”
    In an interview last month, Birthday Cake’s co-producer, The-Dream, said the decision to work with Brown was Rihanna’s to make. “The same questions that went through my mind … had to have gone through hers,” he told MTV. “I know she’s not crazy. So my thought was, ‘You’ve been thinking about this, you’ve already thought it out, so evidently you know what reaction you gonna get’.” There you have it folks! Now be merry and enjoy some CAKE!
