Drake, Rihanna leak snippet comes to light amid 'R9' delay buzz

Rihanna and Drake remained in on and off relationship for few years, collaborating on various hit projects together during this time.

Although the 37-year-old singer is now happy in her relationship with ASAP Rocky, a leaked snippet came to light which is reportedly a collaborative of the Barbadian singer and Drake.

Recently, a clip of a female chorus went viral which is said to be the voice of the Diamonds hitmaker, who has been delaying her R9 album for nearly a decade.

However, it turned out to be a snippet from The Views era’s 9 track with one X user pointing out that it is “the outro” of the song.

Another netizen was left guessing, posing a question on the platform: “Wonder when this was made?,” while a third speculated: “That probably SZA, it sound[s] like her that ain’t Rihanna.”

The One Dance crooner is looking forward to put out his new studio album Iceman this year after teasers for the project went viral in 2025.

It was reported that the musician’s last trip to shoot for his new songs was at a strip club, however, he is yet to address the rumours.

On the other hand, the Wild Thoughts singer gave birth to her third child with ASAP and is being called out for putting off her album.
