Wed Jan 11 2012 by Robbie Daw
Apparently all the clatter about Kanye West featuring on a single remix of Rihanna's next single "Talk That Talk" was just that — a bunch of talk. Or was it? As far as we can tell from the single art, which RiRi tweeted out last night, there's no mention of her pal Yeezy. Regardless (Ri-gardless?), here's hoping the Jay-Z-assisted tune fares better on the charts than previous single "You Da One", which is is currently floundering at the ho-hum position of #22 on the Hot 100.
