Rihanna Hot New 'R8' Album Release 2015: Check Out 'Only If for a Night' Teaser [Watch]
Dior has released a teaser video for Rihanna's brand new track, titled "Only If for a Night," off her highly anticipated eighth studio album.
Back in January, the Barbadian star reportedly registered the song, which samples "Only If For A Night" off Florence + The Machine's 2011 hit album "Ceremonials."
According to a snapshot surfaced online, via PopJustice, the song information database credits the British indie rock band's lead vocalist Florence Welch and producer Paul Epworth, as well as Rihanna herself (Robyn Fenty) and Christian Keyon Jr. Boggs.
"I was so thrilled 'cause I'm such a huge fan," Welch expressed her excitement about the collaboration, during a February interview with Kat Corbett of KROQ. "She sent me the song and I said, 'Of course.' It's a sample. ... I love it when stuff like that happens. When people re-imagine your music, I love that when it has all these different forms."
In the snippet of the high-fashion brand's recently released short film, which sees the "B*tch Better Have My Money" singer walking up the stairs inside Versailles at night, seconds of "Only If for a Night" is heard in the background at the end.
The latest ad is the fourth installment of Dior's popular "Secret Garden" video series, and RiRi is the first-ever black ambassador in the 69-year history of the French fashion house.
According to Women's Wear Daily, the complete footage is scheduled to premiere on Monday, May 18.
Last month, the "American Oxygen" crooner detailed her latest project, possibly titled "R8." During a press day for her animated DreamWorks film "Home," she revealed to MTV that she wanted to "focus on things that felt real, that felt soulful, that felt forever," admitting that many of her songs from the past have not aged with her.
So far, Rihanna dropped "FourFiveSeconds" featuring Kanye West and Paul McCartney, "B*tch Better Have My Money" and "American Oxygen," as well as the "Home" soundtrack "Towards the Sun" and a teaser of "Higher" -- all expected to be on her upcoming record.
