Rihanna and Maroon 5 Team Up for a Collab
Rihanna and Maroon 5 are teaming up for an ultra-glam remake of “If I Never See Your Face Again”, which will appear on the re-releases of both big-name artists.
“We’re both re-releasing our albums — mine’s out June 17,” Rihanna told MTV News. “This is the only collaboration on my re-release, because I always wanted to work with Maroon 5. They’re one of my favorite bands. When they called me to do this record with them, I was so honored.”
“The song was basically done, but we wanted to try something different, so we had her come in and do bits and pieces,” Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine added. “It came together so quick. The only other collaboration I had done before was with Kanye, and it was the same way. It sounds cheesy, but if the magic is there, if the chemistry is there, you don’t even have to think about it.”
Adam and Rihanna give MTV a behind-the-scenes look at the new video and open up about their experiences. Check it.

YAY.
YAY.
Could be interesting, awesome, can’t wait to hear it!
YAY FOR MAROON 5. nay for rihanna.
I see she is still using sex to sale her self. I would just once like to see her do something were she is not half naked. Rihanna has no tune, I cant remember this song but it’s either slow or does not require much skill on her part. She is not a strong singer at all.
So I see she will be half naked as usual.
This is going to be so HOTTTTTTT! lov*lov*lov*lov*Adam Levine lov his voice. I like Rihanna to so I’m so looking forward to this. I hope it don’t take long to hit tv. M5 video seem to take so long before they are aired.
I think it sounds very interesting
ENOUGHALREADY…Don’t every artist use sex to sell their whole career let alone a video. Most females dye their hair blonde, put blue contacts in their eyes, get half naked and lay around in the video. So why does she get slammed. What about men? they do the same. John Mayer’s whole career was built around making women think they had a chance with him, he wooed his female fans. So why pick on some artist and bring out that fact when the whole industry operates in this manner.
Rihanna is a *****!
YAY!! I love Rihanna and she looks HOTT.

@ Jan….Their whole careers? No….Maybe if they are one of them that sounds like born stars than Yes!!! Is that what she is now? I thought she was a singer?
At the beginning be somewhat suggestive no bumping and grinding just enough to get you over to enhance what you got and I’m not talking about her body I’m talking about that “Voice” without being to trashy but to continue over and over with the same thing No!!!
If anybody listened to that man and thought they had a chance with him because of some songs something is wrong with that person bottom line. I know what you are saying, you are trying to make a point but there has to be a stopping point.
They have to many clothing out there now to make you look sexy in a classy way this girl goes for trashy all the time and if that’s the only way she can do it she is in the wrong business. At what point will it end with her. That’s why she is so badly talked about, she is the only artist I know of that has gotten all bad reviews in the states and out of the states. What artist has based their whole career on being sold by sex?
What artist???
Have you heard of Madonna??….enough said
NAY NAY NAY!!.
They both sound like cats on a hot tin roof!
Nay. Why? Ugh…
Oh, and Diddy, Maroon 5 lip sings? Could have fooled me LOL. I’ve seen them live many, many times and I’ve seen Adam be in the middle of a song and mess it up and I’ve also heard him singing then replace lyrics with “Blah, blah, blah” (rehersal). Unless they have special tracks, he doesn’t lip sing.
im excited about the song already and i haven’t heard it yet. But the fact that rihanna and Maroon 5 are collaborating will make it a definite hit.
NAY!!!
Rihanna Can’t sing!!!! Maroon 5 owns!
”I miss old school Maroon5 when they weren’t as popular. They did good music before, with a unique sound
Now their so commerical, and teaming up with ppl like Kanye and Rihanna just makes that point much more evident.”
AMEN!!
Im a huge M 5 fan and watching the video was so disturbing, Even my 7 year iod was wondeing what he was thiking, I hated it.
!! WHATEVER!!
i dont really care. why are there so many thingz about ri ri like c’mon shes not so special.she cant sing she sings through her nose plus she cant dance. and mosty dreesed over rated. and wears too much make-up. and shes a beyonce wanna be. her haircut looks horrible i think its a wig cause it looks like one but anyway why is everyone intrested in celebrates.
