In 2009, Rihanna and Drake dated for a short period of time. Rihanna was fresh out of a relationship with Chris Brown. Despite ending on bad terms, she was still hung up on him. Drake was also fresh out a relationship.

Because of this, the couple did not last very long, not making one year. Very rarely did the two ever mention each other. Entertainment magazines and gossip sites tried to pair them off. Still, the former couple did not interact.

When Rihanna announced her Loud album, she had two major Young Money surprises. Following her split from Drake, Nicki Minaj was very critical of Rihanna and offered to diss her. But, after officially meeting, Nicki Minaj hit it off well with Rihanna. The two became such good friends that they recorded two songs for Loud. Rihanna also announced she would be recording with Drake, who provided the rap vocals to "What's My Name?"

The song has become a major hit and an anthem for females around the world. Reportedly, the song will live on at the Grammys. Ever since making this hit, Rihanna and Drake have started a close friendship and they will reunite in Los Angeles to perform "What's My Name?" for the Grammys.
