Rihanna and Diplo made headlines just a few weeks ago after the producer revealed the Bajan superstar rejected his music... twice, but things might be turning around for him.

In a new interview with iHeartRadio, Diplo cleared up the controversy - it's all love! - and let slip some MAJOR news about Rihanna's current day-to-day.

View the lyrics
Work, work, work, work, work, work
He said me haffi
Work, work, work, work, work, work
He see me do mi
Dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt
So me put in
Work, work, work, work, work, work

When you ah guh
Learn, learn, learn, learn, learn
Meh nuh cyar if him
Hurt, hurt, hurt, hurt, hurting

Dry me ah desert him
Nuh time to have you lurking
Him ah go act like he nah like it
You know I dealt with you the nicest
Nuh body touch me in the righteous
Nuh botha text me in a crisis

I believed all of your dreams, adoration
You took my heart and my keys and my patience
You took my heart on my sleeve for decoration
You mistaken my love I brought for you for foundation

All that I wanted from you was to give me
Something that I never had
Something that you've never seen
Something that you've never been
Mmm-mmm
But I wake up and act like nothing's wrong
Just get ready fi

Work, work, work, work, work, work
He said me haffi
Work, work, work, work, work, work
He see me do mi
Dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt
So me put in
Work, work, work, work, work, work

Ner ner ner ner ner ner
When you a guh learn, learn learn, learn, learn
Before the tables turn, turn, turn, turn, turn, turn

Beg you something please
Baby don't you leave
Don't leave me stuck here in the streets, uh-huh
If I get another chance to
I will never, no never neglect you

I mean who am I to hold your past against you?
I just hope that it gets to you
I hope that you see this through
I hope that you see this true

What can I say?
Please recognize I'm tryin' babe
I have fi

Work, work, work, work, work, work
He said me haffi
Work, work, work, work, work, work
He see me do mi
Dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt
So me put in
Work, work, work, work, work, work

When you ah guh
Learn, learn, learn, learn, learn
Meh nuh cyar if him
Hurt, hurt, hurt, hurt, hurting

Yeah, okay
You need to get done, done, done, done at work, come over
We just need to slow the motion
Don't give that away to no one
Long distance, I need you
When I see potential I just gotta see it through
If you had a twin, I would still choose you
I don't wanna rush into it, if it's too soon

But I know you need to get done, done, done, done
If you come over
Sorry if I'm way less friendly
I got niggas tryna end me, oh
I spilled all my emotions tonight, I'm sorry
Rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin'
How many more shots until you're rollin'?

We just need a face to face
You could pick the time and the place
You spent some time away
Now you need to forward and give me all the

Work, work, work, work, work, work
He said me haffi
Work, work, work, work, work, work
He see me do mi
Dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt, dirt
So me put in
Work, work, work, work, work, work

When you ah guh
Learn, learn, learn, learn, learn
Meh nuh cyar if him
Hurt, hurt, hurt, hurt, hurting

Mmm-mmm-mmm
Mmm-mmm-mmm
Work, work, work, work, work, work
Mmm-mmm-mmm

Is she designing the next Puma collection? Filming another movie? Maybe taking a well-deserved break? Wrong, wrong, and so very wrong!

Album number nine is coming, Navy.

IT'S REALLY HAPPENING. THE QUEEN IS ABOUT TO RIH-TURN.

Diplo's actual words were, "We talked a little bit because she's writing a lot of new music right now for her next project and, hopefully, we can connect."

That's nice and all, Dip, but we're a bit busy screaming over the news that Rihanna is currently WRITING FOR HER NEW ALBUM.

The 'Wild Thoughts' singer has barely been away from the charts but it's been 20 months since she dropped her last album, the still-fresh and timeless Anti, and that's just 20 months too long for us.

After dropping four albums in three years between 2009 and 2012, Rihanna kept fans waiting the same amount of time for Anti, so we're hoping this means the next one will come quicker.

The Major Lazer producer knows better than to give away exact details of a pop queen's music, although he did hint about the reggae direction of the album.

"I know that we both have the same affinity for dancehall and reggae and things like that. I know she knows she's a fan of our [Major Lazer's] music."

And will their beats be good enough this time? "You always gotta to be on your toes and work harder and she made me feel that way and I love her to death."

Sounds like this might be the perfect time...
