Stripped down and tender, “FourFiveSeconds” is an acoustic collaboration featuring Sir Paul’s minimal backdrop guitar with guest vocals by Kanye West. The release marks the second collaboration between West and McCartney, who released their track “Only One” on New Years Day.

“FourFiveSeconds” is available for download on iTunes now. While no date has been confirmed, an eighth Rihanna album (the follow-up to 2012’s Unapologetic) is expected to drop sometime this year.
