which song did he send rihanna?

Back in 2015 it was reported rihanna secured a prince song on what became later her ANTI album.

She probably rejected his song as it was not released.

Anybody knows which song he offered her if at all?

Love on the Brain has a very familar scream in the background just after the 3 minute mark (around 3:08-3:10).

He should have sent Vavoom. She could have had a big hit with a cover of that imo.

I was listening to that song a few days ago and was like: It kinda sounds prince-ish

Did you see her covering Darling Nikki? I feel like she was born to cover that specific song.

Not sure when this was made, but this unreleased Rihanna song either was made by Prince or someone trying to sound like him. It's called Sexuality.

sounds like what a classic early 80s prince protege song might sound like in 2010.

Prince had no involvement in it, but Kiss It Better sounds a lot like him.
A certain kind of mellow.

I've wanted a collaboration between the two so badly. At first listen I thought Love On the Brain & Kiss It Better had Prince vibes. I remember back in 2010 when the Sexuality demo leaked, in the years since I found a fan made mix of Controversy and Rihannas Sexuality and I still bump it to this day. Guess that's the most we will get of the two...

thanks for all the input

I also dig the prince vibes in tracks mentioned here but apparently no shred of evidence he was involved.

Her cover of Darling Nikki was very good, caught me by surprise when i saw her live a good 8 years ago

The Rihanna wiki says... "It has also been theorized that this demo was given to Justin Timberlake and passed onto Ciara for her song Love, Sex & Magic".

Cool anyway though! I don't think Prince was official involved (he had moved away from that sound by 2008-2010), but it's neat.

A certain kind of mellow.
