Rihanna Previews New Song 'Kiss It Better'

(Radio.com) Rihanna has been teasing her new album, R8, but now she's giving fans a very, very (did we say very?) small taste of her new single, "Kiss It Better." RiRi took to Instagram to give a few seconds snippet of the ballad. We don't get much except for a wailing '80s power ballad guitar and Rihanna singing, "Kiss, kiss it better baby."

In the clip we see a guy with a guitar, believed to be her touring guitarist, Nuno Bettencourt, who is known for his band Extreme. This would certainly explain the video's caption "phuck wit nuno" and the track's very '80s, early '90s sound.

Someone else is also seen at the computer figuring out the final touches of the track, asking questions about the song's intro and whether they should go back to that instead.

So when will Rihanna actually drop this single for real? Or, even better, when will R8 be announced? We're not sure, but the singer is certainly having fun teasing us.

Rihanna even took to Twitter to play with the hype, writing, "So where is the #R8 starter pack?" only to reveal a photo of an older lady wearing a turquoise hat with a metal plate reading "Bad Gal."
