We didnвЂ™t even care if it had anything to do with whatвЂ™s going on right now we were just doing something that we thought was cool for ourselves. That was really the idea when we were creating the track. Being in this era of trap-dominated music, I was like, вЂLetвЂ™s make something thatвЂ™s a little outside the box and makes you want to dance and be happy, and makes the women want to turn up.вЂ™ Everybody wanted to dance when dancehall music came on. We were talking about the vibe from back in the day, how dancehall music used to make people feel and make the girls dance.

That one came about by just having a conversation with a few producers that I work with, Allen Ritter and Sevn Thomas. One of the songвЂ™s producers, Allen Ritter, told Genius that the song originally came together at a pool party at DrakeвЂ™s house.Д«oth official вЂњWorkвЂќ videos were released on February 22, 2016. On January 26th, Power 106 DJ Justin Credible tweeted that the collaboration between Drake and Rihanna would be coming sooner than anticipated. Snippets of вЂњWorkвЂќ began to circulate in January 2016 after the pair were spotted shooting a music video in an L.A. We would go to in the Caribbean and just dance and drink and smoke and flirt.вЂќ On вЂњWorkвЂќ co-star Drake, Rihanna added: вЂњEverything he does is so amazing. Because thatвЂ™s how we speak in the Caribbean. You get what IвЂ™m saying, but itвЂ™s not all the way perfect. Rihanna sings in Jamaican Patois throughout, which she spoke about in VogueвЂ™s April 2016 cover story: This narrative is similar to Rihanna and DrakeвЂ™s previous collaborations, 2010вЂ™s вЂњWhatвЂ™s My Name?вЂќ and 2011вЂ™s вЂњTake Care.вЂќ On вЂњWork,вЂќ Rihanna seeks a deep, meaningful connection, however the male character she sings to (played by Drake) is only interested in sex.
