1 IN 10: RIHANNA Feat DRAKE-WHAT'S MY NAME?

('1 IN 10' is a new series that looks at the best track of the month, here's Novembers)

Your cure for those winter blues is here. Tune in to any R&B or pop station and leave it 15 minutes, no doubt you'll hear 'What's My Name'. Now flick over and repeat, now what do you have? Same song. From the first beat and trademark Rihanna 'Ooh na na' this song feels like your back in Summer, whether your in Barbados, Los Angeles or foggy old London town. After the success of 'Only Girl (In The World)' Rihanna looks to keep her new release 'Loud' screaming with her stellar second single. The woman of the moment keeps giving hit after hit and if that wasn't enough the man of the year Drake (check GQ if you don't know) provides a great set of bars to unleash this scorching hot summertime sensation. The Canadian rapper keeps it heated with lines like, "Good weed, white wine/I come alive in the night time/Okay, away we go/Only thing we have on is the radio". Sure it's a wonder this song wasn't released a few months back but in a real cold winter, it's the perfect hotter than July medicine during flu season. 4.5/5. TIM DAVID HARVEY.
