Rihanna samples the xx on new album

While Drake is using a sample of Jamie xx’s remix of Gil Scott-Heron’s “I’ll Take Care of U” on the Rihanna-powered title track from his new album Take Care, the Caribbean songstress is also adding some influences by the iconic UK indie pop collective. Point in case, Rih Rih samples the xx’s “Intro” on a track called “Drunk on Love” on her upcoming album Talk That Talk, which is out November 21. Listen to a short preview of “Drunk on Love” below as well as “Intro.”
