The-Dream Got 'Around $15 Million' for Writing Rihanna's 'Umbrella'

Here are five things we've learned from The-Dream's interview with Tim Westwood, ranging from ex-wife Christina Milian, pocketing $15 million for Rihanna's "Umbrella" and the story behind Justin Bieber's "Baby."

While "We Found Love" and "You Da One" are going strong on the Hot 100, Rihanna is getting ready to release the third single from her sixth studio album, "Talk That Talk." On Tuesday night (Jan. 10), the pop singer revealed to her Twitter followers that the album's title track will be the next track from the disc to impact radio.

 

 

"#TALKthatTALK love u guys! Been missin u," Rihanna wrote on Twitter, attaching a black-and-white image of herself crouching against a wall in what is presumably the single artwork. "Talk That Talk" was produced by Stargate, who previously helmed "Only Girl (In The World)" and "What's My Name?" for Rihanna, and features Jay-Z, who teamed up with the Barbadian pop star on the No. 1 smash "Umbrella" in 2007.

"We Found Love" and "You Da One" came in at Nos. 2 and 22 on last week's Hot 100, respectively, with Rihanna releasing a sultry music video for the latter track last month. Meanwhile, "Talk That Talk," Rihanna's full-length follow-up to last year's "Loud," climbs to No. 6 on this week's Billboard 200 albums chart.
