Rihanna's "Kiss It Better" is transformed by Montreal beatmaker, Kaytranada.

Kaytranada just dropped his debut album, 99.9% earlier this year, and while it found him collaborating with an impressive roster of like-minded artists, Rihanna was unfortunately not among them. Today, we've received the next best thing to an official collaboration, as the Montreal soundsmith tweaks Rih's recent single, "Kiss It Better," removing its synthesized, Prince-like guitar, and replacing it with deep grooves, pushing Rih's tenor into a higher register in the process. It's the perfect dancehall-ready companion piece to the original, and could possibly appear on his upcoming mixtape, 0.01%, which is expected to drop in the near future. Do we need Rihanna and Kay in the studio together for R9?

Quotable Lyrics:
Been waitin' on that sunshine, boy
I think I need that back
Can't do it like that
No one else gon' get it like that
So why argue? You here, here to take me back
Who cares, when it feels like crack?
Boy, ya know that you always do it right
