Via NeonLimelight: Rapper Royce Da 5’9″ made the Twitterverse go absolutely crazy when he dropped the now infamous line “Hi Rihanna” (it’s a trending topic on Twitter for over 2 days now) during the Shady 2.0 cypher at the 2011 BET Hip Hop awards.

“Hi Rihanna, is Nicki living with you? Let me know so I can buy binoculars and telescopes. Hi Rihanna, I don’t need to know you better. You tell me you love my music again, we go together. Bye Rihanna.”

With the verse becoming larger than life, an explanation on why he decided to name-drop the pop princess was needed. During an interview on BET’s 106 & Park, the Detroit-bred rapper talked about how the line came to be.

Kuk Harrell, who co-wrote Rihanna’s hit song “Umbrella” tells HollywoodLife.com in an exclusive interview:

“In addition to touring, we are recording Rihanna’s new album. We have a portable studio that we set up at the different hotels that we are staying at. We set up shop anywhere in the hotel. Rihanna is an amazing talent. She’s smart. She’s so on point. She knows great songs and most importantly she knows what’s a great song for her!” He adds, “Before we went on the European leg of Rihanna’s Loud tour, we started recording the album in Los Angeles. Rihanna likes to work late hours, so she would come into the studio at 9:00 p.m. and work until 6:00 a.m.” Kuk says, “If I could produce Rihanna singing a duet with anyone it would be with Justin Bieber. That would be a blast. It would be so much fun because both of them are such great personalities.”

Rihanna’s sixth album titles Talk That Talk is due on Nov. 21, 2011.
