Will Rihanna and Eminem make a collaboration? According to several reports, Rihanna may be releasing a new album entitled "Lost Files" this November 25 while Eminem has provided teasers for his new album named "Shady XV."
The rumors about Rihanna's upcoming albums started in a post published by the website Envy the DJ.
The website even provided a "blurry photo" which showed the list of songs the alleged album will contain.
The leaked photo showed that some of the songs will be in collaboration with other famous singers such as Eminem, Drake, Big Sean, and Nicki Minaj.
The upcoming album will be named "Lost Files," the photo showed. However, the leaked photo also revealed that new album which would be under record label Def Jam Recordings, SRP Music Group, and Roc Nation Recordings is still "subject to revision."
The leaked photo also showed that the new album will be unveiled through a press release to be issued on November 4 this year but the official release date will be on November 25.
As shown in the leaked photo, the track list will be composed of 14 songs. The titles of the songs are "Bold," "Trouble," "Ain't No Drama," "Barz," "A Drug and A Dream," "All Night," "Lovin, Fallin, Dyin," "Tattered Heart," "Real Talk," "Hall of Flames," "Pray 4 Life," "Oceans," "Veins," and "Lost Files."

It was also revealed that the song "Lost Files" will be sung by Rihanna with famous rapper and music producer Eminem.
The song entitled "Barz" will be in collaboration with well-known rapper and songwriter Nicki Minaj while the song entitled "Real Talk," will be in collaboration with Canadian rapper and songwriter Drake. In the past, Drake and Rihanna have already collaborated in the song "Take Care." The song was included in the "Take Care" album of Drake released in 2011.
Another song entitled "Pray 4 Life" will be in collaboration with Big Sean, the leaked photo revealed.
A Deluxe Edition of the album, the leaked photo revealed, will also include three other bonus tracks. The three bonus tracks however cannot be identified as the photo was too blurry.
But don't get too excited as a BBC News report claimed that the rumors and speculations about the new album are all untrue. According to BBC News' News Beat, they have contacted the Roc Nation and asked about the alleged album but the record label claimed that the leaked photo online "is totally fake."
