Listen to a Preview of Rihanna's New Single, "Higher"

Rihanna shared two snippets of a new single off her upcoming album R8 today on Instagram. Like "FourFiveSeconds," "Higher," features a more stripped-down sound from Queen Rih and her voice has never sounded stronger. The strings and the classic soul feel make you want to slow dance in the dark, possibly while high-as-hell and wearing reindeer antlers. R8 can't come soon enough. Listen below.
