Hip-hop artist Drake has rubbished all rumours of an affair with singer Rihanna, calling it a purely professional association.

The gossip of the chart-topping pair kicked off after they were spotted together in New York, following Rihanna's break up with Chris Brown. But Drake says he's only trying to get Rihanna to record a duet for his next album.

"We're just really good [^] friends. We have great conversations about music, and we're trying to figure out the perfect song we can collaborate on for my album," Contactmusic quoted him as telling the New York [^] Post. "I've only worked with one other female before (Mary J Blige). I hope that Rihanna is onboard, and I'm also looking to work with Sade," he added.
