The "sound" that you're referring to is a dancehall sound that Drake has been trying to push the past year with Jamaican born producer Boi-1-da. Drake, knowing Rihanna's culture and seeing as this song is more suited for a female lead of course would bring this to Rihanna's attention first. Producers and song writers bring songs to her all the time even when not recording an album. Thats just how the industry work. He brought "R.I.P" to her first but then she turned it down and Rita Ora recorded it. She doesn't need him for a hit. Its not like she's incapable of doing this on her own.

They weren't saying **** about Drake being desperate for a hit back in 2011-12 when Rihanna was dominating charts.
It's just another reason to throw shade at Rihanna and the era.
