LOS ANGELES, Feb. 22 (UPI) -- Rihanna and Drake get intimate in the new music video for their single "Work."

Released onto YouTube Monday, the provocative dance video features Rihanna entering a Caribbean themed bar named The Real Jerk where she dances and swings her hips to the song until she comes across Drake.

The pair then get close in the video, which features explicit content, dancing together as Drake raps over the smooth beat as the dimly party continues on in the background.

As the song comes to a close, the video helmed by Director X, transitions into a second full-length video this time directed by Tim Erem. Rihanna and Drake then find themselves in a more private, pink lighted room where they continue to exchange glancing looks and dance close to each other.

"Work" is the singer's first single off her recently released eighth studio album Anti, which debuted on streaming service Tidal back in January.

Announced Monday, Rihanna will be co-headlining the U.K.'s V Festival in August alongside pop star Justin Bieber. Other artists announced for the event include Sia, David Guetta, Faithless, Kaiser Chiefs, Bastille, Little Mix and more.
