They also recorded a second part to the tune, which appeared on Rihanna's fifth studio album, Loud. She then enlisted Eminem for Numb, a song from her seventh studio release, Unapologetic, in 2012.
Their latest collaboration came from Eminem's 2013 record, The Marshall Mathers LP 2. The song also peaked at No. 1 on Billboard and the video has garnered over 130 million views on YouTube to date.
