Listen to Rihanna's new song with Chris Brown

Rihanna's much-talked-about single with Chris Brown has found its way online, just days before her full album, "Unapologetic," hits shelves on Monday.

The upbeat pop song - which has alternatively been called "Nobodies Business" on the official track listing that Rihanna tweeted last week - sees Chris and Ri trading verses about a perfect love, one that everyone else should butt out of.

"You'll always be the one that I wanna come home to ... Let me love you and show you how special you are," they sing to each other. "I wanna be your baby, you'll always be my baby, tell me what you want."

Gawker found "Nobody's Business," unlike their prior collaborations earlier this year, to be "an excellent pop song: sublime, clear, catchy."

New York Magazine's Vulture
concurred, noting, "of course it had to be like, really good."

Both HitFix and the Huffington Post note that the track rocks like a Michael Jackson throwback, although HitFix warns that not all listeners may be prepared for such a lovey-dovey exchange between the headline-making pair.

"'Nobody's Business' is a decent song, if you're in a place to hear it," HitFix critiques. HuffPo, meanwhile, calls it "a straight-up smash."

Check it out in the clip above - what do you think?

    Chris Brown is a strong role model for all young men of color. He is arrogant, abusive, self-centered, above the law, quick tempered, lacking maturity, and many other admirable qualities. The women’s rights extremists had better not criticize Mr. Brown. He gets a pass. Wink. Wink.

    Rihanna is a complete joke and frankly stupid for getting back with Chis. When he beats her face into a pulp again I don't want to hear her nonsense because she apparently hasn't learned from the first time. But hey like they both said it's nobody's business. It's funny how it was everyone's business when she looked like a monster. These stars are all jokes. #Thissongsucks

    A LARGE PERCENTAGE OF YOUNG ADULTS ARE IN ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIPS....SO IF YOU CHOSE TO GO BACK
    TO THE MAN WHO BEAT YOU TO A PULP THIS IS YOUR BUSINESS OK...MAYBE YOU SHOULD HAVE KEPT THIS AS
    YOUR PRIVATE SONG BETWEEN YOU AND HIM...BUT NOT TO OTHER IMPRESSIONABLE YOUNG ONES WHO THINKS
    A BEAT-DOWN IS OK- BECAUSE IT IS NOT....BUT THIS IS HOW PEOPLE MAKE MONEY...THEY KNOW PEOPLE WANT
    TO BE LIKE THEM SOOOO MUCH THEY WILL BUY THIS STUFF....
