Rihanna and Drake are not "officially" dating, but rumors suggest that there's definitely some sort of romance going on between the two hip-hop superstars. Perhaps RiRi is even jealous of Drizzy's other "side chicks"... but there's one songstress she apparently doesn't have to worry about "stealing" her man - Jhene Aiko!

Rumors initially suggested that Aiko "hooked-up" with the YMCMB singer while on-tour earlier this year. But according to "The Worst" crooner, that's blatantly untrue. Oh - and she never dated Childish Gambino, either. In a recent interview with Hot 97, Aiko reveals her relationship status with the two rappers (via HipHopDX):

"I met Donald [Gambino] right after I did Jimmy Kimmel the first time with Big Sean. We had the same publisher. His close friend and business partner was really close friends with my brother. He basically set up that we would have dinner. But it was like a dinner after Kimmel, everyone that was there came. We just met and talked about working together on music. I needed a verse for 'Bed Peace' and no one was sending me verses back. I was like, 'I actually have a song.' I wasn't really well versed in his music but my oldest sister is a fan. After we worked together on that, he was super willing to understand the music. He was so into it. His creative mind is something I can respect. He directed my new video, 'The Pressure.' I'm in his new video that is not out yet, 'Telegraph.' We come up with really creative things together. He has an interesting mind.

We [referring to Drake] met through Jas Prince. I was signed to Sony Epic, which B2K was signed to. And I opened up the Scream tour and I hosted it when I was like 14. I met Jas at one of the shows, and ever since then we were friends. He ended up wanting to work with me on the mixtape, So Far Gone. I knew him from Degrassi because my boyfriend at the time, his little sister watched it. They're like, 'Yeah, he's a rapper now.' I'm like, 'Okay, cool.' I went in, I was pregnant at the time, but I wasn't letting anyone know. My friend came in to write for me 'cause at the time I wasn't really giving my energy into other people's music. If it was like a feature, I was like, 'Okay, someone else can write it 'cause I have to save the good stuff for myself.' That's how I was looking at it but now I don't look at it like that. In that session he heard a song called 'July.' He decided to take the verses off and just leave my hook...Fast forward to him working on Nothing Was The Same, he DM'ed like, 'We should work on a song together for real' since he heard the mixtape. We got in the studio. Me, him, and 40 picked out a track, I took it home, wrote to it, sent it. Then he wrote to it."

So simply friends and business partners - not lovers.

However, Aiko does have a boyfriend... is she referring to popular music producer Dot Da Genius? Rumors suggest that the couple "secretly" tied the knot not too long ago, but she remains mum on such wedding buzz.
