Wonder what it is like to meet pop royalty Rihanna? Well Krept & Konan swung by the Capital XTRA studios to let us know!

The rap duo joined Robert Bruce and Shayna Marie this morning to chat about their new track 'Smooth Lovin' with Popcaan, their upcoming album and their recent interaction with Rihanna.

"We've been gone for so long, it's been nerve-wracking to come back," said the duo, who have returned to music, and are set to release their first album in five years early next year.

When host Shayna Marie asked the rap duo what it was like to meet the Fenty founder earlier this year at an event in London, Konan said how "sick" the experience was.

"It was sick, just to know that she actually acknowledges us, she’s been aware of us for a minute."

He continued: "Krept’s been rapping about her for a while, so it's like the final boss moment."
