Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Birthday Cake. By Songfacts®.

This 78 second, steamy album interlude finds Rihanna getting downright filthy as she expresses her desire to have spontaneous sex. In case you haven't noticed the cake in question is not one you stick candles on, but a metaphor for a certain region of the female anatomy.

The Bajan singer is not the first pop artist to indulge in some birthday-themed naughtiness, though Jeremih was more upfront with the title of his 2009 hit "Birthday Sex."

The song was helmed by The-Dream together with Kosine and Tuo, who are the production/ writing team known collectively as Da Internz.
