HERE’S the cover for Rihanna‘s eagerly awaited new album, Rated R.

The album, the first since 2007′s Good Girl Gone Bad, features collaborations with Ne-Yo, Justin Timberlake, Tyson Ritter of the All-American Rejects, Drake and Akon.

Rihanna debuted the first track off the album, Russian Roulette, last Tuesday.

The single, written and produced by Ne-Yo, is scheduled to arrive in the physical and digital marketplace on Monday, November 23rd.

Ne-Yo also wrote Rihanna’s 2006 No. 1 hit Unfaithful and dueted with the Grammy-winning singer on the Top 10 smash Hate That I Love You.

“Expect an edgier, almost angrier Rihanna on this one,” Ne-Yo recently said of Rated R .”Rihanna says some things on this album that you’ve never heard her say before.”
