Travis Barker taught Rihanna to drum

Travis Barker has revealed that he taught Rihanna to play the drums but was quick to deny rumours that the two are dating.

“We've just been friends for probably a year-and-a-half, ever since I taught her how to play the drums, but never romantically,” he told The BoomBox. “I would definitely play on an album [with her] or something like that.”

Barker is currently working up to the release of his first solo album, ‘Give The Drummer Some,’ which is expected to drop next month. It includes appearances from Lupe Fiasco, Pharell Williams, Snoop Dogg, Tom Morello and Busta Rhymes amongst others.
