About this listen

In this episode of BackTrak, producer The Runners pull back the curtain on one of Rihanna’s most celebratory anthems: “Cheers (Drink to That).” Built around a bold Avril Lavigne sample and driven by stadium-sized drums, this record captures the carefree chaos of Rihanna’s Loud era. The Runners take us inside the creative process—how they fused rock textures with island swagger, how Rihanna’s energy in the booth elevated every layer, and why this track became the ultimate toast to resilience and release. From genre-blending production to global party anthem, this is the story of how “Cheers” turned life’s chaos into a celebration.
