Ciara is continuing to prove that she is an unstoppable force and she celebrates aid status on the cover of Ebony Magazine’s September/October issue.
Introduced to the world as a potent performer, the 36-year-old has expanded her empire and is making major moves as a businesswoman.
Indeed, she’s launched fashion line LITA, released fragrances, penned a children’s book, and recently unveiled a new skincare line – OAM (On A Mission).
Still, CiCi has music firmly on her mind. Namely her upcoming eighth studio album.
Fans were treated to a taste of the LP with lead single ‘Jump’ and, within her interview feature, the superstar reveals that there’s more tempo on the way.
Head below for pics and insights into Ciara’s next musical chapter…
Speaking on the album (her first since 2019’s ‘Beauty Marks’), the budding mogul said:
“I’m so excited! It’s such a joy and a gift to share my music with the world; I never take it for granted. I love being able to create a project and show everyone what I’ve been vibing to. For my “Jump” record it’s been so great working with [music video director] Dave Meyers to execute my vision. I think one of the greatest things that came out of the pandemic is realizing we’re all much stronger than we thought we were, and we’re all trying to find ways to thrive. The world can never have enough joy, the world can ever never have enough love and the world can definitely never have enough dance.”
As for what fans can expect specifically, she added:
“There’s so much energy in this album because I want to make the world dance—that’s always been my thing. It’s the tempo and beat I’ve been moving to in my music, and the key sentiments I’ve poured into this album. There is an R&B core in these records. To be honest, this album feels nostalgic. It takes me back to my first album in a way that no project I’ve done to this point has before.”
