Since the release of her first single, ‘I Bet’, back in January, Ciara has been kicking things further into motion in regards to her 6th album. Titled Jackie, Ciara has gone on record saying that this project is her most personal yet as she is now able to see the world through the eyes of her mother, Jackie, since she gave birth last year to her son. In a sit-down interview with fashion journalist, Kate Waterhouse, Ciara revealed further details about her upcoming album, Jackie, along with the month in which it’ll be released.
Tell me about your coming album.
It will come out in May and my album is called Jackie, which is my mum’s name. It’s inspired by how I can now see the world through her eyes, being a mum, and so that’s where the title came from.
What is the process for you when putting together an album?
Making an album for me, I always have a vision of what I want to do, but this time I was super specific because I feel like it’s such an important time for me, personally, professionally and musically. I am doing everything I could dream of for this album. Sonically I am so content; I had my dream team of producers who I always wanted to work with.
Certainly, Ciara is more focused in terms of the record’s sound and what contents she wants to display in this next chapter of her music career. If that wasn’t exciting enough, Ciara’s new music video for ‘I Bet’ will be premiering tomorrow on Extra at 7 PM EST. It’ll be interesting to hear what Ciara has been cooking up this past year. Roll on, May!
