“I’m super, super excited about my album,” said Ciara, whorecentlyopened several dateson Bruno Mars’24K Magictour. “I’ve been having so much fun working on it. I actually stated recording a little bit of it before I gave birth to Sienna so that was really fun; dancing around with my big belly in the studio. But I’ve been working on it for a little while, and it’s really coming together.”
Elliott, who released the solo single “I’m Better” in 2017, recently appeared on Ariana Grande’s “Borderline” and joined Busta Rhymes and Kelly Rowland for the all-star collaboration “Get It.”
