On September 28, 2009, it was revealed the Ciara was well into production of her fourth studio album. In an interview with Rap-Up, Tricky Stewart announced that he and production partner The-Dream had spent the summer recording exclusively with Ciara, and that they would be executive-producing the whole album along with Ciara. When asked about the direction of the album, Stewart stated, "this record obviously is gonna have tempo to it, but I think it's gonna have even more substance than the last record". When asked to describe the sound of the album Stewart said "It's just her returning back to her strongest form. It's gonna be Ciara at her best. It's gonna be indicative of how much people love that first album [Goodies] and how people love "Promise" and other records when she's had those really serious connections." The trio, at that time, had already completed around 14 songs for the project, and while the album was first targeted for a 2009 release, it will now be slated for early 2010 to avoid rushing the album-making process. On December 9, 2009, Ciara talked more to MTV News about the upcoming album, saying that the album will be very hot and that she's working very hard, to give her fans what they want and more. Ciara also said that she will be touching on her Goodies roots with the new album.




She's like, the only other artist I absolutely
adore besides Jen.(my biggest wish is a Jen/Ciara collabo) But with that being said, I was EXTREMELY disappointed with her last album "Fantasy
Ride".
I mean, it wasn't horrible, it was just very
inconsistent. It sounded like they just threw a bunch of hot beats together and called it an album. You can tell she had very little to do with the songs.
