R&B chanteuse Ciara is wasting no time getting back to business.

The new mother has been hard at work on her new studio album, which will serve as the follow-up to last year’s self-titled LP.

And she’s enlisted hitmakers to shepherd the project – namely Rock City (who is an A&R’ing the as yet untitled set) and Pop maestro Dr. Luke.

A consistent hit vendor, the Dr. has prescribed smashes for the likes of Katy Perry, Pink, Britney Spears, Rihanna, and more.
