As earlier reported, Ciara sprung a surprise on fans tonight and revealed new single ‘I’m Out’ featuring Young Money maven Nicki Minaj.

And with excitement still in the air following the gritty cut’s premiere, the 27-year-old has unwrapped its accompanying artwork — which you can peep above.

‘I’m Out’ serves as the second single to be lifted from the stage blazer’s new self-titled album (due July 9th via Epic). Its predecessor ‘Body Party’ is a certified Urban hit and even managed mainstream success after achieving a Billboard Hot 100 peak of #34 (major, in today’s climate, for ANY R&B song).

Great to have Ms. Harris “back”, right?!

Your thoughts?

Having made quite the career out of “shock and awe”, Rihanna looks poised to continue such practice with the video for her latest single ‘Pour It Up’.

The “ratchet anthem”, which appears on The Noise’s latest album ‘Unapologetic’, will be paired with a “befitting visual” – if newly shared set pics are anything to go by.
