After spending the last few years being overlooked by the casual listener, it seems Contemporary R&B is finally reaping the fruits of its Frank Ocean fueled labor.

For, thanks to the public’s renewed interest in the genre and a well executed push by her label ‘EPIC‘, Ciara‘s ‘Body Party‘ has found itself on its way to the chart heavens…selling 20,000 units in the last week.

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?!
