Ciara is back and full of love for her fans! She released her new album titled ‘CiCi’ on Friday, August 22nd, 2025. This is an independent project that was done on her own terms. The project is well received by lifetime supporters whom are still rolling with her since her breakout 2004 hit “Goodies”!
The “CiCi” album was given birth from the “CiCi EP” released back in 2023 that delivered two extended play hit singles “How We Roll” featuring Chris Brown and “Forever” featuring Lil Baby. Ciara now signed to her independent label, Beauty Mark Entertainment, shared with her fans on Instagram that being an Independent Artist is a beautiful journey of freedom, and the ability to explore the versatility of her projects without any pushback.
The Grammy winning artist spoke about her independence in the caption announcing her new album on Instagram.
Here is an excerpt of what she shared:
This album right here is my love letter. A celebration of the journey-and more importantly, a thank you to you, my Day 1s and Day 21s. You’ve stuck by me through every era, every evolution, and every independent leap of faith. Let’s be real-being independent isn’t for the faint of heart, but y’all? Y’all gave me the courage to keep pushing, to keep dreaming, and to keep dancing like nobody’s watching (even though millions of you are, lol)…Truth is, this season of life has been about forging my own path and tapping deeper into my inner drive. No label, no limits-just full-on freedom and faith. It’s been a journey of unlearning, rebuilding, and reclaiming what success looks like on my own terms.
The 2025 “CiCi” full length album features Chris Brown, Big Freedia, Tyga, BossMan Dlow, Latto, Lil Baby, Jazze Pha and Busta Rhymes, Lil Baby, Normani, and Teyana Taylor! With feel good tracks, CiCi will turn any bad day into a happy fulfilling experience. Great vibes and great energy is what is needed to keep us motivated!
Ciara curated an album release party at Red Lobster in Times Square this Friday in celebration of her new album. With the support of her children and her Husband, New York Giants Quarterback, Russell Wilson, this was an unforgettable experience for her fans!
Royal Bey Media got a chance to listen to the full album and loved every track from beginning to end! Ciara even connected with her fans as she explained she loved the collab with Red Lobster which is one of her favorite restaurants. CiCi loves their signature cheddar biscuits!
The beautiful singer also shared her love of everyone that came out to support her and gave her appreciation. Light bites were given throughout the immersive experience including fried shrimp, hush puppies, fried calamari and more!
