I toured with him so it was great having him on this record with me.” He also did “Can’t Leave ‘Em Alone” which features 50 Cent. A lot of the tracks on this album are energetic like “Make It Last Forever,” a real cool dance/party cut that Rodney (Jerkins) produced. “Pharrell (Williams) said he had a song for me but when we got in the studio, we ended up writing a song from scratch which was “I Proceed,” a track with a lot of energy. “What was really cool was that a lot of the producers I wanted to work with felt the same way about working with me,” Ciara says. Working with key hit-makers such as Pharrell Williams, will.i.am, Lil Jon, Dallas Austin, Rodney Jerkins, Polow and new players like Calvo and Brian Kennedy, Ciara – whose 2004 debut album GOODIES sold over three million copies worldwide – was involved in the selection of producers for THE EVOLUTION as well as the development of the songs, a couple of which (such as “Do It,” produced by wil.i.am and “Crush,” a Lil Jon jam) were written on the spot in the studio. I had fun making my first album: with “The Evolution,” I had an actual plan of what I wanted to hear and the sounds I wanted on the record.” I co-wrote every song and co-produced many of the tracks on this record so it really reflects where I am as an artist. The title of her much-anticipated sophomore album says it all and as Grammy winning young superstar Ciara declares, “My second record is called “The Evolution” because I feel like I’m graduating to a whole new level creatively and musically.
