Can Hit-Boy Help Rejuvenate Ciara's Career?
We love Ciara but it feels like the the R&B siren has been gone for way too long. In her return into the studio for her next album, producer Hit-Boy revealed details on collaborating with CiCi on a new track.
The 24-year-old in-demand producer behind the Will Ferrell-sampled hit Ni**gas in Paris crafted an untempo record with song writer, Soundz. The track will be debuted on her upcoming Epic Records release, which if the title follows suit, will be a chart-topping single ready for the club.
I did a record for Ciara. Its called Hit Boy, written by this producer/writer Soundz. Hes amazing, so be on the lookout for that, Hit-Boy told MTV News. He described the feel as energetic, for the club, for the radio.
Hit-Boy has also been working on music for Brandy, the G.O.O.D. Music compilation, and Kendrick Lamar.--who he promises will deliver some bug surprises.
The record that [Kendrick and I] did work on is very energetic, he said. Its almost the same type of energy as a Ni**as in Paris, so Im super excited for people to hear that. Thats like one of my best beats that Ive done in a while. --Eric Diep
