Close to a year after the release of her ‘Talk A Good Game’ album, Kelly is already ramping up for a new album. In a recent interview with Billboard, she shared:

I’m at the very very beginning stages of the record. We’re at the point now where we are all talking – writers [and] producers – we’re all excited. There are fresh ideas coming into the studio right now. We’re trying different beats. It’s a really great start.

She adds that she’s already snagged Oscar-nominated singer/producer Pharrell and hopes that Timbaland will join her:

Pharrell [Williams] is on board. We already talked about it. I’d love for Timbaland to be on board. We’ve had discussions as well. I want to try to some new talent as well. There’s so much new talent… There’s somebody out there with something new to give and I’d love to tap into that as well.
