Ciara has reason to celebrate.
On Saturday, June 8, the pop/R&B singer, 38, commemorated the 20th anniversary of her debut album Goodies by recreating the album cover on Instagram.
Ciara shared the original LP artwork, which features the singer in a pink hoodie with a gold cross necklace and an updated version that she recently recreated.
“20 Years later. Still CiCi. Happy 20th Anniversary Goodies!🩷🩷🩷,” she captioned the images.
Goodies was released in 2004 via LaFace and featured singles including “Goodies,” “1, 2 Step,” “Oh” and “And I.” It sat atop Billboard‘s R&B/hip-hop albums chart and hit No. 3 on the Billboard 200 chart.
In April 2024. it was announced that Ciara would be joining Missy Elliott for her first-ever headlining tour, billed as Out of This World — The Missy Elliott Experience.
The “Promise” musician featured Elliott on her 2004 hit “1, 2 Step,” and they reunited the following year for the rapper’s 2005 hit “Lose Control” with Fatman Scoop. More recently, all three artists got back together for a remix of Ciara’s 2018 single “Level Up.”
The tour, which is set to hit 24 cities throughout North America this summer, will also feature Busta Rhymes and Timbaland, as well.
“This is an incredible time in my life as I am experiencing so many milestone ‘firsts.’ Being the FIRST female Hip Hop artist to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and now going out on my FIRST headline tour,” said the “Get Ur Freak On” performer, 52, in a statement.
“Fans have been asking me to tour forever,” continued Elliott, “but I wanted to wait until I felt the time was right because I knew if I was ever going to do it, I had to do it big, and I had to do it with family!”
She concluded, “So get ready to be taken OUT OF THIS WORLD with me, Busta Rhymes, Ciara, and Timbaland! We can’t wait to share this experience with the fans!”
The Out of This World — The Missy Elliott Experience will kick off on July 4 at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada and the tour will make stops in cities including Seattle, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Houston, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Boston, New York City, Detroit, Toronto and more before wrapping Aug. 22 at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois.
