On her fifth album, Ciara contributed to both the writing and production of the album's songs.[14] She wrote "Sweat" (featuring 2 Chainz),[15] a song that was originally supposed to be the album's first single when the album was called One Woman Army.[16] Ciara also co-wrote and co-produced "Sorry",[17] the song that was chosen to supersede "Sweat" as one of One Woman Army's two lead singles,[18] along with "Got Me Good", also written by Ciara.[19] None of these records made the final album.[20] "Sorry" was co-written and co-produced by Jasper Cameron, who previously worked with Ciara on her 2006 single "Promise" and 2009 single "Never Ever". Together the duo wrote and produced "Super Turnt Up" which did make the final listing for Ciara.[17] "Got Me Good" was co-written with Rodney Jerkins and Livvi Franc (Olivia Waith).[19] When interviewed by Rap-Up TV, Jerkins said "I had a meeting with her about what her future holds and I told her I was there if she ever needed my creative juices, so hopefully me and her get in the studio and work."[21] Jerkins previously produced records for Ciara: The Evolution and Fantasy Ride.
Promotion for Ciara's fifth album (then titled One Woman Army) began on June 2, 2012 when Ciara released several promotional pictures.[61] Several days later, Ciara previewed songs at an album listening party for industry executives and a variety of internet bloggers in New York City. Amongst the songs played were collaborations with Rick Ross and Nicki Minaj.[62] Ciara would later confirm that it was not Minaj's, but her own vocals, that reviewers has heard at the listening party [on "Super Turnt Up"].[52] Many positive reviews came from the listening party. Patrik Sandberg of V Magazine said it was the "Hardest @ciara record I've heard. She's reconstructing the lanes. So future." "This album is ridiculous. It's coming for everything!"[62] The Ross collaboration made the album as a bonus track exclusively at Target.com and for the Japanese release.[63][64] On August 20, 2012, Epic Records sent an exclusive playlist of songs to Cosmopolitan magazine which contained the album's ninth track, "Livin' It Up", sans Minaj's vocals.[65]
