It is also her first release since she unveiled her last track, Bow Down / I Been On, which divided fans with vulgar lyrics and had critics accusing her of being anti-feminist.
'I know when you were little girls you dreamed of being in my world. Don’t forget it. Respect that. Bow Down b******,' she sings.
In spite of those claims the singer told British Voguein February her new record will be ‘a lot more sensual’ and ‘empowering’.
She also said she considers herself a 'modern-day feminist', although she's uncomfortable with the term.
'That word can be very extreme. But I guess I am a modern-day feminist. I do believe in equality.Why do you have to choose what type of woman you are? Why do you have to label yourself anything
'I'm just a woman and I love being a woman,' she said.
