I definitely want to get more active in the film world. Is that something that you would want to go back to in the future? I know you’ve done a little bit of acting in movies before. When you see this great story and then the period at the end of the story is a song you sung that’s by the Rolling Stones. It was honestly a perfect film, and then the song being the end-title song, it was really super cool.
CIARA PAINT IT BLACK MOVIE
It was really cool to see that, and the movie was really awesome. Oh, it is so cool! I got to see it, and I had goosebumps when I saw my name in the end credits and where it says “song performed by Ciara.” “The Rolling Stones’ ‘Paint It Black’ performed by Ciara” is pretty darn cool. How does the song play into The Last Witch Hunter? Have you gotten to see the film with the song in it? I wasn’t a fan to know every song of theirs, but I definitely have been a fan of the Rolling Stones, but it’s just so cool when a moment like this comes along. And so our new generation of fans and people, the people that really paved the way for all of us artists, like the Rolling Stones … This is one of those cool moments where it reminds you of how great music was, how people are really experimenting right now and how it’s cool to be able to do that today. But also, I think that music is also in a very cool time where everyone’s being very expressive, and it kind of also has a retro thing happening where hints of the old school are starting to come back into today’s music. I definitely was inspired from the process, and I know that I will be working with Adrianne more. When moments like this come along, they’re the perfect opportunity because they allow me to discover something new creatively.
Is that a direction you want to explore?Īs an artist, I think it’s important to always keep growing, and I definitely want to keep challenging myself. I feel like I’ve been hearing a psychedelic-rock revival in R&B and hip-hop, from A$AP Rocky’s album to Beyoncé covering the Doors at Made in America. It was a huge honor, and then creatively I just got to really have some fun that I don’t usually do in my music. I feel like it pushes the edge and the limit for me, in reference to what people probably expect from me.
The direction that she went in was actually a sound I’ve always wanted to play with, and it just didn’t get any better than being able to cover a Rolling Stones song. It was never on my radar to cover it, but when the opportunity came along, I was very thrilled, because I love what the producer Adrianne Gonzales did. This would be an honor.” I had never thought to cover this song. When they asked me to do this, I was like, “Absolutely. No, to be honest with you, it was actually a surprise for me when I got the call from ABKCO Publishing and Lionsgate. Is “Paint It Black” a song that you’ve wanted to cover for a while now? Hear the track below, and read Ciara’s thoughts on the Stones, Missy Elliott and what comes next after Jackie. For the action film starring Vin Diesel, out October 23rd, the singer tackles the Rolling Stones’ bewitching “Paint It Black,” and reimagines it as a syrupy, mesmerizing slow-burner. Ciara, R&B’s still-reigning princess, is taking a dark, psychedelic turn with her new song, featured in The Last Witch Hunter.
