The “Jenny From The Block” singer made headlines earlier this week when she cleared her entire Instagram account, and made her avatar just a black circle. Fans immediately began speculating that she was set to announce a new project, which she did on Thanksgiving — also the 20th anniversary of This Is Me…Then. The project also marks her first full-length album in 8 years, the last being A.K.A. which came out in 2014 (her more r was technically a movie soundtrack).

“People think they know things about what happened to me along the way, the men I was with—but they really have no idea, and a lot of times they get it so wrong,” she said to in an interview that was published on Nov. 25. “There’s a part of me that was hiding a side of myself from everyone. And I feel like I’m at a place in my life, finally, where I have something to say about it,” she also said, noting that the songs are “kind of a culmination of who I am as a person and an artist.”

Song titles include “Dear Ben pt. II” — a follow up to 2002’s “Dear Ben” — as well as “Midnight Trip To Vegas,” a direct reference to their Las Vegas nuptials.
