The pair deliver a chanting girl power anthem.

Ciara's Beauty Marks is filled with empowering lyrics set to pop-laced production meant to get fans on the dancefloor, and the Atlanta artist's single "Girl Gang" featuring Kelly Rowland fits the mold perfectly. The anthem-style song features the pair shouting "girl gang" as they are "iced out" with their "squad goals." Ciara and the Destiny Child singer created "Girl Gang" to uplift the ladies and let them know that they're capable of anything, with or without a partner by their side.

In a recent sit down with iHeartRadio, Ciara explains that she purposefully kept Beauty Marks uptempo throughout. "In that moment it kind of felt like [being a single mother who was trying to figure out life] was a scar, but ultimately it was a beautiful thing, because I gained wisdom from it, I grew from it," adding "My mission for my project is to inspire the world, to inject love, and make the world dance. That's all I want to do. So, there's a few slow songs, like two, but the rest of it, you're moving nonstop."

Quotable Lyrics

Girls just wanna have fun
No, they wanna have funds, stackin' up revenue (Yeah)
Tryna hit it, no commitment, tell 'em hell no
He ask your favorite position, tell him CEO
