R&B star Ciara has defended her decision to include a duet she recorded with disgraced singer Chris Brown on her new album, because she likes the way it sounds.

Brown is facing two felony charges related to his alleged assault on Rihanna in February (09), and Ciara admits she did consider re-recording their duet, Turntables, but quickly realised the song wouldn't sound the same without the Kiss Kiss singer.

So the duet, produced by Danja, will be among tracks on new album Fantasy Ride, which hits stores in the U.S. on Tuesday (04-May-09).

I could try todo it a different way and I even had moments where I played with it a little bit, but it didn't feel right

She tells Mtv News, "I wanted to focus on the music and leave it at that, because it's a record that I've had for a while, I love the way it sounds and it's one of my most favourite records on the album. "If I alter it, it's not gonna sound the same...

I could try todo it a different way and I even had moments where I played with it a little bit, but it didn't feel right.

So it's all about what feels good to me, so that's why I kept it".

Ironically, Ciara and Rihanna are reportedly hooking up for an all-girlrevue, which will tour North America later this year (09).
