They currently have two projects already underway: Not Without Hope and Relentless, the latter of which is also set to be produced in tandem with Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wadeβs Iβll Have Another and 59th production companies, respectively. Under this new deal, projects will appear exclusively on Amazon Prime.

They also launched R&C Fragrance Duo, a two-scent pair, back in November. Speaking to Harperβs Bazaar about their beauty venture, Ciara explained:
βWhen someone meets you, by what you wear you can leave a mark on them. And people can also remember the conversation they had with you but they can remember that scentβthe aroma that you left in the air.β
She added, βItβs just been a blessing to be able to do this journey together and to create this fragrance together, and we got many more to come,β
