In 2006 Thomas signed a four-album deal with Akon's Interscope Records label Kon Live Distribution, which will release her solo debut album, Point Of View, tentatively due sometime in early 2007. The album will include work done with executive producers Akon and Missy Elliott as well as tracks produced by Timbaland and Will.i.am. Some of the songs have already been leaked on the Internet. A track titled "Gameproof" was leaked in Spring 2006, and in January 2007 a demo version of another, "No Rings On These Fingers," was posted on ChilliFan.com. On February 16, 2007, "Straight Jack", a Missy Elliott track said to be the lead single from the new album, was leaked in a mixtape and later on the Internet. Chilli both sings and raps on the leaked tracks.
