    Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Jenny explained that she decided to do multiple album covers for the upcoming EP. She began, "We try to do stuff that’s very special for the fans and do collector's items and things like that that they can have forever and ever."

    "The truth is I don't even know if I'll ever make another album after this," she continued. "It’s such the kind of quintessential kind of Jennifer Lopez, J.Lo project and I really feel very fulfilled, so they really will be collector’s items at a certain point."

    Alluding to her controversial music manager, she said, "Don't tell Benny [Medina] that that’s what I'm thinking — this might be my last album ever."
