London, Jan 17 - Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger is throwing herself into her work in a bid to get over her recent break-up with Formula One star Lewis Hamilton.

The couple called it quits earlier this month after a two-year relationship and instead of remaining downbeat about the break-up, Scherzinger is focusing on her music to get over her ex, reports celebrifi.com.

Scherzinger has teamed up with American pop and R&B singer Ne-Yo to produce tracks for her upcoming solo album.

"Nicole is in a state of liberation right now so the tracks are very free. She is in a place where she is happy to be alive and the tracks are definitely expressing that. The whole album is going to be a pressure release - a great big exhale - and I'm happy about that," Ne-Yo said.

She has a lot of emotions after splitting up with Lewis. But it's like taking an eagle and giving it back its wings," he added.
