The 36-year-old singer said listening to the 'Stay With Me' hitmaker songs on repeat stimulated her to get emotionally raw on her upcoming album, reported Contactmusic.
"He did a spectacular job of cutting straight to the heartstrings. I had many dates with the album on and a glass of wine. There's this unbelievable cry but strength at the same time. That's what I'm aiming for," Scherzinger said.
The 'Your Love' singer's new album will feature plenty of songs about love and heartbreak.
"I'm an artist, he doesn't come into it. I'm sure if he heard some of the music he would be able to relate to it as anybody would," she added.
