@ Mishka, I have to agree with you. Why are these girls waiting? Beyonce is on a break, A. Keys is waiting for the arrival of her baby, Gaga is in between albums, Britney is not coming out until the fall(I believe), Xtina's era is in trouble(which takes her out of the equation, until she makes a new album) and Rihanna is working on new material. On top of that Justin Timberlake is quiet and Usher is half way through an album. What is the hold up?... Seriously!!! It's obvious that the time is now to strike. If Kanye is coming out in September it's a wrap for almost another year! I hope that won't start a domino effect. I don't think it's going to be clear like this again until Spring(maybe summer) 2011 and I have hopes that Brandy will be dropping then! Ciara is clearly in a position to do better than these last few that have dropped or is planning to(Monica, Kelly Rowland, Kelis, M.I.A, Keyshia Cole and Dirty Money). I hope her camp is taking this into consideration!
