New Song: Ciara – ‘Lose My Mind’

Published: Tuesday 17th Aug 2010 by Trent

Ciara has just dropped a new track from her ‘Basic Instinct’ mixtape. ‘Lose My Mind’ is a Young Jeezy cover that didn’t quite make the final cut of her much delayed ‘Basic Instinct’ LP. Check it out below:

“…The ‘Basic Instinct’ drop you gon’ lose your mind”. Now if only those words could come true. This is track has an Urban appeal with the addition of her thick southern flavour. Her team made the right decision including this on a mixtape and not the album.

  4. Alex T August 17, 2010

    I don’t think this was ever an option for the album. It’s a mixtape song through and through. Cici did a good job either way, though. Big up!

  32. CIARADABESS August 17, 2010

    @Truegemini78,i know it getting ridiculous.but let them hate all they want.

  33. Imo August 17, 2010

    oh, trent may as well call this Ciara Juice, you post so many topics on her lol. and I no longer read the comments, just a bunch of Ci, Bey, Rhi fans going back and forth with each other. jeez

  34. MUSIC LOVER August 17, 2010

    This song is terrible. Thank goodness it didn’t make the cut.

  35. CIARADABESS August 17, 2010

    I’m no longer posting on this site, so this “CIARADABESS” mimic is not me. So hater keep posting all you want. you have no life whatsoever. You probably going to post stupid comments to make me look bad, but people will know it’s not me so have fun getting bashed on.

  36. Much delayed my ass August 17, 2010

    Much Delayed, Do you read what you type Trent?, It got brought forward then pushed back twice because CIARA wanted to double check the s*** shes about to drop..

    I’m seriously gonna stop reading your posts soon, Sam has his moments but he goes about it professionally.

  37. Carmello August 17, 2010

    @CIARADABESS I think i can tell who the person is, and i know what the person is trying to do. We ain’t falling it. Don’t leave because i love reading your funny posts on Riatarda, and that’s the only reason i get on here to read those funny comments.

  38. Carmello August 17, 2010

    Also, I’m not posting either, this is wack and everyone is now pretending to be other users. That ruins the whole fun of this. peace!

  39. FreshUrbanEnt August 17, 2010

    LOL A PEOPLE PRETENDING TO BE OTHERS.

    ANYWAY THE SONG IS OK. IT’S TIME FOR HER TO RELEASE ANOTHER MUSIC VIDEO THO.

    CHECK OUT MY NEW ENTERTAINMENT SITE >>>> http://WWW.FRESHURBANENT.CO.UK

  40. MrIncredible August 17, 2010

    She should have kept this trash to herself… who does she think she’s pleasing with this crap?

  41. Soulful Roses August 17, 2010

    @S***
    Your the one that needs to chill out. You sitting at a computer impersonating other people lets me further know that you have no life what so ever.

    @CiaraDaBess
    Ok sweetheart. As I look at the picture, I can tell which one is which..

  42. ~TeAM WeeZY~ August 17, 2010

    Mixtape? I didn’t know about a mixtape that was named ‘Basic Instinct’ as well. The song isn’t that bad. I didn’t really like the original by Jeezy, though. Jeezy is one of my fave rappers and usually comes with the heat for his first single, but I really wasn’t feeling this one. I ESPECIALLY hated Plies’ verse, UGH! But Jeezy’s album are ALWAYS flawless! But yeah, back to Ciara, she needs to do some promotion or release some singles because ‘Ride’ has already reached it’s peak and no one is checking for her besides her few stans.

  43. Simply Phillip Brown August 17, 2010

    This song is featured on the mixtape. For all those of you who didn’t know, she is putting out the mixtape before the actual album, so some of the songs you have heard will not even be on the actual CD itself. Her official website said this back in July.

    The mixtape itself will include the remix to Waka Flocka’s ‘Hard in the Paint’, now titled ‘Hard in the A’, as well as the remix to Soulja Boy’s song ‘Pretty Boy Swag’, now titled ‘Pretty Boy (Girl) Swag’.

    You can find the info as well as the tracks on the upcoming mixtape at onlyciara.com. That is the entire reason she pushed the release date for the actual “Basic Instinct ” album back, to make room for the mixtape to do it’s thing!

  45. Trina August 17, 2010

    I’m always here on this blog dissing Ciara, but I gotta admitt that this song is HOT AS HELL !!

  46. Candice August 17, 2010

    She Went In!!!!!!!
    Ciara’s comin for Blood!!!!

    Basic Instinct is still the title of her 4th album, which will be released this fall.
    Basic Instinct also will have a mix-tape for promo, which features this track along with “Hard In The Paint” & “Pretty Girl Swag” and many other remix tracks that are on the way. The purpose of these remixes are for promo and buildup of the album/era.

  47. Beysbetter August 17, 2010

    WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY LOOOORRRDDD WHYYYYYYYYY!!!! Does she think it’s OK to wear Fitted hats over her wigs????? Can someone give me a legitimate answer?????

    Also her feet are huge? WTF? I won’t do borrowing Duane Wades shoes…smh This girl really needs to give it up…and sit down….INDIAN STYLE!

    @thebestdressed

  48. queenbeyonce10 August 18, 2010

    Don’t worry Ciaradabess we now know you left, so you’re good.

    This track is ok, it growing on me too, so I can’t wait for the mixtape.

  49. LEEK August 18, 2010

    @Simply Philip Brown, thank you for being informative & knowledgeable about the mixtape. It’s amazing that people can attempt to be greezy when commenting about a mixtape which isn’t meant for retail, but is only meant for true dedicated fans of whoever the artist is.

    It should be no sercret at this point R&B singers are taking a page out of the rapper’s playbook, drop a mixtape in conjuction with the LP.

    Singers that have put out official mixtapes:

    Monica & Greg Street- Made (for the Makings of Me album)
    Chris Brown & DJ Drama- In My Zone (V-Day mixtape)
    Keri Hilson & Cartune Networks- Ms. Keri (for the In A Perect World album)
    Dondria & DJ Envy- Dondria Duets
    Trey Songz & DJ Radio- Young & Heartless Volume 1 & 2 (for the I Gotta Make It album)
    Trey Songz & DJ Finesse- The Ladies Choice Volume 1-3 (for the Trey Day album)
    Trey Songz- Anticipation (for the Ready album)
    R. Kelly, DJ Drama & DJ Skee- The Demo Tape
    Marsha Ambrosius & DJ Whoo Kid- Neo Soul Is Dead

  50. H3avensent08 August 18, 2010

    uuuuugh just put out the F****** ALBUM,,,,, My gooooooodness!
    this mixtape should’ve been came out…..

  51. Justin August 18, 2010

    I like Tearra Mari’s version better..

  52. JD August 18, 2010

    I love how the haters have a beyonce name or her in their avatars. Some people stay pressed on Ciara. So all I gotta say is STAY MADD.

  53. LEEK August 18, 2010

    @H3avensent08

    I think if were up to her she would have dropped a long time ago. As long as singers, rappers, etc. are on major labels they won’t CONTROL anything. Corprate interest have screwed urban music something serious. I think in the next few years a large majority of urban artist are going to be independant.

  54. ciara has 11 BILLION views on VEVO.COM August 18, 2010

    hot hot hot cici need to drop that cd

  55. Yellow Gorillah August 18, 2010

    She is coming for WIGS!!!

    YESSS CICI…I got lot of high hopes for this girl

    I have a feeling This album gone be a HIT!

  56. Badd August 18, 2010

    It always amazes me..that there are soo many Ciara
    lovers on blogs but her albums never go anywhere.

  57. Quay August 18, 2010

    Ciara ain’t coming for nobody’s wig but her own. She still doesn’t know who she wants to be, and why does she keep jumpin’ on other people s***. It’s sad because no one even wants her weak ass on an official remix. How she gon’ say Basic Instinct on the way, and she just pushed the s*** back? B**** sit down!

  58. HaYYYYYYY August 18, 2010

    ciara is so thug
    lol
    luv her

  59. DION-ISH August 18, 2010

    WHY DOES CIARA LOOK LIKE A 12yr OLD BOY IN THAT PICTURE……..I CANT!

    DEF NOT THE MOST FLATTERING PICTURE OF HER

  60. keasyy August 18, 2010

    she’s trying too hard to be the OLD ciara. in which… the old ciara (goodies) wasnt this f****** HOOD!! but i loveee this song!

  61. Bugsy August 18, 2010

    Does Trent even listen to music. Obviously this wasn’t meant for the album. It’s just a freestyle smartass!

  62. KD August 18, 2010

    No more CIARADABESS, :-)GOOD! Now if only the other STANS would vacate the premises…

    🙂 🙂 :-)BYE B**** 🙂 🙂 🙂 .

  63. Usher’s Biggest Fan August 18, 2010

    She sounds like Trina. The song is aiight though

  64. Ha August 18, 2010

    Well she better get ready to whoop a whole lot of A because nobody is going to buy 10 copies lmaoooo

  65. ciara has 11 BILLION views on VEVO.COM August 18, 2010

    I went into walmart yesterday and
    Ciara’s old Goodies CD was stocked and selling for $10, while Ritard RiRi NEW Rate R only sold for $9.

    DEMAND DICTATES THE PRICE.

    I was shocked to see Justin Bieber selling for a mere $8 and he is supposed to be so hot right now.

  66. If Ciara had a better record company August 18, 2010

    Ask the average person if they have heard of Ciara and many will tell you “no.” That’s not her fault. That is the fault of her sorry record company who does a lousy job on marketing and promoting her.

    When she gets with a better company she’ll be the number one star in the world. Especially if she mixes her urban music with the Pop she did on Fantasy Ride to appeal to a broader audience

  67. Record companies LIE and steal! August 18, 2010

    In the old days it was very common for record companies to steal from black entertainers, and now we’re going back to the same old thing. IF CIARA WASN’T SELLING, THOSE A-HOLES WOULD HAVE DROPPED HER A LONG TIME AGO.

    SHE NEEDS TO INVESITGATE, AND GET THEIR AZZES IN COURT. LOVE, S** AND MAGIC SOLD, AND IS STILL SELLING, BUT THEY RIPPING HER OFF I BELIEVE.

  68. WHITEJESUS August 18, 2010

    so wait wait a mionute its a mixtape now WTF um 😐

  69. The truth teller August 18, 2010

    ciara needs to shake off her ghetto image.
    if she continues with it she will FLOP HARDER! she needs to create “white” music
    because whites are the ones that buy records or cds. looks at Kelly rowland she was a flop
    but when she did WLTO she became sucessful.

    @S*** has said this before that ghetto hood rats living in the projects cant bye cds, and its worse because they are her ‘core’ market.

  70. Moe August 18, 2010

    I hope someone mentioned that this was never meant to be a song for Basic Instinct Album, but the actual Basic Instinct Mixtape! So far she has proven herself to you everyone that she is not playing this season! Its time… ALBUM #4, BOUT DAT TIME!! lol

  71. kiki10 August 18, 2010

    In response to The Truth Teller…so you’re saying that Ciara needs to create white music to sell? So I guess they’re the only people individuals in the music industry have to cater to? And how is this ghetto? It just sounds like she’s having fun in all honestly..switching it up a bit…And yeah, thus far Kelly Rowland has had only 1 WW Hit…and she still continues to release music, but have I heard much buzz around her like I hear about others who are pleasing “white” people with they’re music…No. And I’m sorry that if all people listen to now a days in Gaga, Beyonce or even Rihanna because there’s much better music out there from artists who aren’t JUST trying to please white people… trust Ciara will have her shine…she’s Uber talented and more to her for grinding out there…becuase it’s obviously tough as hell when some think yo’re OBLIGated to please one race in order to sell… AND she’ll do it while keeping true to her own self and making music for everyone…thanks and have a blessed day.

  72. yesyes August 18, 2010

    meh…song is 3 out of 10 (and im being generous cos its cici & im a fan). The twinky twonky beat is dull & repetitive it has no chorus, its shite. i’m telling y’all her record label dont want her to be huge cos otherwise they’d be pushing her and getting her on the grind like nikki minaj.

    & i dont like how she called ‘basic instinct’ ‘basic instink’.

  73. lisa August 18, 2010

    WHY THE F*** IS CI-ERROR DOING AN MJ POSE & DOING IT WRONG FOR THAT MATTER????

  74. J.P. August 19, 2010

    Damn.. this song suuuuuuuucks
