A new track from Ciara surfaced today. ‘Turn It Up’ features Usher and is supposedly included on her new album, ‘Basic Instinct’, which hits stores on December 14th. Give a listen below:
This is a fun and catchy club song with a colourful melody. Nonetheless, the blatant similarities between this and Usher’s ‘More’ (from ‘Raymond vs Raymond’) are hard to ignore.
Moreover, the record lacks the bass that we have come to expect from an uptempo Dance number of Ciara’s and she frankly does not have the vocal power or range to carry a song without it. It’s a good song but in no way life changing.

I like it, I think it’s hot.
YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS LOVE IT!!!
It’s not mastered and you can tell it’s very LQ
I actually like it and I’m not a Ciara fan, don’t know what Trent is talking about
I think its a great song….its the type of music out now
it sounds unmastered.
and yes, it does sound like “more”
come harder than this Ciara. Gimmie That is hot though
I’m sure this isn’t the final version.
It sounds unfinished, which is why is sounds baseless.
I like it though,
Trent, are any of her songs life changing? #JustKeepingItReal… Let’s not gas Cedric up as a vocalist bcuz she isn’t… Cedric/Ciara is best know and a Premier Backbend Specialist!!!
Watch: BoydashianLive on Youtube
I think this is hotter than anything Ciara has put out so far so I have to disagree with this post.
I think it’s very catchy and it;s most likely unfinished. I don’t know *kanyeshrug*
anyway it’s hot!
Trent you sound dumb… and this is low quality so it wouldnt knock as hard but the beat and vocals of BOTH Usher & Ciara Knocks… SINGLE MATERIAL >>>>
wtf why are her songs leaking like crazy?
I agree with the previous posts, i like it. It’s very catchy and not as repetitive as Gimmie Dat. This is a potential hit single and I actually prefer this over gimmie Dat (evne though the Gimmie dat video was hot) Imagine the video for this. Her and usher, tearing it down.
It s fun.That’s it !!
Also, I think this is unfinished as well so imagine the final version.
This is not the final version!!!!!
Lol i love the little rap she does. This is def a banger
to be honest…im not feeling it
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh wake me up when this is over. I’m so tired of her…she needs to go away. This was garbage…Everybody jumping on the “POP/Dance” wagon. WTF!
Trent, do you NOT hear this bass bumping under the track. This song is HOT!
You don’t know how long we’ve been wanting a Ciara, Usher track. I thought we were going to get it with “Hot Tottie.” Anyways this song is average like all her releases so much…with these 2 on a song, you would think they would come up with something MUCH better. I’m disappointed. 🙁
I expect more depth from both artists…
I love it!!!! was hoping for something more sentual from both of them but this song is great and if released- will be followed with a fantastic video.
Ciara “frankly does not have the vocal power or range to carry a song without (the bass that we have come to expect from an uptempo Dance number of Ciara’s)”.
I F****** LOVE how you tried to use some musical/compositional analysis in an attempt to grant your opinion more credibility *rolls eyes*.
In order for her to salvage her album, this has to be a single. And it has to be a well promoted single. This could really help her out, because as a consumer the only songs that I’ve liked so far from this effort has been ride, and that didn’t really do well for her. This could really be a hit for her if done and executed well.
this isnt finished altho i wud have liked the chemistry beyonce and usher had on the “Love in this club” remix that s*** was HOT AS HELL this sounds all over the place.. very messy. and rushed but this might save Basic Instinct
Good descent song with moderate hit potential. My issue is if this will be included on the “Basic Instinct” project how will it tie in with her new urban sound she has already established? This is more like a techno dance song so I don’t think it would gel in with what Ciara said her latest effort stands for.
I LOVE THIS SONG HANDS DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OH MY GOD!! I LOVE THIS SONG!! YASSS!!! GO CIARA! TURN IT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BASIC INSTINCT – DECEMBER 14TH!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ride~ OKay
Gimmie Dat~ A Hot Ghetto Mess
Speechless~ No Comment!!
Turn It Up~ Pretty Good…
the 1st song from Ciara recently that I could actually Bare all the way through. Vocally she wasnt half bad either, sounded like KRowland to me at times… I ike the Beat & all but Its more Generic-Usher than CiCi.

Trent stop hating on Ciara.
Just cause you and your ugly self can’t have the spotlight..
SNM
This song is Not memorable enough
It’s average
Gimme dat>>>>>>>>The rest.
Trent, life changing? really? lol…i wont judge you for that comment simply because your obsessed with mariah like I am.
so are the so called r and b artists are just going to let r and b die. Ugh, I’m so tired of the crossing over to sell, I mean I can understand it, but please don’t let r and b die.
I am getting so sick of this dance craze. That being said, I feel like the song is lacking something….
Ciara, Usher Reviews and more at:
http://kicktheeardrum.com/
I thought she was going back to her urban roots?
Well this song’s alright, but her vocals are altered to the MAX
Um…it’s not bad, not great, but not bad. It definitely sounds unfinished though.
It does remind me a lot of ‘More’, especially with Usher on it. Obviously Ciara doesn’t have the best vocals, but I don’t think this is the type of track that is supposed to show case vocals, it’s a dance track. Honestly, I am not too impressed with Usher’s vocals on here either. *shrugs*It’s cute and catchy and I hear it getting some plays in the club. She is really gonna have to have a hot video to go wtih this.
I’m rooting for CiCi, but she is really gonna have to step it up before the release date. Hopefully she can get in some appearances and hot performance before the release date. Is she scheduled to perform at the AMA?? Anybody??
Hit, it does sound similar to something from Usher’s album.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK! PPL PLEASE END OF THE DAY ITUNES AND ALBUM SALES SHOWS IF AN ARTIST IS GOING SOMEHOW…I STAN 4 CICI TOO, BT I HAVENT SEEN HER NO. 1 ON ITUNES YET…PICK IT UP GIRRRRRRL WAT THE HECK R U WAITING 4, U HAV A HUGE RECORDING STUDIO and mega bucks…WATS MISSING…..creativity and the ability to think ahead and recarve ur niche…CMON GIRRL….BEYONCE ON UR ASS!
*Oops SHOW SOMEWHERE
it’s supposed to be the first single in europe
It’s a wrap for Ciara. Ride was the only correct song from B******* Instinct and it flopped !!
Speechless >> Flop
Gimmie Dat >> Flop
Turn it up >> garbage
WHERE IS THE HIGH PRICE SINGER ??????????????????????
Bye C.
“Ride~ OKay
Gimmie Dat~ A Hot Ghetto Mess
Speechless~ No Comment!!
Turn It Up~ Pretty Good…
the 1st song from Ciara recently that I could actually Bare all the way through. Vocally she wasnt half bad either, sounded like KRowland to me at times… I ike the Beat & all but Its more Generic-Usher than CiCi”
…I AGREE…She really did sound like Kelly Rowland LOL…And people sit up here and say Keri’s Singles Flop yet BOTH of her Singles have Charted higher than Ciara’s Singles from Basic Instinc besides “Ride”…….
And I dare for a Ciara Stan to say Keri only sells because of features cause MOST of Ciara Songs have Guest appearences..But when it comes to doing a song by herself she drops the BALL ! ! ! !
This song sounds like Usher’s “More” with a hint of Kelly Rowlands “On & On”, with that being said I like Usher’s “More” and based on the overwhelming similarity I find myself liking this song. I will however, not buy “Basic Instinct” because apart from “Ride” all of Ci-Ci’s other singles have been a hot steaming pile of dog sh*t.
i love it this should be her fourth single but until now i didn’t hear a song by ciara as hot as switch she really wasted that song
I don’t like this. I am tired of the dance/techno craze & it seems like both artists were late hopping onto it. I actually liked Speechless. I am waiting for someone to invent a “new” sound or something b/c this is not it. Can we please be inspired by lol 70’s and 60’s music? They’ve already gone back to the 80’s with autotune crap and whatnot.
CiCi has a nice song here, I see it being played in the club, she coming along just find, plus she doesn’t have a big machine behind her promoting her. I wish she and Chris Brown could have collaborated together on her album.
I wish CiCi success whit her new album.
Definately single material. I have never been a huge fan of ‘Gimmie That’, because it’s so repetitive. ‘Turn It Up’ is way better.
Not feelin this…souns like “More” and a little bit of “work” 🙁
She said in an interview that she was going to take back to her roots (R&B, Crunk music) this sounds like some more Fantasy Ride BS, how many more songs on the radio sounds like this. It also sounds like a black eye peas record and Usher on this track don’t make it better. Basic Instinct is really turning to be a FLOP to me, I was really rooting for but now I’m Speechless like her. Enough is Enough Clara push back.
