@ ARE YOU SERIOUS -

Ciara did have RiRi's team. Ciar said in an old interview that L.A. Reid put her in the studio with lil john after hearing Usher's Yeah track. That's how she got Goodies. LA Reid moved to Def Jam and gave Rihanna S.O.S after Christina Miklian didnt want it. Reid picked out most of Rihanna's singles until Disturbia which was her idea according to an inter Reid did with EW.

He carefully shaped RiRi's career and A&R'd her albums. Ciara was left at Jive and we see what happened. Everybody needs help and Ciara needs a new A&R team if she thinks Gimme That should have been her 1st single. She just needs a new team. Hopefully Reid will end up at RCA/Jive to help Ciara. She should be selling out MSG by now
