With record executive LA Reid sending Twitter into a frenzy just hours ago with the ‘confirmation’ of Pop songbird Ciara signing to his Epic label, many of her fans now await details regarding the performer’s long awaited upcoming album.
Expected to score a 2012 release date, very little is known about the LP’s creative direction and exactly which producers and songwriters Ms. Harris will enlist to help bring her ideas to life.

I’m AWFULLY flattered Sam! You CLEARLY saw & STANNED for my post on the “L.A. & Ciara” post & decided to spin it in a new direction to benefit this……”blog” of yours. #CoolStoryBro
LOVE THIS!
Ok here i go:

11. Beyonce – ‘Upgrade U’
She needs to release something like J-Lo’s “On the Floor” if she wants to become relevant again. Everyone knows her as “THE FLOP” now (which is embarassing), so she needs to come back hard! If she releases more slow jams…she’s dead! LOL
WHAT THEY NEED TO DO IS BRING BACK THE GIRL I LIKE WITH HER FIRST CD SHE DOESN’T SEEM LIKE MY HOME GIRL ANYMORE SHE SEEN LIKE A CELEBRITY B**** AND LIKE HER MUSIC IS FORCED TO APPEAL TO BLACK AND HIP HOP CULTURE

8. Willow Smith – I Whip My Hair
9. Rihanna – Skin
10. Kelly Rowland – Motivation
11. IDK….the 10 were hard enough to think of.
IN ALL HONESTY SHE NEEDS TO HUSTLE SOME OF RIHANNA PRODUCERS AND WRITERS JUST TO GET HER KICK STARTED AND ONCE SHE UP THERE AGAIN SHE CAN DO WATEVER SHE LIKES BUT SHE NEEDS TO JUMP ON THE DANCE BANDWAGON WORK WITH PPL LIKE DRAKE OR NICKI MINAJ ETC……

@blairdevereaux
SAM WHAT’S HAPPENING WITH BRITNEY SPEARS. NO NEWS?
I’D LOVE TO SEE HER WORK WITH PRODUCERS LIKE JAMIE XX, DIPLO, CHASE AND STATUS, RUSKO…
SHE NEEDS TO GET REAL CREATIVE AND DO SOMETHING A BIT MORE INNOVATIVE..
Post this……
http://eyeprime.net/2011/10/beyonce-jay-z-and-kanye-shop-at-intermix-in-new-york-oct-8/
ohhh i’d love her to work with skream and benga..she needs to think outside the box and work with some producers from europe..
Love Her,this is gonna be biiig
I just feel like Ciara had a lane and left it, and then tried desperately to get it back, but on the backs of a brand-name team. She learned the same fate that Mariah did with that Angels project.
At this point, I would model Aaliyah’s “OIAM” album. I’d get a fresh, hot producer, songwriter pair/team that are unique and not exactly popular or mainstream yet…and I would let them do the heavy handed work on her next project…
Basic Instinct wasn’t bad, it was just the same material The Dream kept trying to force-feed the public on his own albums…with R&B about to make a dramatic return, Ciara needs to re-corner that female-dancer R&B-heavy bracket
NOTHING SLOW—-PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ciara is the QUEEN of dance with these new girls- TRUST ME SHE SLAYS LIVE TOO! SINGER? ehhhhhh, BUT JANET did it! Ciara has the abiility to come back, she just needs to stay away fro mthe slow jams until like the 5th or 6th single!!!!!
Ciara has the abiility to come back, she just needs to stay away fro mthe slow jams until like the 5th or 6th single!!!!!
——————————————————————————————————————
I agree 100%!
http://thepagewithroyalkev.b*******.com
You deleted my comment just because I said that I don’t like the idea of bringing up other songs to form Ciara’s album? 🙄 I hope that you didn’t permanently release it because that’s not a good thing….
As I said in my intiial deleted comment, I want Ciara to keep going with her r’n’b’ style but at the same time to experiment with more sounds and elements like Aaliyah.That’s going to make her stand out and I miss Aaliyah’s music A LOOOT so it would be great if Ciara took some notes from her and brought that style back.She also has to make her choreos more intricate and less hip-hop.I LOVE her hip hop choreos, she slays them, nails them and kills them, BUT that can only take her so far.Sad, yet true.She has to mix it up a bit 😉 Anyway, GO CIARA
*permanently delete it
😳
I agree w/ RoyalKev’s post.
She needs club bangers,hard hitting midtempos with a message,and songs with a ww appeal so here is ny list
1.Chris brown -look at me know
2.wacka flocka- no hands
3.aaliyah-try again
4.Travis porter-make it rain
5.Chris brown-up to you
6.aaliyah-one in a million
7.Alicia keys like you’ll never see me again
8.miguel-quickie
9.ghost town djs-my boo
10.jlo-on the floor
11.lady Gaga-edge of glory
CIARA CANNOT SING BUT SHE SURE CAN DANCE BUT SHE REPEATS THE SAME DANCES SOMETIMES.
BEONCE COPIED THE LOVE S** AND MAGIC VIDEO ON COUNTDOWN WITH THE BODY DOUBLES.
WACK FLOP
I am a big CIARA Fan so here is my list.
1. Get It Girl-Ciara
2. Would You Mind- Janet Jackson
3. Work- Ciara
4. Promise- Ciara
5. I Run It- Ciara
6. Feedback- Janet Jackson
7. Please Don’t Stop The Music- Rihanna
8. Goodies- Ciara
9. Back Up- Beyonce
10. Don’t Stop Til You Get Enough- Michael Jackson
11. Oh My Love- Chris Brown
can she come back is the question? it doesn’t matter who she works with, she doesn’t have an audience black or white.. I seriously don’t believe she can come back, especially on her 5th album…….. she’s like the black Jessica Simpson……if her 5th album flops like the other two, she really needs to hang it up….. Just because she has one hot song on this next album it really doesn’t matter, remember Ride?
ALOT of this stuff I agree with, but it is not just the music. The promotional aspect of it ruined the majority of her album sales.Everything just has to be almost perfect this time around. Music wise, DON’T be afraid to experiment and find your sound. True Ciara was our homegirl next door, but homegirl grew UP! She needs that fantasy ride crossover appeal, the emotion and rawness of the Evolution, the Cockiness of Basic Instinct, and the catchy aspect of Goodies. Easier said than done, but with the right Promotional Team and FRESH producers anything can be accomplished.. She needs to WRITE this time around and get what she says out there. I just want her to be able to give it her all, no half stepping.

Justin Timberlake – SexyBack
Usher – DJ Got Us Falling In Love
Jennifer Lopez – On The Floor
Nicki Minaj – Save Me
Janet Jackson – Doesn’t Really Matter
Rihanna – Russian Roulette
She should do r’n’b and dance album.
Ciara needs R&B/HIP HOP bangers & ballads that can be played on Pop radio as well
She needs a Pop/R&B sound and her songs need to be released to MAINSTREAM radio AND URBAN radio, something Jive never did, part of the reason why her last two albums flopped. Her last Mainstream song went TOP 10!!!
She needs to take advantage of POP music as of now to rebuild her audience, and mix that in with Hip Hop/R&B. Probably enlisting people like James Fauntleroy and Danjahandz and Timbaland for some Hip Hop and R&B and maybe people like Stargate and RedOne for some Pop cuts. Something modern but with versatility like Rihanna.
Even though people criticized her, she was headed in the right direction on Fantasy Ride. Dwindling popularity is better than the irrelevance that was “Basic Instinct.”
She needs her own style and own sound.
1. Ciara-promise
2. Ciara- my love
3. kelly rowland- feeling me right /work it man
4.nicole scherzinger- whatever u like
5. Priscilla renea- baby please
6 ester dean- something you cant live w/o
7. Bridget kelly- thinking about forever
8. The dream- ghetto *ie : ride, surgeon, you can get it”
9. ciara- heavy rotation
10. Britney spears- freakshow
11. Brandy- say u will
I’m so glad ciara is coming back. I’m tired of rihanna and beyonce!
Ppl can shade ciara’s singing but the thing is she is still the queen of hits and has had more hits on the radio than kelly rowland and keri hilson combined. Unfortunately, she’ll never be close to rihanna and bey’s level cuz they are always forced in ppl’s faces.
yea dance for u will perfect for Ciara
i concurr with Kev’s list…..mostly cus im too lazy to make up mine 😀
Uh, ThatGrapeJuice, why was my comment deleted? I guess I shall post it again….
This girls dance moves are amazing! She needs to make it a priority to stray away from slow songs until the 3rd or 4th single. Not only that, she has to make sure her promotion is together. Here are some of my suggestions:
Janet Jackson “You Want This”
Destiny’s Child “Lose My Breath”
Aaliyah “Try Again”
Monica “Angel”
Brandy “Happy”
Ciara “Promise”
Chris Brown “Paper Scissors Rock”
Danity Kane “Damaged”
TLC “Creep”
Ciara “Work”
Rihanna “Rude Boy”
1. Jojo-In the dark
2 JLo-On the floorr
3..Ciara-High Price ( 2x)
4. Britney- S**** 4 u
5 .Rihanna -Skin
6. Janet Jackson-That’s the way love goes
7. Usher-Omg
8. Ciara- Blauw
9.TLC- Red light special
10 Ciara-And I( 2x)
11. Drake- Brand New
*Bonus
Keri Hilson “I Like”
Ciara “That’s Right”
JoJo “How To Touch A Girl”
Ameriie “1 Thing”
Beyonce “Crazy In Love”
i agree with I’MA HAVE TO SEND HER TO HER MAKER and MR…
just having great music doesnt necessarily cut it these days…all about the marketing, management and promotion
i dont even like rihanna, but gotta give it to her..she’s consistently bringing out catchy songs, well its not exactly “her” but her team are…the producers she works with are the ones cici needs to, along with some british underground ones…
what i love about cici when she first came out was her grittness she needs to get that back…
She has a weak voice so she need songs that dont require alot of vocal strength !
1) Go Girl – Ciara
2) Take off – Young La , young Dro
3) Patty Cake – YG ft. Dj Mustard (Ciara Lady Remix)
4) Pretty Girl Swagg – Ciara
5) Shut em up – Ciara (this song style is the iiish)
6) Yeah I Know – Ciara
7) Teach me how to Jerk – Unknown
8) Schoolin Life – Beyonce
9) Get it girl – Ciara
10) Like A Surgeon – Ciara
11) Shut up n drive – Rihanna
(I NEVER COMMENT BUT I HAD TO THIS TIME)
Ciara’s 5th needs to consist of crossover dance tracks/ heart felt ballads/cocky tracks/and a few s*** ones…She needs to showcase her vocal growth on this album…..( she shouldn’t release any ballads until her 3rd or 4th single)
1. Jojo-In the dark
2 JLo-On the floorr
3..Ciara-High Price ( 2x)
4. Britney- S**** 4 u
5 .Rihanna -Skin
6. Janet Jackson-That’s the way love goes
7. Usher-Omg
8. Ciara- Blauw
9.TLC- Red light special
10 Ciara-And I( 2x)
11. Drake- Brand New
SLAYARA yes !!! YES MA’AM yes GIRL. the QUEEN CI IS COMING !!!! f*** yes !
FANTASY RIDE should have been released NOW. it was dropped at the wrong time, i feel people would understand that CD more of it came out now..
Basic Instinct should have come out BEFORE fantasy ride.
Ciara is fine. PROMOTION is her main tool.. her songs are normally BANGING. so her songs arent her problem. she knows music and im sure she will give us what we want.
1.) Ciara – Ride
2.) Beyonce – SweetDreams
3.) Aaliyah – Rock the Boat
4.) Rihanna – Whats My Name
5.) Lady Gaga – Pokerface
6.) J.Lo – On the Floor
7.) Ciara – Work
8.) Britney Spears – S**** for You
9.) Usher – OMG
10.) Jojo (In the Dark)
Ciara will be back on top as soon as she gets proper exposure and the proper consistent promotional campaign along with the right (constant) singles. She needs to be showcased. She needs TOP dance songs ( Goodies, 1 2 step, Work, Gimme dat) and Killer Slow Jams ( Promise, Ride, I run it, Like a Surgeon, And I)
`CIARA- FLAWS & ALL
`CIARA- PROMISE
`CIARA-SO HARD
`CIARA- MY LOVE
`AALIYAH- THE ONE I GAVE MY HEART TO
`CIARA- AND I
`BRITNEY- S**** FOR U.
`JORDIN SPARKS- NO AIR
AND ANY SONG THAT BRANDY OR TONI BRAXTON WOULD SING BECAUSE CIARA SOUND LIKE THEM ON HER LOWER REGISTER
What she needs to do is also bring Lil Jon back into the studio with her and make another killer beat.
1. Nicole Scherzinger- Club Banger Nation remix (ft. Chris Brown)
2. Britney Spears- Drop Dead (Beautiful) remix (ft. Nicki Minaj)
3. T- Pain – Drop It (remixed and remasterd)
4. Britney Spears- Trip to Your Heart
5. Wynter Gordon- Dirty Talk
6. Frank Ocean- Thinking about You
7. Beyonce- Dance For You (radio edit)
8. Kelly Rowland- Work it Man (ft. Drake)
9. Nicole Scherzinger- Wet
10. JLo- Invading my Mind (ft. Lady Gaga)
11. Teairra Marie- Body
She should go for a more pop sound..she don’t really have street cred.. and honestly she doesn’t need it..! she is full grown..you don’t see Beyonce or Keri Hilson acting like they’re all hood n ish! I would love to see her do some amazing choreo..!
1. Motivation
2. Lay it on me
3. Dance Ass feat Big Sean
4. Til the world end feat Nicki Minaj
5. Rude Boy
6. We like to party
7. Drop it low
8. Deuces feat Missy and Da Brat
9. Run the world
Just a few but Motivation really would have did it for her she would have slayed
her voice is average just like beyonces.
1) Chris Brown – Yeah 3X
2) Dev – In The Dark
3) J. LO – Good Hit
4) J.Lo – On the Floor
5) Kelly Rowland – Lay It On Me
6) Kelly Rowland – turn It Up
7) Ciara – Work

14) Janet – That’s the way Love Goes
15) Janet – Special
first
Goodies 3.5 million
the evolution 1.8 million
fantasy ride and basic instinct not even 500,000
ciara lost most of her sales when she tried to cross over into pop music, in all honesty the only artist that are selling are pop artist who have atleast some dance tracks on their album of course with the exception of adele, and taylor.
but even if ciara did dance music i don’t think her whole album should be, i think she needs a good mix of dance music for mainstream and then some r&b like she use to make. oh but even if she does dance music that doesn’t guarantee that her album will sell, there are several artist who have made the switch to dance and they can’t even sell 1 million. no shade but it would of been so much easier for ciara to make a comeback if she didn’t already have two failed albums.
i am not saying this to hate but, someone said if the promotion was handled right then she would sell.
this is false. that is an excuse used when albums don’t sell like they are intended to, biggest example would be adele, she had almost no promotion at all, and no #1 song when the album dropped, she later got a #1 with rolling in the deep and with someone like you, but not until after the album dropped so the right first single doesn’t determine if the album will sell or not. as for promotion even look and britney spears, she did no promo except for a show the week that her album released and she still managed to sell 1 million ww at least.
Ciara f***** up. She did have her own lane and she’ll never get it back—too busy being a celebrity instead of an “artist”. BUT she is super talented as a dancer and a pretty good singer. She can put on a show, and has a stage presence. Ciara is worth 20 of Rihanna–no matter how much she’s misstepped and flopped. I hope she comes back STRONG!
She needs something like Aaliyah’s More Than a Woman or We Need a Resolution something with crossover appeal like Rude Boy and Whats My Name?……oh Yeah and Countdown…..
01. MARIAH CAREY- OBSESSED
02. CIARA FEAT. CHAMILIONARE- GET UP
03. AALIYAH- MORE THAN A WOMAN
04. AALIYAH- TRY AGAIN
05. BRITNEY SPEARS FEAT. NICKI MINAJ- TILL THE WORLD ENDS REMIX
06. RIHANNA FEAT. EMINEM- LOVE THE WAY YOU LIE PART. 2
07. ASHANTI- BABY
08. CHRISTINA MILIAN- DIP IT LOW
09. BEYONCE- RUN THE WORLD
10. LADY GAGA- POKER FACE/ JUST DANCE (FEAT. AKON)
11. BRANDY- ALMOST DOESN’T COUNT
THE ALBUM NEEDS TO SERVE AS AN ALBUM WITH NO FILLERS, AND THE PERFECT FUSION OF RNB, HIP HOP, AND POP…. THE COLLABORATIONS HAVE TO BE THE TIP TOP SHAPE…. JAY-Z, NICKI MINAJ, LIL’ KIM, EMINEM, DRAKE, LIL’ WAYNE, NAS, EMINEM, RICK ROSS LADY GAGA…
NO SOULJA BOY, T PAIN, LIL JON, ETC… LEAVE THEM FOR THE MIXTAPE GIRL…
GET WRITERS AND PRODUCERS LIKE SCOTT STORCH, RANDY JACKSON, LA. REID ( 🙂 ) , MISSY ELLIOT, ALEX DA KID, ASHANTI, JIM JONSIN, CHRISTINA AGUILERA, LINDA PERRY, DRAKE, ALICIA KEYS
^^ I agree. If Ciara could convice Missy and Timbaland to go back to that good stuff that they produced for Aaliyah in the 90s i think that she’ll come back strong. Timbaland is nothing but pop now sadly
1) Aaliyah – Hot like fire
2) Britney Spears – Gimmie more
3) Ciara – Goodies
4) Beyonce – Freakum Dress
5 ) Ashanti – Baby
6) Brandy – Full Moon
7) Danity Kane – ecstasy
8) David Guetta – I can only imagine
9) Electrik Red – On point
10) Big Sean – Dance Ass
11 Vanity 6 – Nasty Girl
Producers – Danja , David Guetta , Rico Love , Tricky Steward , Easter Dean
Collaborations – Nicki Minaj , Big Sean , David Guetta , & Pharrell Williams!
The Urban Audience Is Ciaras Audience.
The Urban Genre Is Ciaras Genre.
As Stated Above When Ciara Goes Too “Pop” It Doesnt Work.
Its Not Her Thing, And The Lane Is FULL.
Ciara Is An Urban Artist/Performer.
She Has That Lane With 808 Bass Hitting, Smooth Sultry Vocals
She Can Do Crossover Tracks (i.e. 1,2 Step) But NO Full Out Pop.
11 Songs Ciara’s A5 Should Sound Like:
1) Her Very Own “Gimmie Dat Remix” -Its Sound And Vibe Are Smooth
2) Another One Of Her Own “Flaws” – That Track Is CIARA
3) Beyonce’s “Dance For You” – That Sultry Sound And Groove To The Record Fits Ciara, Especialy The Way She Can Be Visioned Moving To The Beat.
4) Chris Brown “Deuces”- Perfect Track For Her. Nice Production With A Nice Feature.
5) TLC “Red Light Special” – It’ll Be Like “Promise”. The PERFECT Kind Of Ballad For Her
6) Her Leak “Shut Em Up” – HIT. Perfect Amout Of Attitude On A Track.
7) Ester Deans “Drop It Low” -She Should Of Took This Track. Great Song To Get You Moving..And Production Hit Pretty Hard.
8) Rihanna “Whats My Name” – A Fun Catchy Track.
9) Beyonce “I Miss You” -Something Dark, Intiriguing
10) Cheryl Cole “Promise This” -Perfect Combo Of Urban/Pop
11) Janet Jackson “FeedBack” – Urban Uptempo, Crossover HIT.
She Is NO Jhud, Or Beyonce..But Her Smooth Feathery Vocals Are Nice.
She Can Comeback, And Deserves To Be Up There With The Likes Of Rihanna.
Music Wasnt Really An Issue, Just Label Support/Promotion Etc.
Heres To The Best Of Luck For Ms.Ciara And A5!

And Ciara NEEDS To Expand Her Choreographers!
Her New Stylist Has Been Doing Great..
And Her Hair Stylist Can Do A Little Better (Love The Light Color Though)
I think Ciara should do some collabos with Janet Jackson and Chris Brown.

Ciara needs to come back strong & hard. She fell off after The Evolution.
Ciara needs to collaborate with The-Dream, Nicki Minaj, Drake, Frank Ocean, MIA, Rico Love, Pharell, Missy & Timbaland
Ciara needs to do what she did with her first two records, work with a mix of different hot producers….kevin mccall, hit boy, rico love, polow da don, diplo, babyface, j.que, bangladash, south passee etc…we know she not hood anymore but please just stay urban (kelly rowland, monica, mary j. blige), and go back to being collabo queen…i remember she stayed doing features and as much as I hate to say it, she always succeded with that….im rooting for Ciara!!! Less time w Kim K & LaLa (them h*** aint worried bout u)…more time being on tour, studio, videos and promo…that shud get her back on top in no time!!!! #getitgirl
Its hard to come back from two failed albums and still have that A list prestige. Ciara brand Ciara is now damaged goods. Its possible for her to make a comeback because technically she has what a POP R&B tart will need. But, The music business is about hype and prestige. Her hype is low, No one checks for her music or performance’s. She’s popular for being the girl who used to be second to Beyonce and fell off. People like to discuss her situation. Like how they do Ashanti. No one really cares or searches for new Ciara material… I don’t enjoy making fun at Ciara’s situation because it can happen to anyone. Being a mainstream A list celebrity then falling to reality TV personalities sidekick is a horrible thing.

1) IF ~ Janet Jackson
2) GO GIRL ~ Ciara (she put that song & vid together; she needs to replicate it)
3) RING THE ALARM ~ Beyonce
4) BREAK THE ICE ~ Britney Spears
5) MORE THAN A WOMAN ~ Aalyiah

7. Zapp & Roger-More Ounce to the Bounce
8. Lady GaGa-You and I
9. Justin Timberlake-Sexyback
10. Pink-Stop Falling
11. Jessie J-I Need This
BASICALLY, SHE NEEDS AN ALBUM WITH A CLEVER BLEND OF R&B, HIP-HOP, & POP-INFUSED SONGS.
MORE PRIME EXAMPLES:
RUDE BOY
OMG
SUPER BASS
STEREO HEARTS
I think songs Like Janet “anytime, any place” Beats like “usher lil freak” Songs she has done in the past like “other chicks” “like a boy” Songs like her unreleased tracks “Flaws” “I Dont Care” “Homie Lover Type” I think she has the formula she’s a very talented artist Now it’s just all about the support and I believe the new record label will support her the way she needs.
1. Deborah C** “Just a Dance”
2. Sheila E. “The Glamourous Life”
3. Chantay Savage “Come Around”
4. MoKenStef “He’s Mine”
5. Kut Close “Surrender”
6. Keith Sweat “How Deep Is Your Love”
7. Before Dark “Always On My Mind”
8. Elusion “Gotta Have It”
9. The Isley Brothers “Let Me Down Easy”
10. Gabrielle “If You Love Me”
11. Basia “Time and Tide”
The album should be cohesive and the main producer should either be Raphael Saadiq, Kevin Gilliam aka Battlecat, Keith Sweat, R. Kelly, Polow Da Don, Missy Elliott or a reunion concept album with Jazze Pha. It should reflect an R&B styling and the lyrics should be reflective of where she is as a woman and come across lyrically strong. I enjoy the dancing and uptempo tracks and I know Jazze, Polow and Battlecat could bring danceable tracks to give her room to flow.
Ciara is amazing, so so so so so so happy for her! Cannot wait!

I Chose A LOT Of AALIYAH Because Everyone Misses Her Music & I See A LOT Of Aaliyah in Ciara, even in Some Of her Videos She LOOKED Just Like Aaliyah
Just To Mention A Few, I Would Like some J Cole, Drake,Jay, Kanye, Lil Kim Missy,Kelly Rowland,Timbaland,Swizz Beats, Rihanna, Maybe QUEEN BEY ????…ETC.
People I DONT Want To See Big Sean, Nicki Gimmick Minaj (Only If DOESNT She Has WACK ASS Nursery Rhymes), Rick Ross (Fat OBESE ASS Always GRUNTING), Lil Wayne Gremlin Ass, Keri Hilson (Flops DONT MIX) And Anyother Gimmicks/FLOPs
Let’s just go back to basics (pun intended). Cici’s Goodies and Evolution LP killed the scene. People fell in love with her because the music was fun, real, and danceable. Her image was perfect because she showed herself to be the girl next door. The girl that could be classy but could also hang with the guys. Songs like 1,2 Step, And I, and Ride are classic Ciara songs. Lately, she’s been trying to garner cross over appeal like Rihanna, but it hasn’t worked. Some artists try to follow the trend and it works for them. Rihanna never had one sound, so people are use to her trying different styles. Ciara came out as a solid R&B artist so she gets people’s hopes up when she crosses over to something different. Just be who you are. It’s worked for singers like Mary J. Blige, Tyrese, and Monica.
1st. Jazzy Pha + Missy + Timberland ———–>
RNB –> Janet – That’s The Way Love Goes + Aaliyah – One In A Million + Brandy – Sitting In My Room
Rnb/Pop –> Janet – Feed Back + Britney S**** 4 U + Aaliyah – Try Again/ More Than a women
Pop –> Rihanna – S&M + Chris Brown – Beautiful People + Nicki – Super Bass
She needs those THREE Elements Maximum of 3 Ballads some mid tempos and lot’s of dance tracks we want to see ciara dance. We are not here for her voice that is why she needs to go the more Janet, Aaliyah and Rihanna route but add her flava to it.
Marketing and Promo is ALSO important if she has no label support then let’s just forget it! she has a chance she needs at least 2 hits and go platinum then she will be okay.
Honestly, this is an extremely unnecessary post… But for the f*** it, just to have fun, here is my opinion. :]
I honestly believe that Ciara is one of the most underrated yet talented pop stars of our decade. However, the competition on the charts is fierce & ferocious. Especially with the growing trend of pop stars. She somehow gets compared to Beyonce & Janet Jackson & quite honestly, she is not at their level. She has to compete with whichever pop star is relevant at the time. Of course Lady Gaga is killing the game, living legend Britney Spears, & pop whores Rihanna, Katy Perry, Ke$ha, etc. Especially male R&B stars are incorporating that dance/pop/electro/house/techno/club/dubstep/europop sound. Pop will never die. Sometimes making pop records can save you. & Sometimes, it can looked at as basic.
Ciara is a phenomenal dancer. Her singing is mediocre but does that really matter? She is a good person with a good heart & she deserves success. I don’t normally do these but let’s see how I do.
Ciara’s 5th upcoming album:
The title is extremely important for it creates a cohesive album in one name. Her title should be strong, simple, & interesting. Maybe something in a foreign language?
-An introduction to her new sound. It could be a snippet of a beat. Or just her talking about a new direction.
-“ALL FOR YOU” , “DOESN’T REALLY MATTER” – JANET JACKSON
The official first single to start off 2012 with a celebratory single about happiness & love. Sometimes going hard won’t go #1. Most singles that reach #1 are positive, happy, fun, pop, club tracks. Something that is universal. I say a big pop/dance record infused with R&B & hip-hop. Layed over the hard beats would be a bubbly, soft, cute voice for CiCi.
-“OMG” – USHER
Okay I’m getting lazy.

Album: CC
DANCE BREAKS – 808’S – LIVE BAND – DRUMS. HARD HITS N BEATS , SWEET , SOULFUL .
She needs David Guetta, Bloodshy and Avant and Ester Dean writing and producing for her. She needs another song like “Gimme Dat” and JLo’s “On the Floor” to get our attention. Its been proven that her dancing too much as well as she does is not worked so I think she hs to amp up the s** appeal and more choreographed moves like the Old Janet Jackson and I think she will be back on track. Pleas eget rid of The Dream.
Unique, but radio friendly. She’s not ever going to get big big again. Rihanna my queen, Gaga, Beyonce, Selena Gomez, Ke$ha, Katy Perry, Nicki Minaj, Britney Spears, those are the female artist that are in right now & I have faith that these girls will be in for all of 2012+. I think Ciara will be able to have moderate success again, top 5 album, 100,000+ first week, some top 10 singles, a small venue tour, then she can build off of that & possibly build to were Ke$ha or Selena Gomez is at which is successful but not Gaga or Rihanna successful.
But…
1. Showdown by Britney Spears
2. I’ve Got That Boom Boom by Britney Spears
3. Inside Out by Britney Spears
4. Only You by Ashanti
5, Loose My Breath by Destiny’s Child
6. Blind by Ke$ha
7. E.T. by Katy Perry
8. Rolling In The Deep by Adele
9. Migrate by Mariah Carey
10. Bloody Marry by Lady Gaga
11. Wonderland by Natalia Kills
All radio friendly & catchy, but unique & with a twist. I think all of the songs I listed are original, but Ciara could put a twist on them. Flavor them up. She needs to start off with a Tik Tok, pure catchy b******* that has 0 meaning as radio & teens will eat it up. Basic Instinct wouldn’t of flopped if Turn It Up was released right after Ride & Ride got proper promo. Ride was a stupid single choice too if your trying to make a comeback. Ciara either doesn’t consider the general public when thinking single choices aka Speechless or her team is stupid.
Album Title: I Am… Still Relevant
1.) Introduction as to why & how Ciara’s my promising career failed.
2.) All For You – Janet Jackson
She is deemed to be the “Janet Jackson” of the new generation right? Ciara needs to expand her limited fan base & have the crossover appeal that Michael, Janet, Usher, & Beyonce have. They are all African-American talents who combined Pop & R&B combing all fans alike, therefore contributing to their world-renowned success. Ciara needs a huge #1 hit that can stay #1 for a couple weeks at least. Something that probably samples an older classic, something big, something that can go #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, Hot Dance Club Play charts, American Top 40, etc. Something Pop, R&B. A huge celibratory single to start off 2012.
3.) Goodies – Ciara
Ciara is the female inventor of Crunk & R&B. It was fresh, it was grimey, it was original. She created her own lane that no other R&B artist attempted to create. It was sizzling hot on radios because people loved bumping it up & just cruisin’ around, chillin’. She needs to bring that vibe back. This is the single that can be the polar opposite of “All For You Part 2”: hard, fierce, dark, etc.
4.) OMG – Usher
Usher’s single was released to mixed reviews fro music critics but the public definitely was surprised by the experimental sounds. Obviously, Usher did not try that hard in the studio when he was recording this w/ Will.I.Am. He was playing w/ auto-tune & layed that obnoxious sounding voice on top of some hot club beats & arena sounding chants. Trust me, Ciara can do this & that’s an automatic #1 for club & radio.
5.) Try Again – Aaliyah
Ciara needs a dance oriented sound that is still original to her urban roots, just like “Try Again”. It was still pop, but still urban. It had that once unique sound that Timbaland mastered years ago.
6.) Run The World (Girls) – Beyonce
Now, I personally worship Queen B. I can’t even comment on a post about Beyonce because I would literally type out an entire novel. She is the best, most talented woman in the game. I don’t care what anyone says. I loved “4” & I honestly liked “RTW” but I don’t understand why it wasn’t as big as “Single Ladies”. They were both almost the same in formula. Except RTW was more of an angrier cousin to SL. Anyways, what I loved the most about RTW was the high profile music video & immaculate live performances. Ciara is not known for her boring ass music videos so she needs to put one out that can actually be seen being nominated for “Video Of The Year”. A music video similar to RTW & SL: Nothing but pure dance. We all Ci can dance her ass off. Now prove it. Nothing like “Ride” tho. Something fashion forward as well & extremely cinematic.
& Of course, some sad ass R&B ballad. Again I am lazy.
I don’t know why ppl are saying she shouldn’t do ballads YES THE HELL SHE SHOULD!!!!!! SLOW TRACKS GETS THE ATTENTION OF EVERYONE AND PLUS A TIGHT CHOREGRAPHY TO GO WITH IT!!!!! THAT ALONE WOULD BRING HER BACK
1) I GET SO LONELY JANET
2) DANCE WITH ME CIARA
3) IF ONLY YOU KNEW CIARA
4) GET UP CIARA
5) I REFUSE AALIYAH
6) REHAB RIHANNA
7)WATERFALLS TLC
8) CREEP TLC
9) AGAIN JANET
10) 1 2 STEP CIARA
11) CRAZY IN LOVE BEY
12) I RUN IT CIARA
13) YEA I KNOW CIARA
14) UP AND DOWN CIARA
15) BROKENHEARTED BRANDI
THAT IS ALL 🙂
If I were A&R’ ing Ciara’s 5th album I would have her go for songs that complement her style which is “Aggressive but Sweet”. She needs AMAZING BEATS, because she is a Dance/R&B oriented artist. I know people tend to run this one in the ground but she should look to Aaliyah’s self titled album and “One In A million ” as INSPIRATION only, No copying. Their artistry is so similar it’s haunting sometimes. I see alot of Aaliyah in Ciara , as many people have already commented. I think its great she’s working with Diane Warren because she needs a “One I gave My heart to” ballad, “Promise ” was her “OIAM”. I think her real A&R and LA Reid are already thinking of putting her on track with what Aaliyah was creating during her career. I would also place her with Timbaland , and some new unknown producers. I think if she works with Dream , it should be limited to one or two songs.
I’M SO GLAD CIARA IS COMING BACK SO WE CAN GET SOME REAL ENTERTAINMENT, AND THIS WAS ALL SHE NEEDED TO DO WAS TO LEAVE THAT JIVE LABEL AND GET WITH L.A REID WHERE SHE STARTED, YOU GO CIARA AND YOU ARE THE BEST DANCER EVER, PLEASE BELIEVE IT!
I don’t specifically have a direction I want Ciara to go in! I want her to be herself, and do her own thing! I loved ‘Goodies’, ‘Ciara: the Evolution’, ‘Fantasy Ride’, and ‘Basic Instinct.’ The first two albums did great, but the last two only did bad because of the poor promotion. If her production team amps it up this time then she’ll do great! A mixture of those albums would be a great comeback. Something like ‘Thugstyle’ or ‘Bang It Up’ or ‘Work’ or maybe even ‘You Can Get It’ 🙂
I LOVE YOU CIARA!
DO YOUR OWN THING, <3
I honestly feel that Fantasy Ride and The Evolution were her best two albums to date. The promotion of The Evolution wasn’t really that much, but she still managed to sale alot, as for Fantasy Ride, the lack of promotion really threw it off the map. That album was priceless, a true album from a true artist. I’m a Ciara fan to the core, but Basic Instinct was a disappointment. If her label manages to give her the promotion that she needs and the songs that will truly showcase her talents and vocal ablilities, she would be UNSTOPPABLE!!
