After a difficult few years, R&B star Ciara seems poised to make one of Urban music’s biggest comebacks.
With the ink still wet on her new deal with Epic Records, the 26 year old and label head LA Reid are wasting no time piecing together her 5th studio album.

Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)Details after the jump…
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)As earlier reported, producers Hit Boy and Soundz have been cooking up material for the project.
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)Yet, the ever-trusty Twitter has now revealed that Bangladesh, and the trio behind LMFAO‘s ‘Party Rock Anthem’ have joined the production roster for the as yet untitled LP.
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)Renown for his hard, gritty, Hip-Hop beats, Bangladesh confirmed his involvement, writing over the weekend:
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)what u know about 2 sessions at once? I know @ciara and @nicolescherzy can tell u about #FULLTIMEGRIND
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)While ‘Anthem’s producers Goon Rock, Josh Stephens, and Dre Koon, announced:

Going on to add:

——————————————-
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)Needless to say, Ms. Harris has assembled quite the diverse team.
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)And while I’ve never subscribed to the “she needs to switch up her sound and/or go back to how she was in 04” nonsense, it’s refreshing to see her work with a fresh(er) set of names.
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)For, if orchestrated correctly, her comeback could be aptly Epic!

YASSSS CIARA…and omg..ciara and cassie are both coming to slay…ya’ll hear Cassie’s “King of Hearts” (R3HAB Remix)?? http://snd.sc/wiXPcW
Nicole and Ciara? The two biggest flops of the music industry together? Funny and interesting.
soo ready for new Ciara material and videos yay im happy for her
Can’t wait to hear the Goon Rock record. It will be cool to hear a dance record from Ciara because she’s actually a dance diva!
Come on Ciara!
Ciara gonna flop harder then kreayshawn did!
well, good luck to her!
I love me some Cici. Her discography is perfection, tbh. Even Fantasy Ride, which is “poppier” than her normal style, is a enjoyable listening.
We are ready, Super C!
i think this album is gonna be so much better than her last one because shes working with the right people. cant wait to hear 🙂
I’m excited, love her but haven’t been feeling her last 2 albums. Much prefer her first 2 and the hood chick that made me gravitate towards her. Sounds like she’s sticking to her roots which is great!!
I like the fact this album will have a variety of producers so it won’t be one sounded like Basic Instinct. I hope the promo and marketing is perfection.
Oh this is gonna be Big
Yesssssssssss! Ciara Gimme Dat Best
I CANT WAIT FOR THE NEW MUSIC
Excited so much,love u C
This is big comeback,Ciara goin Hard this time,hope this time works
Is she still managed by Johnny wright?
OMG! AMAZING SO EXCITED FOR CIARA! AHHHHHH ITS GOING TO BE AMAZING! SHE IS GETTING ALL THE HTMAKERS! YESSSSSSS WOOO CIARA!
Yess Go Ciara!! Luvs you lots so waiting for #5 Amen
Sidebar- for u haters why are u da first ones to comment really get a damn life… I guess hatin season never ends
YAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSS!!! QUEEN C IS ABOUT.TO.TAKE.OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! *rolls over and dies while holding all of my ciara possessions*(this is how i would’ve wanted it to happen) GO C GO C GO C GO C GO C!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
CIARA is just famous because she is LALA & KIM friend.
SO event with big producers, she will still FLOP!
people just care about BEYONCE & RIHANNA
look KELLY ; she had a big hit, but her album still flop hard
CIARA, have a seat on basquet ball game, & stay KIM & LALA friend
your carrier is OVAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I’m not going to speak too soon because I remember I thought she was going to slay with “Basic Instinct” and we all saw what happened with that. But regardless, I am happy to hear that she is working with a slew of producers for this project. I think it has a lot to do with the label’s handeling of the project as well so I hope LA Reid gives her the push she needs!
Tell ’em bout this hit Cici! It’s time she hand her haters a seat! I think Cici want her princess crown back!

i can’t wait for this era to begin..since she’s still in the studio i guess we aint getting a single anytime soon..maybe march for a june album release…I would like her to release like three singles before she drops the album
I’m truly hoping for an epic comeback! I’ve always felt like Ciara has the potential to be iconic! She’s much more entertaining then most of the artists who are at the top of the charts nowadays. Regardless I’ve always been a fan and I’m buying her album
Ciara coming for wigs I see…Ciara please no ballads or euro-trash dance pop, just make good dance music and maybe some smooth R&B cut., 2012 will be an exciting year in music for sure…
im so happy for ciara but alot of her fans needs to be called out like @BasicallyIRunit @ill_Will92 @IllManneredTavi @missezRenee @MS_SWAYZE @LuvaofLuv @iHateChanelle @Telejah @UltimateCiara @iPrinceRobbie & @Sherlzzzz thinks she’s in charge of everything im calling CSquad out!!! a blog is being made
I’m actually looking forward to see what she comes up with…I hope her new team is providing her with the right guidance.
I’m hoping we have more successful Black entertainers in 2012.
@JUNIOR SEVEN i think the word your lookin for is CAREER not CARRIER lmao u dumbass if you gone hate at least know your words and spell them correct SMH
ANY WHO CONGRATS TO CIARA ILL BE BUYING THREE!!! I SURE SIR WAS ONE OF THE 37000 THAT BOUGHT BASIC INSTINCT AND I GOT A AUTOGRAPHED POSTER AND CD. I MET HER SHE REALLY COOL AND DOWN TO EARTH I ALMOST CRIED TO SEE HOW PEOPLE HATE ON SUCH A SWEET POSITIVE PERSON. SHE HAS NEVER DONE ANYTHING TO ANYONE AND SHES ONE OF THE FEW ARTIST WHO ACTUALLY DOES CARE ABOUT HER FANS AND GIVES HER ALL
im calling everybody from csquad out the blog is being made by tea_spiller hope yall didnt forget about him
im sorry, but ciara is stupid. She is REALLY stupid.
This b**** has been given a FRESH start with a new label, new a&r, new team and shes working with producers she could have worked with three of four years ago.
I knew this would happen, I knew LA Reid would sign her and then let her do what she wants JUST so he can focus on acts that will make him more money.
If i hear one song about ‘lovin the atl’ or ‘getting down and crunk’ or any other kind of generic urban dance song, i will officially stop giving a f***.
Its becoming too hard to stan for someone who doesnt realize how epic they could be if they worked with NEW people. Why not bring in Dr Luke, Max Martin etc to blend her urban swag with a top 40 radio sound!!!!
hope csquad didnt forget about tea-spiller yeah its going down!
@TARINAPASTRY YOU SOUND SO STUPID LOL WHO DEDICATES THEIR TIME TO SOMEONE U DONT KNOW OR LIKE HAHAHAHA HOW SAD!!!! I GUESS ONLY BUM B****** DO THAT RIGHT? LOL
love me some cici but people need to realize that not because those people produced a hit for OTHER artists they can re-create the magic for ciara, i say this because people is starting to hype this ambum way too much and that’s something that can backfire, it’s better not to say anything and surprise people cause if ciara flops one more time then her career is over
@CiaraLover i forgot about you bum but csquad needs to be called out & im the right b*tch to do it & my good bro tea-spiller already dragged half of them they was scared the blog we putting together is crazy the other stan teams gon be laughing at yall!
@TARINAPASTRY Do you have a Twitter?
@BUMPASTRY hahaha i know who u are u DUMB BUM B****!!!! u the basic b**** always hating since like 09!!! lol BOO GET OVER YOURSELF WE IN 2012 U DUMB B****!!! KEEP UP STUPID BUM H**!
I do care what she does… just give me another fire asss video like “Gimme dat” ….that video was awesome.
dont care…
@Marvin i sure do bum & i see yall talking about me but dont worry cause im getting ready to dragg yall & @CiaraLover you raggedy c*** just wait!
,@stopithater unless you buy 200K of her album CIARA will still FLOP!
SO sit ya ass down #ciarawillalwaysFLOP!
I like Ciara but I’m here for Cassie’s comeback in 2012. Good luck to both of them tho.
@kingofhearts please we talk about SINGER not MISTRESS
CASSIE is just good to suck DIDDY D***, so she better stay on diddy pant
@TARINAPASTRY Oh you do? What’s my Twitter name then?
@CSUADRAN
LOL! I hear u but I think Mr Reid knows what he is doing as exec producer. Don’t forget he has helped Rihanna, Usher, Pink and Beiber become arena artists. I like this direction and I think he knows “lovin the Atl” is not a hit record.
I hope she brings something hot for R&B/hiphop fans that have held her down in the past and also give the pop fans what they like.
She doesnt have to chose either pop or r&b b/c she can do both like Breezy, Usher, Beyonce, and RiRi. It looks like that is what theyre doing.
Get em CiCi!!!!!!!!!
Aye The Neptunes are set to be producers on the album as well
@ciaraisasuperstar i BEG U to never put BEYONCE & CIARA in the same sentence again
TKS U:
@BUMPASTRY B**** U ALL BARK AND NO BITE!!! SCARY ASS H** U KNOW DAMN WELL I WILL F*** YOUR LIFE UP IF U EVEN CAME CLOSE TO ME!
csquad i see yall bums talking on twitter im just waiting for tea spiller to make his twitter again & sherlzzzz & taya & telejah yall can shut up trying get slick
This blog is gonna slay csquad & tell @Missjazzypha @byedior they wasnt forgot about them bums in it too caquad getting slayed!!!
WOW uber excited for her domination.
Tarina, girl, you’re obviously following us already. You know our names. Enter our mentions. We would love it. Pleeassse do it.
Tarina is currently off her meds, please excuse her.
Ciara is taking over 2012! I said this is 2010 and it looks like I was right. So excited for this new album, words can’t explain! AAAH!!!
THIS B**** DOES NOT WANT WAR!!!!
AS LONG AS HER STUFF STAYS LOCKED UP.
Her biggest problem is leaks. Case closed.
EVERYBODY WHO LEFT A NEGATIVE COMMENT ON HERE IS PRESSED.COM LOL
HOW ARE YOU GONNA SAY “I DONT CARE ABOUT HER” BUT YOU TOOK TIME OUT OF YOUR LIFE TO READ THIS POST THEN LEFT A COMMENT.
CIARA IS LIVING HER LIFE AND DOING WHAT SHE LOVES ALL YOU HATERS ARE MAD BECAUSE YALL CANT SAY THE SAME FOR YOURSELVES!
CIARA IS VERY TALENTED AND SHE MAKES GREAT MUSIC. ALL ARTISTS FACE DIFFICULT TIMES BUT THEY GROW AND GET BETTER.
NO MATTER WHAT CIARA HAS FANS THAT LOVE HER SO SHE WILL DO JUST FINE.
WITH THAT BEING SAID IM VERY VERY EXCITED FOR HER NEW PROJECT
Tarina Pastry is a sad ass, 12 year old, insecure b****, lowkey Ciara fan, and DIE HARD CSquad fan. STAY MAD, BOO!
lmaooooo that flop stan base u call the C-Squad is about to come to a End ………………………………. @tea_spillers
@Sunny couldnt have said it better. I agree 100% well said…These no life fools, who waste their time leaving negative comments on a posts of an artists they claim to “dislike” are pressed, no life, idiots with nothing better to do but hate on someone who is more successful then them, someone who is very talented, who accomplished alot, and living her life..they arent doing nothing with theirs.
Can’t wait for album #5, the haters can stay mad cause.Ciara stay winning, while they stay losing.
These haters are pathetic parasites who waste their time online 24/7 every day hating. So pathetic. Ciara has accomplished alot, hatings only want to point out someone’s flaws, but what have yall accomplsihed in life? I’ll wait..Im positive the answer is nothing.
Ciara is a somebody who is doing something right, since she got you haters so pressed and mad, you haters will continue to be nobodies. With no life, education, or no accomplishments…
Lets hope the record can produce hits. Too bad Crunk died, and she didn’t really continue it for her sophomore album…kinda helping kill it. Because she really rode that “genre” well.
Hell Ci kinda killed it by releasing “And I” instead of “Hot Line” or at least “Thug Style.”
P.S.
Bangladesh actually produced “Hotline,” [2004] so another new collaboration with them should be hot. She was on him before he worked with other R&B/Pop singers like Beyonce on “Diva,” [2008] and Rihanna on “Cokiness (Love It)” [2011].
@ CSquadron
She worked with Dr. Luke, on ‘Fantasy Ride’ …. track was hot, check it out, it was called “Tell Me What Your Name Is.” My fave from the album!
@r seven you are mad. lol
@junior seven
‘your carrier’??????
YOU ARE A DAMN FOOL!!!!!!!
YES…!!! Real music is FINALLY MAKING A COMEBACK!!!!
I BELIEVE ITS WORTH THE WAIT! CIARA IS COMING TO SLAY THIS TIME! HOPE THE HATERS ARE READY BECAUSE WITH THIS ALBUM SHE WILL BE #1 ON THE CHARTS, #1 ON THE MUSIC CHANNELS, ETC.
LOVE ME SOME DANG #CIARA
Ciara is comin for those wigs… Wow i cant wait til she returns to music again
