Ciara’s ‘Fantasy Ride’ Pushed Back

Published: Thursday 23rd Oct 2008 by Sam
Ciara's 'Fantasy Ride' Pushed BackIn news that will no doubt displease fans, Ciara has announced that her 3rd studio album ‘Fantasy Ride’ has been pushed back to January 2009. {Source}

It really does seem as if the dreaded ‘push back fever’ that swept the industry last year with the likes of Kelly Rowland, Mya, Nicole Scherzinger etc, is in full effect this year too. Other serially delayed LP’s this year include Keri Hilson’s ‘In A Perfect World’, Brandy’s ‘Human’, among several others.

I’m guessing that the fact ‘Go Girl’ – despite it’s hotter than hot video – is tanking on the Billboard Hot 100 (occasionally dipping in, yet falling short of the Top 100) has something to do with the delay. I still maintain the previously announced ‘High Price’ would have made for a killer first single.

Your thoughts?

    I was so upset but pleased because if she dropped in december she would of got overshadowed by britney and beyonce, and that is true. It’s good that her team are finally realising go girl was not lead single worthy. The video was mad hot though.Maybe high price or work will serve as lead now or something totally different? I’m still buying the album cos i’m a huge fan.

    BAD MOVE, WHAT IS SHE SCARED OF BEYONCE?? WE ALL KNOW BEYONCE ALBUM WON’T BE BETTER JUST BY LISTENING TO IF I WERE A BOY, COMPLETE RUBBISH!!!!! I LIKE BEYONCE LOL, YES I DO, SO I AM NOT A REGULAR HATER JUST STATING MY OPINION. BEYONCE IS TOO OVER HYPED, CIARA UNDERRATED

    WHAT IS HYPED DOESN’T MEAN IT’S GREAT OR BETTER THEN THE REST, BEYONCE HAS NOT CHANGED, SHE NEEDS A NEW IMAGE, MAINLY A NEW WEAVE,
    CIARA IS LOOKING THE BEST SHE HAS EVER LOOKED

    Well the fact that Go girl is not doing soo hot on the charts is not really the whole reason its being pushed back. half of her album was leaked so she had to return to the studio to make up for all the s*** that leaked

    Yepppp. She shoulda released High Price as soon as it leaked and pushed out Go Girl. She waited too late to even try and drop it to me. Especially with the album being this “conceptual” 3-disc thing, we shoulda get at least 2 singles before the release anyway.

    i really think that the T Pain train is starting to die down unless you come with something hotter than the previous song he was just on….

    Bottom line u cant come out with a WACK single and a HOT video it jus isnt gonna work.

    the last two are right.. I think T Pain is losing his nitch.. he is kind of falling off.. I liked the video but the song needs to be better.. U see what Beyonce did “Single Ladies” she gave u a nice video but the song outshines the video

    In all realness are we really surprised about this
    I mean the song wasn’t that good from the get go plus using T-Pain
    isn’t always the answer to a hit record as we can see here
    if she really wanted to be “DIFFERENT” she would have did something outside the box and not go with tpain

    and some of you really kill me Beyonce has nothing to do with the fact that ciara go pushed back if your such big fans of hers you would supported the record but yet you didn’t because its getting pushed back now plus did you guys not see the people that were dropping the same day she was

    50 cent and Bow Wow not that their important but the do have a bigger fan base then her so she would have overshadowed very quickly

    YAY! hopefully she’ll record..record worthy songs.
    basically all the songs i’ve heard that were meant for fantasy ride..have sucked. i want ciara to record songs that sound just as good as goodies and (most of) the evolution.

    im still waiting for the track that catches my attention (that’s not hard to do, but with the current songs..ciara needs to work a lil harder)

    Well, I think it is a smart move to push it back, cause “Go Girl,” was a whack single from the get go!

    T-Pain wasn’t the answer, and since he’s practically the Prince of Crunk music, and she is the proclaimed First Lady Of Crunk-N-B, I expected a hype song, not that slow, stupid, “…Go Girrrrrrl…” ish they both brought to the track.

    NEXT!

    ^^^ Please and Thank YOU!!!

    “Kiss Kiss” was a floor burner. “Go Girl” is wack sauce. I bough both of Cici’s albums on release date cuz I’m a huge fan, but this Go Girl s*** isn’t even on my damn computer.

    “High Price” is edgy as hell. Come on CICI!!!

    january was not confirmed. she said jan or feb.

    this is a good move. i’m sure she’ll release a high price or sumin to the equivalent before the lp.

    BULLS**T THE ONLY REASON HER ALBUM IS BEING PUSHED BACK IS BECAUSE .THE SAME DAY HER ALBUM DROPS 50 CENTS NEW ALBUM DROPS. I LIKE “GO GIRL” BUT I WAS PISSED TO FIND OUT THAT “HIGH PRICE” WASN’T GOING TO BE HER FIRST SINGLE. I REALLY LOVE THAT SONG. BECAUSE I’M HIGH PRICE BETTER HAVE ON A HOT PAIR OF NIKES, BETTER BUY ME ANYTHING I LIKE, CAUSE I’M ALREADY HOLDIN, HOLDIN. SHE REALLY MADE A MISTAKE NOT MAKING THAT THE FIRST SINGLE. BIG MISTAKE
