Since 2004 and fast forwarding to 2015, Ciara has managed to stay relevant in the music industry for over 11 years. Many argue that because of her lack of album sells that she's not made any impact among her peers in the R&B lane. But aside from maybe Beyoncé or Alicia Keys, Ciara has remained top charter and seller with singles like "Love Sex Magic", "Ride", "Body Party" and "I Bet". Ciara has also managed to transition in the streaming world and become a streamable artist, earning more views than most R&B singers in her lane.
Would you consider Ciara to be an R&B icon? If you do explain, if you don't explain.
