Yahoo: "Ciara is the Janet of this generation"

Ciara's mew stripped-down ballad, “I Bet,” is the antithesis of the music video for her 2013 hit “Body Party” — the one where Future holds her hand and promises, “You know you gon’ be mine right?” and elsewhere she dances seductively for him in her lingerie.

Though Ciara is known for being a visual artist (she is her era’s Janet Jackson of the stage), she decided to take a seat for an acoustic rendition of “I Bet.”

There’s no sense in wasting good choreography when she’s got a post-breakup message this juicy. So with three background vocalists, Ciara sings to a nameless ex, “I bet you’ll start loving me as soon as I start loving somebody else.”

Though she admits that she “loved” this former beau, she has bid him and his new girl good riddance: “You can keep that b**ch over there / Givin’ me the ugly stare / The one with the silicon a** / and the Brazilian hair.” Ouch.

Sounds like aside from co-parenting, Ciara’s days with Future are definitely a thing of the past.

The praise just doesn't stop

hmmmm.....

I really do like Ciara, comparison is intriguing, but hollow in my opinion.

but also I don't think many pop stars post Britney and Beyoncé ever stood much of a chance at becoming 'icons' for several reasons, longevity is a dying and underappreciated quality nowadays

Janet is one of her main influences, the other being MJ.

Ciara definitely has Janet qualities.
But Britney Spears is our generations Janet Jackson.

That's just disrespectful, being able to dance does not make you Janet, Mrs. Jackson if you nasty.

Mess. Doesn't she need similar credentials to Janet aside from dancing?

She wishes.

Well I mean come on,

let's NOT act like Ciara isn't a multi-platinum selling, Grammy award winning artist, with many Top 10 hits and other awards, still charting on the Hot 100 with her single "I Bet", 10 years after her debut album...

And this is talking about PERFORMING, not credentials anyway.

The hate in this thread is real,

I mean I understand the jealousy but you can't deny that Ciara is this generations Janet...

I mean the Britney stans are mad that their fave can't perform anymore to save her career and everyone knows it
