I guess I will wait and see, I still love GMG, but if the album is good, I guess I cannot complain that much in the end

I agree. They need to set small, yet respectable goals for this era and then move on from it. Especially if 'OWA' is going to be a mostly urban LP.
They should be trying to score a top 5 hit on the R&B/Hip-Hop charts that at least charts in the top 30 of the Hot 100 and gets certified Gold, although platinum would obviously be better. Then try to score at least one more top 10 R&B/Hip-Hop hit, peaking in the top 40 of the Hot 100 and again being certified Gold. That's as far as singles go. As far as the album, try their best to get it to go Gold, but at least do 350k in sales. That'll be an impressive increase from 'BI' and 'FR'.
Drop a few dope videos, get her on a few award show stages, maybe score some nominations, and open for someone big on tour, maybe CB since his album is dropping this Summer. or maybe even tour with Kelly Rowland and Future since Kelly has records with future. If they can do all that, Ciara will be back in decent standings. Well, at least on the urban side of things. Lol!

I could care less about sales right now, we need this promo NOW... Atleast a club tour or being someones supporting act(before the album drops) and her own tour After(so she wont be performing the SAME OLD).. if she waits to begin promo the week of the album release ill be disappointed.... The Game was a great start.. The good thing is that the album releases in June.. The Bet Awards shouldn't be long after that..
and can we add :Explode, Like A Surgeon, Work, Yeah I Know, Wants For Dinner, Supernatural and some other jams to her performance list ... I just feel like she's out grown performing 1,2 step and Goodies

She's suppose to be going on a world tour this year. I don't know if they will still do it though, now that OWA is mostly Urban.
And I wouldn't expect her to perform unknown songs at Club shows (most of what she's been doing lately).

ALL OF THIS minus the name Kelly Rowland, the word "open" and Chris Brown.

Maybe they will do two parts to OWA. I need Overdose. I won't shut up about it.

Honestly, I haven't seen anyone say Overdose wasn't on the album.

Ciara can easily manage a solo tour.
It doesn't have to be arenas, but she doesn't need to open for anyone.

Whoever began with Overdose not being on the album should do suicide!! It will because Epic are not dumb!! They have a winner with it and One Woman Army (the song)!!

Yes, but people are saying the album has become fully Urban, meaning that they have scrapped the Pop tracks.
See, I don't think I can really believe that they have been scrapped, though. Epic isn't dumb. They can have Pop and Urban
without One Woman Army pulling a PF:RR. Not to mention, if One Woman Army the song is Pop, they obviously can't be
cutting it from the damn album because the album itself is named after that song  Sigh, mess. She needs to talk
more about this damn album, I am having a panic attack and need to know what's going on as soon as possible.

They said the album will be R&B BASED. Doesn't mean there wont be pop songs on the album, just more R&B. Anyways, that source probably isn't true to begin with.
And the only songs Ciara confirmed were scrapped are BOH and GMG
