I'm really hoping Ciara success with her new album. I hope LA Reid does well by Ciara. I've been rooting for her ever since Goodies.
I keep hearing Goodies/1,2 step on the radios here in nyc and I nearly crash because I bump that hard.
Ride was never going top 10. It was a little too urban and didn't have the crossover appeal.
However 'Gimme That' could've.
so was Promise, but it reached number 11 on the Hot 100...anyways here's to the next era to have a bangers and good promo whenever it starts, you only learn from the past...Jive bogus
I remember seeing KERI stans buying "Ride" on iTunes. Keri stans. I thought that her ass was relevant and then all that mess w/ BET banning the video,and BI being pushed back... I mean this could've been handled so much better than it was.
So today i was flicking through some of Ciara's music videos and i found this sexual R&B masterpiece
In my opinion NO other Ciara video touches this one, the dance moves, the sex appeal, the song itself!!, the ****yness, the grinding, the whip sound effects, riding the horse, BET Controversy.
Ciara where you @ gurl i need you to provide me with another one of these ***** grinders in this new album.
"I market it so good
They can't wait to try I I I I
Me e e a a
I work it so good
Man, these ******
Tryna buy I I I I me
They love they way I ride it [x3]
They love the way I ride the beat
How I ride the beat, I ride it"
To my fans:
This week the net has been a buzz of the rumor that I have been dropped from my label. At this point that rumor is false.. It is true that I have asked and I pray that my label will release me. I have had some great times and success with my label, but sometimes like all great things, it's at that point where I feel we don't share the same views on who I am as an artist. The past two albums have been very frustrating for me. At times there were songs I chose to lead a project and I was ignored! This project, I even tried to get "Gimmie Dat" started I spent tens of thousands of my own money only to hear the radio PDs tell me my label didn't want the song played. I even spent more than one hundred thousand dollars out of my pocket on the video to bring my vision to it and still no label support. I do understand that some labels are not financially supporting their artists and I have become one of them. You, my fans, know that I strive to do my best to deliver to my you the best songs and creative vision I possibly can. I'm dedicated to my music, performance and to my fans! I've tried to be a team player with the label only to have compromised what I truly believed and was not given the right opportunity to promote and inform my fans of the release of this album. I have so much of me as an artist I still want to give to the world and my fans. A release would allow me to go be creative with people who care and understand me as an artist. In a short time, I will be able to bring to you a new music energy and a visual excitement! Thank you so much for standing by me through the good, bad, and the confusion. I love you all.
Love Ciara
