It would have kept the hype in her urban corebase instead she released Never Ever. She should have had released something more original. She picked the most basic song to lead the album.
FACT: Ciara ****ed up Fantasy Ride way more than her label did.
Ciara has this sick idea that her label was the problem. Ciara blamed the entire mishap of FR and BI on Jive, when she should be blaming herself. She stupidly gave up on FR a month after it's released, she didn't even try to grind it on her own. She said she "was back on my grind" at the start of BI, but that quickly faded around June. Jive obviously wanted another single to lead the album that was a surefire hit but no she pushed for "Gimmie Dat" which was a risk.
Ciara failed by trying going back to her "Goodies" sound and back to basics. In return she gave her only stale outdated album. She thinks she is going get her fanbase back by doing that when she is wrong, she should keep progressing like she was during FR. Because Fantasy Ride was fiiiiiiiiiiiiire.
And besides, like someone else already stated - that sound sounds dated.
