Attitude Posted August 11 Posted August 11 I think the CiCi ep was a step in the right direction. I liked 4/7 songs so I think she's definitely capable of making decent music. Maybe she should release a Greatest Hits and build off that. 1

Absolutely not necessary at all especially for of all people to give us a greatest hits album in 2024. She just needs to be more consistent with putting out quality should be her only focus. As far as I'm concerned I don't mind her touring again with Missy since they're a match made in musical heaven
SchmoodRing Posted August 11 Posted August 11 Songs that she should be performing and stop paying dust in live performances: C1: Hotline C2: Can't Leave Em Alone, That's Right C3: Pucker Up, Work, Turntables, Keep Dancin On Me, Tell Me What Your Name Is, Echo, I'm On C4: Turn It Up C5: I'm Out, Overdose, Livin It Up, Sorry C6: Dance Like We're Making Love, Give Me Love, Kiss And Tell C7: Freak Me, NaNa C8: BRB Some of these songs unfortunately underperformed, weren't promoted and or would've been a great single for her to secure another hit and explore other sounds. These are the type of songs she should be trying to recreate and continue to make and explore! Her DJ collabs have also shown that their is so much untapped potential still. Get Up by R3HAB and Fantasy which was posted here are underrated gems

No, A Greatest hits album is not needed.....especially in the streaming era. She just needs to stop making corporate music......and make some real R&B/urban music with mature lyrics. 2 1
2ne1k Posted August 12 Posted August 12 I love this The contrast between the cutesy pre and the raging hook is so good Aside from Better Thangs, I've been loving all her singles since going independent 1 1
TESTES Posted August 12 Posted August 12 (edited) While I don't always understand Ciaras releases - This does actually seem like a "Promo/Buzz" song. No video, no lyric video etc. It's better than Da Girls She just needs to stop the rapping. The difference between her rapping and the "Driving way too fast..." that follows right after is huge. The pre-chrous part is so much better Edited August 12 by TESTES 1

I just feel that her being the veteran that she is in her journey we don't have room for this type of stuff. She's just wasting her money and she's upsetting fans. There's no way her paying for the feature and production she will even see a profit. What's the point?

Working with the same producer she most likely barely paid for it as well. I see this as when she released Rooted, Melanin etc. If she wanted a single out of the three songs she should have went with Wassup.

She's promoting this more than she has promoted some of her main singles in the past. And even if this was just a buzz track paying for a feature just seems like she really believes in this record. Also you can put out a "buzz" track that connects with people and this song is clearly not doing that. The whole point to put out a buzz track is create buzzzzz and the only buzz this is attracting is from the 10 fleas (her 10 Stans) that applaud anything she does and don't hold her accountable for the trash she's been putting out. 1

TESTES Posted August 13 Posted August 13 The views and streams are low...but why is this song getting positive comments on IG and X 1

They are dragging it mainly because of the rapping part. It's corny and unauthentic. 1

Low Key was one of the best songs on the CiCi EP. 1

KING ACE Posted August 13 Posted August 13 (edited) Honestly at this point, I'm calling it for what it is.......she's very stubborn and is trying to fit a square into a circle...... I'm starting to wonder if she actually reads critical feedback on her music or looks at stats on her music to see what performs well and what doesn't. I cant think of a logical reason why she ignores the smooth midtempo R&B lane lane she can easily do well in. Edited August 13 by KING ACE 1
ccfan007 Posted August 13 Author Posted August 13 (edited) What do you guys think about Good 2 U on latto's album? Would y'all be okay with that song if it were CIARA's song feat. latto? have a (non cringy) ciara verse and a latto verse? Edited August 13 by ccfan007

Yeah pretty much, but a little less "bubblegum" on production and a bit more mature on lyrics. 1
