Ciara - "Sweat"

[XXX.]

The lead single from Ciara's then 5th studio album titled One Woman Army.  The single was canceled before 3 other lead singles were released and an album title change.



I hated this song so much when it came out.  But right now, I'm so in love with it.

It sounds like it would fit right into the playlist of Urban radio over the last 2 years.  It reminds me so much of records like "7/11" and "Bitch Better Have My Money".  

I think this was a forward record ahead of its time.  It's so sick to me.  Love it.

I liked this back then (2012? 2011?) but I agree it's even better today. I guess it probably felt gimmicky then because there hadn't really been a girl doing a song like this but it does sound like a perfect continuation of 7/11 and BBHMM.

Mess. So glad this got swept under the rug so quickly.

Doesn't sound so bad, it's a nice jam.

Damn. I remember when this came out I instantly thought she/her new (at the time) era was toast. Awful “song.”
Thank God this wasn’t pushed and the era wound up starting with “Body Party”.

I've warmed up to this over the years. It's fun hype track.
