The guy that used to run ConcreteLoop is claiming she's indie now. the person who leaked the single cover also said that the song is supposed to drop Wednesday and it’s being released under “Beauty entertainment” Here are some lyrics (I’m assuming) that he posted as well “5 4 3 2 1 let go watch me level up level up level up level up level up” #levelup

I don't believe she's drop. Sounds like she has her own imprint and Warner Bros acts as her distribution. ie Keyshia Cole's last album.

Heard a snippet on someone's Instagram and I'm not sure how I feel... I don't think it'll be a hit, at all. My guess is it will be relegated to buzz single status and not show up on the album ala Go Girl (even though that should've been a hit), Sweat, Got Me Good, Sorry, etc.

I agree, but now a days who knows. I feel some of that writing was so lazy. Thought she would've came back much harder.

I just lost what little hope I had for her comeback. She can go sit next to Karen now.

Well, now that we have the first heater track out of the way, we can get to the next heater track and then to the real first single. Album out June 2019.

The video is on 100 and the choreo is amazing but miss me with the stan goggle vision - this is Got Me Good 2018 and with the way the musical landscape has changed, artists - especially INDIE URBAN artists - cannot afford any missteps. You need to hit HARD on every level with every attempt and these kinds of songs that she has tried numerous times do not connect with the general public.

The biggest issue for me is that, apparently, this is not what the general public wants from her. That said, for a song in the vein of Got Me Good, Work, etc., this is MUCH better.

There’s nothing wrong with this song or video and it’s just simple as that.
The general public is responding positively.

Now that I know she's essentially funding this herself, I'm even more shocked she would come back with THIS type of record. She's tried this type of sound for a single NUMEROUS times and it never was successful. Remember Work? Got Me Good? Anyone thinking this is gonna be a hit is just... This shit is flop on arrival. And the saddest part is she NEEDED to come out with a hit record just to have a chance at regaining relevance. I'm strongly doubting she's gonna have the major label budget to just write this off like she could have in the past. She's more than likely not gonna have multiple opportunities to make an impact with this era.
*I'm not complaining about the quality of the music, but this sound has never connected to radio play/sales for her, no matter how brilliant the video was. With that said, I don't really ever need to hear this track again tbh.

I'm going to assume Ci doesn't give af about a comeback for real b/c she would surely have tried something different? It's not that this is bad (I really like it), it's just that whole 'definition of insanity' thing. If it didn't hit the first ten times...
It's weird, if Ariana or Beyonce had released this I think it would be much more likely a hit. With Ciara people seem to only want a very specific thing from her (Goodies/Body Party 8.0 except for that one time we let her have I Bet just b/c we like it when women are sad or bitter over community diq) and reject anything else. Even with a generally positive reaction, I don't see many people actually using this much. Which is a shame b/c honestly, this sort of drill-team vibe is her lane. IDK why we won't let her be great in it.
That aside, it would have been nice if she'd jumped into the Ella Mai/Normani/H.E.R. lane a bit. That's where r&b is headed but it is still early enough that she wouldn't have been seen as trend chasing if she got on that wave rn.
