I disagree lol. Ever since Loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Song, he's been steadily seeing success after success. He's a gross person, but he's killing it professionally. Any statements to the contrary are a tad delusional. The only "delusional" one in this situation is Future. Calling Ciara a "flop" when she was 3x platinum before his dreads could even touch his shoulders. She was a multi-millionaire, while Future was sleeping on the floor with roaches at his grandma's trap house. The nerve of him! He wasn't calling her a "flop" when he was sitting front row with her at Fashion Week. She wasn't "washed up" when he was her "plus one" on all those red carpets. Her career wasn't "over" when he proposed to her with a ring worth more than his existence. He's so bitter! Acting like he didn't gush about her in every interview when they were together. But if calling Ciara a "washed up singer" helps Future feel better about getting dumped for an NFL player, then I won't stand in his way. When Future gets a platinum album on his own, without Drake's name attached to it, then we can talk about his "success". Until then, stop quoting me. CHECK MATE. Future ain't shit. I'm tired of people hyping him. Ciara is a multi platinum Grammy award winning DIVA. Future loses. Ci wins.

Tbh I find the future talk boring. Don't care. What about the music? What about her looks? Let's talk about fun things that matter! I mean she usually is very hot And I am predicting she might perform somethin at the BBMA's this year with Luda, hopefully Oh or something brand new by some slim chance. Also, we need justice for her collab with R3hab, it's tooooooooo good to go absolutely nowhere. Also, I'm still angry at the fact this only peaked at 100 on the Hot 100, IT IS f**kinG AMAZING DLWML is amazing. But way too minimal. She needs a more URBAN sound that knocks harder.

Promise is a classic. Hands f#cking down! Speechless grew to be one of my favorite Ciara jams because she can glide the hell out of a midtempo. Ride...the video... banned from 106 & Park... iconic. I've been rediscovering gems that I bypassed before. I Proceed is one of Pharrell's best solo productions with TWO bridges, Sorry is GORGEOUS!, Echo should've been on the standard edition of FR, Bang It Up is Polow at his best especially that outro with the marching band, High Price is EPIC!, the hook of Girls Get Your Money is f#cking, no pun intended, $$$$$, especially that 2nd verse to the buildup to the outro, Turntables should've been a single, and finally Overdose should've been given the full court press because that song was a #1 hit in my eyes. Don't get me started on Tell Me What Your Name Is and Hotline being the 4th single on her debut album...

I'll be the first to step to the line and say Go Girl over Love Sex Magic. When she did the splits on the chair...bish who else! When she goes more feminine and less Chris Brown she excel at what she does best. Fantasy Ride is so frustrating because with the right singles choices it could've elevated her to her debut era of success. Same goes for the The Evolution. The wanted to cater to her Urban fans but they failed in the choices and timing.

How did Lil Mama get a Top 10 off of T-Pain and not Ciara?! *Side-Eye* My issues with Ciara stem with her management/label and the lack of cohesive thought when it comes to choosing her singles.

Basic Instinct has some clunkers but most of that album is so good. She was basically doing The-Dream covers but they still went hard...I Run It? You Can Get It? Wants For Dinner? B-i-c-t-h.

Basic Instinct is a flawless album. Y'all making me want to revisit it to remember.
Heavy Rotation is just...I can't at this album. :'( THAT, and not songs like Overdose and Livin' It Up, is how pop Ciara should be.

I used to want to fight any ciara fan/stan who shaded speechless lmao that is still one of my favorite ciara songs. Like another user stated she knows how to ride a midtempo jam. If ciara gets another big album/era during the digtal era she will be set, and alot of people would visit her back catolg and see how great it js and give those songs new life. The great things about most of her songs is that they age well, especially the ones that you may not like initially, theyre the ones that grow pretty well over time.

Stunning. Saw a TV spot for the Billboard Music Awards and nice to see Ciara and Ludacris as the hosts. I forgot she was hosting, and I hope they give her/them a performance slot!

OMGGGGGG, a preview of when Ciara is 60!
I imagine her being like Iman and looking in her 30s from 35-75.

Her and Nicole Kidman were pretty much the only ones whose pictures I saw that were knockouts all around.
