What Happened To Ciara? 

I HATE IT when singers do that 🥴

Her career definitely didn’t die off. You missed the point of the video lmao

She’s a legend!❤️ Something about her epitomizes black culture to me, all the positives if systematic racism didn’t exist, what we’d regularly see!

@kąlsjzj Yeah, but that happens with legends. Soon it will happen to Rihanna too. Legends have to take a rest if they want to be cemented.

@@FirstnameLastname-hm9vl actually her music career did die off. If you actually watch the video it happened with her third album. I’m actually a fan of Ciara so I think I know a little more than you. But thanks for your insight!

I just noticed that you don’t hear the “washed up” narrative in regards to Ciara. That’s pretty iconic.

cuz everybody wants her to win and he want her to make THAT COMEBACK

Ppl always give the tall stature to meg but forget about Ciara.

Yup, these younger black celebrities will give her ha props, and then push her to the recognition she deserves! The Cilloween was AMAZING!😩😍

@@loveyoursign2923 Huh??

Thinkin Bout U too. That song helped her get back on Top 40 radio.

Dance like we’re making love is another good comeback song too

That's my jam. I'm gonna watch that now. It never gets old

Exactly. The Beauty Marks era did have some moderate hits. I think she will always get a hit with songs like Level Up. That song goes so hard and I still love it to this day. Also Girl Gang with Kelly Rowland should’ve been a single!

No it wasn’t!

Yes she is under rated some of those albums people didn’t wanna hear 👂🏽 were amazing def should go listen no she’s no Vocal god but where that lacks her words m moves makes up all the way

Vastly underrated. A lot of people think she stopped making music since 2003-2004 she’s been making music still and to this day

@@Iamchrisshorts Her videography is LEGENDARY!😩

@@thequeen3834 her biggest downfall was separating from jazze pha. And her style changed. As a true Ciara fan myself. I can say that her first 2 albums were bangers. Then Jive records screwed her up in her 3rd album Fantasy Ride and 4th album Basic Instinct. Let’s address fantasy ride. The singles were all wrong. The lead single was never ever which was ok however love ,sex and magic feat. Justin Timberlake should of been 1st lead single. Then her 3rd single work feat. Missy Elliott was released internationally not in USA. Which we know that when ciara pairs up with Missy it’s automatically a #1 top charting hit , however it still was a banger. Now let’s focus on Basic Instinct. Ride was lead single which was great . Her other singles on album like speechless was eh wasn’t a hit though and 3rd single which was gimme that she spent money out of her own pocket . That’s when she made a press release statement and via Facebook / Twitter that she was constantly fighting with jive records. She was ignored on some singles that she wanted out. In fantasy ride she wanted song high price with Ludacris to be a single and she was ignored. And then basic instinct she wanted singles turn it up featuring usher a single and wants for dinner. Not to mention jive records pushed the album sales multiple times for her 3rd and 4th albums that by the time they came out fans were like oh ok. She keeps saying it will be out and then nvm. Which caused frustrations from her fans , which i was one of them.

@@chrisman3431 she was 100% around in 04 so take a seat

She sure is gorgeous, Russell Wilson is one lucky bastard

I love Ciara. Every time people speak about her either celebrities or regular people they all say she is a sweet person. That’s great bc she does seem like genuinely nice person.

I agree I saw her a couple of times and she’s literally so sweet and her performances are amazing

Lucky

I met her a few years back. She's very nice.

Agrees

I agree!! In fact DLWML was one of the first Ciara songs I listened. I haven’t checked out all her discography, but I do know a few of her greatest hits and I like them 😊

Also Promise

DLWML is just absolute gold, one of my favourite songs ever

U forget like a boy

Best comment because that queen stays slaying

She’s disappeared from the charts. And today is mostly seen on social media.

Exactly!

@@CHEETAH69 because she is no longer making music like before.

I agree. She’s been able to stay relevant for a long period of time!

I was caught on camera at my old job doing 1, 2 step (badly). I wasn't aware they'd just installed new cameras in the elevator. Awkward yet fun times

@@rahbeeuh Looool. Good! Live life! 👍🏽👍🏽

@@d2dar459 😂 I *try* to keep that same energy on the daily.

Exactly

@@rahbeeuh Hey fuck it, keep doing what ur doing. 🤷🏽‍♂️👍🏽💯

Without a major fanbase????

Lies. CSquad stands strong for Ciara

@@CiaraContent neverr heard it im sorrys whjes

@@CiaraContent Are y'all loud though?😭

@@bmwjourdandunngoddess6024 Ciara has platinum records that extend from 2004 til 2019. We are loud and we take action babe

Yes a wife as well

@@DANIYEL-ev8ek a lot of people think she stopped making music since those early times when she’s still making music today. She’s still underrated

@@DANIYEL-ev8ek but Mariah has been in the game longer and has nothing to prove nobody buys ciara's new songs if they did they wouldn't flop as well as her new albums she's more big on Instagram and doing modeling gigs which is cool .

@@shawnhall9792 just say you hate her, i mean i see your negative posts about her, downplaying her success even with people giving you evidence of her music success, her last song has over 3 million views which is a hard thing for artists of today to achieve unless you are household name like Taylor Swift or Ariana Grande.

@@kamogelomosweu1869 also Taylor swift is a grown ass female around ciara's age the reason behind her success is her loyal fanbase and record label ! If ciara's fans go hard for her instead of arguing with random people on youtube maybe her albums wouldn't have to flop and maybe she could see great singles charting and doin well on the charts

@@kamogelomosweu1869 it's only negative to ya'll because it's the damn truth you stans be delusional as hell when the stats don't add up she isn't a household name due to nobody really caring anymore besides her fans .

wow, never even thought of that but her halftime show would be insane

She also has a lot of hits that I can imagine there being enough material for people to recognize and get down with

@@dannyrivera2733 she'd HAVE to open with Goodies or 1,2 step

@@GETYOUREDUCATION I have and I think it’ll happen soon!

@@B_Querida I don't think so... But we can hope

Britney

criminally is right!

@@chrisman3431 Ciara can dance but she's a one trick pony. You have people like J Lo, Beyonce and Mya who are all trained in tap, jazz, ballet and modern and they showcase all of those.

@@lanadelray2354 lmfao britney can't touch Ciara

@@natsohigh5552 Can't agree with this...Ciara easily outdances JLo and Bey, it's not even close. Ciara will outdance male professional dancers and can dance multiple styles so im genuinely thrown by the 'one trick pony' comment. Ciara could easily dance anything Beyonce or Jlo do but they would struggle with some of Ciara's moves. A young JLo would keep up as she was a dancer by profession, but Bey is very much a singer first and dancer second. Shes a great dancer but her choreography has never matched the complexity of Ciara in my opinion. Respectfully, Single Ladies choreography would be childs play to Ciara.

Let’s not forget that Jive dissolved right after Basic Instinct was released. She came back hard with “Ciara” in 2013 though 🔥 It was a rough comeback but she made it through 🙌🏾

Thank you!

@@chrisman3431 they have all gone on record to say Ciara has inspired them.

@@chrisman3431 girl, move

I forgot all about fantasy ride. "Go Girl" was a bop for real 🔥

She dropping music pretty soon

Damn, i remember when she was with the misoginy god itself (Future)

@@akamarux75 lol more like Failure

That part.

So true i love it

@@chrisman3431 Ciara is a legend. Being popular doesn’t mean you’re a legend dear.

@@chrisman3431 I understand where you are coming from especially when comparing to the biggest artists of all time

@@chrisman3431 I agree with you

@@chrisman3431 oh wow...do you have a link of Jazzy phae saying that???

@@concamon1364 💯

and Jive (the label) during the Fantasy Ride era was trying to make Ciara the 'Black Britney' instead of helping her. ugh

It takes more than beauty to be commercially successful in this business. Ciara has not been able to keep up with the changes in the industry. She was quite successful with R&b songs and albums in the early 2000s alongside Rihanna. But, she stuck to old R&B song formulas and clichéd lyrics about cheating and infidelity. Rihanna only remained relevant because in 2010 she started producing more pop singles and albums with a strong influence of dance, house and electronic music, which at the time was the most played in Europe. Rihanna worked with djs David Guetta and Calvin Harris who produced her biggest commercial hits. Not only is Beyoncé a well-rounded artist who can really sing, dance and act and has songs that stand out in each decade, but she also has a more entrepreneurial eye that has helped take her career to other, higher places. She fired her father who had been her manager since Destiny Child and took risks betting on another path that proved to be extremely successful.

She’s a mogul in the making clothing line , accessories line , fragrance (won an ward for it) , Owns a liquor etc I could go on she’s still that girl if not better

I agree! I loved Beyoncé and Janets shoutouts to her!

Never gets old

SURE IS.

I Bet was (still is) banger in so many ways ❤️‍🔥🔈🔈

The very reason it went platinum and being the biggest RNB song that year

@@samilahhoahoe5125 LMAO

Ciara problem was she left her lane which was crunk to do other types of music

@@samilahhoahoe5125 just no.

perfectly stated tbh

To people who never knew her. The fuck. Lol

Like MLK🤔

A ROLE MODEL.

It's crazy "like a Boy" came out like a whole year before "if I was a boy"

@@RobGradyVO if i was a boy and like a boy are wayyy different 😭.

😂

The Evolution and Jackie are even more iconic

I agree. Overdose, I’m Out, Super Turnt Up, that “Ciara” was a really strong album that should have been promoted a lot more especially with a tour but I believe she got pregnant and the record label shelved any more promo.

Glad someone finally realizes how great her self titled album was

@@livinglikeaghost2340 it’s her best imo 🙌🏾

@@concamon1364 I get what your saying. That album just sounds so dated and stale. Ciara sounds timeless and contains some of her most catchy and infectious songs. And it came at a time after she experiences numerous set backs and delays. Basic Instinct had flopped after Jive dissolved. She could’ve crumbled but she came out triumphant with her best album. I feel like that’s why it’s her magnum opus 😅 but I respect your opinion

shes collabed with usher and chris brown

Literally my favorite song from her

I love that song!

Who sung it 1st?

@@Serenityblu23 The Rolling Stones

Absolutely agree with that. I still play her version still.

It definitely seems like she wanted to explore more pop sounds for her self titled album and subsequent albums. I wish she would’ve had the chance to do so sooner!

@@Jamaal.R. yeah, whenever a pop artist waits more than two years to come out with their next project, and they don’t already have a very large strong fan base, it always spells out the end of their popularity. Same thing happened with artists like Fergie. That first solo album was such a massive success and then the long wait was the nail in the coffin

hell, even her selftitled album had 2 pretty successful hits, but the album still didn’t do so hot. it’s literally so weird.

Oh,what a tired cliche.

She didn't disappear... She's just not as popular and successful as she used to be at her firts years of career, something that eventually happens to all artists.

@@chrisman3431 can you please let people have their own opinions, she may not be a legend to you but to some she is and that's okay we're all entitled to our own opinions

this next era I don't think she's playing any games. From what she's stated so far, we're gonna be getting some nice urban leans

@@CiaraContent I’m honestly here for it , I have all her albums. Been supporting her for years. I really want her to step outside of the box and get more experimental. PUSH the boundaries .. I do feel she’s in a different mindset then previous(simply because we’re now seeing her take steps she didn’t take in the past). But Ciara has the potential to be wayyy more then what she is .. I don’t think she has anything to prove BUT I want her to be put in a position where she’s respected and given the flowers she properly deserves ♥️

@@CiaraContent I could definitely see Ciara coming out with something like Chloe's "Have Mercy" 🔥🔥🔥

@@IOnlySpeakTruth2 I agree with everything you said. I want her to really apply pressure this next go round. Force these fairweather fans and naysayers alike to dance and cry to your music, Queen!

@@WhatsTrendingWithTrenton Oh, she easily could. That song is an extension of Goodies sonically and lyrically
