♫ Ciara – Supernatural (snippet) – listen
A new Ciara snippet has leaked from her upcoming album, Fantasy Ride. Even though the first single is supposedly called “High Price,” and features Ludacris, who made an appearance of Ciara’s first album, 2004′s Goodies, “Supernatural” leaked earlier today. From what I can tell of the snippet, “Supernatural” is a mid-tempo track that finds Ciara pretty much in the same place vocally as on Evolution. Although it’s nothing groundbreaking or Earth-shattering, I’m hoping that Ciara puts out a good product this time around.
♫ Sterling Simms – Stuck On Stupid (full) – listen
I really wanted good things for Sterling Simms – after hearing on “Dig A Hole” on Jay-Z’s Kingdom Come, and even though I hated his first single, “Jump Off,” featuring Sean Paul of the Youngbloodz, I loved his second single, “Nasty Girl,” but it didn’t do to well on radio or on the charts. And after more material leaked, I didn’t see any hints of cohesion on Sterling’s album. I think he just sort of got lost in translation. Shame, too, ’cause we need some dudes to hit hard in R&B.
♫ Thunderkatz – Anything (full) – listen
You may remember last year, we did an artist spotlight on the group Thunderkatz, who recently were signed to Irv Gotti’s The Inc. label. The group, which is actually a band (many people have made comparisons to The Blackeyed Peas, however, the Thunderkatz actually play instruments), is gearing up to release their album soon and will have a single hitting the airwaves within the coming months. I’m eager to see what they came up with.
♫ Mariah Carey – Love Story (full) – listen
Mariah has set “Love Story” to the third single from her album, E=MC². The video is being shot soon, and features Nick Cannon, who is also in the video for her scond single, “Bye Bye.” It looks like she’s going for a story the same way she did on Mimi with “It’s Like That” and “We Belong Together.” Fair enough too, because to me, this Jermaine Dupri-produced track sounds like “We Belong Together” part 7. I’m not mad at Mimi, though. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
I’m really feeling “love story.” MC has a variety of great songs on this CD.
BRIAN WHERE’S THE CIARA SONG!!! LOLOLOL i’m just kidding but where have i heard that music from can someone tell me?
The Mariah Bye Bye remix with Jay-z is fire I just listen to it on You Tube
EWWWW Ciara’s song is HORRIFIC!! WTF is she trying to do??Yuck.
blaah… CL Can we get a post on Malcom X’s grandson. He was released from prison and is on the cover of Giant mag….
ciara sounding better each album, mariah is just gon do even better with this album.
I’m lovin’ Ciara’s track and I absolutely love Mariah’s joint!!! JD is the man!! I like ThunderKatz song too… very positive!! He remember me of Common in certain parts of the song… just his voice.
Same place vocally as the Evolution. Yeah, your on crack rocks, thats all that needs to be said.
Mariah’s song is GREAT, along with her whole album.
i already have ciara’s song on repeat, mariah just needs to let it go i like her n she will always b one of the best but her performances have been bad lately …. her voice is gone
Ciara is jsut ok her shit sounds the same all the time, nothing great.
streling jsut ok he need to really come outta the box if he wants to make a impact on music the dude is talented but so is the dude singing on my block so he gotta come with fire.
OMG! MY BIG SIS IS KILLIN IT WIT DEM VOCALS. DA SONG IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND IT GOT A NICE R&B TO IT. CICI IS GONNA TEAR IT UP DIS YEAR. AND 4 THA HATIN ASS BITCHES WHO STILL SAY SHE CAN’T SING I BET Y’ALL CAN’T FUCKIN SING SO GET OFF OFF CICI’S CLIT AND GET A FUCKIN LIFE!
@57. me too!
oh and only lazy ppl say “if it ain’t broke down fix it”. visionaries try to do different things. i’ve never heard ppl actually promote ppl not evolving or growing as artists. that’s like saying that a good actor shouldn’t continue to study their craft b/c they’re already good and there’s no point in getting better. that’s like saying that a student who gets an B on an exam shouldn’t strive to get an A b/c they’re already in a good position to pass. no wonder why america has so many lazy ppl
I’M ONLY 19 too, and i like the old school music better than this garbage that’s on the radio and tv.
Why is it that people can’t sing when they can sell over millons of records, it just so ridiculous that there are thousands of people with different ranges and styles but just because she’s not belting and huffing in every breath doesn’t mean she can’t sing!! And with that being said for an example what if i said bey can’t sing because i know 5 girls at my church off the top that will blow her away in every scale she think she can hit. Why because our other talented stars get dogged because they don’t sound just like her. I can’t even use Mc because i’ve seen and heard her go church as a really soulful singer, but i can’t really say that about any of the younger and up coming r&b/ POP singer/ songwriter! Go U tube total, kut klose, swv, monkensteff (he’s mine), something for the people, 702, tlc, xscape, blaque, these girl groups had great quality radio music that had good concepts and writing really simple and sleek and not too fancy !! I promise you’ll be like bring the 90′s back! lol
there’s some good artist out here: John Legend, Musiq Soulchild, Raheem,Alicia Keys,Jill Scott, Anthony Hamilton,Talieb Kwaili, Mos Def, Kayne, Jay-z, Nas(etc) but the most of these artist including rap artist are garbage.
FUCK THA REST!!!
CIARA’S SONG IS bawling!!! LOVE IT!!! MAN….WANNA HEAR ALLL OFF THEM..MAANNNNNN!!!! KMT….hwo ever leaked tha song….(THANK YOU) lol!!
SHE CAN DEFINATELY SING!!!!!

but i already heard ciara’s -ME LIkey! to me…she comes of as 1 of the most dedicated ppl in the music industry! shes a blessing to our community!
SHE SUPER talented too!
MARIAH IS SOOO LAME NOW!!!!!
CIARA DOES NO WRONG!!!
(she showed alot intelligence @ hip hop summit Lst weekend..)
STERLING SIMMS ehhh “WHO THE F*CK IS THAT”
the ciara song is just a SNIPPET ppl..(a guessing DANJA produced it…..he’s beats are garbage)…! thou (i remember hearing the snippet of like a boy and thnkin…wat…but the full song was DOPE!)
DO YOU CIARA!!!!!
MARIAH- isnt as hott as she used to be..bt this chick still got the voice! so fuck tha LEONA JEWISH….girl!
I like Ciara’s snippet so far
Im not feeling Sterling’s song. The lyrics are pretty cool but I don’t really care for the beat/melody.
I like ThuderKatz song, one of the rappers sound like Common ( I don’t think he’s trying to, but they just have similar voices. That’s not a bad thing tho)
I like Mariah’s song. Sounds like her typical songs but like as Brian said, “If it’s not broken don’t fix it”.
TALISSA J….BITCH PLEASE, WHATS IS CIARA YOUR EX, HOE SIT DOWN.
“THE SONG AT HAND” IS AVERAGE AT BEST. NOTHING SPECIAL. “HIGH PRICE” IS A BETTER CHOICE…I WILL SAY THAT SONG IS HOTTER.
BUT MARIAH BEEN THE GAME ALMOST 20 AND HAS, FOR THE MOST, STAYED CONSISTANT. I DON’T LOOK TO M.C. FOR INNOVATION, I LEAVE THAT TO THE MADONNA’S, MISSY ELLIOTS AS FAR CLASSIC LOVE SONGS WITH RELATEABLE LYRICS AND BEAUTIFUL MELODIES I LOOKED TO MARIAH, WHITNEY, NEYO AND BABYFACE. IF I JUST WANNA SHAKE MY ASS, OR TUNE OUT, I WILL PLAY RIHANNA, CIARA OR T-PAIN OR ANY NUMBER OF THE FLAVOR OF THE MONTH ARTISTS OUT HERE.
OH AND I REMEBER WHEN PEOPLE WERE SAYING CIARA WAS GOING TO BE THE NEXT JANET….CITCH GOTTA ALLOOOOONG WAY TO GO. I MEAN I AIN’T HATIN ON HER SHE GOT A FEW GOOD SONGS, BUT NO DEPTH, NO REAL SOUND OF HER OWN, THIS STUFF IS OK FOR PEOPLE UNDER 21, I’M NOT KNOCKIN IT, I MEAN I AM 27, I HAD MY TIME TO ENJOY MUSIC I GUESS, BUT TO SAY CIARA IS INNOVATIVE OR DIFFERENT, EVOLVING? PLEASE, SHE IS JUST WORKING WITH NEW SONGWRITERS AND PRODUCERS, THAT NOT EVOLVING, THAT JUST HIRING SOME NEW TALENT TO KEEP YOU RELEVENT.
@83 she’s not Jewish. she’s white and Guyanese,Caribbean(BLACK,LOLOL LET’S KEEP IT REAL PEOPLE LOLOLOLOL!!!)
Ciara – ok, the video might sell this one
Sterling – this is cool, I agree with you on him Brian
Thundakatz – I like their positive lyrics, i could see the BEP comparison, they may be good in concerts if they all play intruments
MC- this is prob the sound E=MC2 should have went for, better than the other songs she’s release
CIARA CAN’T SING;……GREAT ENTERTAINER, ATTR4CTIVE AND NICE BODY AND DATING 50….THAT’S IT.
I’M NOT FEELING CIARA SONG SUPERNATURAL.
I KINDA LIKE MARIAH CAREY SONG THOUGH
Ciara new song is hot and she has improved she will get better with time. She really want it!
I love Mariah but not feeling this
OMG IM LOVING CIARA’ S New SONG!!! Love the lyrics she is a grown woman now!!! IDK what CL is talking bout Vocals are higher,better. Also Cant Wait for the High Price heard reviews saying its nothing we never heard before and is a mega hit!!! And Fantasy Ride Def. coping that! Also Sterlin song is HOT! Mimi like her music.
IDK what Brian and a few haters on here Talking about CIARA New Song is BLAZING,HOT,FRESH, NEW!!! So Supernatural oh OH! lol CIARA can sing just not a powerhouse singer… Janet Madonna are ones who cant sing 4 sh*t! Anyways I cant wait for High Price heard that one is a BIG HIT! And love her lyrics she is such an good devoted artist. Love hearing stuff from her.
Mimi Song is nice and LEONA LEWIS Whack azz aint never the next MIMI!!!
love da ciara joint….she coming hard this year
and mimi’s voice is gone…i guess she can only sing in the studio….she even lip synced on american idol……who the fuck does that….lol
Why do people keep saying ciara’s last album FLOPPED? It sold over 2 million…last time I heard…that’s not a flop…AT ALL!!
I like her and mariah carey new song. Everybody else…boo…
I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT PPL R HEARIN WHEN THEY SAY THAT CI’S JOINT IS NOT HOT, BUT WE’RE NOT HEARING THE SAME OBVIOUSLY CUZ CI IS DEFINITELY BRINGIN IT THIS YEAR. THAT JOINT IS OFF THE CHAIN!
that simms dude sounds like a young usher, not really feeling the track tho.
Thunderkatz track is very positive, but not really feeling the track either.
Mariah’s track is pretty good..its not my favourite track out there, but it has growing potential. Something about it tho makes me want to sleep, not being disrespectful at all lol.
I cyant stand Ciara, never could doubt i ever will…however, i like this song. She actually can sing now, dont know what she was doing before. But ye, this track is pretty good, i see vocal coaching has done well with her.
I’m not feeling Ciara’s song.
I’m not feeling Sterling Sims either.
I’m not feeling the Thunderkatz either, there like Black Eyed Peas Number 2.
Its all lame…
Ciara snipet is kewl
Sterling hate the choice of words Stuck on Stupid lol what is he in the 3rd grade
Thunderkatz ahh it might grow on me put hey no promises lol
Mariah song I like it kewl beat it has that Bone thugs & harmony flow
Ciara’s song is nice.
As usual, all the haters will jump on the bandwagon when her album drops.
Ciara’s vocals are very limited. She has a nice light, soft tone, and that’s why people think she can sing. But her voice is not good enough to be a singer. Her voice sounds extra young and airy on this track! I used to be a Ciara fan until she turned like every other manufactured whore of a singer like all the rest. She tries to hard to be grown and sexy. She’s so wack and his song is boring and lame.
Mariah Carey’s song is cool. Y’all need to stop being so biased on this blog. Don’t bash Mariah but praise Ciara just because you all are tired of seeing Mariah. Y’all did the same thing with Beyonce and Rihanna!
Ciara’s song is GREAT. I think shes the most dedicated woman in the industy right now
Ciara’s joint was HOT!!! Classic R&B to me!!! Something out of the 70s or 90s with an 08 twist!!!
I agree, Ciara is the MOST dedicated woman in the industry!!!
Her longevity is GREAT!!! And she dont overexpose herself!!! Notice shes doin snippets!!!
Dont understand when ppl say she cant sing. She has wonderful vibrato!!! And about her “trying to hard to be grown” she fuckin 22!!! It comes NATURAL!!!
What we’ve all been waiting for…..WWW.MYSPACE.COM/ARMELSWORLD
R&B’s back!
