♫ HOT OR NOT: CIARA’S “HIGH PRICE”

Monday, May 5, 2008

♫ CIARA FEAT. LUDACRIS - HIGH PRICE

Ciara has been working on her third studio album, Fantasy Ride (out in early September), and revealed that “High Price” was slated to be the first single. The album is slated to have a more “crunk&B” sound to it and although there is not a full version out, I just wanted to post a little snippet so you guys could take a gander and see how you feel about the new vocal direction that Ciara is chosing to take. The chorus seems to be using some sort of vocal effect which has been prevalent in music as of late, but on the verses, Ciara’s going for a more “opera-inspired” sound. Color me surprised.

CIARA’S NEW SONG IS….

  • HOT (52%, 2,246 Votes)
  • NOT (48%, 2,083 Votes)

Total Voters: 4,329

Shit is hot. Ciara is taking it to the next level with this track! Ciara understands that in order to stay relavent to music today, you gotta flip it like the wind….you gotta switch it up and throw people off. I love the opera-esque effect…that is some hot shit straight up and down. And what makes it so fly, is that nobody else is tapping into that sound, combine it with some crunk….I can’t even call it, that’s how hot that shit would be. Her next project will be critical to solidfying her place in R&B and as a trendsetter….much in the tradition of Janet Jackson. U betta do it Ciara!

The song is okay. As long as she can sing that shit live then she’s good….
I liked her last album so I hope that this new one is good too, but it will get downloaded first before I even think about buying it.

Tuesday, May 6, 2008 /

THIS SONG IS DOPE! Let the HATERS hate! People want to always complain about how tired they are of all that “Techno Shit” but then when someone comes out with somthing different, people want to hate. This sounds different. Ciara has her own style of music “yeah” maybe she isn’t the best singer…but she is a wonderful performer. I can see myself bumpin this song…and i guaruntee you all, when this video drops…everybody is going to be all over it! This song is already stuck in my head. It’s hot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I listened to the song before I read Brian’s review just to make my own opinion and I thought the same thing about the whole opera singer vocals. I applaud her for trying something different but the vocals aren’t really working for me. Maybe if we heard the whole song it might give us a different prospective on the song but for now I would say, re-do the vocals.

240.

I like it. I never been a fan of Ciara mainly cause i dont really like todays music
but this sounds impressive. I like the dark atmosphere that the singing and bass produce. And when the hook comes its a rap.

241.

Sam

Tuesday, May 6, 2008 /

This song is a piece of shit. It sounds like a man trying to sing like a soprano. She should stick to what she normally does. I hope she don’t think she actually sing. She just whispers really loud on tracks anyway. Did I mention this song is horrible?

243.

Since when did Mya have stans?
I only remember her because she did that moulin rouge song with christian aguilera and lil’ kim. But she hasnt had a very successful music career ( in Europe).

Every contemporary artist nowadays is expected to step up there game with every album, we live in an era of evolution and thats what consumers want.

Ciara’s talent lies in dancing, but I think she needs to prove she’s great vocally because we know she can dance her ass off. It would be good if she released a song that showed that she can sing perhaps a mid-tempo.

245.

Ok, at first I was like WTH! Is this some kinda joke?! But after a few listens I think its growing on me, lol…I cnt lie, her voice still trips me out but it works…the voice on the hook kinda sucks tho but with a lil more fine-tuning & a hot vid it should be good…N Luda’s voice on the track is fire!

I thought Ciara’s career is over. She needs to leave this music thing for people with real talent. She can’t sing, she can’t act, she can’t do a live show. What else can she do good at, she looks like a crackhead when she dances. That is a horrible song. She needs to quit music and go back to her day job.

259.

What you don't know won't hurt you

LMFAO LMFAO
it sounds like something my kid cousin makes up when shes bored n pretending to sing a song. WTF is this??? lmao honestly, that was a good minute n twenty seconds of laughing. oohh boy, bout shes trynna sound all opera-ish. And it does sound a bit like that other song with Luda. I applaud her efforts on trying to do something new..but she missed the mark entirely. Poor thing, cd’s gonna suck if she has garbage like this on there.

o well, chick cant sing no way!

285.

Shit is hot so fresh n new as Ciara always bring into the GAME!!! The Opera part is the hot part idk why ppl dont like Opera… oh I know because they arent exposed to REAL music!

HOT!!!!!!!! At first listen it catches you by surprise but by the second listen the song is kinda on point! Definitely gonna be a #1 hit! Props to Ciara for this new “opera-type” singing style and not following suit with the whole list of “stargate-produced” songs (Irreplaceable, With You, Because Of You, Go On Girl, Hate That I Love You, Take A Bow, etc.) THEY ALL SOUND JUST ALIKE!!!!!!!!! Ciara’s taking risks and I love her for that! Plus I finally heard Ludacris’ verse on the song on SINCERELYCIARA.COM and that shit is FIRE!!!!! LIKE THE-DREAM SAID ON 106 & PARK, IT HAD TO BE THE BEST 32 BARS LUDA HAS EVER SPIT ON ANY FEATURE HE’S DONE!!!!!!!

You bitches just don’t appreciate good music, cause this is hot as fuck, i can’t top listening to the snippet with both Ciara and Ludacris. It’s really different. Plus soon as the whole song comes out y’all be like damn. N u kno she gonna snap in the video that’s no doubt. Also y’all muadfuckas know yall be likin song when it be out for a while n gets hot so i dont wanna here how this song aint hot cuz it is

CAP

Friday, May 16, 2008 /

I’ll admit that the lyrics are hot! No doubt about it! IT’S THE VOICE!

No offense because I’ve always loved Ciara’s sultry and sexy voice that she has in most, if not all, her songs. The opera voice might be going too far, especially in a fast-paced song like this. If she was singing something softer or slower, like “Promise” or “And I”, I’d probably listen, but it seems too soon to show this much growth in her voice. Great song, bad choice of vocal ability!

I AM HOPING SHE HAS BETTER TRACKS ON HER ALBUM “FANTASY RIDE”!

294.

I WAS TRAINED IN OPERA SINCE THE AGE OF NINE AND THAT’S NOT OPERA… LEONA LEWIS’S VOICE IS MORE OPERA ORIENTED. IT’S A CUTE SONG….I JUST WISH SHE WOULD TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT. PART OF THE SONG REMINDS ME OF NELLY FURTADO’S VOICE. BUT ALAS I RESPECT CIARA AND I MUST SAY SHE IS DEFINITELY DOING HER THING. GOTTA RESPECT THAT…. IF IT COMES ON THE RADIO I WILL LISTEN. BUT JUST TO LET YA’LL KNOW THAT’S NOT OPERA AT ALL. JUST A MORE AIRY VOCAL.
