PREVIEW CIARA’S BASIC INSTINCT

Ciara is giving fans a chance to preview 30-second snippets from her upcoming fourth album, Basic Instinct before it’s released December 14.

The album includes the lead single, “Ride” featuring Ludacris, as well as the follow-up singles “Speechless” and “Gimme Dat”. Other tracks we’ve mentioned include “I Run It” and “Turn It Up” featuring Usher.

    forth coming??! rah… she took her time

  2. marymag

    fucking flop!

    this is going to flop worse than basic instinct. at last justin threw her a bone and gave her a top 10! now she has no one to piggyback ride off of. poor heci!

  3. I love the first three amazing singles, I also loved as well, ‘shut them up’, it’s fire and the song called ‘why you’ dont like the two others, my least fav is ‘turn it up’. I’m so buying the album! I hope she does well, she deserves & better promote these weeks! I thought they learned from their mistakes, now people need to support & buy what she has to offer or she gonna flop. The artist worked, now the label need to promote her well & fans need to buy singles & albums, then she can be successful. But I feel like her fans don’t even buy her music at all. Goo luck.

  4. Stacy

    It sounds like a great album. I’ve been a Ciara fan since Goodies and I will be supporting this one too.

    I’m feeling Turn It Up , What’s For Dinner , Gimmie Dat and I Run It so far.

  5. uhuru

    You got to be delussional to say this album is good. total garbage. This is worst than Fantasy ride The is Basic trash.
    This album has been push back for ever. everytime she’s back in the studio work with this and that producer.
    The A&R need to be fired. I guess the label must have gave her a small budget, because these tracks cannot be the best track money can buy. She said sshe spend $10.000 per month on shoes maybe she should have save that money and pay for good tracks.I know the dream and Tricky would never give Rihanna these stupid tracks she would leave on the floor.

    • In$able^^

      You can’t promote trash lol

    • chile please!

      Yes!! Amen to this! I don’t understand why people just can’t see that this chick is wack. Being a good dancer is not going to improve your vocals, she’s suppose to be a singer not more of a dancer. I swear music sucks today..everybody just putting albums out back to back just to make money but in the end fail. I need some 90′s music back in my life.

    • YEP

      I so agree with Chile….

    • 2gunz4Pooh

      YES! i agree i think its going to flop sorry ci ci you took to long girl i will cop the LP but not legally LMAO

    • clbooker

      artist put out records back to back not for YO ASS but for their fans. they dont want to keep them waiting unlike some people leave the game and come back trying to get on top again like they did in the 90′s but they are struggling and they wonder why they aint known to the world anymore. and fans find themselves asking why they sleeping on a certain artist

  6. welfareCase

    I feel so sorry for her. But hey thats the music industry for you

  7. HOTNESS

    HOT HOT HOT! Get em Cici.

  8. HOTNESS

    Heavy rotation is Hot…
    Yeah I know is HOT….

    This album is HOT.

  9. Dude-N-Htown

    Ummm Ciara….you might wanna release a video anthology. Cuz your videos be dope, but this album …not so much. Yeah its gonna flop.

    But Cici is still my girl. I’ll be shocked if she sells over 150,000 her first week

  10. EQ

    How can people says it’s garbage when your only get :30 snippets. That’s the definition of HATE right there lol.

    Personally, it sounds good to me based on the “snippets,” and I’ve never bought a Ci-Ci album so I’m completely unbiased.

    • chile please!

      You know what it is?? It’s because she doesn’t sound no different & the production sounds very cheap & rushed! I’m convinced off of these snippets that this album is going to flop! WACK WACK WACK!

    • Try Again...

      Chile Please! has somewhat of a good point. The Dream is always makin’ things sound the same. I will admit some of the snippets sounded good, but I’m not really sure about this album. I wish her luck though!

    • truthfullyspeaking

      Your comment makes no sense because if a track is that good, THE BEAT WILL CAPTURE YOU RIGHT AWAY WITHIN SEVERAL SECONDS! It will make you think, oh damn, that sounds like it’s going to be hot or, you’ll hear something that sounds different and off but has something in it that may make you like it if you heard the whole song.

    • jalisa

      I 100% agree with this comment.!! like, how are we gonna know if a song is really all that unless we hear the WHOLE thing.!!? -___- because some songs get either get really good or really wack when it comes to the chorus or the bridge. sometimes its the chorus or the brigde that can really make a song what it’s worth. so to “thruthfullyspeaking” YOUR comment makes no sense. u cant judge a song just by the beginning of it.! smh.

  11. well…i’ve always loved cici…but i did not buy the last album…i have to say though…i might be getting this one…it seems cute…kinda like how she was when she first came out…i’ll tell you what though…THAT GONE FOR TOO LONG SONG…i play that before i go out to the club…that one is hot!

  12. SHADE

    Yall got the title wrong its called BASICALLY-IT-STINC!!!!!!!!

  13. SHADE

    or Basically Extinct!!!!!!!

  14. BE

    Ciara is a joke. I wish this sister the best, but I don’t like the direction her career has gone. It’s too over sexualized.

  15. Chanel

    I hate this album, just like the rest. Whoever produced Speechless, Ride, and You can get it, those are the type of songs she need to stick to. All the other songs are everywhere… No one is pop lock and dropping it in the club to a top 100 song/beat….

  16. In$able^^

    Concreteloop thanks for being nice but this is a FLOP as said above by my colleagues

  17. @poohzizbigga

    i cant get into ciara any more i used to really like her in the evolution days but theres really nothing that she can do to impress any1 anymore her voice will always sound the same her songs latley have been soso and she has no musical identity/creativity

  18. LaShonda

    How is Ci-Error still signed? 3 flop slbums and 0 #1 singles, anyone with sense would have dumped her long ago. She is so stupid, running around LA with Kim K buying shoes while her album gets delayed by weeks. The result is that there is only one place for this album and her career: in the trash can.

    • Tyree

      No, you’re stupid. If you wanna come for Ciara get your info right talking bout she had 3 flop albums and 0 #1 songs smh…gtfo with your ignorant a$$…

    • Unknown

      Soon enough she will get dropped especially with these simple lyric songs… C ERROR I’m not buying your album what a disappointment

  19. Kate

    LOVE it

    LOVE it

    LOVE it

  20. Mr. West Coast!

    This is BLACK on BLACK Hate at it’s finest! White people don’t go on Blogs to tell you how much they don’t like a Katy Perry or Avril Album.

    • Please STFU. Ain’t no one hatin. Ciara hasn’t even done any promo. If it wasn’t for this CL post I wouldn’t even know her album was coming out. I think she may as well cancel the release because the sales figures are just going to be plain embarrassing.

    • jalisa

      word.! -___- when does she EVER get good promotion. whoever is in charge of promotinng her albums need to be FIRED.! they still havent learned from the last two flops. she just needs to start over with a whole new team.

    • DAFINESTGRL

      PUH LEASE(PLEASE) U NEED TO GO ON A WHITE BLOG SITE AND SEE IF THEY DONT GO IN ON THE WHITE STARS TOO! B/C THEY SURELY DO. AN OPINION IS AN OPINION IF UR A HORRIBLE SINGER THAN UR A HORRIBLE SINGER NO ONE IS GONNA GIVE U BROWNIE POINTS FOR BEING BLACK OR WHITE

  21. Ms. Hahahahaha

    I’m buying R. Kelly and Michael Jackson on December 14.

  22. Imagine

    I LOVE AMERIIE.

    I’LL ONLY BUY AMERIIE, MICHAEL JACKSON (not the new scam album) OR JANET JACKSON.

    MY MUSIC IS VERY RESTRICTIVE THESE DAYS BECAUSE OF ALL OF THE GIMMICKS IN THE INDUSTRY

  23. Diamond Latrelle

    The CD (based on the snippets) sounds like it would be a decent effort for her fans to enjoy. I’m not a Ciara fan, but she does come through with decent dance tracks

  24. iRIDE4cici.

    This album sounds pretty hot. She came hard with this one. The dream and tricky kinda had me worried because of their last failed attempts with Mariah and other artists albums, but I’m glad they recognized that Ciara required more elements of r&b music than just the typical songs they give everyone else. Great album.

    Wants For Dinner, Yea I Know, Turn It Up, Heavy Rotation, & U Can Get It sound like smashes to me.

    AND I SEE CIARA GOT YALL ON HERE PRRRREESSSSSEEDD!!!!!

  25. iRIDE4cici.

    A lot of traffic coming in because of his album, huh?

    There would be no need to put in the extra time & effort to hate and convince everyone else not to like her if she wasn’t doing something right. If she really sucked, u wouldn’t have to try to convince everyone that she does.

    Stop being a lame and get a life YES IM TALKING TO YOU CHILE PLEASE!!!!!

  26. Gia

    I feel like I’ve already heard the album and not because with the exception of three songs I’ve never heard before, I’ve heard all the others from leaks. The sound and everything she’s talking about I’ve heard her do before. Two out of the three new songs on the album I haven’t heard before, sound good. “Heavy Rotation”, and “Girls Get Your Money” but Yeah I Know sounds like a Hey Daddy(Daddy’s Home) rip off.

    I think Ciara is going to be the Mya of this decade and just fade away over time.

  27. blessedone

    Too dancy for me…but I hope it does ok. I like Ciara.

  28. truthfullyspeaking

    I just can’t wait until she releases this album and then it flops hard so the Ciara stans can stfu! I’ve heard all of the singles she’s released or leaked, which is damn near half of the album and now the clips, and I must say that this is complete crap. These singles sound so much like the singles from her first album and her first album I didn’t enjoy. Not only that but, ALL OF THESE SINGLES SOUND THE SAME! I don’t like any of the singles she’s released and so therefore, I don’t like anything else that sounds like it. She spent half a million dollars recording this crap and it sounds like she spent 50,000. The only song that stands out and has a nice beat is “I Run It,” even though the lyrics are nasty. I just can’t stand Ciara because she’s turned into another sexually, desperate, attention seeking, lame. Plus, she can’t sing for ish. OMG her voice is annoying. Her best album was “The Evolution.” It wasn’t amazing, but it had mostly good songs on there and a nice mix of hip-hop and R&B that was urban crossover. BTW, these songs are ghetto.

  30. jalisa

    I like the OLD ciara. the one that made songs like “1, 2 step” and “goodies”. even “and i” was okay. but honestly, i feel like she’s trying TOO hard. i love artists who have songs that seem so effortless and STILL manage to be hits. like Jazmine Sullivan. she doesnt come off as trying too hard. thats why she’s one of the very few artist who have REAL music and real fans. but with ciara, she’s trying too hard. which is why her music sounds all over the place with no direction. i DO however like all three songs she released from this album though. (ride, speechless, and gimme that) :) i wont be buying the album but i’ll download a couple tracks. lol;

  31. Beystanbish

    Wow. Y’all are going hard. Poor Cici. The industry is not for everybody.

  32. Ansel

    You know it’s really sad how black people can just HATE on each other so much. You all act like Ciara personally went to all yall’s houses and cussed yall out or something or came for you an your family!! What is wrong with you people?! This is why we can’t get anywhere as a race because we’re always bringing each other down!! Yall need some serious help smh…oh, and the fact yall hate this girl so much obviously means she’s doing something right and when the album does become a success all yall can do is shut your hating mouths up!! Yall need to go to your nearest church because you need Jesus in your life!!

  33. getgot

    I knew it….this sux. I wonder if artist actually listen to some of the music they put out. The only joint i say is just alright and thats if i had just woke up from a 8yr coma is basic instint(u got me). everything else is so late 90 ish

  34. KD

    Its decent…I mean it could go both ways..a flop…or maybe sell somewhat good… dont know why she took too long for this album…nothing really special about it

  35. Friggidy

    Honestly dis shit is HORRIBLE… I HATE those dance soundin songs… she REALLY needa get back with Jazze Pha… cause ever since goodies everything been just AITE…Honestly i aint hear 1 HIT song in dem snippets!

    • LaShonda

      Real talk. She is an idiot, running around LA with Kim K buying expensive shoes while her album is delayed and them bad bitches take all the hot tracks and she is left with this dirt. This album sounds like all the tracks Keri, RiRi and Bey rejected, but Ci-Error with her no-talent ass and mediocre voice had to pick them up. Desperate b!tch.

  36. So I decided to waste 6.25 minutes of my life previewing her damn cd and my “basic instinct” about this basic album was right! FLOP!

  37. DarwinDevron

    Nothing really caught my ear just yet it’s just a snippet you can’t really tell. I been anticipating this album for the longest. I’m a Ciara fan. She Always have the best workout/ Dance tracks. I hope this album does well for her!!!! Go CiCi!!!!!

  38. DarwinDevron

    I hear alot of these track too .. she need to go in the studio and add about 3 or 4 more new tracks

  39. Erm Hello!!

    IMO When Ciara hit’s the booth she’s wasting everybody’s time, her’s, the producers, the record label, everybody. Her fan’s wish her the best, but they ain’t buying albums. Ciara has such a weak voice, her image is samey & tired. I liked her when she first came out, but imo she’s already peaked, & she can’t top what she first did.

  40. sayitloudhd

    Wants For Dinner and I like It, those last 2 tracks, r the only non-featured songs that I like. That and her two featured songs, that is featuring Ladacris and Usher, are all that I like. Sorry Ciara, I was staying supporting u but I cant with this album.

    If there will be any chance that a remix album is in the cards I will look 4ward to that and c if I would support that, ’cause for me, this aint quite it, enough for me to buy the album but the singles I mention. Again, sorry.

  41. sayitloudhd

    Another thing, I suggest Ciara get off of so much of that ghetto-sounding style. In todays world, that aint cool. U try taking a tour with this joint mainstream and the rest of the world and u’ll c what I mean. the world aint gon be hearing this especially like u say Ciara, “ladies get yo money”. Aint gon get it so with this ghetto sound.

    Please CICi, get it r i g h t! I wanna support u girl. Havent u been listening to the industry critics and rational fans/stans/supporters?! The blogs r filled with haters but there r those that wish u well though they critique u. Check ur management and ur music inner circle girl.

    • clbooker

      what do u want her to do. the last album she was trying to appeal to a new audience or crowd(WHITE PEOPLE) and doing something different but that didnt do to well. Her fans didnt like that. they wanted ghetto ciara that they knew and loved from the goodies album. and now she is giving them what they wanted. the problem is most of the songs already got leak. and then she makes us wait 6 months so she can give us songs that we already heard. but imma buy the album tho cuz i wanna support her. But i bet if this was her first album it would go straight to number 1 on the charts THIS CD IS STRICTLY FOR DIE-HARD CIARA FANS

  42. lisa

    CIARA HAS A BEAUTIFUL VOICE AND SHE IS THE BEST DANCER I EVER SEEN SHE DOES IT NATURALLY AND I’M GOING TO BUY 100 ALBUMS OF HERS IN ONE DAY FOR STOCKING STUFFERS GO CIARA WE LOVE YOU!

  43. traecaliber

    What happened to Get It Girl? I thought that was going to be on the album, and it was a hot song…

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9v50i_MqL4

    • clbooker

      HELL YEAH THAT SHIT IS DOPE I THOUGHT THAT WAS A SINGLE CUZ SHE PERFORMES IT ALL THE DAMN TIME . IMMA HUGE CIARA FAN BUT ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT SHE GOT ME. SHE GOT US ALL. FOOLED THE HELL OUT OF ME. I PREORDED THE CD THINKING SHE PUSHED THE ALBUM BACK TO CREATE GREATNESS BUT SHE MADE US WAIT 6 MONTHS FOR SOME MUSIC WE ALREADY HEARD. BUT NOW I AM ONLY LOOKING FORWARD INTO GETTING THAT AUTOGRAPHED POSTER OF HER UNLESS SHE REALLY DIDNT SIGN THOSE HER DAMN SELF EITHER

  44. thatoneyouknow

    i think that they decided that the radio wouldnt play it so they just took it off

  45. North London stand up

    *Sigh*I’m officially old. Forget my age, I must be old. Eitherway, I know i’m tired.

    What’s going on with music? All these tracks out now about get your money, sexy you silly, your b*tch chose me, take this bullet… Is my intelligence being insulted? I get it, I’m too stupid, so the lyrics have to be ‘non-poetic’ and extra overt, because I no understandy??Then,all the nakedness in the video- I’m a guy, so i’m programed to like it, and then maybe buy the record. Sure. Don’t worry about the fact that I just saw 20 others ‘artists’ do the same thing. Soon, they’ll be peeling off skin.

    I love love love love Ciara, but Corrine Bailey Rae has suddenly gained much more of my respect. Maybe the record companies feel that we must consume Music like we consume food.

    Lets just see about that.

  46. Candygirl

    Everyone SWEARS Ciara has haters and I can say that this album is purely trash and she needs to get blamed for it. If this album was good, I would give her respect and love just like I did for her first and second album. I’m not gonna praise her for failed work. Basic Instinct #fail.

  47. peach20

    if you don’t care for her album cool but their’s a lot of people will support her and the album sounds good. she will do great Go CiCi……

  48. swet2death

    i cant waitttt!!! damn ciara ur hotttt!! and for all the haters and those who thinks shes gonna flopp,….go suck something!!! team cici, we got ur bk!!!!

  49. Mrs. SK8board P (Ak & bk stan)

    LMAO @ MissCherryKisses

    yea this is totally going to flop.. but good luck anyway ciara.

  50. FashonistaKAY

    LOL YOU GUYS ARE GOING SOOO HARD! Bt i gta agree with the 90% of yall who said the album is garbage. I mean she is partially to blame – according to her she writes her own music. Personally, i think its time for her to grow up. A lot of these songs are songs tht women of her age wouldnt sing.I dnt mind the dancy tracks bc tht is her origin, bt foolishness like “wants for dinner”… c’mon, mannn.
    The album snds rushed, cheap, & is missing some parts like for 1 great producers! These beats are horrible. Bt, w/ an album like this she better come hard with the videos! Promote promote promote and stop spurlging with kim k and la la bc they cnt help you !

  51. love them all!!!

  53. Shadreya

    I’m a Ciara fan. I havent listened to the snippets but I peronally like “Gimme That”, “Speechless” and “Shut Em Up”. We’ll see how she do, I want her to succeed. Its sad people have to be so negative when we all know she’s not the best singer but she has improved a little better over the years but her dance moves ALWAYS COME CORRECT! I’m supporting regardless who does or don’t….GOOOOOOOOO CICI!

  54. ESECIARA

    CIARA GOES HARD WITH BASIC INSTICT LISTEn – LISTEN TO MY SONG: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kv2Fk9Lypsk

    aaaah beauuuuuuutiful

  58. lovelovelove

    I read all the comments I mean damn didn’t know Ciara was hated so much. When did this happen or are people doing it because of her stans? Stans can make you want to hate somebody because they act ignorant.

    Anyways I’m not hating I’m honestly not feeling anything but Turn it Up and that other song I forgot what its called. I liked Ride. Where’s her promo though? I can’t believe she’s going through with this. She should have released it the first time in August.
