Well, I adore her.
I judge my celebrities based on their behavior when they get PUNKED.
She comported herself like such a lady.
(unlike Ashanti and Brandy)

To be realistic, all of the other songs on her albums dont sound like the singles, there some slow jams that on it. As far as her not really singing on her songs that are singles, thats what I was talkin about in my last post.

She really does have a good voice (you dont wanna listen to her album, you can hear a little bit of it "Oh" when she's ad-libin'), but she just aint showcasing it cause she mostly rap-sings.

that is true, she did handle that professionally.

Wasn't she great !
I loved how she kept saying crap, instead of the other.
I thought she was adorable.

I've listened to the entire record, and if she's truly hiding her vocal talent, she's doing a damn good job of it. She can't even sing live worth shit so

I noticed she does dance like Quasimodo at times...that's why I didn't get the hype about her dancing. And I don't think her height has anything to do with the "man" rumors.

Im always defendin Ciara and i still am-shes HOT i like her songs and her dancin'-so feelin her...

CalhounSq said:

It's hard to explain shit Calhoun, if I could I'd be a billionare. Ciara is garbage for real!!!!! She's not even all that cute, and musically it's the same shit track after track, so I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what her allure is also Calhoun. THESE DAMN KIDS LISTEN TO ANYTHING, DUMMIES!!!!

wow,im a "damn kid" i do listen 2 different kinds of music but im not dumb just b/c u think its garbage...but whatever,ppl say the same thing generation after generation and it always comes off bitter and old...its not even that serious ur here goin off like somebody cares or is gonna stop listenin 2 music that u think is garbage-u have ur opinions but no need 4 name callin,very imature of u

PleasurePrinciple said:

Listening to garbage like Ciara is imature IMO, not my comments. BTW I'm only 26 so I'm not old and bitter and I don't care who cares that's my opinion on her and her music. Yeah I directed that comment at the Kids because they are the only ones I know who would listen to Ciara and actually think that was good music. THEY NEED TO GET SOME FUNK IN THEIR LIVES!!!!!

being 26 and calling some1 a dummy b/c of their music interest not being imature...2 funny
ummm think about it im on a Prince fansite i obviously have some funk in my life
and just cuz ur not that old doesnt mean ur not acting old and bitter
I actually have 26 and 28 yr old cousins who r diggin Ciara and i have an Uncle who likes alot of the mainstream music even maybe more than me and hes like 48-it has absolutely nothin 2 do with age.And im 15 so likin Ciara is actually is not imature of me-now,diggin Prince at my age could be called mature.

OnionJuice said:

True, true.

Fleshofmyflesh said:

Damn, how bad has it gotten in music to where we now base our affinity for an artist off their appearance on Punk'D?

TonyVanDam said:

Ok, now that CAN'T be Ciara.

PleasurePrinciple said:

well said

I don't mind "1-2 step" (minimalist as it is) and Ciara has a certain charm reminiscent of Aaliyah in a way that is more believable than Ashanti. however it IS true that a lot of kids today only know r&b and hip hop through what's current and on the charts...I can understand the need for something current, but only buying stuff that's on the charts is not going to give you a well-rounded appreciation of music. which i think is the gist of what a lot of us 20-somethings have a problem with about today's charts...it's more about fashion and visuals than music. video killed the radio star....all that.


none of this is really directed at you by the way, PleasurePrinciple.

TheCrucialExperience said:

doesn't look anything like her, no. just a model with the same name.

TheCrucialExperience said:

For real! Nor should it be based on how well they comported themselves

PleasurePrinciple said:

I'm sorry I just can't see what the interest is in a weak voiced half talent Janet Jackson wannabe who's songs all sound the same, with you only being 15 I wouldn't expect you to understand where I'm coming from. Like you said you have "SOME" funk in your life being a Prince fan and that's a good thing, the further you dig into the funk the less you'll like talentless studio creation acts like Ciara.

JohnP said:

I completely understand u John P.-I know Ciara's music is not actual "music" b/c u dont hear 1 single instrument in it-but i still like it.thank u 4 replying 2 me w/o any name calling,its way easier 2 understand u coming 2 me in that way

someone smack Calhoun for me.....as i dance up on my car like Ciara in Oh!


I like her...I think she is entertaining at least.....I just take her as is...i think we compare folks too much nowadays..

and OMG....lose control with missy and ciara....I love that damn song...


sorry...

PleasurePrinciple said:

well, to get technical, music does not need to contain any live instruments at all to be music. it doesn't even really need to have any sounds in it at all if you want to get academic (see John Cage's "4:33"). however, what most people LIKE requires some form of human input and there is less and less of that in today's pop world. like ani di franco once sang:

"People used to make records
As in a record of event
The event of people
Playing music in a room
Now everything is cross-marketing
It's about sunglasses and shoes
Or guns or drugs
You choose

We got it rehashed
We got it half-assed
We're digging up all the graves
And we're spitting on the past
And we can choose between the colors
Of the lipstick on the whores
Cuz we know difference
Between the font of twenty percent more
And the font of teriyaki
You tell me
How does it make you feel?
You tell me what's real"
