Bringing Sexy Back: Ciara Breathes New Life into R&B

By DeMarco Williams

R&B as we know it has been on life support. There’s no other way to put it. It’s wobbly. It hardly has a pulse on the charts. Hell, touch it—it’s ice cold.

Atlanta, once a proud incubator of the sound, has all but abandoned it, focusing all of its creative energy on hip-hop, a genre as vibrant now as it was 10 years ago.

But even though R&B’s prognosis isn’t the greatest, all hope isn’t lost. Modern-day ambassadors of smooth Miguel and Trey Songz are still crankin’ out the hits. Beyonce is still poppin’ up on the nightly news. Closer to home, acts like Keri Hilson and Usher are also doing all they can to keep the genre vibrant—Mr. Raymond’s 2012 smash single “Climax” can still get the club good and sweaty whenever DJs drop it.

Another homegrown talent who isn’t giving up on the sound is Ciara. And if anyone should know about its current well-being, it’s her. Ciara Princess Harris—an Austin-native-turned-A-town-repper—has seen pretty much every side of the industry. She’s been to the commercial mountaintop—her debut single, “Goodies,” was No. 1 in America for seven weeks in ’04—and has had her career dissected after subsequent commercial failures. But through it all, she remains hopeful that the genre she loves and cherishes will thrive again.

“One thing about Atlanta [music],” begins the Grammy-nominated siren, “I don’t know if I’d so much say that something was missing. There is never a dull moment [in the city]. Right now, Atlanta is more hip-hop dominated. There’s a moment where R&B isn’t the most common [sound]. It all just rotates and it goes in a circle.”

And as a show of just how much confidence she has in that last statement, Ciara is releasing her fifth album, a self-titled effort, in June. Some have rumbled as to why she’d record another CD after her last two projects, ’09’s Fantasy Ride and ’10’s Basic Instinct, failed to make a commercial dent. But Ciara is going with her gut, which is telling her that now is the time to get back out there with new material for the dance floor and the bedroom. (more…)

Highlights:
- they asked if we will ever hear One Woman Army track she said “stay tuned”
- about album: it’s a solid mix of R&B and Pop
- CiCi sang a little bit of “Super Turnt Up”, lyrics:
Boy your love is Super Turnt Up
I can’t Lie I’m Super Turnt Up
- she knows what her 2nd single is but she can’t say, but it’s uptempo.
- “Where You Go” is Produced by Mike Will. It’s sweet and Mid-Uptempo.
