Ciara is an incredibly talented singer-songwriter and she deserves so much more recognition! She is among my top five R&B artists. I love all the songs on this album. While the first half mostly consists of sultry, dance-pop oriented R&B jams, the second half demonstrates her vulnerability and her views on what love is really about rather than just a relationship between two people. (I know this may seem like a strange thing to say, but the general feel of some of the songs on this album makes me feel like I am on a road trip, lol!)
With regard to her vocals, I never really understood why people say Ciara can’t sing. I’ve seen videos of her singing live without any autotune at all and I’ve been blown away by her voice. She’s an amazing dancer as well. I feel like a lot of people underrate how difficult it is to sing and dance at the same time, and Ciara does a beautiful job of it without even needing to lip-sync.
The last thing I want to address is just how much she reminds me of Beyoncé. More specifically, I think Ciara looks a lot like her (long black curly hair, brown skin), and the way Ciara dances reminds me a lot of her as well. Another thing to consider is that Ciara’s style of music is very similar to Beyoncé (pop- and hip-hop- oriented R&B music).
Ciara’s 2004 debut album Goodies is a must-buy! It is one of my favorite albums ever and I’m sure anyone who is new to it will love it just as much, if not more, as I do!
