A Little Background
Her album Ciara has debuted at number 2 on the Billboard Charts. Ciara hasn't had the best in the music field for the last 3 years.
When Ciara's debut album Goodies it was hot. Atlanta was the number one capital for southern car hopping music and Ciara capitalized on it big time. Singles like Goodies, Oh!, and One Two Step, were all chart topping bangers! With her AWESOME dancing skills and serious sexy swag Ciara became the it girl in music. But her style of music slowly began to become obsolete. And other talents began to emerge changing the landscape for Pop/R&B/Hip Hop artists. Talents like Rihanna, Katy Perry, Nicki Minaj, and Lady Gaga (these last two more so later than during her time but you get my drift).

Another hit was Ciara: The Evolution on that album she released several chart topping singles Promise (her biggest hit to date), Can't Leave Em Alone, Get Up and of course probably her biggest hit next to or beyond Promise, Like a Boy

She released new music on her album Fantasy Ride, it came out in 2009. Its breakout hit was Love Sex and Magic featuring Justin Timberlake. An international hit. After that she released a new album Basic Instinct but it didn't do as well as projected. Attributed to poor marketing by her label Laface, Basic Instinct barely went beyond #44 on the Top 100. Then her single Ride feat Ludacris garnered controversy when BET banned the video claiming it was too sexually charged for their network. The label didn't work on the promotion of Basic Instinct which resulted in Ciara having to market and promote her single Gimme Dat and her album Basic Instinct all on her own. Which didn't work out in her favor.
Fast forward to 2013 Ciara releases Body Party! Promoted very well and circulated constantly on Internet and public radio. Body Party was a sure fire hit and was number one on the charts and digital download for a very long time. Her follow-up single I'm Out featuring Nicki Minaj was just as huge.
Ciara has put herself on the map. Her singles are chart topping bangers and her album is currently #2 on the Billboard Top 200 charts. She's right between JAY-Z's Magna Carta Holy Grail and J. Cole's Born Sinner.
I'm glad she's back on top of the scene. Good for you girl!
