Two Twits Talking Ish: Ciara’s Fantasy Ride Album Review
May 5th, 2009
UH OH! Let me make one thing extremely clear- we have a lot of love and respect for the artists we review. In fact, we’re so critical of these aforementioned artists because we know the material that we critique and disapprove of can be better, which is why we say the things we do.
During our first trial one with Rick Ross’, “Deeper Than Rap” Lp, we went in. We gave our true feelings, critiqued it the way it was supposed to be critiqued and of course added the blunt and snappy commentary Dre and I are known for having. This time around, we again, didn’t hold our tongues.
I’m a huge fan of Ciara, as is Dre (I think) so it’s only right we give her our honest opinions. Clearly, the industry is filled with a cabinet full of “Yes men and yes women” and with this type of review, I believe we’re starting the trend of breaking that mold. Again, we’re not hating on CiCi, just giving a blunt review of her new offering in 140 characters or less. lol. ENJOY! Oh, if you know what’s good for you…you”ll follow BOTH of us on Twitter-NOW! Follow LowKey here and AndreasHale, here!
Ciara To The Stage
@LowKeyUHTN says: Is she a stripper? What stage are they calling her to..???
@Andreashale says: For the record…she can’t sing. Now we have that out of the way, let’s see. Intro is aiight…
@Andreashale says: Can’t front on Tricky Stewart. Dude has FIRE for those who are vocally challenged.
@LowKeyUHTN says: Prod by Don Vito and Tricky Stewart. Yep, she can’t sing…but that 16 she’s spittin at the end…owww lol
Love Sex Magic featuring Justin Timberlake
@LowKeyUHTN says: This visual is soft porn…..
@AndreasHale: We all know about this one. But if I got a lil girl that looks up to Ci, she’s NOT watching this video.
High Price featuring Ludacris
@AndreasHale says: Man this is “Oh” all over again. Tricky and The Dream go IN on this beat.
@LowKeyUHTN says: I remember when I got this song a year and a half ago. The only thing they changed was Dream’s ad-libs? LAZY TWITZ
@Andreashale says: She said “softer than a McDonald’s Hamburger Bun” really? Geezus…
@Andreashale says: Patiently waiting for Ludacris’ verse…I can see Ciara doing the perculator on top of a volkswagon..
@LowKeyUHTN says: This should’ve been a single….
Turntables featuring Chris Brown
@AndreasHale says: *insert Chris Brown joke here*
@LowKeyUHTN says: There’s WAY too much going on in this song. Ya’ll can def have this ish…
@AndreasHale says: I remember when they played this at BET and they were debating removing Chris Brown. Guess that didn’t happen…
Like A Surgeon
@AndreasHale says: Owwwwww…Tricky & The Dream win again. Ciara you nasty girl…her love is like anesthesia? Put me to sleep?
@LowKeyUHTN says: Head back, eyes closed…..YES CIARA….YESSSSSSSSSS
@AndreasHale says: This is a swanky jam right here…Ciara you are such a dirty dirty girl…
@LowKeyUHTN says: Wait a second- CIARA, I need to schedule a physical with you ASAP
Never Ever featuring Young Jeezy
@LowKeyUHTN says: Give it up CiCi….50 and Bow are over u…..
@Andreashale says: Dude…am I the only one who HATES this song? Like…HATE HATE HATE.
@LowKeyUHTN says: Fast forward to Jeezy’s part. I swear “State Troopers & Interstates” should be his next mixtape…..
@AndreasHale says: Did I already give the disclaimer that she is vocally inept? Oh I did? Well yeah…like nails on a chalkboard.
@LowKeyUHTN says: That break beat at the end gave me the sudden urge to reenact a scene from Stomp The Yard…
Lover’s Thing featuring The Dream
@LowKeyUHTN says: Nah….not feeeling this one.
@AndreasHale says: Back in the 70s (when you had to know how to sing) could you get two people that couldn’t sing on the same song?
@LowKeyUHTN says: This is jus a lazy attempt at saying “Hey, I’m in love with you”. C’mon guys. Oh god, she sounds like Cassie
@AndreasHale says: Hey buddy…I stopped listening to the lyrics when they started singing. *shrug*
Work featuring Missy
@AndreasHale says: Aw damn…this song is a lame attempt at some dance ish.
@LowKeyUHTN says: Another dance movie track. I see kids in a talent show doing the wu-tang to this……
@AndreasHale says: “Shake that thing like a donkey?” When has a donkey shook anything?
Pucker Up
@AndreasHale says: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…haven’t we done this before? Oh Darkchild on the beat? He failed.
@LowKeyUHTN says: “Pucker Up” What u want me to kiss…..CiCi
@AndreasHale says: She could benefit from Autotune
G Is For Girl (A-Z)
@AndreasHale says: Ummmmm…some alphabet shit. I’ll pass…
@LowKeyUHTN says: I like the verse structure on this song, but I don’t like it because she’s doing that singing thing again
@AndreasHale says: LMAO at “that signing thing.” I’d rather listen to her dance…
Keep Dancin On Me
@AndreasHale says: Somebody help me figure out what this SHOULD be about. If I danced on her, I’d stomp the mess outta her.
@LowKeyUHTN says: Not sure what to think about this one. The beat is pretty groovy. How bout we jus lift the vocals off the trax
Tell Me What Your Name Is
@LowKeyUHTN says: I’m not even going to lie, I listen to this at night thinking she’s talking to me…NOLIE.COM
@AndreasHale says: She said “keep dancing on me until my body is melted away.” These lyrics get more confusing by the minute
@AndreasHale says: Lifts Cyndi Lauper’s “Time After Time.” Don’t know how I feel about that.
@AndreasHale says: When you can’t sing, it doesn’t make your music completely abysmal. Some things work. Like this song
@LowkeyUHTN says: Produced By Benny Blanco & Dr. Luke….who the FUDGE are they?
I Don’t Remember
@LowKeyUHTN says: Ummmm, judging by the intro to this track, I believe someone (Bow Wow) slipped CiCi a rufee
@AndreasHale says: and when you can’t sing. Songs like this that focus on your vocals make me not want to remember either…
Overall Rating:
@LowKeyUHTN says: 2.7/5
@AndreasHale says: 2.5/5
Bought the album yesterday and it’s hot!
My fav songs are Love,Sex and Magic, Work, Pucker Up and Turntables.
I also like the song she did with the Dream.
Can’t wait to see her today on 106!!
She’s trying to pull off a Janet sound wrapped up as Beyonce.
If you’re a fan of R&B this is not the album for you.
I wish bet was this honest about that Beyonce cd. I brought that cd and it’s garbage already. Do us favor, be fair about every artist, because yah are know to be partial to those with “star” power!
u da besst so kkeep doin wat u been doin
This is not about rihanna, but did anyone check out the pictures of mrs michelle obama on the web on sesame street. she has elmo and a basket of lettuce that talks. All the other first ladies have had Big Bird.
okay they started out saying that they are big fans of ciara and how they like her as an artist.but that was just to justify how awful they were in saying nasty things about her i mean something must be working with ciara seeing as though shes successful…we should support her! shes an entertainer!! could you two get on stage and sell out crowds (NO!) but she can and you idiots contradict yourselves you can’t be a fan of someone that you constantly say horrible things about…sure there are people who have stronger singing voices but the fact of the matter is shes awesome and she commands attention on stage she makes you dance …. i mean i love micheal jackson but ol boi ‘ never had a strong singing voice but he was a great entertainer and that alone made him the best entertainer(not per say singer) of all time….. she has a great album and as jayz puts it “men lie women lie numbers don’t”
man dis is y artists dont like the media and the blog sites because of crap like this..get a real job and stop hatin haters
say hello to me on b.e.t yeah my name is shae and i am 13 in jacksonville n.c.
Ciara was looking super cool today on bet!
She’s super fly!
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO jokes
Its true..she can’t sing
But u hafta admit da girl can DANCE….mayb she shud bcum a backup-dancer 4 some one who can actually sing
Sorry…but Ciara CAN NOT SING! She should just perform as a dancer because her voice really really annoys me to death. I was just on ABC News online and I watched a taping of her performance of “Never Love You” or whatever, and it was so embarrassing! At least she could have put her all into the dancing part. She didnt even do that! This is crazy! Man…I wish I had the opportunities that she has been given. I would go all out…dance hard…sing harder…I am so dissapoited when artists take their record deal for granted. Somebody just give me a chance!
I must admit in my opinion… key word opinion… Cici can dance better than the average person. But her vocals are not the best. I feel like her first single.. with Jeezy was a rushed effort to keep her in the limelight… but all that dissecting songs instead of being original is getting old. I mean at least in the 90’s when Puff and Missy them did it… it was a solid hit… now days its an absolute miss. HIP HOP……………..PLEASE COME BACK….. I am finding myself listening to old songs because new music is lacking substance….
I just think those two people are hating on CIARA. Where the hell was they opinions when beyonce album came out. She can’t sing or dance,but what’s the difference, OH yea Jay-z that the difference. CIARA do your thing and BET should have this blog removed because they wouldn’t let no negative commons diplay on here if it was about beyonce.
STOP HATING!!!!!!
a this is funny as hell. you guys should always review albums like this………………………rOc bOy.
