January 4, 2009 Hate It or Love it: Ciara – Never Ever

ciara_promo_2008_010409_1

Check out Ciara’s official first single “Never Ever” featuring rapper Young Jeezy off her upcoming (delayed) Fantasy Ride album. Is this what the doctor ordered to make her already pushed back album the success Ciara desperately needs, hate it or love it? As much as I want Ciara to win with this album, I honestly don’t think this “Never Ever” is going to do the trick for her.

And in case you missed it, here’s Ciara’s cover of Beyonce’s “Diva” track.

  • hm, neither hate nor love….just a long, pondering hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

  • Okay, now this is more like it Ciara….I’m feeling this one, not her best, but it’s sure as hell is better than that damn Diva swagger jack she pulled on us

  • YUCK YUCK YUCK

  • I’m feeling this one!
    Catchy and smooth
    Perfect end of winter/spring track!

  • I LOVE IT I AM THE BIGGEST CIARA FAN EVER!! YEA IT SOUNDS LIKE THE FEMALE REPLY TO LOVE IN THIS CLUB BC POLOW DID BOTH RECORDS HOW EVER ITS DIFFRNT AND OUT OF HER RANGE THATS ONE OF THE REASONS I LOVE HER SHE NOT LIKE OTHER FEMALE ARTIST SHE TRYS ALL TYPES OF MUSIC I LOVE THE RECORD IM DEF.PUTTIN IT ON MY MYSPACE PAGE AND GETTIN THE ALBUM&MIXTAPE SHE GOT COMING OUT!!

  • I love Ciara… Never Ever. Is to the heart..direct and unfiltered. I could do without Young Jeezy. “I moan…ya bling bling” in the middle of a good song. LOL

    Now that “Diva” cover… She need to stop. I am not a huge Beyonce fan but that’s Beyonce’s song.

  • IDK, im mixed on this 1, this is NOT worth the wait 4 an album release, its cute-smooth, BUT IDK! she needs a klub banger 4real!!!

  • it’s cute. i like the breakdown part. i can see me crankin dat in my car…but the track is cute*

  • eh…its OK. i really want people to stop thinking that if they put wayne or jeezy on a track that’ll make it hot.

  • i like it but at the same time , i dont think its gonna do anything for here .

    sorry ci ci .

  • WELL IT’S DEFETNETLY BETTER THEN THAT DIVA THANG SHE DID! I’M KINDA FEELIN THIS! GO CICI!

  • i love love love cici but you are right…i’m surprised go girl didn’t take off but she should release work or click flash,

  • Whack City sorry Cici!!!

  • I see she sampled Simply Red’s “If You Don’t Know Me By Now”.

    Too bad this is horrible.

  • Its cool. I dont really know if its a single though because all of these leaked songs have been from her mixtape. Thats why she did the Diva cover. But this a cool joint.

  • i like it. hope it does well on the charts, though.

  • BLAH, BLAH AND MORE BLAH!!!

    But at least it’s better then her weak as attempt of covering “Diva”, she needs to take it back to her “Goodies” days if she wants to be successful.

  • omg for once could this not go from liking or disliking a damn song into a damn ciara swagger jacking beyonce this or a beyonce copying ciara that? for god sake ciara,(like many other rappers, artist, musician…..etc) liked the song and put her own twist on it. she was showing flattery people. quit comparing and contrasting these two divas and like them for who they are.(talented black women.) btw the song is very good. i love it

  • “eh…its OK. i really want people to stop thinking that if they put wayne or jeezy on a track that’ll make it hot.”

    The tracks aren’t bad, but they aren’t good.

  • its iight…catchy but we can’t give her all ths credit being that some of tha coras wasnt originally hers

  • What the “Hello Kitty”…? Ok, from the Neck down is ok…

    But honey, if we walked around with them heavy earrings, we would all have rip ear lobes.

  • This is one luv muffin who does not want to get into this crap… Ciara instead of remixing someone else’s song need to make sure that hers were better… this song is HOT GAHBAGE… lol

  • hmmmmmmm Im not getting his one…

    cuz Ciaras on her grind and
    YOURLL WILL NEVER EVER NEVER EVER STOP HER !!
    Ps Can U SAY C-Year!!
    muhaha :P
    GO CC go CC go

  • not a bad song…but not first single material…FAIL again. next time Super C!

  • I JUST MADE A VIDEO FOR BRITNEY’S 10 SUCCESSFUL YEARS CAREER… I THINK I DID A GOOD JOB, THE VIDEO IS SO POWERFULLL http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3PSodmY9mxo

  • this is kind of sad, ciara has dropped half her album and the response has been less then luke warm. i guess most people are still waiting for more of the 123 step music, but obviously ciara is not going back in that direction. it is kind of sad tho because she is losing some fans. don’t get me wrong she has a strong fan base who will support her thu anything. it has gotten so that all i look forward to, when i her a ciara song, is just waiting to see the video for her dancing skills.

  • love it. so addicting and great message

  • I like it, its catchy talking about a relationship. Not all songs have to be so dramatic, its just a nice song.

  • I love it!!!! Skip what you all think and Fantasy Ride will sell!

  • its wack n her voice is so fuckin squeaky in this song!!! uugghh! she needs serious vocal training to jump on a beyonce track because beyonce will kill her in the vocal department!! n besides…keri hilson n Rihanna kicked her out the game a long time ago…HA!

  • Its a cool song that im playing but, will get old fast. Does not move me enuff to buy the album. She makes good albums so just her past works makes me give her a past to buy this one. Go girl should have been a second single not the first, and this one is not a good song to be a single. Maybe a good video of this song would change my feeling of the song. But sometimes a video kills the song.

    Now this song makes me want to buy her album. It’s so sexy!

    Im not sure if you posted the song here before B.scott and not sure if you heared it but its so hot! What do you think about the song?

    “See just when you think
    its over
    i’m giving you
    more, more
    Don’t be afraid
    to scream my name,
    Call me”

  • it harold melvin and the blue notes sample..and as much as people hate it, i love it..its cute and smooth..simple and people can relate to it..no one believes in a message these days….i really think this will send her to where she needs to be..mark my words…

    I love this song… whats wrong with yall people.. lol… I like it because she stepped out of her boundaries.. Its a radio friendly track with a bangin chorus… Ciara u won yourself a fan… Go Girl… lol…

  • Two words. One starts with “H” and the other “M”. Ding ding ding. You win the prize! Vanna turn the rest of the letters for the slow children. H O T M E S S! What was that? Somebody should have put Jeezy in a box cause the song was bad enough without him but with him it went from bad to worsetest. And yes I know worsetest is not a word.

    Ciara is a very very good singer. If you have ever got the chance to hear her live you will know that she has a strong voice with a sweet edge kind of like Aaliyah in some ways. But you would hardly know it if you judge her by the songs that get released.

    Sorry but no cake for you this time Miss C. And if the rest of the album is this bad, they may want to delay it yet again and schedule some more studio time.

    Note the picture above: Is it just me or are they trying to make everyone look like Rhiana?

  • @mzshannon I can see that you’re young or you don’t know music,but simply red did not do the original. the original was done by Harold Melvin & the blue notes of which Teddy P was the lead singer a black group. White folks always copy black artist music and get more credit for it
    check it out and learn http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJcmbE84_RA The British invasion was not more than white British artist doing over black America songs and send it back to America because white America would not play their music.
    the Rolling stones was a major one. see the movie Cadillac records.

  • Simply red did not do the Original Harold Melvin & the blue Notes did it. . The=is is what happen when the media is control by white folks White singer redo black ppl songs and get all the credit while the black singers who did the original don’t get mention. Elvis hound dog 1sr=t done by big mama thorton. Micheal Bolton when a man loves a woman 1st done by Percy sledge. I could go on . here is ciara sample original http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJcmbE84_RA ciara butcher the sample.

  • This is a beautiful song, you know what Ciara might not care about being so huge and famous like other singers. I mean I believe Ciara makes music that she enjoy and love and she dont care if alot of people like it or not, as long as her fans like it. she makes music from her heart.

  • love it all da wayy its a good single…

  • Ciara needs to get her own and stay off of other girls tracks, Janet’s Feedback, now this. How tired is that, besides that fact that she sounds vocally challenge compared to Sasha Fierce!

  • CICI IS DA SHIT NUNSTOP U DO YO THANG CICI

  • ciar yo i loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee yourrr never ever video please that was awesome

  • go cii ciii.
    FUCK HATERS JELOUS BITCHES
