Future Addresses His Failed Relationship with Ciara, Says He Wasn’t Feeling Her ‘Big Wedding’ Dreams + Ciara Responds [Video]

Future and Ciara had what we thought was a good thing going. They were in love, they were engaged, they had a moderate hit song together (“Body Party”) and they had a baby on the way…and then one day it was all over.

While Ciara’s subtly addressed their breakup (see “I Bet”), for the first time Future opens up about what went wrong in a new interview, Like I Never Left.

He started with “Body Party,” telling the story of how he urged Ciara to ride that wave instead of abandoning the ‘urban’ format for pop music.

“She was pregnant and she started working on her next album. Me and Mike Will finished the album before the album she just dropped [referring to ‘Ciara].

She didn’t want us to be a part of it at firsLike damn, we just came off a No. 1, and you go straight to Dr. Luke and start working with him? You go right back to the pop lane after we get a little steam?

We shouldn’t do that. We should’ve just finished what we started. You know what I’m sayin’? Go back into that ‘Body Party’ lane and give the fans what they want. That’s what they want from you. Like, let’s give them that and let it cross over to pop — instead of trying to chase that crowd.

But she was like ‘nah, I wanna record it this way.’ So me and Mike Will didn’t even get a chance to work on that album.”

He went on to discuss how he felt Ciara kept trying to rush their marriage and have a big wedding on E! News that he wasn’t really down with.
