Ciara Gets Into The Groove On ‘106 & Park’

Wed Dec 15 2010 by Robbie Daw
Ciara occasionally paused during her interview on 106 & Park yesterday to get her groove on and bust a few moves—like when she mentioned her collaboration with Usher on just-released album Basic Instinct, and the audience started chanting, "CiCi! CiCi! CiCi!" The flexible diva also explained, "On Basic Instinct, this album, I really wanted my fans to have an intimate experience with me. I wanted for my fans to hear my voice." And that's just what they got an earful of when Ciara did an impromptu freestyle of title track "Basic Instinct (U Got Me)". Watch below! More »

Timbaland Releases New Missy Elliott Track “Swat Dat Fly”

Fri Nov 19 2010 by Becky Bain
Responding to fans who want to know why he didn't release a track with longtime collaborator Missy Elliott on his Shock Value II project, Timbaland (via an uploaded vlog) explains that the album was "a rush project... it wasn't time yet and I didn't really get the match-up. Had too much pop... I wanted to even it out with pop and urban... Maybe that's why I didn't put Missy on it, 'cause it was mostly a pop album." The rapper-producer then opened up his vault to play an old tune of Missy's that he produced back in the day, "Swat Dat Fly." Listen below. More »

Ciara’s ‘Basic Instinct’ Tracklist Revealed

Mon Nov 15 2010 by Robbie Daw
Hat-donning R&B diva Ciara's Basic Instinct album will finally arrive on December 14 (it has the misfortune of going up against Michael Jackson's Michael). Rap-Up.com has posted the 11-song LP's tracklist, and it seems some of CiCi's songs that surfaced over the past year didn't make the cut (sorry, fans of "Blauw," "Shut 'Em Up" and "Get It Girl"). Peek at what is on Basic Instinct after the jump. More »

Kid Cudi Was Sort Of On ‘106 & Park’

Wed Nov 10 2010 by Robbie Daw
Style maverick Kid Cudi's just-released album Man On The Moon II: The Legend Of Mr. Rager is nicely perched at the top of the iTunes download chart, so maybe he decided to take a vacation day yesterday—despite the fact that he had a scheduled appearance on BET's 106 & Park. For the first couple minutes, hosts Ciara and Terrence J's questions were met with a short, disinterested answers from a slightly "out of it" Cudder. He eventually pulled it together, but we're wondering if his mind was on the moon? Watch below. More »

Ciara And Usher “Turn It Up” On New ‘Basic Instinct’ Track

Thu Oct 21 2010 by Becky Bain
Ciara and Usher combined their R&B/dance/pop powers to record — what else? — a glossy dance track. Quelle surprise! We're actually used to hearing heavier bass tracks from the hyper-diligent fashionista, but this possibly unfinished track indicates that she'll provide some lighter moments on her  oft-delayed Basic Instinct. (Now set to drop December 14... if we're lucky.) Listen to "Turn It Up (Pucker Up)" below. More »
