After Ciara’s disappointment with Fantasy Ride, which consisted of a bunch of singles that wouldn’t stick, as well as a series of pushbacks, it seemed as though Ciara was in hot water with no boat. Consumers (and some fans) began to wonder whether Ciara had what it takes to stay relevant. It seemed as though she was more concerned with her celebrity, rather than her career as a singer and performer. She moved out to Los Angeles and started hanging out with the Kardashians — and although it made for a lot of photo ops, people were wondering when they would hear any new material.
Basic Instinct is supposed to find Ciara returning back to her roots. She announced that she was tapping the team at RedZone, consisting of the dynamic duo of The Dream and Tricky Stewart, to produce and co-write the bulk of the album, as they have done in the past with Mariah Carey and Electrik Red. Fans seemed pleased when Ciara offered up the first single, “Ride,” and the visual provided by Diane Martel of Ciara returning to what people arguably love most about her: dancing. However, with a lack of chart performance and promotion, people were wondering if Basic Instinct would see the same fate as the underperformed Fantasy Ride. {SOURCE:CONCRETE LOOP}
