Fantasy just a name

Ciara became a hit with her songs "1, 2 step" and "Goodies" then came Rihanna who took her place with up beat club songs.
"Fantasy Ride," which follows two very successful albums, "Goodies" in 2004 and "The Evolution" in 2006, with the hit "Get Up," is short on magic as the title suggests.
The CD contains club jams and smooth ballads, and starts off with "Ciara to the Stage" a pleasant slow jam, that makes her voice sound smooth.
Then it gets better, track two is the big hit "Love Sex Magic" featuring Justin Timberlake, which is an up-beat easy sing along song because it's catchy and is worthy of spinning at a night club.
The only thing that's not right about this song is it's similar sound to Justin's "Futuresex/Lovesound" track, never the less it works for her.
Ciara's new album unfortunately sounds just like her last one. Plus her song with Missy Elliot is the same as Missy's song "lose control."
There are great guest artists and producers like Justin Timberlake, Ludacris, Chris Brown, Young Jeezy, The Dream and Missy Elliott, but even with the guest appearances it's not that original.
It's not that the CD is bad it just sounds like what we've heard before, like her second CD. Rihanna, unlike Ciara, every time she releases a new CD she surpass her last.
