Rap-Up.com || Video: Ciara on ‘Kimmel’ + Jordin Sparks on ‘AI’

We have to hand it to Ciara’s promo team. She has been everywhere over the last couple weeks [insert cruel sales joke here]. The only artist who out-promoted her was Beyoncé. Her TV appearances wound down with a stop on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on Wednesday where she performed “Love Sex Magic” and “Never Ever,” below.

Jordin Sparks debuts her new single on “American Idol” after the jump.

Ciara is a hard worker. Always has been. When GOodies came out she performed everywhere too.

Ciara always brings her “A” game when it comes to performing, so I am rarely not entertained when Ciara hits the stage – but I am glad to see that she is stepping up her vocals to match her dance skills.

But I would really like to tip my hat off to Jordin Sparks. I actually enjoy the song, and I think that it will definitely catch on. But Ms. Jordin owned this performance, and owned the stage. She didn’t have to do 30 8-counts to work the stage, and her vocals, as always, were on point spinning. Do ya thug thizzle Jordin, I am definitely on Team Jordin!

Jordin did incredible, she already has such great stage presence and how old is she, like 19?

The problem with the promotion for “Fantasy Ride” is that Ciara has been performing the same two songs over and over again. Give the viewers something different so your album seems more appealing. The performances of LSM and “Never Ever” didn’t seem to help album sales the week of the release so why is now any different?
