New Music: Ciara f/ The-Dream – ‘Speechless’

Ciara and The-Dream

Before Ciara rides out with Ludacris, she duets with The-Dream on “Speechless,” a mid-tempo jam from her fourth album. Producer Tricky Stewart first told Rap-Up.com about the track in September, calling it one of his favorites.

Super C is shooting a video for her first single “Ride” in Los Angeles today with Luda and director Diane Martel, who helmed the “Love Sex Magic” clip.

    [Reply]

  13. Oh snap

  26. tdkk

    YESSSSSSSSSSSSS! If this is going to be apart of Ciara’s new sound then she will be on point this album! Ya’ll need to stop tripping because this song right here can turn alot of people back into fans her vocal game has stepped up! It’s fine if a song or two leak just as long as a entire album doesn’t im cool atleast keep 5 or 6 songs a complete mystery until release

  27. Rap*

    hoTTTTT

    I wish, it was some other male singers and not dream on it.

    [Reply]

  28. MR.ENT

    Alrite….Ciara is back, i aint sayin this is a #1 single, but its is mos def a great album track. This is Ciara’s lane, and she just needs to ride out in it.

    R&B banger for sure.

    [Reply]

  29. RadioKilla

    it’s all over the net already. why should rap up not post ciara’s music, but u guys will happily download everyone else’s?

    i’m sure all of you downloaded it anyway

    [Reply]

  30. Perio

    NOW THIS THE CIARA I MISSED!!! REMINDS ME OF A GOODIE OR EVEN EVOLUTION TRACK KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK CI YOUR COMEBACK IS HIGHLY ANTICAPTED!

    [Reply]

  31. Straight Heat

    This song is fireeeeeeeeeee. Its a shame it had to leak cause this song is really really good. The Dream and Tricky went innnnnn. It sounds like something christina millian might have put on her Elope album. This song could have been a single. I bet Ride is 10 times better than this though.

    [Reply]

  32. tdkk

    im up in the bank wasn’t no damn buzz single or a single of any kind….honestly i think ciara leaked it on purpose just to give people something to talk about! It’s already been stated that song was just her and dream messing around

    [Reply]

  33. imhailing

    Idt this will b on the album
    Omg ciara is the shit,her voooice!!!
    She’s shooting her first single today
    n she look stoopid hot n sexy

    [Reply]

  34. Jes

    YES!!!! This is what I’m talking about.

    [Reply]

  35. Uh Oh

    This is the duet with Dream that was supposed to be kept under wraps. Oh no this cant be good.

    [Reply]

  36. Kasey

    how do you pundits not know ciara’s camp purposely leaked this? GROUPTHINK

    [Reply]

  37. BOI-1da

    Definitely not Ciara’s usual crap. This song seems very well put together. Glad she’s working with someone else, and it shows.

    Tha BOI-1da said he likes it!

    SLAY CIARA….. THIS IS THE SHIT……. SHE IS BACK

    [Reply]

  41. IDK

    Damn Diane Martel is directing the video. I dont really like her videos. I think Ci should have worked with Benny Boom the person who got her career started with Goodies and 1,2 Step videos. All Diane Martels videos look the same. Im guessing the Ride video will be shot in black and white.

    [Reply]

  42. heezyoh

    glad for new music from cici ready for the new album!Summer is looking good!

    [Reply]

  50. Dat_Boi_Get_Em

    I havent heard ride the full song, Ive only saw the behind the scenes of the video. I really hope it hasnt leaked..

    [Reply]

  51. Jes

    Just saw the behind the scene’s snippet of Ride. I think its safe to say that Ciara is coming back swinging. Ride and Speechless sound really good. Can’t wait for the video!

    [Reply]

  52. Speechles should have been the 1st sings

    Ciara should have released speechless as the first single. Ride It isnt even a high tempo song. Ciara is riding on a thin rope cause this single could make or break her career.

    [Reply]

  53. g3

    it hasnt leaked ppl only speechless relax.

    [Reply]

  66. Bey/Ci/Ri True Fan

    Speechless is hot for it not to be a uptempo dance song it might actually fare well on the radio. Ride is a hot song as well if people are liking these songs on first and second listens then that’s a major improvement from her last album! If this album do well it’s not because of her it would be because of music fans…it’s cool if u download or listen to it now just make sure you get the album otherwise your no better than any other common thief

  70. Bey/Ci/Ri True Fan

    I hope for the best for her! Speechless is amazing her vocals on it are kinda shocking she actually impressed me vocally first song she real ever open her mouth and didn’t hold back much. Beautiful voice I like part of dreams parts but he kinda took away from the song

    I love the laid back Ciara R&B joints like this. But regarding the leak, I really hope this is IT. All the leaks from “Fantasy Ride” are what I think led to its failure on the charts, I really do. Can’t wait to hear the new track with Ludacris! C’mon CICI!!!

  93. Music

    this song could do without dream, i think.

    [Reply]

  94. elchica

    @Music, I agree dream is cool but he didn’t add anything to the song actually kinda took away from it! I kinda like the part where they are singing I’m speechless together they mix well but main reason I like it is because Ciara hit this cute lil note when she sings “you got meEEE!! speechless”.

    [Reply]

    Im hearing that ciaras new album is gonna be called C-Era which would kind of be a good idea. i guess turning c-error into C-era can be risky because her last album flopped and shes gonna have to prove her position with this new project. We shall see.
