PlayboyMommy Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 Ciara's debut single "Goodies" made her a superstar, but it almost didn't happen. Cici revealed the track nearly went to Britney Spears. “When I had this record, I knew that it was a very, very special record,” Ciara said of the Lil Jon-produced track. “And I worked so hard on this record and this industry can sometimes bring you incredible challenges, hence why I love the power of having my own record label.” When she switched labels, Ciara cooked up "Goodies." “And when we went to Jive, I had the song ‘Goodies.’ I had to reaudition again, to be picked up and to be made a priority on the label. I did that, had a showcase, rocked it. Okay, boom, check.” She found out later it nearly went to Britney. “Had this record, but not knowing that behind the scenes, there was a conversation about this song being potentially taken from me and given to an artist like Britney Spears, who was on the same roster as me,” she said. “I learned about the story later, but the crazy thing for me is that if I would’ve known about it then, I would have fought tooth and nail. It was because it’s a record that I actually was a part of creating. I was heavily involved in the writing side of it as well.” “Goodies” topped the Billboard Hot 100 and remained there for seven weeks. “It was just kind of surreal to see that my dream was coming true,” Ciara added. Can you imagine Britney singing "Goodies?!" 1
Popular Post toxiccriminal Posted August 28, 2020 Popular Post Posted August 28, 2020 It's weird because Britney could have delivered that kind of dancing, singing style, sass, etc. at the time...but I still can't imagine Britney on the track. Then again Queen is flawless and can do anything so who knows 17 4

Hm you're right. Not the same dance style, for sure...I guess I was thinking more about the energy level! 2
ColdAsFire89 Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 I used to love this song and wished back then it was Britney’s song 3 1
YoungOne Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 well labels can be really ****ty just like Jlo’s label who stole for her benefit from other artists. So it’s a good review on jive for letting Ciara keep her song at the end, those conversations are always going on in the industry so. Good for her. 1 3
rennen Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 This thread has reminded me how much I hate that song. 😂 I'm glad it wasn't given to Britney. 1 1 4
PokemonSpears Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 it wouldn't have sounded good for Britney imo 5
Popular Post Kiey Posted August 28, 2020 Popular Post Posted August 28, 2020 Nah this song sounds like a bonus ttack compared to Britneys discography 4 2 16
The Exhale Psychic Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 mmmm. so would this have been during in the zone era?. well it dose not sound like a sing from ITZ, its more Blackout 1
Soysaucechicken08 Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 I could see Britney doing this but idk it’d sound good on her..she would of killed any choreography made for this track. Or video if it got made Bc In another life time lol in 2004 Britney was that girl very urban n had swag.and only Janet could rival her dancing. 3
bliss Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 hmm I can see Britney singing it but I'm glad Ciara kept it cause it would sound weird on In The Zone + it probably would've never been released as a single for Britney 1 1

sanpedro Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 Everyone on twitter is saying they would’ve liked this👀 2
sanpedro Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 hmmm I wonder why he/she/it hates to admit it👀 Also NOT ciara saying she would’ve put up a fight if Britney wanted that song. Baby girl you’re a D-List you would’ve lost that fight before it even started💀 Nice that it went to ciara tho, she needed it. 6
Popular Post PZHSB Posted August 28, 2020 Popular Post Posted August 28, 2020 Godney Spears threw her a bone and allowed Ciara to have her one and only hit song. We stan a charity queen. 6 9 2
