Ciara delay “Fantasy Ride” until 2009

R&B star Ciara’s “Fantasy Ride” album has reportedly been pushed back until Spring 2009 due to the lack of buzz from her single “Go Girl”. The song peaked at #78 on the Billboard Charts.

Ciara’s label said “It’s a nice setup single because the video introduces Ciara’s new look and her new body, but it’s not the opener.”

Her label added, “Ciara opened very wide with her first album, which gave her a broad audience and crossover appeal. Her second album was a little more urban. With Fantasy Ride, they’re trying to strike a balance [between pop and urban] while looking for the right single.””

“Fantasy Ride” was originally set to release in December.
