Ciara's "Love Sex Magic"

We've all heard it. Justin Timber--er, I mean Ciara's "Love Sex Magic," a sequel of sorts to JT's "SexyBack." (But in the musical vein of "Sexy Ladies.") The song is just above mediocre, not to say I haven't been obsesses with it for a month, but the video is truly stellar. It's a Gaga-Beyonce hybrid, but damn...Ciara is literally sizzling in it.

Ciara's "Go Girl"

In the case of Ciara's horrid new single, "Go Girl"--which, unfortunately for her, hasn't gained enough momentum for any airplay in the new era of Rihanna (and to a lesser extent, Beyonce)--music video and song are mutually exclusive in quality. "Go Girl" is boring a derivative, hardly a worthy follow-up to "Like A Boy," but the video is high impact, heavily stylized, and hard-edged. It's essentially everything Ciara is not, which works visually. But that's as far the compliments go.
