Ciara Oh Featuring Ludacris for Throwback Thursday

It’s hard to believe that Ciara came into the game in the early 2000s. Ciara celebrated the 20^th anniversary for the release of her Goodies album. Ciara was named the Princess of Crunk&B during this time. Goodies was the name of her first single and it featured Petey Pablo. The track was a huge hit, and it went on to move over three million units. In 2005, “Goodies” was nominated for “Best R&B/Soul or Rap Song of the Year” at Soul Train Lady of Soul Music Awards and in 2006. It won the Best Performed Songs in the ASCAP Repertory for the 2005 Survey Year at the ASCAP Pop Music Awards. 1,2 Step was the second single off the Goodies album. 1,2 Step was another banger from Ciara as this was one of those tracks that was played in a lot of parties.

The single moved over five million units, and it was nominated for a Grammy Award in 2006. The third single from the Goodies album was Oh and it’s my featured Throwback Thursday track. Oh featured Ludacris and despite it not selling like the previous singles it was a great track. The song was well received by music critics, who praised the song’s beat, specifically noting its radio-friendliness. It won an award at the 2006 ASCAP award shows for “Most Performed Songs” with the two previous singles from Goodies, “Goodies” and “1, 2 Step”. The song also took home the award for “Choice Music Make-Out Song” at the 2005 Teen Choice Awards and for “Coolest Collabo” at the 2006 Vibe Awards. The song was listed at number 127 on Pitchfork Media’s top 500 songs of the 2000s.

The song was placed at number 72 on Slant’s The 100 Best Singles of the Aughts. It, along with other songs on Goodies, helped earn Ciara the nomination for Best New Artist at the 48th Grammy Awards. The Goodies joint was a great album that sold over four million copies. Check out the video for the featured track called Oh.
