Ciara shot to stardom by signing up to the producer Lil Jon's Crunk & B movement in 2004. The Atlanta-based singer's debut album that same year paired her candied voice with beats that served the club scene, along with bubbly cameos from the rappers Ludacris, Missy Elliott, and Petey Pablo. Further success came when 2006's Ciara: The Evolution hit platinum heights, while a self-titled project in 2013 proved her longevity as she teamed with Mike Will Made-It to sweet and addictive effect.
