Beginnings as a Songwriter - The pop star started her career as a behind-the-scenes songwriter. She penned her first major hit, "Got Me Waiting," for Fantasia Barrino's debut album, Free Yourself, which caught music executives' attention. They began to take note of her songwriting skills and potential as an artist. (Photo: Frank Micelotta/Getty Images)
Goodies - In 2004, Ciara released her debut album Goodies. It was sweet, sexy and the perfect combo of R&B and pop music. What made CiCi's debut extra special is the fact that she came out of the gates dancing. Her dancing skills were only rivaled by the choreography of her pop princess counterparts, but based on her "matrix" alone, she'd win any dance battle on any given day.   (Photo: Brad Barket/Getty Images)Lil Jon and Ciara - Atlanta's hottest producer and the R&B songstress rock viewers' senses with their gender-bending performance of Ciara's "Like A Boy."
