rather in building her brand as an artist. According to the "LA Times" Gerrick Kennedy, the lack of commercial success with "Basic Instinct" was attributable to multiple pushbacks, and the leaking of material from the album's recording sessions. In February 2011, Ciara revealed that her relationship with her record label was not on positive terms; Jive had not properly financial supported "Fantasy Ride" or "Basic Instinct". Ciara self-funded some of the albums promotions, including her last single "Gimmie Dat"
