CD Description
After the breakup of the phenomenally successful Destiny's Child, Kelly Rowland kept a relatively low profile, at leastcompared to group-mate Beyonce, whose celebrity status as asolo artist cast a big shadow. Rowland cast some shadows ofher own, however, with 2007's MS. KELLY, a wholly satisfying showcase for the singer's particular take on contemporary R&B. Cameos from Eve, Snoop Dogg, and Tank keep the energy high, but MS. KELLY is Rowland's show through and through. With equal attention to both thumping club tracks (the album'slead-off single "Like This") and smooth, downtempo balladry("The Show"), this solo effort pushes Rowland into some well-deserved limelight.

Customer Reviews

A Great Debut
When i first heard that Kelly Rowland was going to do a solo album i was immediatly intrigued because she did so well in destinys child. When i bought this at first when listening to it it was a definitly much different then i thought it would be and i completly dismissed it. However when i kept listening to it i found one of the best albums i have heard in a long time. Its Had quite a lot of bad reviews for some strange reason. I personally recomend it! its well hot! here are what i think are the songs that no person should ever skip! -

. Like This
. Comeback
. Work
. Gotsta Go

These songs are the perfect upbeat rnb songs which you just want to get up and dance to. i love them.
However there are also other songs which i do personally recommend becuase i believe they do show the deptht that Kelly can go to. -

. Ghetto
. Flashback - (One Of My Favourites)
. Every Thought Is You
. Still In Love With My Ex
. Love

In conclusion, buy this album. you wont be dissapointed!

Great return (finally) for Ms. Kelly
I was a massive fan of Kelly's first album "Simply Deep" which had a real acoustic R&B feel to it. I got this album yesterday and she has not disappointed me despite switching up her sound and giving more of a contemporary R&B/Hip Hop feel this time around.

Polow Da Don & Sean Garrett collaborate on the first single "Like This" which is an addictive joint and Scott Storch's productions "Comeback" and "Work" are also energetic and catchy openers. Soulshock & Karlin's "Still In Love With My Ex" and Rockwilder/Loren Dawson's "Every Thought Is Of You" again finds the Hip Hop-influenced producers moving away from the traditional soppy ballad and providing a heavier, more captivating beat. Sadly, Billy Mann's outro "This Is Love" and Mysto & Pizzi's "Love" are rather bland ballads in contrast and considering her fantastic writing on "Simply Deep"'s title track and "Obsession", Solange Knowles disappoints with her writing on "Love".

The CKB (Charlie & Kenny Bereal - Mya's "My Love Is Like...Wo") and Tank (yes, the singer of the massive single "Please Don't Go") tracks are the highlights of the album. CKB's "Better Without You" is an uplifting, gently riding ballad and they really switch it up with the tracks "Flashback" and "Gotsta Go" which are awesome upbeat numbers of which Kelly intended with the album. Tank's "Ghetto" is a nice mid-tempo track with a rap from Snoop Dogg which has a real old school sound and finds Kelly using more breathy as opposed to powerhouse vocals. His second production, which also finds the singer/producer duetting with Kelly, is a gorgeous dramatic retro ballad "The Show" and makes you wonder how much better the album might have been if Tank produced the whole lot!

All in all this is a great return for Ms. Kelly and the writing and/or vocal production by J. "Lonny" Bereal on every track really gives it a tight feel and a nice flow which a lot of albums lack. My only qualms would be the tracks "Love" & "This Is Love", which are much too formulaic as ballads but these don't damage what is mostly a consistent and thoroughly enjoyable album.

Awesome
This is an amazing R&B album period!! Its an injustice that Ms Kelly has not received the exposure it deserves. This is one of the best workS I've heard this year and in a long time...its got the perfect balance of sassy, serious and just plain fun. Definately one for my collection. Every R&B fan should have this in their collection!

Loved it, loved it. still loving it!!!
