Kelis is back in the studio working on her new album. She wants to drop it at the end of this year or early next year.

Hopefully she doesn't change her style up too much and just picks better singles because "Kelis Was Here" is a great album.

KWH should have been promoted better. "Blindfold Me" was good as a single but they didnt promote it. "Trilogy"would have been good.

She should do a whole album of future-funk/soul type stuff (like "Junkie," "Glow," "80s Joint,"etc)... The song "80s Joint" from the Step Up soundtrack was incredible I don't get why she left it off KWH...
Producers/songwriters she should work with:
Polow da Don Raphael Saadiq Sa-Ra Bangladesh Rich Harrison Mark Ronson
I'm really looking forward to this, KWH was great and deserved to be bigger than it was...

"Wanderland"should have been released in the US. UFO Man was good.

It was always her time. She has "missing" hits in her chart history, as I like to call them. Let's hope her label FINALLY gets their shit together to release the right singles and promote them properly.

Just like Case, it seems Kelis' career is stuck with having one hit single off each album.

She needs to work with the neptunes on this album. I'd like to see them working together, and "Hell Hath No Fury" was tight, but on the "pop" side they're not as strong as in recent years.

She performed yesterday. Any news on the album? Kelis to play O2 festivalKelis and Air have joined the bill for this year's O2 Wireless Festival. Plan B, New Young Pony Club, Calvin Harris, Simian Mobile Disco and Digitalism will also play sets at the four-day gig, which will be held at London's Hyde Park in June. They will join huge acts like White Stripes, Kaiser Chiefs, Faithless and Badly Drawn Boy at the popular festival. Now in its third year, the festival is also held in Leeds. As well as music on four stages, organisers lay on fair rides, chill out areas, street theatre, performance art, markets, massage areas and a football pitch. "The O2 Wireless Festival goes from strength to strength and this year's line-up further cements its reputation as one of the UK's top music events," said Sally Cowdry, marketing director of O2 UK. "We're proud to have been involved since the start and seen it flourish over the past three years."

Its a LONG story. Short version: She didn't like the way they ran the label and blamed them for her not succeeding. Even though they gave her her 1st Top 3 single with Milkshake and her first GOLD album in the US.

Trick Me was released in the US and went nowhere but was a success WW along with Millionaire which both got videos. She had the decision of staying on the Star Trak label when Arista folded into Jive. She spoke her piece and said hell no basically.
