    this album sounds like fireeee right now, hope she gets the sells tho

  4. BDABOSS July 6, 2011

    Lay It On Me is definitely different than the version that has been floating around on the internet.

  5. movieman July 6, 2011

    a hot keri mess , poor kelly fans better stay waiting for the dc3 reunion

  6. TeamKelly!!! July 6, 2011

    It sounds more R&B than I thought. It seems like a good 6 of those songs could be single worthy. Thats a good thing. I’m loving that ‘Feeling me right now’

  7. BDABOSS July 6, 2011

    Down for Whatever was definitely produced by RedOne.

  8. ced July 6, 2011

    Wheres the video for Lay It On Me?? That needs to happen asap!!!

  22. Fantasy Ride July 6, 2011

    Team Kelly baby!!! I predict a top 5 debut

  23. BDABOSS July 6, 2011

    Yeah I think Feeling Me Now is a standout track, and I agree that Down for Whatever beat sounds just like More by Usher and On the Floor by J. Lo. I personally still think that I’m That Chick should be the next single.

  24. MusicismyLife July 6, 2011

    HER LABEL OR PROMOTIONAL PEOPLE ARE F***** UP NOW THEY NEED TO START PROMOTING RIGHT NOW.I HOPE THEY DONT THINK SHE WILL SELL BIG OFF OF MOTIVATION.SHE SHOULD BE DOING SOME KIND OF PROMOTION NOW NOT THE WEEK OF RELEASE.THIS ALBUM ACTUALLY SOUNDS GOOD. I PREDICT 50K FIRST WEEK.

  25. musik_lover July 6, 2011

    Singles should go as follows:

    1. Motivation
    2. Lay It On Me
    3. I’m Dat Chick
    4. Feeling Me Right Now

  26. Musictologist July 6, 2011

    this is FIRE!!! HIT AFTER HIT!!

  27. 100% Real July 6, 2011

    From what I’ve heard so far, I’m liking it! She has alot of up tempo songs on here. She’s kept her R&b sound on most tracks while still catering to her European fanbase on about 2 other tracks. I most definitely will be purchasing this. Good job Kelly!

  28. MusicismyLife July 6, 2011

    I’M DAT CHICK DOWN FOR WHATEVER COULD BE POTENTIAL SINGLES.

  29. that_lala July 6, 2011

    sounds so much better than 4!!!!!!

  30. Imgunnacheckuboo July 6, 2011

    Get it Kelly!

  31. ChrisJ July 6, 2011

    only 10 songs?? i wanted more sounds hot

  32. PopMaster July 6, 2011

    doesn’t sound like anything new…Motivation was hot because it didn’t sound like anything out…the rest of the tracks are regualr R&B/Hip-Hop songs…But i’m sure it’ll sell to the masses

  33. comedy July 6, 2011

    i wonder if it will sell..gooid
    ..Six flags giving back after laying off over 1,300 people.. http://goo.gl/v60Qz 4 tickets..s*** my whole fam going now!

  34. MusicismyLife July 6, 2011

    I Never realized but Kelly actually has a nice voice.I love her clear tone.

  35. ZOEBOI954 July 6, 2011

    OMG!!!!!!! IM SO EXCITED THIS ALBUM IS GANNA BE THE S***….EXACTLY WHAT I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR……..SEE THE HATERZZZ ON THEY WAY 5,4,3,2,1 LET GO!!!!!

  36. bey’knight July 6, 2011

    hmmm, kelly defo means business as far as rollin out SINGLES this era . the snippets made me wanna hear more so i guess they served their purpose. most lookin forward to

    keep it between us (apparently the only ballad we get this go round, why kelly?)

    down for whatever (love the melody)

    my only concern is lyrical content/ themes. kelly is 30.i expect deeper songs

    all in all, yea am totally checkin for it

  37. Drippin Swag Goo July 6, 2011

    50 k first week? That’s garbage, her last album did like 80k first week or so, she has a hit still on rotation and a lot more buzz than last time. I hope she does at least 100k. Anyway this album sounds hot from head to toe and I can’t wait to hear the deluxe songs especially “heaven & earth” they said the vocals were crazy on that track… I wonder what her follow up singles will be, its full of single material from what I heard.. Go kelly can’t wait til the 26th

  38. Harvey July 6, 2011

    Solid album I want HQ quilty and full im def buying

  39. Musictologist July 6, 2011

  44. HunnyBunny July 6, 2011

    IM WILL BE BUYING 3 COPIES- Kelly is serving me what I want!!!!!!

  45. VA STAND UP!! July 6, 2011

    Damn! It seems so early for snippets but the album does come out in like a fews weeks so I guess it is about time.

    I like what I’ve heard. Most of these sound really hot! Primarily r&b but has pop in it as well it still sounds like it could appeal to mainstream. She does dance music really well. I think she should release ‘Im Dat Chick’ as her next single. It’s hot as f***, uptempo & I think will has the potential to do better than ‘Motivation’ on the Hot 100. ‘Lay It Down’ just isn’t doing it for me and it’s clearly not doing anything on the charts.

    I’m still devastated that ‘Geronimo’ didn’t make the album! Ugh! I was sooo excited to hear it but I guess it didn’t fit with the album. I hope Chris will at least use it cause I don’t want it to go to waste. I’m still hoping her version will leak though! *crosses fingers*

    Now, it is beyond time for her to start her promo! That BET performance was hot but she needs to get it gear & start now!! Monique, Wendy Williams, George Lopez 106 & Park something!! I hope her team has some gigs lned up cause I would hate to see her flop.

  46. KoreanDream July 6, 2011

    Sounds horrible.

  47. Aryo July 6, 2011

    omg i wasnt expecting it to be this good, i loved down for whatever and turn it up
    the worst track was im dat chick, but it was just a snippet, it might be better on full

  48. Ashley July 6, 2011

    HELL YES! I will be buying every copy the store has of this Album!!! #HereIAm July 26!!!! #TeamKelly <3

  49. KINGB BISH July 6, 2011

  50. BDABOSS July 6, 2011

    I’m Dat Chick has been floating around the web for months. Just google it. I think singersroom and concreteloop have links to it.

  51. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) July 6, 2011

    It sounds solid, I can’t judge procisely from snippets.They’ve never been really helpful for me.

  52. Ghetto Fab July 6, 2011

    I know you gerls are still trying to collect what’s left of your wigs. Miss Kelly snatched!

    Feelin Me Right Now>>>>>> Countdown

  54. YOOSONDALOOSE July 6, 2011

    Very different could do well!
    1. I’m Dat Chick – I dislike this track, sounds cheap and trashy. But her vocals are refreshing
    2. Work It Man – Forgettable
    3. Motivation – 1 Single, still love it!
    4. Lay it on Me – Really good, more internationally friendly, could do well
    5. Feelin Me Right Now – Like it, more pop, her vocals are good at the speedy bit
    6. Turn It Up – Really like it, more dancey R&B good song, fast beats with good bass
    7. All Of The Night – Slower, could be considered a Ballard sounds soothing
    8. Keep It Between Us – Slower again, very, very Kelly
    9. Commander – First single sort of.
    10. Down For Whatever – My favourite so far! Love this track, really fast and cool.

  55. queenbey will always s*** on ur fave and leave them no option but 2 pout July 6, 2011

    Ciara+Keri Hilson= Kelly BasicBitch Rowland

    IF YOU PURCHASE MORE THAN ONE COPY BUY THEM ON DIFFERENT TICKETS HELPS THE SALES BETTER!!!

  57. 93-Up are stupid July 6, 2011

    This sounds HOT. I will be buying it. But is it me or doesn’t this still have the miss kelly vibe? Either or I’ve thought all of kelly’s albums were hot. So very happy to see her get her shine.I just need for her promo team to put in some work though so it’ll sale. the is no reason for kelly not to have a platinum album in the US by now and letoya does(Certification and all)

  58. luv music July 6, 2011

  66. mannyman July 6, 2011

    All Of The Night sound really hot so far

  67. Musictologist July 6, 2011

    i agree @BeyKnight. Bruno Mars did like 40k and after he worked his album and pumped out the singles.. He went platinum..

    First week sales mean nothing if that’s all you have… Be in it for the long haul.. Longevity >>>>…

    So proud of Kelly…..

  70. Ghetto Fab July 6, 2011

    @Bey’Knight

    Thank you. Kelly has never been a huge album seller and her fans know this. We are only here for good music and she has provided just that. Cannot wait for this. She has some club bangers on this album.

  71. Ghetto Fab July 6, 2011

    @QueenBey

    I see Kelly still has your panties in a bunch. Stay the f*** mad gorl. Kelly’s only rising every day. Motivation is number one for 7 WEEKS STRAIGHT! She’s on her way to the top and your rancid ass can’t stop her.

    Stay pressed gorl! *sips tea*

  72. Meat & Potatoes July 6, 2011

  76. cocodior3069 July 6, 2011

    omg this album is the deal!!!!!! can not wait to cop my 3 copies

  77. Royalkev July 6, 2011

    This cd isn’t sounding too bad. I must say that I’m pleasantly surprised, she’s really showing some promise. Too often Kelly gets the pity vote and people over exaggerate on praising her for a great performance or song. Her stans seem to get caught up in this fight for the under dog, where they would like to see her get into her own lane and form her own identity away from being in Bey’s shadows. The way you do that is by singing well written songs that click with people. It’s nice to see that she’s finally heading in this direction. I actually feel like people can genuinely say that they appreciate this album from what I’m hearing so far and it won’t come from this place of just rooting for her because your #team Kelly. I’m happy for her, because I didn’t have but so much faith in her. Now, Kelly is coming across like a real artist to me. I personally thought that her stans would have been in heaven if “4” were her masterpiece, but since it’s Beyonce’s some people will still hate on it. Now, that Kelly is coming off strong it won’t feel like people are clouded by their desire for her to outdo Bey – it’ll finally really be about her music! That really is an achevement and I’m truly happy that she’s not releasing music that lackluster and dated. I wish her luck!

  78. jay July 6, 2011

    LOVE IT! ALBUMS FULL OF SMASHES!

    Work It Man is a banger! it should have had a better feature than Lil Play tho, Kanye or sum1 would be better

  79. Prince&Queen Bey July 6, 2011

    I’m kinda disappointed that majority of this album is R&B. I wanted an Urban Pop Dance album from her. I guess she got confused when people started feeling “Motivation”.

    This should’ve been a Dance album Period. I think “Motivation” and maybe 1 more slow song should’ve be on here.

    Kelly…..I guess…..”Down For Whatever and “Feeling Me Right Now” is giving me what i want though!!!!

  80. antertain July 6, 2011

    They should call this album the US Edition cus the global ablum witth have more pop i assume.

    I’m feeling these snippets though and the long wait seems to have paid off cus she got good material here.

    Glad for her

  81. Superc00l July 6, 2011

    Turn It Up sounds like Smash, Smash, SMASH!!!

    She has gotten so much love, support and praise thus era. Everybody is rooting for her and she hasn’t let us down so far. She has her biggest solo hit Motivation 7 weeks #1, She has given the RnB fans Motivation, Lay It On Me. The dance fans Commander, Forever And A Day. I Havnt seen this much buzz for Kellz… In forever! This time around her singles are even doing better than Beyone :O I just hope people put there money where their mouth is. We all need to go out and get this. There is no point supporting and saying how good this era is, And not buy the album!! The sales of her last 2 wasn’t great, It’s up to us to make it a hit this time! We can do it, All together! Team KELLY!!

    “HERE I AM” JULY 26th EVERYONE!

  82. therowldawg July 6, 2011

    @QueenBey your an IDIOT! Bey needed jayz and sean paul to help her get hits! Yea you forgot about that huh?? Just shut up and DEAL!

  83. muni July 6, 2011

    OMG This b**** is about to own your fave OH I can’t take it I am so f****** excited!!

    #HereIam picking up 3 copies on July 26th 2011 I wanna be a part of history

  84. bey’knight July 6, 2011

    Her stans seem to get caught up in this fight for the under dog, where they would like to see her get into her own lane and form her own identity away from being in Bey’s shadows

    ——————————————————————————————————————-

    i agree and the BET awards is a perfect example of this, now am not sayin her performace was not up to par lipsynchin or not (my issue was lack of coonection) but every tweet in my TL that praised kelly also had beyonce’s name in that tweet. they are not helpin at all. how’s kelly goin to grow if they persistently make every kelly move an oportunity to spite beyonce. when kelly performs, it should b about kelly cus u know damn well the beyhive wont give kelly any mention when beyonve performs. it’s not impossible for them both to run the charts. kellu y is steping it up big tim and bey isnt relentin either

  85. BEYONCEVSTHEWORLD July 6, 2011

    I SMELL A FLOP

  86. B Lamont July 6, 2011

    Get it Kelly!!!!

  87. Royalkev July 6, 2011

    how’s kelly goin to grow if they persistently make every kelly move an oportunity to spite beyonce. when kelly performs, it should b about kelly cus u know damn well the beyhive wont give kelly any mention when beyonve performs. it’s not impossible for them both to run the charts. kellu y is steping it up big tim and bey isnt relentin either
    —————————————————————————————————-
    Exactly, when did the competition start? Bey and Kelly performed together at the BET awards in ’06 and it seems like there’s always some kind of connection with them 2 when that show rolls around. I think there’s more support than feelings of jealousy or rivalry. If there’s a war it’s certainly not between these 2 women. So, hang it up already!

  88. YeaBey July 6, 2011

    Work it Man sounds like Bedrock so Far…..

  89. YeaBey July 6, 2011

    Lay It On Me sounds more explicit than the Unfinished leak….I LOVE IT!!!

  90. YeaBey July 6, 2011

    She should release Lay It On Me now and then use the success of that to promote the album!

  91. YeaBey July 6, 2011

    Its Ok…I’m going to download the Leak…thats it ….unless the Deluxe version tracks WOW me!

  92. WTFFFF July 6, 2011

    Not impressed, and i can’t with this random ass placement of Commander! Doesn’t even go with the flow of the album!! I was really rooting for her…oh well. *plays 4*

  93. YeaBey July 6, 2011

    I will never put ANY of the members from destiny’s child against each other!

  94. Keepin it 100 July 6, 2011

    “Feelin Me Right Now” definitely shoulda been the next single….. tht song is gonna b hott! It sounds like nuthin out there like Motivation. I just hate the fact that her album comes out in 2 weeks in no promotion & no new video is out right now… if this album Flops it will be bcuz she n her record label did not make the effort to promote right… if they promote her they need to promote her like Keri Hilson, Trey Songz, etc… Motivation want do enough to get solid sales… I’m hoping she can atleast get 135k 1st week.

  95. Keepin it 100 July 6, 2011

    @ YeaBey

    I agree… all Dance Tracks should have been on the Deluxe album. Her entire album leaked on the internet??? What is she tryin to do… do a Beyonce….

  96. queenbey will always s*** on ur fave and leave them no option but 2 pout July 6, 2011

    @THEROWLDAWG- Actually NO I didnt forget. But how many hit songs QUEENBEY got on her OWN??? My point exactly!!! All of Kelly hits have been features, she has yet to get a hit on her own!!!
    *Now get a towel and wipe that egg off ur face* 🙂

  97. 100% Real July 6, 2011

    @ROYALKEV – I hear what you’re saying. You do make some interesting points. However, I don’t think it’s so much the “under dog” thing. I think people really just like the way the album sounds so far and want to see her do well. She’s always tried, but she could never really hit that mark the way it should have been hit. I’ve been rooting for Kelly for years now. I was just waiting for her to really “bring it”! And, this time, I think she has. This sounds like a nice solid piece of work here, and I hope she does well with it.

  98. Musictologist July 6, 2011

    Beyonce Fans.. I constantly support Beyonce’s work and know loads of Kelly Fans that do as well.

    Why can’t the same be said for you guys.. That’s just not cool. Kelly poses no threat to Beyonce being the baddest chick in the game at present. She has a couple hit albums to go before even being considered…

    How hard is for you to congratulate her and support her product which is actually very good this time?

    I will never understand you guys.. and you guys wonder why people dragged Beyonce this whole ERA for its lackluster performance thus far; its because of you guys.. You guys come at every chick in the game. Beyonce is IT! We get it but let the others do their thing as well..

    Stop with the hate and desire for Beyonce to have a monopoly in the industry that would be so boring..

  99. CR8TIVEi July 6, 2011

    THIS CD IS DOPE…I MUST SAY SHE PUT WORK IN WITH THIS ONE…I JUST HOPE HER TEAM STARTS PROMOs – PHOTO SHOOTs , COMMERCIALs, ADs, BILLBOARDs, MORE LIVE PERFORMANCES, MAGAZINE COVERS, etc… I MEAN COME ONNNNN ITS NOT THAT HARD [PROMO 101]… JUST WOULD TO SEE HERE WIN AND ACHIEVE WHAT IS WAYYYY PASS DUE FOR HER…

  100. mhud July 6, 2011

    queenbey or wateva u cal urslf eh,u need to shut up coz u aint makin any sense here at all..kelly rownland owns this year n thats all i can say.i luv u queen beautiful kelly rowland..hmm im pround of her

  101. GREG July 6, 2011

    lol, you Beyonce fans kill me…..just go play 4 and leave everybody alone…..just in here punching at every other female celebrity…..

  102. NikkiIsChillin July 6, 2011

    I can’t wait! I gotta support Kelly. I’m loving the song “I’m that chick”

  103. GREG July 6, 2011

    maybe because shes still filming X factor she hasnt started promotion yet…..

  104. 100% Real July 6, 2011

    It’s so funny how some people are on here throwing shade at Kelly, yet these are the very same ones that get mad if someone does it to Beyonce. Some people are saying that Kelly’s song, “Motivation” became a hit only because of Lil Wayne being featured on it. Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t Beyonce’s song, “Crazy In Love” have a featured guest on it too? Remember, Jay-Z? My, how quickly people forget! She also did a feature with Sean Paul on, “Baby Boy”. Those were #1 songs that she did featured collaborations with, and nobody said boo! Here are some other featured artists she’s done work with – “The Closer I Get To You” with Luther Vandross, “Deja Vu with Jay-Z, “Upgrade U” with Jay-Z, “Beautiful Liar” with Shakira, “Check On It” with Slim Thug, just to name a few. Beyonce’s first #1 single as a solo artists was with her husband on, “Crazy In Love”. So, people need to stop with the madness already.

    I like Turn Me Up & Motivaion, ..nothing else really stands out but it’s better than 4… I’ll have to wait to listen to the whole thing before I spend my money………why is she not proting it here though?? I guess it’s hard cause she is working in the UK but she could at least do some print interviews with urban mags & blogs.

    See here’s where I’m confused, Bey stans get lumped together just becuase 2 people from the Beehive aren’t impressed by Kelly’s cd. You still have a couple of people expressing that Kelly did a great job this time around(in that clan). I’m not sure what is expected from Bey stans in terms of “supporting” Kelly, by why is she singled out? Where’s the interest in support for Michelle? Heck, what about LeToya Luckett – Torn and Regret go so hard! She fought for her success. I just think that these Kelly stans are always comparing. It’s not normally Bey stans doing it, because there’s escalated tension due to Beyonce having more success, so there wouldn’t be any need for Bey stans to feel so threatened by Kelly. Rihanna pose more of a threat, I’m just being honest (I think Kelly’s more talented). I feel like Kelly hasn’t really delivered prior to this era and that needs to be taken into consideration. I’d think that when she does, she’d instantly have the support of the Beehive, there from the same family tree. It’s difficult for this to happen when you guys want to throw around insults as soon as Kelly gains anything. Everyone wants to point a finger and always criticize someone because it’s assumed that their behavior is a little smug when their on top for a while , however it’s wise for those people on the way up to check themselves! You can be worthy of things, but don’t let it give you a sense of entitlement.

    I’m sorry I had to hit ‘Miss’ …..I couldn’t even finish listening to each sample, she keeps everyone waiting with numerous pushbacks, and ‘This’ is it?! I’m sorry Kelly, I’m gonna continue listening to Beyonce’s ‘4’ that album blows your album way out of the park!

    Keep buying ‘4’
    Keep buying ‘4’
    Keep buying ‘4’
    Keep buying ‘4’

    P.S. I’m not a Beyonce Stan, Kelly’s album is just sounding….Crap!

    Kudos to all ‘the others’ though for ‘their’ honesty, and giving Kelly her deserved props…sounds great!!-)

  116. Justin Knows Best July 7, 2011

    Connor shut the f*** up….. that 4 train is about to come to a hault once Jay Z drops him & Kanye CD.

    Anyway I love the CD. I am so in love with Kelly Rowland. My s*** is Work It Man, I’m Dat Chick, Feelin Me Right Now….this whole CD goes off. Sorry to the haters but Kelly did that! Her CD goes off! To bad we cant say the same for ……….

  117. BDABOSS July 7, 2011

    Musictologist…By definition them being a ‘B-stan’ prevents them from recognizing any other female who’s doing great work!! F***** up part about it is it’s almost ‘innate’, or in their nature to try to steal someone’s joy, and spit upon it…

  119. Conor July 7, 2011

    One last comment, To everyone saying, ‘Sounds better than 4’ you need to clean out your ears, because, ‘4’ is a solid album and Beyonce’s vocals are crazy hot! 4 went straight to #1 if you hadn’t noticed!

    By the looks of things, I can see this doing a C-error with the ‘Basic Instink’ album!

  120. Kara July 7, 2011

    I hope all y’all go and actually purchase the album! Cuz beyonce has a solid loyal fanbase so she’s good! Stop throwing up Bey name it wont make Kelly more success

  121. Sonya July 7, 2011

    Can’t wait. Feeling me right now should be her next single. I will be buying my copy. Love them all.

  127. lyric “commander” lee July 7, 2011

    OMG THIS CD IS GIVING ME LIFE RIGHT NOW!!!

    First off let me start off by saying that I have been a Kelly Rowland fan since the early DC days and been riding the solo train with her since 2000 when she was featured on Avant’s remix “Separated”. To me she always stood out to me and her voice is pure gold – the way she connects with her songs (no matter the genre) is still unmatched to this day. She makes you beleive whatever she sings and you dont see that everyday. She makes music thats true to her and isnt just looking for a quick hit.

    As for her acheivements, she has sold over 4 millions albums and well over 10 millions singles – 5 grammys – more awards to boot.

    6 Hot 100 Top 40s (1 solo (stole) 2 lead (like this/motivation) 3 featured (delimma/here we go/separated)
    5 Top 10 R&B (stole/like this/motivation/delimma/here we go/separated).

    Lets take it international shall we!

    AUSTRAILIA – 7 TOP 40
    FRANCE – 3 TOP 40
    GERMANY – 6 TOP 40
    IRELAND – 9 TOP 40
    NETHERLANDS – 6 TOP 40
    NEW ZEALAND – 9 TOP 40
    SWISS – 6 TOP 40
    **UK – 12 TOP 40

    CAN WE SAY INTERNATIONAL SUPERSTAR!!! HATERS FALL BACK!!

    Now back to the album review of the preview lol.

    This album is exactly what it needs to be and it represents Kelly fully – Its basically a musical representation of who she is as a person. Rooted in R&B with splashes of Pop and Dance which is exactly who kelly is. For the haters who continue to throw shade its all good – you guys will probably end up downloading it anyway and for the people who wanted more dance – don’t forget the deluxe version has 2 more tracks and I can vouch personally that “Each Other” is pure sonic fire.

    She has something for everyone really.

    RnB fans: Im That Chick (fav)/ Work It Man / Motivation /Lay it On Me/Feelin Me……
    Dance: Commander/Each Other/Turn It Up/Down For Whatever
    Ballad – Keep it Between Us/ Heaven and Earth

    What else do u really want. Seriously. Plus the obvious reason for the majority of the RnB tracks is because A – it takes her back to her roots and B – all of her core rnb fans kept saying that kelly abandoned them when she went “dance” so she is trying to reconnect with them plus she already has 12 top 40s in the UK – they love her and she knows it – now she is trying to expand her urban fan base. The only real rnb songs she has released is “Separated/Delimma/Like This/Motivation”. She is kinda playing catch up with the her urban fan base (who shouldve copped Ms Kelly if it was that serious)

    All in all I am very suprised at how much im lovin this album. When I first saw the tracklist I was kinda disappointed when I saw it was only 10 tracks and 12 with the deluxe but truth be told, Id rather have a cd with 12 hot tracks then and cd with 17 songs that 6 i have to skip over!

    Ms Kelly did that with a nice blend of rnb and dance with a balld or two – Kelly Rowland to the core and I cant wait to get my copy of the deluxe version!!!

    Kelly Rowland better work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  128. KING#15 July 7, 2011

    IMA BUY IT….I LIKE IM DAT CHICK AND I REALLY WANT TO HEAR ALL OF FEELING ME RIGHT NOW

    THOSE TWO SONGS DEF NEED 2 BE HER NEXT SINGLES

  129. Ramury July 7, 2011

    @100%, I agree… well said… also I’d like to add that “When Love Takes Over” was a hit (think it won a Grammy) and she did that on her own.

  133. williNalli July 7, 2011

    I am feeling this album…I noticed that NOBODY SEEMS TO HAVE NOTICED “KEEP IT BETWEEN US”. That song is going to the real hit of this album…of course after the summer hit of “Lay it on me”….Heck I’m excited about all these songs.

  134. Arielle July 7, 2011

    I would have liked to have “Get Back” >>>>>>> http://hulkshare.com/drkjxpgpbglg
    The song IMO fitted the album’s body of work ^^
    Since album N°2, I feel KR is making solid quality music with her own touch on it, writing her OWN material (When Loves Take Over, all the songs on her “Ms Kelly”)…..
    She is underrated because this is life. No everyone is getting their shine on at the same time, it takes dedication and work ethic to be considered….. Beyonce has been doing this since 4 or 5 with all her family in it, and she shined at 21 by herself, that is a long time!!!!!
    Those comparing with LeToya…. She has been FORGOTTEN for almost 10 years, this is also an example of dedication and goal, of faith!!!!
    All the girls from Mathew Knowles’ factory seem to have great ethic, and be dedicated to make QUALITY MUSIC!
    They ALL could have been doing Easy like Rihanna, or Katy P. but they rooting for better and they working hard at it, always keeping their name in the game clean and all……

    People think life is easy, you need time and dedication to get your shine on…. What Rihanna is having is great, but she has no control over her career and money, I fear she might end up broke because her entourage seems to be using her and not “caring” for her (I mean on the longterm)………

    I am sick of the hate in the comments….. Please, Keri Hilson is working since the 99, writing for Mary J Blige and Usher and all…. She got her shine some 3 to 4 years ago and you think she just broke from nowhere????

    Please, just give me one link of Rihanna singing live correctly and I will respect her and giver her credit… I know she has talent, but we cannot see that: a singer is supposed to be singing, what is not her case, EVER!

    So all of U saying blah blah blah about this, just go on another post and let KR alone! Girl do Ur thang!

  135. tiff July 7, 2011

    I know I can read. This post is about Kelly Rowland’s Album Snippets. Why does Beyonce have to always come up when talking about any other female artist. Beyonce is Beyonce. Kelly is Kelly. Now back to the post… The album sounds good, might be her best one yet. Can’t wait to hear the whole thing cuz I’m happy with the snippets. Go Kelly.

  136. Fried Chicken July 7, 2011

    Its been a longtime coming for Kelly. It took her to damn long to get notice. her last album was terrrible, it sounded like a destinys child album. I luv kelly and her dance tracks are fire. Its sad that it motivation for her to get notice. But universal motown needs to promote the record, jimmy kimmel, lopez tonight, c*** brain, 106 & Park, monique show, good morning america, regis and kelly, ellen, hell this is her time to shine, she could also perform her dance tracks for mainstream appeal, commander is amazing, amazing song. Team Kelly standup

  139. PARRIS BLACK July 7, 2011

    I’M LOVING EVERY BIT OF IT. THERE IS A LOT OF POTENTIAL SINGLES HOWEVER I REALLY WAS HOPIN 4 MORE THAN 1 BALLAD AND 10 TRACKS IS CERTAINLY NOT ENOUGH. I’LL BE PURCHASING THE DELUXE EDITION BUT I’MMA STILL NEED AT LEAST 4 MORE SONGS THAT WE HAVENT HEARD B4. I CAN’T UNDERSTAND 4 THE LIFE OF ME WHY COMMANDER IS ON THE ALBUM. IT’S 2 OLD N THE URBAN VERSION WOULD HAVE FIT BETTER ON THE ALBUM AS A WHOLE RATHER THAN THE DELUXE EDITION. I’M FEELIN IT BUT I KNOW I’LL ONLY BE PLAYIN 8 OF THE 10 SONGS. I DON’T DO DANCE MUSIC. GIVES ME A HEADACHE. BUT LOVING THE OTHER TRACKS. N I THINK I’M THAT CHICK IS ON THE ALBUM BECAUSE IT’S A FAN FAVORITE….

    I’M STILL HOPIN SHE ADDS A FEW MORE SONGS.
    WHAT HAPPENED 2 THE OTHER SONGS WIT GUCCI MANE, RICK ROSS, & NICKI MINAJ?
    NOT 2 MENTION TRACKS SHE DID WITH SWIZZ, JD, AND BANGLADESH. THERE HAD 2 BE SOME FIRE THERE!
    I’M JUS SAYIN. MAYBE THERE’LL BE SOME SPECIAL TRACKS JUST 4 ITUNES OR AMAZON LIKE MONICA DID 4 HER ALBUM. CUZ I WANT MORE!
    OR BETTER YET MAYBE SHE SHOULD DROP A MIXTAPE

  140. Davey July 7, 2011

    I thought that this album was going to have more of a pop mix for the european version, and although they’re just snippets all the songs seem like they would sound similar on an album and would sound better on a mix tape.

    There were a lot of leaks that could’ve made this album hotter which they should’ve added regardless as well as the countless singles that were released because the fans will be expecting them.

    This version of the album actually reminds me of Ms Kelly

  141. Conor July 7, 2011

    Dumbass because there not HQ Previews duhh amazon always does that!!!

  144. Ok July 7, 2011

    I guess it’s okay, not something I would get too excited about. I guess i’m at the point now where I just like music that actually use music. I didn’t hear any horns or brass sounds, guitar or any musical instruments that would make this album stand out to me. There was one song that had a little piano, but that was it. Many of these beats seem like they were made off of “garage band”. Her voice sounds fine. But in all honesty that’s what sells now and artist are only good as the numbers they bring in according to some people, but it was just a snippet. I wish her the best of luck, but I liked “Simply Deep” the best.

  145. jamir21 July 7, 2011

    This sounds better than 4 !

  146. Misty Jean July 7, 2011

    I really like. Now I just need to hear the deluxe. Michelle Williams just dropped a new single from her upcoming album. All I need is for LeToya to start leaking music.

  147. YUPPITSME July 7, 2011

    this album sounds good i just wish commander was off the list and replaced but i will be buying get em kelly

  148. Huh?? July 7, 2011

    Why compare this to Beyonce album??? You can’t say if this is better or worse. You can only assess how well they do chart wise. At the end of the day that doesn’t even say which is better, just one is more marketable and that does nothing to prove musicality. I guess people get a kick out of saying one artist is better than the other? That’s dumb….

    This is lame and generic.
    What a shame..y’all got low and bad taste in music.
    Im sure this album will only sell around 50k for the first week.
    LOL

    I’m not impressed AT ALL.

  151. Koodzi July 7, 2011

    Hmmmmm…it sounds like a solid RnB album. I hope it does what she wants it to do.

    Nothing innovative/fresh but still solid. IMO.

  152. Ghana July 7, 2011

    one HOT album

  153. MH July 7, 2011

    I really want to like it but it’s not consistent at all. You can tell she worked with a bunch of different producers, I will judge the album fully once I buy it but as of right now it’s just okay.

  154. LaLa July 7, 2011

    Next single should be Turn It Up followed by All of the Night.

    I don’t know about the other songs man. I love Kelly, but as someone noted, most of them sound so generic. I really wanted her to breakthrough and do something so wildly different but it’s just mainstream R&B that ain’t moving much. I’m not being negative, just based on first impressions of the snippets.

    Motivation was hot cos it was fresh and different. Kelly baby, you said you’ve been trying out lots of new sounds and different producers but it just doesn’t show here…

  155. Bdaboss July 7, 2011

    It seems as though commander is out of place on this album, and so does that last track. I hope there will be a european version with more dance inspired tracks like On and On. I will be buying the deluxe version of this one as well. It’s funny how Kelly had us amped up about a dance inspired album but completely flipped the script and released an 80 percent r&b album. I feel as though this could have had a bit more pop appeal. Why couldn’t there have been like at least 12 tracks?

  156. Poisonous July 7, 2011

    Bey stans are good at putting other artists down and making excuses for her flops… Kelly will run this mother house down… Flops will rise this era.. she might do less than Bey, but this will go Platinum.. ‘Down For Whatever’ needs to be a single.. that’s a smasher right there.

  157. RosaRubbel July 7, 2011

    I’m so glad she went back to her roots. I’m going to support her because it actually sounds very good. ‘I’m Dat Chick’, ‘All Night Long’, ‘Keep It Between Is’ and ”Feelin Me Right Now’ are favourites so far. ‘Down 4 Whatever’ looks horrible to me.

  158. nice_gurl July 7, 2011

    I only liked Motivation, Lay It on Me, Feelin Me Right Now, All of the Night and Keep It Between Us. I don’t think I will buy this album. Still good for Kelly, but this just doesn’t appeal to me at all.

    YAAAS KELLY!

    I am feeling this album I wan’t to hear more.. might even consider buying it. She should have had like 2 more eurp pop songs like down for whatever but it’s still good.

    Singles should go like this if she is smart

    1.Motivation
    2.Down For Whatever
    3.I’m Dat Chick
    4.Feeling Me Right Now
    5. Keep it between Us
    Then TOUR!

    The biggest thing she needs right now is PROMO PROMO PROMO!!!! Like her stans need to PROMOTE Her and try get her and her team to promote this album. I hope they market this well..

    Oh I also see the Behive are here and pressed well I got news for you

    Kelly Rowland better work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    PS….

    OMG THIS CD IS GIVING ME LIFE RIGHT NOW!!!
    First off let me start off by saying that I have been a Kelly Rowland fan since the early DC days and been riding the solo train with her since 2000 when she was featured on Avant’s remix “Separated”. To me she always stood out to me and her voice is pure gold – the way she connects with her songs (no matter the genre) is still unmatched to this day. She makes you beleive whatever she sings and you dont see that everyday. She makes music thats true to her and isnt just looking for a quick hit.

    As for her acheivements, she has sold over 4 millions albums and well over 10 millions singles – 5 grammys – more awards to boot.

    6 Hot 100 Top 40s (1 solo (stole) 2 lead (like this/motivation) 3 featured (delimma/here we go/separated)5 Top 10 R&B (stole/like this/motivation/delimma/here we go/separated).

    Lets take it international shall we!
    AUSTRAILIA – 7 TOP 40 FRANCE – 3 TOP 40GERMANY – 6 TOP 40IRELAND – 9 TOP 40NETHERLANDS – 6 TOP 40NEW ZEALAND – 9 TOP 40SWISS – 6 TOP 40**UK – 12 TOP 40

    CAN WE SAY INTERNATIONAL SUPERSTAR!!! HATERS FALL BACK!!

    did you forget Simply Deep was a hugeee success???

  174. sade July 7, 2011

    Sounds Amazing. It’s the type of album where you can press play on the first song and just let the whole album play. thumbs up! I am so excited

  175. DGRATEN8 July 7, 2011

    From someone who’s been following her from the beginning…I will have to say this is the best work she’s done and will be more commercial success for her. If I were on her promo team, I would definitely want her promoting right now until the album comes out. Everyday she’d be on a show, at a concert or something. I dont think commander should be on the album–it should have been a bonus track…unless it was the urban version with Nelly…that wouldve made more sense to me in the context of the album, but she made the decisions and did what she wanted to do. Commander was a big hit for her worldwide…so cant deny it just cuz the US is a lil slow

  176. queenbey will always s*** on ur fave and leave them no option but 2 pout July 7, 2011

  190. Briannhy July 8, 2011

    This cd is very average. I swear yall will give Kelly props just for the f*** of it. There was nothing different about Motivation. Sound like the rest of the sexed-out songs on the radio.

    This album sounds like something Ciara or Keri wouldve made.

  191. Slutbucket July 8, 2011

    Hot!
