Kelis Does Hunger Magazine; Reveals New Album Details

Published: Sunday 25th Dec 2011 by Sam

The ever-eclectic Kelis makes a return to the public eye with a stunning new shoot in Hunger magazine.

Shot by the publication’s brainchild (photographer Rankin), the former Mrs Nas joins Kelly Rowland as one of the music names tapped to feature in the launch of the lifestyle monthly.

Yet, in news that will no doubt titillate supporters that much more, the singer has revealed that the follow-up to 2010’s ‘Flesh Tone’ not only almost finished, its release is around the corner.

Details and more Hunger pics below…

9.14 mark onwards…

With the interview being shot in late September, new material is literally around the corner – should her timeline have played out as planned.

Whatever the case, after the heavy Dance overtones of her last LP (which garnered critical praise, but commercial rejection), it’ll be uber interesting to see what Ms. Rogers serves up on this new outing. Having seemingly ditched the outright commercial route (opting instead to strike up Independent partnerships with major labels on a project by project basis), the creative freedom afforded to her under such a setup excites us. Roll on 2012!

Your thoughts?

    Am I the only one who noticed that Kelis’ photoshoot was done at the same house as Teedra Moses’ album cover for “Complex Simplicity”

  7. number1k9 December 26, 2011

    Is she still under will.i.am’s imprint on Interscope?

    If so, he needs to give her some hot, futuristic beats ANNNNND some Hip Hop & R&B beats to sing over…

    That could be both artisitc and commercial if done properly!

  8. Weywey December 26, 2011

    When i first read this, i read it as “Kelis dies of hunger”.

  9. YOOSONDALOOSE December 26, 2011

    YES! I cannot wait, love ‘Flesh Tone’ was amazing and so good,

    She needs something like that again! Kelis was amazing, but I wonder what her musical direction will be?

  10. morgat December 26, 2011

  11. ERIC December 26, 2011

    That’s a beautiful picture, I love the contrast between her lips and her blouse. 🙂
    Kelis is amazing, “Flesh Tone” was such a fresh album last year, I can’t wait for new material.

  12. NAUDISWEET (Xtina Stan) December 26, 2011

    Love her, she’s amazing and beautiful. That nose ring is so unflattering though. Ugh.
    Anyways can’t wait for her new stuff

  13. Kyle December 26, 2011

    I would be so happy if Kelis returned with an album in 2012. I absolutely loved “Flesh Tone” and I will probably like her new material just as much. I love how she is so underrated because at least she doesn’t sell out. She just does what she wants to do and she does it well.
