Hot Shot: Keyshia Cole Covers ‘Rolling Out’ *Updated*

 

Fans can trust and believe that R&B beauty Keyshia Cole is hot on the promo trail in support of her forthcoming effort ‘Woman To Woman’.

Set to go head-to-head with pop megastars Rihanna and Nicki Minaj, Cole is undoubtedly cooking up a major promo campaign to fend off the competition.

Set to unveil appearances on top shows next week, fans can first find the ‘Love’ singer afront ‘Rolling Out’ magazine.  There, she dishes on her relationship with husband Daniel ‘Boobie’ Gibson, her thoughts on Brandy & Beyonce, and – of course – the commercial mishap that was 2010’s ‘Calling All Hearts’.

See excerpts and more photos below:

Via RollingOut:

The title of your album, Woman to Woman, what’s the meaning behind it?

It’s for women who have been through similar situations and can relate to me. It’s for all women. It’s also a personal statement. It has been 10 years since I signed to Intersope. I became a woman before everyone’s eyes.

The last album didn’t do as well as your other work. Why didn’t it resonate with fans?

I was pregnant. I was going through a lot with my family at the time. Some of the songs were about them. It was an extremely emotional time and it reflected on the album. When you’re pregnant, you’re 10 times more emotional about everything. .

Are there any couples in entertainment you admire for being examples of a strong family?

I respect Beyoncé and Jay-Z, because I know how hard it can be to stay in love in this business. In the beginning, it appeared as if Jay-Z knew Beyoncé had work to do. I respect that. You can’t go into a relationship trying to change someone. You have to grow with that person and go through everything with them. That’s one thing that I noticed and I respect about them. Of course, I’m not with them every day, but that’s what I see from the outside looking in.

What do you want your overall message to be for those who relate to your songs?

I didn’t have great examples while coming up in Oakland. I was able to look to examples in the industry such as Brandy. She was able to do a lot at an early age. In Mary J. Blige I saw strength. She never gave up. That’s what I want to leave behind. I want young women to know that where they start doesn’t have to be where they finish. You have to take it a day at a time. You go through things, you learn and you keep fighting.

  3. Dustin November 16, 2012

    Awe Keisha ure still trying babe? You can’t sing, you can’t dance and only ghetto whores with gelled down baby hair and AK47’s can relate to your music. Obama needs to ship this trash to the back hoods of Compton where she belongs!

    • RICHANDBLACK11(JUST LIKE OBAMA AND BEY November 16, 2012

    • RICHANDBLACK11(JUST LIKE OBAMA AND BEY November 16, 2012

      so you don’t think gaga CAKE LIKE GAGA AINT RATCHET…..OH THE IRONY

      PS. LEARN HOW TO SPELL BEFORE TRYING TO SHADE

      • GAGA THE MESSIAH November 16, 2012

        WHILE KEYSHIA IS RATCHET, THAT’S NOT WHAT I SAID.

        Look it up you hoodrat m***** imbecile! You are just as low budget and basic as your ghetto Boys In The Hood extra flop queen Keyshia!

        GAGA will never be a ratchet mess like her!

      • FAF November 17, 2012

        Keyshia cole is QUEEN of R&B & U will DEAL !

      • Truth November 17, 2012

        I’d rather be “wretched,” “ratchet” or any of those punk ass words you used, than a f****** oddball and weirdo…which is what Gaga is. Gaga looks and acts like she’s on acid. Keyshia wouldn’t even need to say anything to her, all she would have to do is give her a look like ‘shut the f*** up’ and Gaga would cut all that fruitcake behavior out in her presence.

  6. mobwife:”Nobody’s Perfect”….well, but ME November 16, 2012

    Keyshis just has too many looks for me! I love the shoes but the rest of the outfit has to go! I like what she said about Bey and her pet camel! I also like what she said abou MJB who the media has always pegged as her arch rival!

  7. williNalli November 16, 2012
