As the release of Kelly Rowland‘s hotly anticipated new album draws ever-nearer its May/June release, producer Rico Love has given fans a taster of what the LP will sound like. The hit-maker, who is co-producing Rowland’s entire project, previewed an instrumental of a confirmed album track on Twitter a few moments ago. Eager to get a feeler of what Ms. Kelly’s single is set to sound like? Check it out after the jump!…..
I say this not only a stan fan, but as a critic, I’m loving the sound of this! Granted no full judgement can be made until hearing Kelly’s vocals on the track, the instrumental really does sound like the Pop/Urban/Dance mesh Kelly (and the project’s producers) has been raving about for so long. Roll on April (the debut of the first single)
<3 it already!
she gotta come harder than that
Diggin dem sounds…. cant wait for finished product!

This will be the year of Kelly. I hope Beyonce doesn’t release an album this year or she will look like she is trying to take kelly down. Beyonce don’t let papa knowles make you release an album because that will make you look shady. Anyways this track sounds HOT!! GO MISS KELLY!!
the tune is DOPE DOPE DOPE!!!
Misleading title.
Sounds like Radio….but I’ll wait to hear Kelly’s vocals.
This sounds HOT! Kelly is coming back hard, hope she doesn’t flop like her last
Not a fan of too much dance music, but I love the sound of this. Has a dark feel to it – iLIKES
SOUNDS HOT IM ROOTING FOR YOU KELLY SHE DESERVES SUCESS! ITS CIARA YEAR ALSO BOTH OF THEM WILL DO GREAT
while it doesn’t sound bad, i feel like the dance/pop sound is SO overplayed already.. idk if it’s wise for her to jump on that sound now.
Hot! Beyonce doesn’t have nothing to do with Kelly or her sale if Beyonce release’s an album People Buy Music so if you don’t buy Kelly’s Music then she won’t sale.
Beyonce shouldn’t wait until Kelly is done with her album they are both grown women doing their own things so If Beyonce puts an album out this year so be it
I hate when people make dumb remarks like that
But overall I love the track
YEAH IM SORRY SHE DEF HAS TO COME HARDER THAN THIS. . .BRITNEY SPEARS, CHRISTINA AUGILERA, KELIS, ETC ARE COMING AND THEIR COMING FULL FORCE SO IF SHE DOESN’T COME HARD SHE WILL GET LEFT BEHIND. .. ITS NOT CUTTING IT FOR ME. & WHY IS HE REVEALING IT FOR SMH. .. . .SEE ITS SAD WHEN A PRODUCER IS SHOWCASING AN ARTIST WORK AND THEY HAVE NO SAY SO. . .BUT BACK TO THE SONG ITS JUST CUTE NOT BIG
flop, no one checking for kelly,
she better pray to god that beyonce doesnt release her new album soon , either way kelly is gonna flop
omg what kinda dark-room music is this lmao
it sounds cheap like hell lmao
oh i am so gonna drag kelly to the pits when she flops
when is her flop album expected to come out
KELLY IM NOT FEELIN IT
COME HARDER
Can’t wait!!!!!!!
She looks amazing in that photo. Great choice a pic Sam!
Anyways, I’m feeling this. Its HAWT!
very exciting.
@Blasian How is that remark, dumb? I just feel Kelly needs to make a name for herself. I just hope people realize there is more than Beyonce. That won’t happen if Beyonce makes an album. I just hopes she doesn’t. But if she does it will be hot like all her other albums.
Welcome haters. We’ve been expecting you all, and we knew you all wouldn’t like it so that’s no surprise. I like what I’ve heard thus far, and I know I’ll love it once Kelly’s vocals murder this track!!!!!!!!! Can’t Wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it sounds promising, but it sounds like something i’ve heard before.
i’ll reserve judgment til i hear her vocals on it, but i’m hopeful it turns out to be really good.
Haaaaaaaaaaaate it
just sounds like an average Pop/Urban/Dance song so far , nothing special.
‘Ello
BEYONCE HAS HER FAN BASE AND SO DOES KELLY.
IT’S DUMB BECUZ BEYONCE DOESN’T HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH KELLY SELLING OR NOT THATS WHAT YOU PEOPLE DON’T WANNA REALIZE.
WAS BEYONCE THE REASON FOR “WHEN LOVE TAKES OVER” DIDN’T GO #1 IN THE US? NO
BEYONCE SHOULDN’T TAKE A BREAK FOR KELLY OR ANYONE ELSE TO SHINE THATS THE MOST DUMBEST THING I EVER HEARD
YOU SHOULD TAKE A BREAK FROM YOUR JOB THAT U DO SO WELL FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO SHINE NO TAKE A BREAK BECUZ YOU WANT TO BUT TAKE A BREAK BECUZ OF OTHERS PLZZZZZZZZZZZ
LIKE I SAID BEYONCE DOESN’T HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH KELLY’S SALES IF HER FANS DON’T BUY IT WON’T SALE END OF STORY .
THEY’RE NOT IN DESTINY’S CHILD NO MORE THEY SUPPORT EACH OTHER AND LOVE EACH OTHER BUT EVERY WOMAN IS FOR HERSELF
SO THATS WHERE I GET I HATE WHEN PEOPLE MAKE DUMB REMARKS LIKE THAT
Kelly we like it no judgement so far, but please come even harder. WE all love you praying that you make good decisions.
This is so HOT!!! OMG!!! I want more. I’ve listened to it three times and each time I was jamming at my computer. I can’t wait! This don’t sound like “Radio”. This sounds bigger and better than “Radio”. I can’t wait to hear Kelly’s vocals over it. I wonder if this is a completed song that he’s simply letting the public sample or if it’s a new track that he’s working on and they still have to right to it. Either way, I hope it makes the album.
Yall are so f***ing stupid.
How can yall say come harder or this is wack when all you heard was a damn instrumental track?
So damn dumb.
I swear.
too dance-pop
How can she come harder? it’s a f***** instrumental.
She hasn’t even laid them down vocals down, and yall STAY complaining.
Man Kelly is gonna bring it!! AND I DONT CARE WAT NOBODY SAYS…
@Stan at 2:22… I agree that the dance/pop sound isn’t anything revolutionary at this point, but I also feel like Kelly’s pretty much been a UK artist for the past few years and she’s not just jumping on the bandwagon now. Work (freemasons) was before the sound took off, and she nailed it then even though it was a remix.
Idk yet, till I hear her on the track. Does sound very unique thou, but kinda euro pop/dance to me.
LOL at everyone saying she needs to come harder. Kelly is not even on the track yet you dumb F****! LMAO
Sounds really hot so far. This can definately take over the clubs in Europe and Asia. As far as the US, I’m sure it will do well over there too because now everyone wants to sound like a European Pop star. I don’t blame Kelly she does well over there anyway. Song sounds like a club banger though.
i love all the haters we have here – 33 comments already hmmm lovin it – she starting to get as many haters as rihanna and we all know that story – back to the snippet – i actually love it – sp the urban breakdown part – she is giving us exactly what she said she was gonna give us – an urban pop mix – she is definently on her donna sommers right now and what makes this tack different is the urban appeal – think of gaga – shes dance/pop beyonce falls in the cateogry of dance pop with (sweet dreams and radio – the only thing urban about the songs was the way bey sung it esp radio) kelly’s sound is urban/dance as u can tell by the beat itself. ms kelly has a very soulful voice and thats what makes her different – plus she has been working on the sound since “Work” and the remix came out which was in jan 2008 – 2 DAMN YEARS AGO – so how can you haters say its too late to jump on the bandwagon – MS KELLY knows what she is doing as in full control.
ON ANOTHER TIP – how can you tell her to come harder when youve only heard a 1 minute insturmental WITH NO VOCALS from 1 track out of a possible 12 and already start to hate – its really sad that ppl really just arent satisfied no matter how you spin it – i remember when Bey released “Sweet Dreams” then titled “Beautiful Nightmare” and how everybody jumped down her throat for the song and now all of a sudden u on her ass and the song like its the best thing since sliced bread! Im glad she is doing her and for the ppl who really sit at home and hope for someone to fail – HOW YOU MUST HURT. IS YOUR LIFE REALLY THAT BAD WHERE THE ONLY ENJOYMENT YOU EXPERIENCE IS BY WISHING BAD FORTUNE ON OTHERS —– YALL NEED JESUS OR WHOEVER YOU PRAY TO.
MS KELLY YOU BETTER WORKKKK! IF THE US DONT EMBRACE YOU THEN YOUR TRUE FANS WILL PLUS THERES ALWAYS THE UK AND THE REMAINING AREAS WHERE YUVE BEEN WELCOMED AND EMBRACED FOR YEARS – WHEN YOU GO ON TOUR KILL THE OVERSEAS MAMA AND THEN SHOW THE US “WHY THE SAYING MS BEFORE THEY MENTION YOUR NAME” — SHE TOLD YALL SHE WAS GONA BUMP LIKE THIS.
P.S.S – dont forget to dust of your grammys – ALL 5 OF EM!!! HATERS FALL BACK!!!!!!
. . . . a instrumental , reallllllly.
I am not a Kelly stan but I can tell you this song is going to be fireeeeeeeeee especially when Kelly voice soars over it. Sorry haters but you guys are going to be so mad because Kelly is on her way with or without yall. She has made her fanbase now worldwide and the US is part of her fanbase I read so many messages of fans from the US waiting on Kelly’s album. I can tell the people who said they didn’t like it or she need to come harder they were going to say that if she came out with poker face or single ladies they are just going to hate. But Kelly knows that for every hater she has ten times more who love her.
p.s. For some of you who don’t like her you sure be in all her threads lol
im looking forward to this album more than ushers. some reason i aint feeling usher this time round.
rico is looking like some scary mofo in thaty clip
Kelly looks so pretty in the picture above. If she is not really Beyonce half sister she really do look more like Matthew here than his others two daugthers by far. I truly believe that Matthew is her father and he should admit to it now. Also Beyonce will support her sister.
Hotly anticipated? You’re the only one anticipating this bro.
I think its okay, i guess…… i cant really make any final judgments on it till i hear the vocals……. im a hardcore Kelly STAN and i just think it so far sounds mediocore ……. i cant wait ti hear them crazy Kelly vocals thou………. when love takes ooooovvvvvvvvaaaaaaaa, yyyyyyeeeeaaaaahhhhhhh, you know u cant deny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ya’ll need to keep ya’ll comments centered around the song; that’s what this thread is about. Anything else is irrelevant. The track is fiyah, just face it. It doesn’t sound like nothing that’s at radio and Kelly’s vocals period, though not on the song yet don’t sound like anybody’s at radio. This is a breath of fresh air, and all I have to say is please don’t be afraid to become a fan of Kellys because she’s going UP with or without you.
im liking it! but how we know its from kelly rowland?
Rihanna has d same outfit in d post above
I am sure Kelly knows what she is doing, she knows how hard she needs to comeback, but the label really needs to promote the album, the singles, whatever she puts out. Another thing is the fans, we as the fans we need to start buying KELLY products, especially in US she needs you guys, be honest with yourselves and embrace her talent. Beacuse I know fans in UK never let KELLY down. Please guys KELLY needs you more than ever. Peace
You tell ’em Lyric Lee,
I’ll never understand folk who thrive off of negativity. The funny thing is,if Rico Love was producing this track for Beyonce all the nay sayers would be insisting it’s the hottest thing they’ve ever heard. They’d be praising her to high heaven for creating a sound and style all her own. THEN AGAIN,if it were Beyonce the style would not be all her own because we ALL know that she is swagga jacker no#1.
Kelly is not jumping on anyones bandwagon. As previous posters have stated,Kelly began experimenting with this sound over two years ago and her collaboration with Guetta was an authentic venture into dance music. She wasn’t just following a trend she was setting one. How many other U.S. artists are now jumping on Kelly’s bandwagon by suddenly wanting to collaborate with Guetta to achieve a more European sound. Just give Kelly her props. She played an intrical part in ushering in this sound that so many people are now embracing.
As far as the track is concerned. It’s HOTNESS!!! Any one who says it’s not is musically retarded. What exactly would youre idea of “coming harder” be? We don’t even know if this particular track will make the album. I for one hope it does because it’s the perfect blend of dance,urban & pop. It’s exactly what Kelly said she was going for. I’m excited and greatly ANTICIPATING KELLY’S NEW SOUND AND NEW ALBUM.
I just hope is not the first single as the first single has to be something hot and different at the same time. Apart from that this is a dance #1 hit definitely. Lets get it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hot!!!!!!!
DO NOT LIKE IT. IT WILL SELL OVERSEAS MORESO THAN HERE. KELLY LIKES HERE INTERNATIONAL FANBASE, BUT DOES NOT APPRECIATE THE AMERICAN MARKET. HER LAST ALBUM WAS GREAT!!!! IT LACKED PROMOTION. SHE NEEDED MORE LIVE APPEARANCES WHERE SHE PERFORMED. I WILL NOT PURCHASE THIS ALBUM IF SHE KEEPS SINGING THAT HOUSE MUSIC MESS!!!!
Troy! stfu! you probably were not a fan anyway! ontothenextone she will not miss you buyin bye!! lol! this is not any way house music. its dance with a fusion of randb and hip hop!!! yall are some fickel pickels. of kelly appreciates the overseas market they appreciate her.
YESSSSSSS!!!!!!! THIS IS THE ROUTE I’VE BEEN SAYIN KELLY NEEDS 2 B GOIN…& FINALLY SHE IS. IM SOOOOO HAPPY, KELLY IS GONE “ROCK THIS S**T LIKE FASHION, FASHION. GO UNTIL THEYYYYYYY STOP!) LOL I CNT WAIT KELLY… :)~
I hope its more R&B on the album……
I dont about that new single, but ms. kelly have some beautiful skin in thta pic
Love ” UNITY ” by Kelly Rowland … amazing song ! Two <3 <3 forever 😉
WOW! This chick is about to kill the game. I expected alot from Kelly Rowland this time around but I didn’t think she’d be bringing heat like this. I never listened to house or dance music before now(I’m not a clubber) but I’ve discovered that I like it. I was exposed to it via r&b remixes and what not,then Kelly showcased it on her Diva Deluxe album(which I love). Then “When Love Takes Over” became this worldwide hit and because Kelly was featured on not one but three of David Guetta’s songs for his abum One Love(which I really enjoy) I decided to buy it. I was kind of nervous because I didn’t know what to expect but I liked it. I really liked it. I thank Kelly for turning me on to a brand new genre of music. Her voice is so versatile. Girlfriend can sing anything and dance is no exception. She’s going to kill it. I know she is. And yeah,I will be buying this album.
her album is gonna be fire – she constanly switches it up with every album and her growth as an artist is amazing 0 i mean what can’t she do – pop /alt rock /rnb /hip hop/dance – my baby is talented and i love it – shes bringing it back to the days where big voices rode dances beats gracefully breaking down the dance charts (ie whitney deborah mariah) dis chyck is ready to dominate and has found a sound that she can truly grow and experiemnt with – BRING IT ON MS KELLY!!!
CHOCOLATE GODDESS – MY WIFEY IS OT – I LIKE HOW RIHANNA ROCKIN THE SAME OUTFIT – HMMMMM!! MS KELLY BETTA WORK!!!
This is the bizzness.
I tagree with everything PLUG said!!!!1
SOUNDS FREAKIN HOT>>>>
I love this but I feel Kelly’s getting too close to Michelle Williams’ direction…Michelle was the first in DC to really go head-first into the Dance-Pop/Electronic sound and now Kelly is…
Kelly’s sound sounds nothing like Michelle’s sound. Kelly’s sound is Pop/Urban/Dance not Dance-Pop/Electronic. Plus, Kelly’s list of producers are waaaaaay different from Michelle’s. Oh and another thing, Michelle didn’t solidify that direction so…
Roll on April. This beat sounds amazing !!
Kelly is going to do amazing. But it seems quite strange Beyonce’ and Kelly wanted to do DANCE/EuroPop after they heard Michelle’s ‘Unexpected’….Go Figure
she should sing real low and s*** on this track.
if she sings out loud she will sound wack and off key. She needs a sade vocal for this joint… lolol
@ PHABIAN Kelly has always been original, Ms Kelly came before Unexpected and songs like” comeback “and “work “or even “like this” are more pop that RnB so don’t tell me that KELLY is taking ideas from Michelle yeah!!. I am not too sure about Beyonce as she came after Michelle’s album so, I don’t know. Anyways KELLY is going to do great from this point on. WE LOVE YOU KELLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DEM HATERS NEED 2 GO STRAIGHT 2 HEEEEEEELL!!!!!!. N ITS TOO BAD CUZ KELLY DIDN’T SELL BECAUSE SHE WAS NOT PROMOTED JUST LIKE MICHELLE BUT THAT NIGHTMARE IS OVER. WHEN AN ASSHOLE DOESN’T DO THE JOB YOU PAY IT FOR YOU GOTTA KICK ITS ASS TO THE LEFT AND JUMP LIKE THIS WHEN IT IS MOST UNEXPECTED. IF HONESTY IS WHAT YOU HAVE YOU WILL AGREE THAT UNEXPECTED IS FAR BETTER THAN SASHA FIERCE. THINK ABOUT IT: WE BREAK THE DAWN IS WAY TOO MUCH FOR SINGLE LADIES SO IS THE GREATEST FOR IF I WERE A BOY. N THAT’S NT ALL, LUCKY GIRL IS DEFINITELY HOTTER THAN SWEET DREAMS. DON’T BELIEVE ME? ASK RICO THE MAN WHO PRODUCED BOTH SONGS. AND ONE MORE THING IF YOU THINK KELLY IS GOING TO FLOP, LOOK IN YA HEART AND SEE WHY THAT WILL BE THE CASE AND YOU WILL REALIZE THAT YOU DON’T HAVE ANY REASON TO SAY THAT IF YOU LISTEN TO THE WORK SHE HAS DONE SO FAR. SHE INTRODUCED DAVID TO AMERICA N WON A GRAMMY 4 HEAVEN’ S SAKE! SHE THEN REMIXED MARIO’S THINKIN’ BOUT YOU AND YOU WILL AGREE THE REMIX IS WAY BETTER THAN ORIGINAL. I HAVE ONE THING 2 SAY TO YOU HATERS GO OUT AND LISTEN TO MUSIC NOT …USIC. YOU DEFINITELY DON’T HAVE A TASTE FOR GREAT MUSIC FOR THE ONLY PERSON WHO CAN SING TO YOU IS BEYONCE ALONE. ASK BEYONCE WHICH ARTISTS SHAKE HER ASS N SHE WILL TELL YOU ITS KELLY ROWLAND FOR SHE KNOWS HOW STRONG SHE IS. SHE IS THE SOLE REASON WHY DESTINY’S CHILD GOT A DEAL WITH COLUMBIA. GO N WATCH THEIR AUDITIONS AND TELL ME WHO ACCORDING 2 YOU SANG VERY WELL WITH A STRONG VOICE BACK THEN. IT WAS KELLY YOU ASSHOLE!! THAT’S WHEN MATTHEW DECIDED TO GIVE BEYONCE ALL THE BACKGROUND SOUNDS TO BEYONCE. HE KNEW THAT IF HE GAVE THE GIRLS EQUAL OPPORTUNITY HER DAUGHTER WILL NOT SHINE AS MUCH AS KELLY . SO GET PISSED OFF !!!!! HOWEVER, THE FACT THAT YOU ARE HERE SHOWS HOW SCARED YOU ARE. WE FEEL FOR YOU AND WE WILL OPEN THE DOOR FOR YOU WHEN YOU BEG US TO LET IN WHEN YOU REALIZE WHAT ASSHOLES YOU ARE.
am lovin it, and love u Kelly
