Say what you will, but one really can’t knock Kelly Rowland‘s hustle.
The ‘Motivation’ minx is currently juggling her judging role on the X Factor, with promotion for her third studio album ‘Here I Am’, the latter of which she’s set to give a boast with not one, but two new music videos.
Full story below…
According to our good friends over at The Skopion Show, the 30 year old revealed that she is gearing up to shoot visuals for ‘Feeling Me Right Now’ and ‘Keep It Between Us’.
The shoots will reportedly take place here in London town, where the singer is stationed for her role on the X Factor UK.
————————–
Ode to self ‘Feeling Me’ has long been a favourite here at That Grape Juice HQ, as such we’re elated its set to receive the video treatment. Truth be told, it lyrically boasts a more universal appeal than than racy current effort ‘Lay It On Me’ and perhaps should have been the project’s 2nd single from the outset.
Indeed, as breakthrough of a year as it’s been for Ms. Kelly, it’d be silly to play down the fact she’s somewhat spread herself too thin. For the X Factor gig, while huge, has ultimately hindered the promotional push for the album (she’s basically been UK based, while the LP dipped and then some Stateside).
Still, what’s done is done, and it appears her team are going the Trey Songz route in a bid to keep her media fire burning (see: countless videos and features). No doubt a smart move in bridging this project to her next – which is reportedly due Spring 2012.
We just hope all syncs together a bit better on her next outing. No huge gaps between singles #1 and #2. No releasing an album in a window she can’t promote within. None of that.
The Platinum success of ‘Motivation’, the X Factor, and her show-stopping performances, have seen her raise her “stock” considerably this year. Project #4 is the time to really capitalise on that.
Anywhoo…take a listen to ‘Feeling Me Right Now’ below…
YESSSSSSSSSS!!! I LUV BOTH SONGSSS , I”M EXCITED …
Good, that’s my fave off of the album and it should’ve been the 2nd single!
IF YOU LOVE KELLY YOU’LL LOVE THIS COVER OF A GREAT SONG!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdxRe_41NdQ
Firstly She took forever with the “lay it on me” video Then she does not promote it and the video wasn’t as great as I thoght it was gonna be she should make the new vids “all of the night” and “Turn it up” But I love kelly
What about “Down For Whatever” video?
Yes TGJ for crediting Kevin and Makael of The Skorpion Show, which by the way is a youtube show that you all will love if you don’t already!!!!!!!! Oh ad yes for Kells I love the DC women and support the all.:)
So she finally listened to me and release my two fav songs off of the album. I told you that my word counts for alot. LOL!
yaasss
oommgg
i loooooooveeee keep it between us
Kelly Please get it Together
Good for her. She still is a flop tho
Ohh good choice Kelly, but anything would be a good choice, when is Down For Whatever getting a vid?
U BETTER WORK KELLY!!!
Good choices for follow up singles. @Maz The Down for Whatever video was shot the same time as LIOM, and should be released soon.
She’s is obviously gonna a make a statement this year; Here I am may not have sold big in US but it’s goin to be very huge in the UK, it doesn’t matter where the album is Sold!
Lay it on Me had to follow Motivation so that she could prove her sexiness n impart the US cos Sexiness is what they want, lol. LIOM has reached almost 6M views on Utube in 5days. Trust me, people are now checking for Kelly.
Feeling me right now n Keep it Between us were d two songs that i fell in luv with on 1st listen.
Here I am Tour is coming soom!
Quit calling her a Flop!
Down for whatever will be released to Radio n Itunes Oct 30th in the UK, and the album is due 7th Nov, so expect the video within a week!
She’s performing DFW live on Xfactor in November, so she’s working her b*** off!
Oh the labels…You can release 1,000 singles now if you want to but when the album drops, it’s not coming back.Those single releases should have been announced around the time when HIA was still in the top 40.Now it’s too late.Oh well…”too late” is a fact, let’s just hope it won’t be “too little”
And btw, with ALL due respect to both the author of the article and Kelly’s fans, the time to capitalise on the success of ‘Motivation’ was THIS album.Noone can launch their 4th album using the lead single of the 3rd album 😕
I don’t know about keep it between us, it should be heaven and earth. But feeling me right now is a really good song. I think all of the night would have been a great choice too.
Just a little too late 🙁
‘Down 4 Whatever’ would be better than ‘Keep It Between Us’ though.
That said, I am still glad that Kelly is treated right by her label to a certain extent and that they haven’t given up on the album.That’s very good for her 😎
this was tastefully done & said…glad u r #teamkelly…otherwise…lol But u r so rght…my baby aint been able to promote cus she’s in UK…Motivation video came out in April, 6months later here comes “Lay It On Me”
Sigh…I know that there is a saying that goes “better late than never” but in Ms Rowland’s case, “too little too late” is far more applicable. Where was this momentum when the album dropped…or even prior? SMH
The video’s may cause a modest increase in album sales but nothing the in the line of Bruno Mars or Lady GaGa with The Fame.
who is kelly talking about a girl right is it her trainer is she going to take from queen latifah i be seeing her trainer supporting kelly career way more then she support her girl queen latifah even before kelly came in the picture she showed very little support for her what is up
Official Kellyrowland Fansite-omkelly.com says Int’l version of HIA will b available 11/28; sorry 4 d earlier info!
omg.queen kelly rowland is taking over.im so feeling you right now maam
OMFG YESSSSSSSS! It’s about f****** time Kelly Trene Rowland 🙂
Yesssssss Kelly keep turning the heat up, your “MOTIVATION” is such a great song, you put just the right amout of emotions, depth and feelings into that joint and it is one of the greatest R&b songs, ever.
KELLY looks realy s*** in that picture, love the dress, hair
and pose, very muck. Kelly keep the heat turned up, sweety.
Y R lOOKING AND SOUNDING GREAT, LOVE WHERE U R
right now in your career from the magazine covers to your
music and your music videos.
Sunview on don’t know what the hell you are talking about because it’s really not in the loop.
Are you here A&R or something….Kelly lack of promotion push and her retarded production of music videos has nothing to do with Kelly R or the UK X Fact, but it has EVERYTHING to do with her record label…..
Work it Kelly!
Feelin me right now is my favorite song on the album!
I’m just glad she’s continuing to push. This era deserves more than a measley two videos, and I’m happy to hear that there will be at least four singles/videos Stateside; not to mention the singles/videos that will support the projects international release. Kelly has quite the video catalogue now. ANY CHANCE OF GETTING A VIDEOGRAPHY DVD??? That sure would be nice. From her Simply Deep days to now. It could be titled, ‘The Evolution of Kelly Rowland- A Videography’. We need some extra media from this “chick” right about now.
Yessssss! Love them both!!! ‘Turn It Up’ woul’ve been a good choice but i’m happy anyway!!!!
I like “Keep it between us” hope that gets the single treatment also 🙂
“Keep It Between Us” is my favorite song on the album!
But Ima need “All Of The Night” (my other favorite) to be released to Urban radio and also have a video. She’s even said in interviews that that’s a fan favorite so she betta listen to her fans!
Finally/ feeling me right now is my s***!!!!
I agree with you Sam. For whatever reason this project was handled badly here in the U.S. Hopefully, Kelly, her label, and her team can pull it together for the International release, and also for the new album dropping next spring. I’m just happy that they’re going to continue to support this album in the meantime.
If you think about it, Kelly only became relevant as a solo singer this year in the United States. She’s still in the process of growing that fanbase that will go out and pick up her album the week it drops. I can’t wait to see what the future holds in store for her!
Yaaaaaayyyyyyy!!!! I love Keep it Between Us! I can hear that song being played already on the radio over & over & over like Motivation…. I never really trully believed that Lay It On Me would blow up like Motivation did… I’m so happy!
@ danny b
I agree!
yay keep it between us is my ish. hopefully they don’t s*** on the video!
I’m a Beyonce stan of course. But note to Bey & Kelendria: I understand your reasons for doing so, but Do yall see what happens when you X out Mathew Knowles??? Shyt’s all outta order. Just saying.
The other video Kelly should line up and shoot is “Unity”, which her loyal fans have been waiting for. Doesn’t matter how old it is, the song’s a HIT ! Also on her recent Best Of compilation =)
it is too late ..
I will wait till she GIVE BIRTH to the ” down for whatever” MUSIC VIDEO !
That’s mean I will wait for 9 months to see it ! good !
I agree Danny B, say what you want about matthew but he knows how to push a cd, both kely and bey have been all over the place with there cd’s and its direction, Kelly drops her cd then disappears and Bey cant decide on a single to promote and releases 3 video within weeks.
yess ms kelly im soo ready – im raping the replay button on LIOM and whenever i get maxed out on the R&B Kelly i switch over to DANCE Kelly and I fall in love all over again. the fact that she is able to handle both genres so effortlessly is the very reason why im a fan of hers – WOrk!
FINALLY
I agree with some alot of yall on this post. But if one more person say she should release a video for Unity imma knock ya damn head off. LET IT GO Unity is over good grief people that was like 6 years ago let it go…anyway I am really glad that kelly is pushin out videos for this album i really love it and i will be getting the UK version as well…
@ TheMan4u
Matthew aint neva did a danm thang for Kelly’ s solo career! He only ruined it! What u meant to say is that he pushed Destiny’s Child and Beyonce solo albums very well…. Kelly album was suppose to be released later but they had to hurry with everything bcuz of Xfactor! So this album is basically helping her build up her fanbase for the next album. If Kelly ain’t worried about sells than we shouldn’t either! Just make sure u do your part and purchase her music, magazine covers, or whatever it is she’s doing.
IMMMMMMMMMMMM BACKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
\
I DIDNT EVEN KNOW SHE STILL EXISTED./…I MEAN BACK UP LIKE ON THE “LALA SHOW” BUT IN MUSIC
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ’S
THIS SONG SOUNDS LIKE BEYYYYYYY
SOUNDS LIKE SOMEBODY BEEN STUDYING BEY ALOTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!:)
I really like both songs I have the album I love it! I can’t wait for the new videos I hope she works with a new director though.
I’m feeling this!! Work it Kelly!! xXX
Good Job Ms. KELLY ROWLAND…look forward to your videos. They have been good so far. Love all this exposure #teamKelly
It’s a shame that Kelly didn’t utilise the opportunity to really make 2011 work for her. The album so far has FAILED and I don’t like to say that but it’s true. I don’t think she has good direction at all. When interviewed by TGJ Kelly came across all strong and sure that her team were very much behind her and that she wanted people to respect that and stuff about how in Summer many stations are “Black” meaning Off-Air. We are now half way through October and we are JUST getting the 2ND VIDEO for her album? Here I am?
As for the album, she was away for nearly 3 years and 10 TRACKS is all we get!?! You CAN’T be serious! I hope TGJ runs a “Product vs Promotion” piece on K-Row so I can really say what I think about this failure of a an album project we are seeing!
What can i say? Um excited. Feelin me right now has been a fan fav from the beginning. Every1 of my friends and family who listened to HIA picked it as their fav. While keep it between us makes you love your other significant half even better. Vocally powerful and so is feelin md right now. And better yet they are both unique and classy. Guaranteed success!!
THANKS @ MICHELLE … “UNITY” is never old ! The UK and ALL of Europe LOVE this song ! It’s time to release a classic black & white video for this gem <3 <3
With the way Lay it on me is flopping. I only think people were checking for lilwayne on motivation and not kelly. If Lay it on me which is a better song than motivation is flopping then it is clear wayne made that song.
I don’t think Kelly will ever top that success of motivation again and by the way Motivation isn’t as successful as some of you make it to be. It wasn’t top 10 on the main charts, it flopped on pop. Anybody can have an RnB hit.
Even with her s** image, her album is still tanking. I think on her next record it will fail woefully. She shouldn’t get comfortable thinking people feeling her right now.
The reason she has those views on youtube is that she is on the front page.
Arron138, You are right heaven and Earth and Work it man are my favorites from
the album. I hope Kelly make a video for those two singles. I just think Keep
it between us is going to be a s*** video just like Motivation and Lay it on me.
I want to see something different from Kelly with these videos.
YESSIR !!! 🙂
KELLY ALL DA WAY TO THE BANK!!!
RIGHT ON @ TAYLOR J. – “UNITY” by Kelly Rowland is GOLD ! Check the blogs and other stories people ! Even Beyonce and Lady Gaga acknowledged their love for this amazing ballad ! “Unity” is a classic that will last the test of time. Why fight it when it’s the TRUTH ? Kelly’s fans around the world LOVE THIS SONG !
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS KELLY IS SERVING LIFE RIGHT ABOUT NOW. HELLO DIMPLE PUPPET :))
#TEAMKELLY
Good girl Kelly make them video’s WOMAN!!!
HotChocolateDeluxe of a Lady
aww damn, i would rather her have made a video for “all of the night”
@where…what charts have you been looking at….it was not a flop on the charts….stop putting thos lies out there with nothing to back it up….ive been watching charts for a while and its still selling well so stop with the lies…..and anyone can not have a hit on the R&B charts….that is the only chart i look at, BUMP the pop charts…
I can’t have any idea how I finished up listed here, even so thought that organize had been good. I can’t recognise the person you can be but certainly you will a well-known tumblr if however, you are certainly not presently. Best wishes!
