It’s here!
The video for Kelly Rowland‘s latest EU single ‘Down For Whatever’ premiered moments ago.
Check out the Sarah Chatfield and Frank Gatson directed clip after the jump!
Though not groundbreaking, the clip captures the essence of the song well, and visually further’s Kelly’s position as a legitimate chart force. We like. Do you?
[polldaddy poll=5595436]
The video is wayyyyyyy better than Lay It On Me IMO
This is a LQ version, not the oficial release, but the look its AMAZING! I can’t wait to see the HQ version!
This is better than Lay It On Me but its still something missing; She has noooo start quality ! She’s boring .. [shrugs]
haters are gonna come in hard on this one. I have been hearing about another comparison, but keep in mind that it is the same director once again. & Kelly shouldn’t use her again!!!!!
Besides that the video is sickkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk i love it and the song! kelly is a barbie! she needs her own doll foreal
Love it
“No star quality”? Never that. She just lacked self belief but shes getting there though.
Much prefer this to Lay it on me. Seductive, fun and classy without being forced.
Get it girl! Work!
KELLY ROWLAND COPYING AGAIN http://twitpic.com/72bq4b http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8oJevymxSg&ob=av2e
lt was alright,l onder if she is signed to Parkwood Ent cause she is releasing as much vid as her her fellow DC member.
l am tired of electro;usher,rihanna,jason and kelly kill yourself
Bought the album today. I love it. Can’t wait for the next 2 videos of my favorite cuts. Finally, this girl is delivering. She came a loooooooooooooooooooooooooong way
OMG! Did I see Kelly with Beyawnce’s wig in her hand???? YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSS!!!
This Wynter Gordon comparison can suc balls. Kelly been used lights, wigs whilst and dancing around on the “Work” video. Maybe Kelly should point fingers at anybody using glow/neon lights and dancing with different wigs on.
Beat it with this comparison mess.
I second maddswag- this b**** has arrived this year
Say what you will, but dumping Matthew has been the best move of her career. Its all about rebuilding her self. Haters will hate, but Kelly ain’t stopping. Im rooting for her this era. Poor Michelle…
YEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!
I’m here for this …
This will SMASH in Europe I like the song too the video cute waaay better then lay it on me
ill reserve my full judgement until i c an hq clip but i like it – she giving a lil britney (gimmie flashing light but ms kelly is serving life – its kinda like “WORK 3.0” and i loved that song and video as i do with this one and the constrast between LIOM and DFW still astounds me – 2 totally diff genre and 1 beautiful star tackling both with such ease – keep it up kelendria
THIS IS KELLY FUKKIN ROWLAND?!
GOOD JOB.
The Kelly haterz are probly slitting thier rist right now!!!!!!
SHE DID IT ON EM
This is clearly a leak and clearly shows that she is in demand. I definitely prefer this song over Lay it On Me.
Will wait for HQ version. But with the still pics I know the video is banging!!! She put it down!!!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Ms. Kelly bought me what I wanted. I aint mad no more. She killed on tour. Killin on Xfactor. Motivation will be in my memory as my summer 2011 jam. I must admit. Slow ass promotion on the cd for most people means good songs that nobody will ever hear, and you telling me that this album will have 5 videos. I aint mad no more. Kelly is an artist. A survivor, in a world of haters.
She aint even tryna be barbie like these clowns try to claim. She is a barbie. Black is beautiful honey! WoRk!
hellooooooooooo you go Kelly!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kelly>>>>>>>BLEACHonce 😉
She slaaaaayed go in Kelly let have…. I like both this and LIOM…. I’m ready for her to release feelin me right now and each other #teamrowland
@therealchrisbrown & boss b**** 1 check your avatar they are the same with different names.
I F***** LOVE IT CANT WAIT TO SEE IT IN HQ…SHE BETTER PROMOTE THE S*** OUTTA THIS SONG…
Slaying already I cant wait for the HQ!!!
I love this song, since day1 of the album release! THE VIDEO IS CUTE, but has the same issue Janet’s FEEDBACK had, it is TOO DARK, u can barely see anything & that annoys me, I understand the fading & colors they are goign for, BUT sometimes it is nice to see her, she is gorgeous & she NEEDS TO DANCE MORE!!! it is better than lay it on me video (which is cute), BUT IT was boring, she needs to dance dance dance!!!
She Copy Wynter Gordon http://youtu.be/YEC7nis0FU8
this video slays
I vote Miss, because you can’t see s*** in the video. I hate the song. its so pop. I liked Motivation and Lay It On Me better. They were R&B songs.
How many of you notice that Kelly is just as good as Beyonce when she does R&B and sucks when she does Pop. (No shade)
Doing Dance/Pop nearly killed her career. She needs to keep doing her R&B thang and she may one day have a Platinum album. (No shade)
Love the song.. hate the video
This s*** is wack.
Kelly can dance her ass off.
I’m not sure why she doesn’t dance anymore.
This video would’ve been much better with
Some kind of dance break
yassssss. this was nice. i can’t wait for an HQ version – i think the video made me like the song even more!
Love it love love it lovvvveeeeeeee it. Hot song
SHE CONTINUES TO COPY JANET JACKSON’S STYLE AND SWAG SMH!
THE VIDEO IS CUTE, but has the same issue Janet’s FEEDBACK had, it is TOO DARK, u can barely see anything & that annoys me, I understand the fading & colors they are goign for, BUT sometimes it is nice to see her, she is gorgeous & she NEEDS TO DANCE MORE!!!
————————————————————————————————————————
Exactly! I’m going to sound like the hater in the bunch, but this video has me scratching my head. I thought it was way to dark as well. I truly love Janet , but that was my issue with Feedback as well. The darkness takes away from everything IMO. I also thought Kelly was rather lazy in this video too. Where is the choreography? I didn’t even need a hard core dance routine, but all she did was pose. If this was a handful of other artist this video would be considered weak!
Now, I’m puzzled with Kelly because Commander was Feedback part 2, Motivation live was Janet’s IGSL. Now this is what??? … a tribute to Wynter Gordon? Is Kelly paying homage to her 2010 video? I don’t get what is going on with Kelly. I’m not a fan, but I’m not bashing her either. I just truly don’t understand. Then all the people that praise this, yet tear down other artist that don’t go to this extreme of copying another artist really puzzle me. I can’t say I love this song or video very much. I I hope Kelly do better in the future.

GahLi, the QUEEN K is killin me, she KEEP ON SLAYIN!!! 🙂
Is this from TV screen in Europe of is it a straight online leak? I really feel illegal watching it…

ONCE AGAIN, KELLY IS SWAGGER JACKING ANOTHER CHICK’S VIDEO. SHE SWAGGER THE ALL VIDEO CONCEPT FROM WYNTER GORDON . POOR KELLY

*YAWN*
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtCVr9O7j9E
Whenever I see blacklights and videos now, all I think of is the bridge in “SuperBass”
Sorry
ohh my …..hearth
i love the song , the beat yes yes yes
and i want so much see a good version, to see a dance routine, it’s appear very good
wait to dance in night club, shake my hips and ass and breast hihihii
HATERS SHE SHOT THIS VIDEO THE SAME TIME SHE DID LAY IT ON ME. BY THE SAME DIRECTOR. SO KELLY ISN’T STEALING OR JACKING ANYTHING.!!! BUT SHE NEEDS TO HAVE A CHAT WITH THAT DIRECTOR SARAH.
WHY ARE PEOPLE ALWAYS COMPLAINING. AND @S*** U MAD, WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM? IF YOU DON’T LIKE IT, GO WATCH YOUR GOD’S VIDEO ->LOVE ON TOP–>WHERE YOUR FAV IS ALWAYS JACKING OTHER PEOPLE’S WORK–>NEW EDITION–>I GUESS SHE WAS INSPIRED BY THEM TOO..
Haters
ok just because its a dance video it doesnt mean she has to dance ala When Love Takes Over…no dancing at all and its her biggest dance song to date – she danced in Work, Commander, Forever and a Day and What A Feeling so she has danced enough – shes supplying us with a hot dance song for us to make up our own dance moves to plus how many of you really break out a full 32 count in a crowded ass club….I MEAN REALLLY! Just enjoy the videos and sit back and let ms kelly do her thing!
I liked it….. i need to see a a better version. But who cant love Kelly. She’s awesome.
Frank Gatson old a** needs to go…..
NOTICE HOW KELLY’S VIDEO’S THIS ERA LOOK LIKE THEY COST A ALOT MORE THEN THESE CHEAP VIDEO’S BEYONCE PUTS OUT DAMN NEAR EVERY OTHER DAY….
**SIDE BAR**
THIS VIDEO LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING RIHANNA WOULDV’E DONE.
@HOOD_STAR
JANET JACKSON IS THE QUEEN OF DANCE… KELLY CAN BE PRINCESS:-)
It was okay..nothing special…may cause epilepsy…though !
feels like i was watching avatar though !
@SHESBUMB
I WOULD GO AS FAR TO SAY THAT KELLY OUT RIGHT COPYRIGHT”S “JANET JACKSON”, BUT SHE IS MOS DEF INSPIRED BY JANET A LOT IN THIS ERA’S VIDEO’S… ESPECIALLY N THAT VIDEO 4 “COMMANDER”… IT LOOKED LIKE “FEEDBACK”.
lol @jermaine ur right – i stan for janet – HARD – KELLY IS DEFINENTLY A PRINCESS! ie future queen of DANCE MUSIC!!!!
@SHESDUMB
IM SORRY>>> I MENT TO SAY… “I WOULD’NT GO AS FAR AS TO SAY KELLY KNOWINGLY COPYRIGHTS JANET…..”.
Kelly is the future queen of dance music ?
The video definitely is hott! I actually like the song & video better then Lay It On Me! I just hope a better quality is released! I wish TGJ could have waited for the final verision to be released gooossshhh……
All you fucken hatting ass people need to step the hell back. YASSSSSSSUHHH lord jeezzzuzzz….that gurl! Werk em K!
I have always loved her dance music! All of my KR singles are her dance-pop tracks. I didn’t even know this track existed. Def will be buying, and the vid is real nice.
OMG am i the only person who accidentally started singing ON THE FLOOR to this beat? it sounds just like JLO!
This video is very low quality and fuzzy. I’m glad that this a EU single, because this single absolutely does nothing for me, and I love dance pop!
Kelly you better werk!!!! Love this song and the video was hot.
DId y’all the Lay It On Me video is already #1 on R&B iTunes chart. Keep purchasing!!! Let’s support the QUEEN and let her KEEP SLAYIN!!! 🙂
Thanks to all the supporters n the haters (undercover supporters, lmfao 🙂 )!!!
down for whatever could tear up the pop radio, lay it on me, maybe urban radio, but she has a hit on her hands if she promotes the song, they could could issue a re release!!
FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER @HONEY_DIP11 I FOLLOW BACK!
YESSS MS Kelz!!!!!…You better tear that European chart!
Can’t wait to see the HQ version.
So far I think the Motivation video has been the best from this era. And I like the Motivation video, but I don’t love it. I don’t know, I just think she should be dancing more on this and the Lay It on Me video. I also want to see a video from her with an actual storyline. I want Kelly to give me an amazing, original video that I want to watch over and over, and she hasn’t done it yet. But I’m still hoping! Bring on Feelin Me Right Now and Keep It Between Us!
sorry Kelly , but this vid is lame. it is cute in a way but it is lame in a way 🙁 , u can feel it even in SAM’s description !
that was my fav song in the album and it was ruined by this 5$-budget vid :(.
anyway , good luck Kelly !!
I really love the song, but it was kinda cheesy and reminded me of scenes from a gay bar. And I didn’t think any of the outfits were cute. It had a 90’s vibe..
This is a boss track and one that I regularly have on repeat. I won’t speak on the video since it is a low quality mess. I’ll reserve my judgment up until the video makes its way to VEVO.
Not bad. She should do more dancing though. This is a quality dance track and it deserves a video of the same caliber. Not bad even in its LQ state.
I like!
This video is embarassing.The only good thing about this entire video is KELLY herself.Backed by a horrible song, poor lyrics, cheesy beat with disgusting similarities to all the other Red One-produced tracks, corny dance routine and a massively low budget, KELLY is the video’s ONLY saving grace.It’s disappointing.I hope it’s not the final video because this is lacklustre… 😕
YES BISSHHHH!!!! you better f****** do it…. KELENDRIA TRENE ROWLAND you are working and it shows.. i would have wanted more DANCING though but THIS is definitely a step up from your videos for the MS KELLY album era… HONESTLY all her music videos this era have bloody slayed… YES TRENE get it
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vJthZst5tQ&feature=channel_video_title the HQ is out!…..it is quite amazing!
I love it..it’s like work video 2.0 …….Loving the new improved Miss Kelly..get that
After p*** Lay it on me it looks better but i see some Kelis similarities. The beat is exactly the same as one used in “On The Floor”. Kelly where is your oryginality? 🙁
Having seen the HQ version of the clip I have to say that I am in love. Like Sam said, the visual is not groundbreaking but it serves its purpose. The song is still one of the best songs this year. I fcuking love this song.
S/N: The video director is not doing Ms. Kelly any favours. It seems like each and every single one of Kelly’s video’s has been a rehash of another artists previous video. This damn director needs to get her shyte together.
kelly needs to stop working with that video director… and then speaking of the video i wish she would have danced with the dancers cause the HQ shows that the moves were hot… i just wished that she was doing it with em cause whenever she was dancing they cut her off KMT…
anyway and for these fools saying that she now copied nicki minaj cause of the glow paint.. really though?? so nicki also copied teyara mari and busta since they did that way before her.. smh!
speaking of the video it’s not ground breaking like someone said above but it serves it’s purpose… she will probably kill it at the live performance on xfactor.. that’s all i need!
I like the visuals but shes giving me Rihanna kinda moves with the modelling and posing. Why these chicks dont wanna dance in dance-type music IDK! I truly respect Beyonce for that, for giving me so much dance, more dance than I would expect.
It was awright, ok for me.
Besides Motivation, its F&AD that slays for me and going to listen to right NOW! Imma have to go back to looking @ old DC vids for some slaying moves. Sorry Kells.
I like the “Down For Whatever” video. It helps me enjoy the track more. Keep the videos coming Ms. Kelly.
flop
looks like kelly rowland sold her soul to the illuminati and this is not r&b this tecno b******* with gay men dancing in the background !
ok kelly is trash and her cd is not a winner. the singers today are not r&b they sing b******* like this.
i wonder why they dont release this as a single in the US?
SO MUCH FOR NOT SELLING S**
So nobodies gonna ask? Guess I will, Kelly where were your videos when your album debuted? I’m mad, like wtf?
Kelly has a market to cater to and in europe this is the sound that has done very very well for her.
Nice video
Body is on point.
Song is decent with her tone.
Looking forward to her next video(s) for Feeling Me Right Now & Keep It Between Us.
Kelly is premium sexual chocolate galaxy smooth.

(Meh…)
“Down for whatevah…?!!”
..HEY KELLY!! ..How ’bout you be “down for selling some CDs”? Now, after some 9-weeks, ‘Here I am'(not) has only moved less-than 180K U.S. Retail Units.
“Oh, Kelly is planning something big; something new!” “Oh, she’s just getting started!” <–O~o ..Just how much more "spin" can we take?
..She's a 30-something-year-old whose been "in the game" now for some 20-years. She's NO 'Spring Chicken': If she hasn't ALREADY "started" she never will….!!!!!!!
Wasn't it "Producer Extraordinaire" 'Polow Da Don' who said (to paraphrase) "Artists reach their peak/prime by 25-years-of-age"? Yup, it sure was!
30-Something-Year-Old Kelly Rowland's "better years" are now (nearly) a decade behind her: 2002 "Simply Deep" – 77K-First Week, 600K U.S. total, and 2-Million WW. Even then, after ALL that was spent on promotion, and he heaps of "public DC break-up" sentiment, lavished upon it, 'Simply Deep' fell far-below expectation and disappointed badly!!
But, 30-Something-Year-Old Kelly Rowland, being the lacking, disappointing, "square-peg that's constantly being forced into that round hole" is precisely why SHE was a part of that best-selling, most-loved 'girl groups' of A-L-L time: DC!
..You see, Matthew Knowles, is NOT a man to gamble; he took NO chances! He surrounded HIS "Headlining/Solar-Flare Shine/Hard Working/Willing-To-Learn" daughter with the two dimmest lamp-lights he could find: Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams.
..So you think I'm hating, do you? Oh, do you?!?! ..K, so what have they BOTH done since DC?? Didn't, said mentioned, 30-Something-Year-Old Kelly Rowland not recently FIRE Matthew Knowles? Didn't she THEN, going into the 'Here I am' release, summon, then marshalled formidable "Anti-Beyonce/Dark-skin Sista-Girl" sentiment..?? ..RIGHT!! And then, with "the deck cleared," and said mentioned, "winds at her back," what did she do with it? ..SHE FUMBLED THE BALL, that's what!!
KELLY ROWLAND IS A LOSER! Chris Brown set his tour back, by months, by having her on that tour! She's just a SORRY-A** LOSER! She'll NEVER WIN! 30-Something-Year-Old KELLY ROWLAND IS A FAILURE..!!
When it's NOT her supposedly estranged, neglectful father, it's her "being in Beyonce's shadow"! And then, when THAT "fails," she THEN resorts to her "kling-klang harangue" of "self-doubt" on "being dark-skinned".
Let us ALL now just recognize her for what she is: "Marginally-Talented Ingrate!"
Let us ALL now, rise to our collective feet, and give her a round of applause – as she's now "wheeled" towards the exit, and off the Pop-Culture Landscape Stage!
Good Luck *cough*riddance*cough*, Kelly!!
X,Y,"and Z" – "Call me..ISHMAEL"
I love the song actually, i love the entire CD but these videos are still under par. She needs to step her video game up!
Love this song and video! I like dance music and R&B/Urban, so I’m very happy with Down for Whatever and Lay it on me 😀 can I order both CD’s somewhere? Hug from Holland!
I think she looks absolutely fantastic and there is nothing wrong with the video
I like Lay it on me, Down for Whatever and then Motivation. my favorite song on the whole disc is “B’tween Us” and “work it man”
X Y and whatever… You’re a hater plain and simple. Only you’re a hater of the worst kind, who spends as long as you did typing up an essay about someone they don’t like seriously get a life.
P.S her American sales don’t matter because she isn’t targetting the American audience not everything is about America. Kelly Rowlands target audience is europe, Mainly U.K where she is yet to release the reworked album, which btw will smash the charts here and Down for whatever will go straight to Number 1 IN HER TARGETTED COUNTRY, which is and always has been the u.k.
I LOVE THIS VIDEO! Kelly looks amazing and this is one of my favorite songs off the album. I am a true R&B head but when Kelly sings dance music it just does something for me. Yesss Kelly I keep clicking repeat on youtube!
P.S as a Kelly Rowland fan I refuse to argue with people who do not matter. People have opinions let them talk, because at the end of the day they are only making her more famous.
Kelly Rowland is hot & anyone who thinks otherwise doesnt matter to me! LOL
Nice video & I like song, but I think the video would’ve been even better if she danced a full, non-interrupted dance routine, either by herself or with her male dancers … this video was begging for that!!!
BEAUTY=SICK,BEAT=SICK, VOCALS VOCALS VOCALS=SLAYED EM! Kelly don’t f*** round gurl, let them have it…. the whole brunt end of it mama!!
Why kelly gotta hav all these green screen/white room videos with flashy lighting and all.. why not have a real scene, something that would suit the song i.e. in a club.
and BIATCH be swagger jacking nicki minaj superbass video in the bridge with the body paint and grinding all up on them men..
this video is ok but look up Wynter Gordon and look at her videos and see if you see a similar video
