According to the ever reliable Kelly-Rowland.net, Grammy Award winning singer Kelly Rowland is wrapping up her as yet untitled Universal Motown debut; yet before doing so, the 28 year old has logged in studio-time with hit-maker Danja!
For those unfamiliar, Danja boasts an impressive production discography, which includes Britney’s ‘Gimme More’, Madonna’s ‘4 Minutes’, Mariah’s ‘Migrate’, Keri Hilson’s ‘Knock You Down’, and Whitney’s ‘For The Lovers’. It pretty much goes without saying that he’s as A-List as a producer will come.
———————————–
It really does seem both Kelly and her new label are going all out to ensure that this project is top-notch, and top-notch it’s appearing to be. With the industry buzzing and the production list looking ever-the-more promising, Kelly (at least on paper) seems to be on to a winner.Collaborating with Danja, more specifically, is something that has been in the works for the better part of two years, and is something Kelly discussed with That Grape Juice way back in 2008. So to see it finally materialising is awesome.
Word has it, Ms. Kelly’s LP will be hitting shelves around May times. We can not wait!
Randomness: Danja also had production credits on Danity Kane’s ‘Welcome To The Dollhouse’ (‘Pretty Boy’, ‘Striptease’, ‘Bad Girl’), which is conceptually what I’m envisioning Kelly’s project to be like (an Urban/Pop/Dance) fusion). If anything on that wavelength, we’re in for a treat!

she will flop,nobody checking for kelly
Get it Kelly!! Can’t Wait..
I wouldn’t say the industry is buzzing over her. I mean come on. Anyway good luck to her.
wow i love this pic..when did she take this, the attitude and everything loves it.
Danja is a good producer, it,s obvious kelly,s team is not playing this time around. now how long are we going to wait for a single..i,m suspecting she,s dropping one in March.
again with that pose..love it, love the fashion. get em kells
Ima cry my lil eyes out if she flops!! But I have faith in this girl…she can do it!! cant wait to buy the album!!Kelly knows she gotta come hard this time around!! im rooting for her and ci ci
This might just be her year.
get it Kelly!!!
wishing her all the best!
This is going to be Kelly’s year, indeed! I get more and more excited each day.
The producer list for this album is just LOCO!
I think her album will see the way Keri Hilson’s did, and all the people tired of Beyonce may buy her record just because. I hope she gets a lot of success with this next LP! I am hoping Michelle will get the success she deserves when she drops her next album. =)
Yesss danja!!!good luck to Kelly
@ jammy i think people bought Keri Hilsons album because of her single choices, she had great singles put out…pple weren,t checking for her earlier but the consistency of good singles made pple buy her album, i think kelly will need to put out great singles, and the promo has to be 100% pple are curious as to what she will bring to the table and if she delivers they will support her. i,ll support her regardless cos i,m a fan and she is yet to dissapoint me.
YESSSS!!!! Kelly got the haters up early this morning. I hope ya’ll report to ya’ll real jobs as ya’ll do to this one. Anyway, 2010 is Kelly Rowland’s year so fall way back . I’m excited this album, and I can’t wait to hear the first single. and to buy my three copies of the album. She’s coming so hold on tight.
That outfit is the business! I wish Kelly nothing but the best.
A very good look. Kelly has been wanting to work with Danja for a long time now and his production will compliment her new direction perfectly. I have a feeling they’re going to make magic together.
hot.
go kelly.;)
to the lame that said she’ll flop no ones checking for her..
your wrong proof is in the pudding for someone who no ones interested in people
sholl keep her name in their mouths you felt the need to bring your happy ass on her post and comment and my how funny! that you happen to be the first to comment anyway
I think once kelly hit the studio with danja she might just let him wrap up the album I bet he’ll be the closer to the album he’s just that GOOD!
can’t wait for the album kelly
whoa truly this is kelly’s year. she is really working so hard and all we can do is support her.
kelly is definitely on fire. i love u kelly

well yeah MISS KELLY baby…i can’t wait for the single and album..i’m going to buy it nomatter what..yeah ……
I’m ready for her to drop a single…..so I can really celebrate!
wow at all the talent thats wrapped up in this project – there is no way ms kelly can fail – she needs 5 successful singles from the album. a world tour starting with europe and the uk first and def austrailia to stack the chips up and then come over to the midsise areans and awared shows and the the house of blues – get shyt really poppin and major MAJOR PROMO – she needs to be shoved down our throats!!! with a set plan and set singles with no push backs or anything like that she should be fine – after this album she should be ready for a rerelease or evn a second album the next year followed by another tour to make sure that she soldfys her spot and win more awards on her own merit!!! lol ms kelly better work!!!
I can’t wait, Kelly we all are very excited and praying for you. This must be your year and we want to you to come and stay. WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree that she is really going hard with the Production List, I hope that her New Label it better suited to pick SIngles that reach a Wide Audience. I think with Each Album she has been gradually improving as an Artist but also with Each Album I think the Best Potential Radio Friendly Singles were not picked and that’s what needs to happen this time around.
Also if she wants to Actually Achieve this Full Blown International Pop Status that “Sam and Trent” try to force on us readers then she needs to Step it Up with being Consistent in live vocal showing, do a lot of U.S. Promotion and Interviews and do a Major Promo Tour otherwise this album will be another one with a Long Shelf life and at this point with Beyonce bringing World Records Daily this is Make or Break for Kel’s to etch out her own Solo Spot in the industry!
Wishing Kelly success, but when are they going to promote or release songs from the album, I mean its Feb now. Thats what hurt a lot of singers, no publicity on the album and for those who don’t read gossip sites, they wouldn’t even know that Kelly actually has an album coming out. Hope she does well, don’t understand why others like to see people fail.
Love the red and how it brings contrast to the outfit.
I’M SOOO READY FOR THIS ALBUM!!!
I can’t speak for anybody else,but for me,Kelly Rowlands album is the album that I am most anticipating for the year 2010. It’s been a while since I’ve been this excited about an album. I can’t wait for the singles. I can’t wait for the videos. I can’t wait for the live performances. I’m just excited about what Kelly will be serving up this time around. I love the fact that she’s been working on this album since early 2009 and NOTHING has leaked. She’s wrapping the album as we speak and there’s still such mystery surrounding it. I for one think that’s great. I know how big Kelly is on surprising people and I think were all in for a BIG surprise.
I think EVERYONE is going to be in for a big surprise with this album. She has assembled an ARMY of producers to ensure that she has at least 2 hits off that damn album. I’m glad for her. Its about time she gets some credit. She contributed alot to DC and alot of her work goes unnoticed. Its a shame. She’s a damn good singer and certainly not any worse than any of the clowns out today. I don’t think she has anything to prove necessarily because she just had a worldwide hit. Not many people have one in their entire music catalog. My biggest fear though is that people are jacking that sound right now. Everyone wants to do something Electro. But I’m sure Guetta left her some sick tracks. She is the reason why he is so famous right now like it or not. “When Love Takes Over” was his first mega hit and then “I got a Feeling.”
With her signing to Universal Mowtown she is supposed to front the label. I’m sure alot of money will be pumped into her. And its about time. Matty Knowles barely pumped a dollar into the poor girl. She did what would happen to any artist with promotion so poorly like that and that is flop. She seems to be really focused now though. I notice she has been spotted at many parties and events lately. Its good for her to get her face out there. She seems like a really nice girl and I wish her all the success.
P.S. That promo pic is off the hook. She is killing that look. That outfit is the business!!
Is Kelly still with Mathew because if so FLOP FLOP FLOP
FLOP again Ms.Kelly , the wig n dress game is a mess im just sick of her “When love takes over ass” once I seen her sing that song live she sounded a mess screaming the song out of her noise that’s what she gets for hanging out around Brandy Norwood IMMA SING out my nose ASS. Even Letoya is better than her.
Ughhhh where’s Beyonce.
For some reason she reminds me of Ciara…and that maynot be good…
Anyway good luck on the album…
Yes b**** just punch these other h*** with your hot new album. Gowrl I can not wait for Ms. Kelly. . .. . .I hear the 1st single is coming first of March & I hope the rumors of it being an EPIC uptempo are true hunny! I just hope Kelly gets it right this time w/ promo, s** appeal, right singles, amazing live performances, & etc. She needs to bring it & hard because nobody except for Lady GaGa is really serving the kids what we need. . .. .I want Kelly to be up for 10 Grammys next years so go get em’ gowrl!
Man Im so excited for her!
Its been a LONG time coming and I know shes hungry for success.
I pray that she gets it and more. Good luck Kelly!
Please bring something NEW to the table love u lots

WASHED UP WRINKLED ASS!
This lady is about to shut it down, I can feel it in my bones, so exciting, and I can tell she’s hungry, and by that talent speaks for itself , putting out great music equals worldwide success, take your time Kelly this is your year, and I’m your number 1 fan minus being delusional lol, and. To the haters I think y’all real nervous right now, I would be too Kelly is about to slayy!!!!!!!
i can’t wait!!!! and her picture looks fab
She is gonna slay & the other fans/stans are mad, but sit y’all asses down!
I wonder if Kelly ever visits this blog. She has alot of supporters here. Ofcourse there are those people who have nothing nice to say but who cares about them. The majority of these posts are positive or constructive and it would really do Kelly some good to see how many people are excited about all of the new things that are going on in her life right now. New year. New management. New label. New music. New man?(well,one may wonder).
This is going to be the year of Kelly Rowland.
Hey Sam, Do you think you’ll be able to do another interview with our girl? Lord knows I have questions I’d like answers to. This is the perfect time to try and get an interview with her because once her promo schedule picks up she may not have time for a blog interview.
Miss Kelly WILL NOT flop! I just know shes going to shut it down for the haters!
I looked at that promo shot and my wig automatically flew off my head LOL, and that’s the same effect she’s gonna have on sooooo many others. Kelly is already shuttin’ it down even without a single so I beg of you, HOLD ON TO YOUR WIGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m lovin this promo pic of her, she looks gorgeous! Good luck Kelly !
I just heard UNITY on the radio … love this song by Kelly Rowland !!! 2010 is Kelly’s moment to shine ~ get ready world ! Good things happen to GREAT people 😉
I am EXCITED!!!! Glad Kelly finally got in the studio with Danja. This album seems to really be shaping up nicely. I pray we get at least 12 or 13 tracks. However, I keep wondering when is Kelly going to finish recording. Let’s rap this album up. I want a single and video out LOL. I’m going to promote the hell out of Kelly lol.
I am so excited Kelly is going to come out with some great new music I can’t wait. I love that promo pic Kelly has the perfect body!!!!!!!!!!!
@Areis —>How many producers does Kelly need?? Damn, who is she REALLY competing with? She needs to stop singing out of her nose and find the CONFIDENCE in herself to come out with a hit…
^^^ Glad Kelly has some haters!! Keep her name in ya mouth….WE LIKE!!
Kelly has more supporters than haters, that’s why they have to falsely duplicate themselves. Amber=Areis. Nice try though. Kelly 2010. Let’s get it!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can’t wait for Ms KElly to hittt !!!!
YES SHE DO HAS ALOT OF LOVE HERE AND TO THE B**** THAT SAID SHE WILL FLOP AND NO ONES CHECKING 4 HER BUT U R I C U ON HERE AND NO MATTER WAT U SAY UR GOING TO DOWNLOAD OR BUY THE CD SO SHUT!
Kelly NEVER sings out of her nose. That girl is the epitome of a diaphram singer. Kelly can blow,and this year this new album of hers is going to blow up. I can’t wait for her to get this party started.
Love the colors!
