Kelly Rowland is 27. What does Mathew Knowles have to do with her minimal record success? You guys act like she has no control over her career! She looks cute...the clips in the vid were moving quite fast though. MJB looks the way she always looks. OMG...I love Raheem. He has been doing this for a while. Finally he gets noticed!

Kelly's "Work" is actually one of my favorite songs of the album. They should've made a feistier clip with some killer choreography, not this dull ish. It may not give credibility, but it could've made a hit. She kinda need one.

Raheem. *swoon* SUCH a talented dude.

kelly seems like such a sweet girl, and its sad that her career is being tossed aroung the way it is, i think she is prettier than bey but she doesnt have that evil-glint-in-the-eye that bey has, and i think thats why we keep watching bey cuz u just never know wat bitch is gonna bring to the table but with kelly its predictable.the minute kelly adds a bit more attitude to her persona, she'll be huge.

[quote comment="17410"]I don't think the Knowles are to blame for Kelly's lack of success. It's not their fault she lacks star quality as a solo artist. At the end of the day I think that's really all it's about. In my opinion, even if Kelly were introduced to the world without being in Destiny's Child and in Beyonce's shadow, her career would still be mediocre. It probably wouldn't even exist.[/quote] mimi, I totally agree with this 100%!!! Kelly is great and all, but as part of a group, she's not a solo act, it just doesn't work for her. And not only is this song stupid, she sounds stupid singing it, her voice is so mundane. I feel really sorry for Kelly.

Watching Kelly's video was excrutiating to say the least.It'a been there done that kind of video and Lord knows all these videos are alike. She looks good, but it's boring just like the song. I agree, Kelly just doesn't have that "wow" factor. I also think it's because Daddy Knowles did not want to promote her back in tha day. How many records has she sold...two?

wow....me loves d MJB song.

she does look fab. btw i compared the vid to wat B wud do coz they both managed or watever by B's dad. Not coz i think they're joined to the hip! lol

[quote comment="17655"]Ok ya'll I've read the comments and it boils down to 2 key things ok. 1)Beyonce and her family are some shady characters and Kelly ain't. Look back wasn't Kelly's album supposed to drop before Beyonce's (Yes) and didn't the heifer run to the studio and record a whole lot of shit in 2 weeks tied a bow on it and called it B'Day (Yes). And in 2007 when Kelly was ready to drop her album because B'Day was dying down the bitch went ahead and released a Deluxe Edition of the same album months before Ms. Kelly's release (Yes). Beyonce is Shady because of the following... The BET Awards wasn't her ass half way around the world doing her horrible show (B, I want my time and money back) only to fly back and up stage Kelly at the awards and "Join" Performances? (Think About It) Than there was the Ms. Kelly Tour that was supposed to go down and suddenly pushed back to next year. 2) Beyonce whites up her music way more than Kelly ever would. Speaking as someone who works in the music industry if you look at today's trends R&B music has gotten so watered down it's basically pop/dance music. Listen to Ms. Kelly and listen to B'Day. Ms. Kelly has elements of Jazz, Fusion, Funk and Contemporary music, while B'Day is a whole lot of chicken head anthems. The sooner people get off the whole Beyeonce's doin better than Kelly listen to the quality of each of their solo works and tell me you cannot agree with what I've said.[/quote] Hmmmm, you talk some sense there :) Good luck to her.

Umm...you got a beyonce vibe? try Amerie!

this wasn't about the underaged chick, it was about the fan tossing.

I love Kelly, but heres an idea for ya....GET NEW MANAGEMENT

botango.... um so ur saying kelly sanging. mary j keyshia cole and letoya were successful and they are not watered down. kelly even said herself she is not on top of everything. she is not doing pop, but her rnb stuff is whack, sheeee is wack. i've seen perfeormances where beyonce and michelle would be tearing a song to peices, kelly is only good for alto harmony. she is not driven...driven people dont call ex bandmates for thier opinion on thier songs/ album... she has not grown as an artist. she needs to sit back. michelle is making moves on broadway,, owning wnba teams and everything. kelly is doing nothing, she acts like she cant move without saying knowles. alot of you just hate on beyonce for any and every reason you can find. lyrics.... no because you still can find an audience of people who enjoy real music. and botango... beyonce incorporates different styles of music into hers... so whats ur point. and anyone can say they work in the industry... also,kelly wasnt doing her own tour, she was opening for AKON.

I don't think anything can save Kelly's album as far as sales go. She may prove me wrong though, but I doubt it.

lol@ MFox.. [quote comment="17951"]All Kelly's dresses are hot, but the truth is she's never going to be a star working that same old Destiny's Child sexy and sassy angle because Beyonce was the reason anybody ever listened to DC's tired tripe. And, it's a sad hard truth, but it is absolute fact that looks can get you places that a good voice, alone or even star power NEVER COULD. Kelly does the same sort of trashcan pop/R&B she did with the group, that's not going to work unless people aren't actually listening to the vapid trash you're spewing...With Beyonce, she can sing about love being like a perm that's been on too long and won't take because who's really listening? They just want her to shake her a** in the videos and in concert. They don't want that from Kelly. So, doing what she does (which is the DC thing NOT the Beyonce thing) will NEVER work. Just as Brandy's handlers new that "Afrodisiac" single wouldn't work here (because ding* ding* nobody finds Brandy sexy here) and only released it overseas.[/quote] I agree...100% And no one does find brandy sexy here.. Poor Kelly...The video was nice..but it was lackluster and a late.

lovin the kelly rowland video. i hope she leave bey's dad and gets herself a real manager so ppl will stop sleepin on her acting like she can't sang and ish

I'm not a hater, but I immediately felt B throughout the Kelly vid. I've always been a fan of Kelly and I know she and B worked 2gether for many years, but she has to pick up her own style that works otherwise she won't get big like B. Can't blame it all on Papa Knowles ... Also, I love Mary & Usher but I think I need to give this song a little more play ...

I love Kelly and feel that the Knowles family really diss her. I would hope that she will get a new manager and leave them alone. As long as she stays with the Knowles, her career is on hold. she's a pretty sista, has talent and deserve better. meanwhile Bey is recording songs with Justin T. I wish she would get a pillow and sit down.

kelly SHUD B A MODEL MARY LOOKS SO NICE THESE DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kelly looks good... Like the video

mjb & user, raheem. me likey

Ms. Kelly wasn't all that bad, it just did not get pumped up right.

Work sounds like a Beyonce throw away song. Kelly is super gorgeous. She just hasn't found her niche. She should find another genre diff from DC and Bey and run with it. She is talented, maybe not a writer, but a singer and if she flipped the scripped did some tunes with Anthony Hamilton or Raheem Davaughn that would take her in an entirely diff direction. She needs new producers... heck even T-Pain would hook up some hot ish for her.

The video is cute. She looks really pretty in it. The song is nice also
