STR8 TALK: KELLY ROWLAND’S MAJOR WIN AT BET AWARDS…

LexAve — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 02:07:08 +0000

Rather than do the typical recap of who failed at the BET Awards, we’re turning a new leaf and focusing on the positive. Those mentioned…won! Those not mention…well clearly they failed! lol. Let’s get things started with Kelly Rowland’s killer performance at The BET Awards. Miss Kelly officially became a solo star last night. Not only did she prove why she deserves the solo stardom but she proved Beyonce ain’t the only singing/entertaining sensation. From the sexy choreography to the smooth vocals, Kelly Killed It!

Within minutes twitter world took notice and made Kelly a trending topic. Great to see Kelly wining and getting her long overdue recognition.
SO ON DECK!
Kelly Rowland is definitely winning and to keep her winning streak going here are some suggestions she should consider before the ride comes a screeching hault…
REALITY SHOW- about what you ask? Who cares?…apparently everyone and their mother seems to get one these days…so go go go and make it work!

LOVE LIFE- Kelly needs a new love interest and something that’ll keep gossip folks talking, as that’ll breed more publicity…can’t go wrong with that.

REMIXES- With everyone in the industry remixing her single “Motivation”, Kelly should very much consider jumping on other folks music. That’ll keep her name and fame buzzing.

NEW MUSIC- Hurry up and release a new single…”Motivation” spins on the radio and requests has its days numbered. With Beyonce dropping her new album, Kelly needs to push out some new material ASAP!

MAGAZINE COVERS- With the great success of “Motivation”, Kelly needs to start scoring some glossy covers…NOW!

STR8 VIDEOS: KELLY ROWLAND ft. LIL’WAYNE- “MOTIVATION”

LexAve — Wed, 06 Apr 2011 02:45:55 +0000

Yesterday Kelly Rowland made the rounds to premiere her new ultra sexy video featuring Young Money honcho Lil’ Wayne…entitled “Motivation“. The Sarah Chatfield directed video provides amazing sensual imagery along w/on point choreography. And as much as the video is visually titillating, somehow Kelly Rowland appears to be holding back in both choreography and overall presence. Kelly Rowland has the ability to make love to the camera and despite the slow sexy moves…something is just missing here. Yes, Kelly is beautiful and has an amazing body and good voice…but her sex appeal just doesn’t transcend well in this video. SOMETHING IS MISSING AND I CAN’T FIGURE OUT WHAT. Maybe she just doesn’t have that “IT” factor like Beyonce & Rihanna.

As much as I’m rooting for Kelly to win, she’s just gonna have to come harder. A better song, better hook…Kelly just needs that ONE song to make it pop and it’ll be over. Sorry to say but adding Lil’ Wayne to the track didn’t do much, but just attract more eyeballs…this is definitely NOT a hit! C’mon Kelly I know you can do it…you have all the ingredients, you just gotta mix right. Let’s go and make it KELLY’s year! Either I have hope that the next single Kelly drops will get it poppin’! Looking forward to new third solo album.

STR8 GLOSSY: KELLY ROWLAND GETS COMPLEX!

LexAve — Mon, 27 Sep 2010 21:54:31 +0000

Check out Ms. Rowland getting her model on for the latest issue of Complex Magazine. Even though her new album has been pushed back to 2011, Kelly still going hard on the publicity front…get ‘em Kelly! Doesn’t this chick have flawless skin?! LOVE IT!

NEW VIDEOS: KELLY ROWLAND- “FOREVER & DAY” + “ROSE COLORED GLASSES”

LexAve — Tue, 21 Sep 2010 14:11:12 +0000

Despite recently announcing her untitled album has been pushed back to 2011, the former DC3 member, Kelly Rowland, continues her stride and just premiered to two new videos “Forever & Day” and “Rose Colored Glasses”. “Forever & Day” is her second U.K. single and the latest offering from her third solo album. “Rose Colored Glasses” is more a slow tempo joint set to be a special cut on her new album.

Glad to see Kelly Rowland doing her own thing and nurturing her own stardom and not Beyonces. lol.

STR8 SNITCHIN’: IS MATTHEW KNOWLES KELLY ROWLAND’S FATHER?

LexAve — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 18:09:00 +0000

There are numerous rumors swirling about the Knowles family and their shady ways…including the rumor that Matthew Knowles is Kelly Rowland’s secret father. While at The Beat in Philly, Kelly Rowland clears the air and addresses those rumors. When asked “Is Matthew Knowles really your father?” Kelly said the following….

So there you have it folks…”NO! Matthew Knowles is NOT her father!” That should put all those rumors to rest.
Realtalk, I can’t wait for the day Kelly decides to pen a tell all book about her life behind the Beyonce’s shadow and being a part of the Knowles camp. That ought to be a juicy read.

BEYONCE WORKING ON NEW ALBUM WITH THE DREAM?!

LexAve — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 21:56:09 +0000

Who said anything about a break?! Beyonce might have hinted at slowing down and focusing on other priorities (i.e. Jay-Z & babies), but according to The Dream she’s already working on her new project. No slowing down here for the hardest working chic in the game. In a recent interview, the Grammy-winning musician talked about working on a reality show and helping Rihanna with her next album in addition to hitting studio with Beyonce.

“I’m working on a reality show, I’m working with this girl name Kasha who’s here today. We’ll probably get her album done within the week,” he told Singersroom. “Ciara’s already started on her project ['Basic Instinct']. You know, Rihanna, Beyonce, the same beautiful people every year. It’s a cycle. We’ve gotta get that money.”

If Beyonce gets back in the studio and cranks out more hits…will there ever be a shot for Kelly Rowland to get her shine? #imjustsayin Sit down and chill for a minute…
