Nice.

I love Kelis

Very "commercial" producers, its almost like britney spears "in the zone" record. Just from the producers it seems like a crazy mix of sounds and music styles but that could be the kiss of death, that scott storch is so annoying, he looks like Vanilla Ice and Danny Bonaduce had a kid.

Why does it look like she doing the running man and her body was copied and pasted in different directions?

wow i didn't even notice this at first sight...anyway she looks good and i hope this album doesn't suck. if it does i'll produce her next record, somehow i like her

Wow, I love the album cover. That is hot!! Can't wait for this shit to drop already! Kelis is my bitch!

i like it, reminds me of something from the mid 80s

I'm anxious to hear what Kelis cooks up WITHOUT the Neptunes @ her side. This will be her first fully Neptune-free project.

Kelis defines herself. That's what I like about her. She orchestrates her own sound and style, so I'm definitely curious to see where she takes us.

I like that she's using some pop producers on this record. She does well with different sonic styles.

I'm already getting it.

Crappy album cover!

hmmm Raphael Saadiq is one of the producer's ehh?

Is she coming or going?

It's OK-could be better, but the shoes are cool .

Somebody call the exorcist!

I might be interested since it doesn't seem to be booged down with guest rappers. Shockingly, not even Nas, though. I'm not very fond of "Bossy"...I mean, get the Neptunes, not a soundalike! It still might be an interesting album. I like the cover. She reminds me of a little bit of Catwoman but in those older comics where she wore a dress.

i like it...shes madd cool~my cousin looks like her

I have heard 'LIKE U' and It's awesome. It features the line ."..is he making me hot? or is it his cock..." , the chorus is repetive and catchy it goes something like "..I dont just like u, i like u, like u!.."

I kind like the cover

missfee said:

Yep. So far, the only track I've heard with him from these sessions is "Emergency," but that didn't make the album.

twink69 said:

The track leaked a while ago and that version wasn't too hot. Maybe it's been doctored up like Nelly F's first two singles. Hopefully so.

that album cover is a piece of shit.

photoshop has fucking ruined album art. technology in general is fucking abused in this decade.

I finally heard Till the Wheels Fall Off and that's the Kelis I like. Not feeling Like U at all and can't believe it's going to be the second single. Still hoping there's some hot tracks on there especially with Raphael.

JackieBlue said:

Yeah, "Until The Wheels Fall Off" is HOT. Hope there are more songs like that on the album.

very

Really? I really like it and while not groundbreaking or anything, it's probably my favorite of the year.

sextonseven said:

Man, I wish I knew what the final title of that track will be. "Till The Wheels Fall Off" rolls off my tongue far better than the spec-title that's presently floating around.

She can't sing or rap.
What is it exactly people like about her: oh her looks BINGO

Her swagger.

Her non-conformity.
