Kelis

Kelis has come a long way since her early days of singing about roller rinks and backing up ODB. After marrying rapper Nas last year, she has become the boss of hip-hop music. Kelis Was Here is a dark and sultry collection that proves she is truly a musical chameleon. “Bossy,” her sexy single, has dominated airwaves this summer, hinting at the success of her latest endeavor. “Appreciate Me,” an R&B ballad in which Kelis demands “you better treat her like a lady,” is sure to be the next big hit.
