“Writing and recording Ms. Kelly has definitely been a learning process,” the young artist offers. “And I like that it was.

About Ms. Kelly
They say that change can be a good thing. Just ask Kelly Rowland, a founding member of Destiny’s Child, the top-selling female recording group of all-time, and a best-selling Grammy-winning solo artist in her own right.
By 2006, Destiny’s Child had wrapped the group’s “Destiny Fulfilled” farewell tour and Kelly Rowland — who’d successfully debuted as a solo artist in 2002 with a global smash album, Simply Deep, and a chart-topping Grammy-winning hit single, “Dilemma” –decided to record her second solo album, a collection of new songs reflecting who she was and where she was going as a woman and as an artist.

Featuring production from some of the most innovative names in the game — including Polow Da Don, Sean Garrett, Tank, Scott Storch, Rockwilder, SoulShock and Karlin, and Billy Mann — as well as guest appearances from Eve and Snoop Dogg, Ms. Kelly is 100% Kelly Rowland 2007: sexy, honest, playful, and passionate. “I really put my heart and soul into this record,” she enthuses, “and not only am I excited that everyone’s going to hear the music, I’m looking forward to people getting to hear the real me.
