THIS SONG WAS PRODUCED BY TANK! BEFORE ANYONE SAYS ANYTHING KELLY ROWLAND IS KELLY ROWLAND! IN NO WAY IS SHE TRYING TO BE “YOU KNOW WHO!!!!”

I THINK WITH THIS SONG SHE SHOWS WHAT SHE BROUGHT TO DESTINY’S CHILD!! THAT SMOOTH LAID BACK VOCALS!!

I LOVE IT!!!

I Love Kelly and her album.. it’s actually a good album if you are a true R&B fan.. it’s much better than her 1st album thats for sure… anyway I love to see a Chocolate Sista get her shine on.. I just hope her re-release goes better than the original…

I like her style in this video. She looked great! I thought the glitz glitter was a lot, but the video still had a nice slow groove to it. Snoop is the man and he crazy.

I love this track, Tank did his thing on production and her vocals are understated showing she can do laid-back and powerhouse. Would’ve liked to have seen a bit more dance routine (i know its a mid/downtempo but still) in the video but she lookin’ good nevertheless. This deserves to do well I just hope she can pull it off, it seems like no matter how good what Kelly releases it never does as well as it should…

mmm….I love me some Ms Kelly but i wasn’t really feelin Ghetto as a single but i guess its adequate to follow her up tempo song “Like This” i kinda wish she would’ve released “Work” first though.

LMAO @ 18… It’s Funny though!

Maybe I’m out of the loop, but this is so beneath Kelly. Is this what she has to conform to, to sell records???

the film/tv student in me is wondering (for those of you who watched access granted) did Syndrome direct this video? it’s got the same kind of editing effects as the B5 Hydrolics joint….

I like this. But i agree with #27, the subject matter does seem a little bit beneath her normal style. When i listened to her explain the concept in an interview i understood where she was coming from a little bit better, and I kinda felt her on it. I also agree with Angel. Her vocals do ride the track nicely.

Kelly should give it up…if she’s thinking she caught her a market with the ghetto folk, she’s wrong….Fantasia and Keyshia Cole already got it… Inevitably, they will compare her to Beyonce…Everybody got computers now, even thugs, everybody’s downloading lol lol lol So, she can throw that “I’ll be ghetto” fish back in the sea…. Oh, and I didn’t watch the video lol

Knuck

Let me say I am a HUUUUUGGEEE Destiny’s Child fan!

And I LOVE Kelly! :))

so here we go with the vid review:

1. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the vocals on this track, and the production is pretty cool and laidback too. nice to chill to. (wait, this is just about the song..)

2. The video itself is very TACKY and overdone. just because she singin about how she want her man “ghetto” doesn’t mean she gotta have them hideous Sheneneh nails and tired wigs on… UGH.. Her hair looked good in the one style (same as “Like This”) but the other ones were a HAM. Furthermore, the video looks very cheap. .. they got that one scene in the street with the people and the car and the rest was some Khia-esque edited in shit:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9HZ9q4jxWY —-> LMAO

3. The subject matter is so tired.. I thought we already did the “hood” thing with “Soldier” by DC3, Kelly??

ALSO, if u didn’t know, they got Kelly recording some new material for a re-release!

http://blackvoices.aol.co...2007/20070908114809990001
(scroll down to “Buzzworthy”)

wtf? I think her album is very solid if they release the right singles. They are making her look very incompetent, when that is not so..

@ 24

I LIKE “GHETTO” “THE SHOW” & “LOVE” THE BEST! “WORK” WAS TOO MUCH THE WORDS WENT TO FAST 4 ME!

I READ THAT THEY ARE GONNA RE-RELEASE HER ALBUM, SHE GONNA PUT NEW SONGS ON IT AND WORD IS SHE GONNA WORK WITH BRYAN MICHAEL COXS, TIMBALAND & SOME OTHER PRODUCERS.

I REALLY WANT KELLY TO SUCEED. THIS VIDEO IS PERFECT FOR KELLY!! ONCE PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THE PART SHE PLAYED IN DESTINY’S CHILD IT SHOULD BE EASIER FOR HER TO STAND OUT AS A SOLO ARTIST!!!

SHE CAN’T SING A SONG ABOUT “GHETTOOOOO!!!” BUT YA’LL LET BEYONCE SING “YOU MUST DON’T KNOW BOUT MEEEEEEE!!!!!” STFU!!!!!

GO HEAD KELLY DO YOUR THANG!!!!! SEXUAL CHOCLATE SELF!!!!!

40.

Lula Pear

Tuesday, September 11, 2007 /

Knuck, babe, I get that you’re a fan… but Kelly should accept that it’s just not in the cards for her to be solo… It’s like when people do those sitcoms and become typecast and they never work again…well, her stint in Destiny’s Child is not unlike that… I feel bad for her, as she is a pretty girl and she has a nice voice…but it’s over. Maybe Beyonce will get bored again and pick them back up… It’s likely, she’s certainly lacking, lately…

41.

SoGhetto...

Tuesday, September 11, 2007 /

Oh no, no, no! That was a waste of budget money…that she has 2 pay back. That video was straight TRASH!!! Why did Snoop have to be her love interest…it just doesn’t seem real. I hope she doesn’t think she’s selling more records from this video?!?

Nonetheless, she did look gorgeous. She has a very beautiful smile. Betta luck next time mama!

KELLY IS WAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY MORE CLASSY THEN A FANTASIA & A KEYSHIA COLE!!!!! PLUS I KNOW SOME CLASSY GIRLS THAT WANT THEM A LITTLE GHETTO(NESS) IN THEIR LIFE, AND I KNOW SOME GHETTO GUYS THAT WANT SOME CLASSY CHICKS IN THEIR LIFE!!! SO DON’T KNOCK!!!

Positive : Kelly looks gorgeous, she’s one of the prettiest women in the game PERIOD, her body is crazy, her skin is amazing, her beauty can’t be denied.

Negative : I wish R&B singers would stop promoting “ghettoness” especially when they’re not from the ghetto. That is very stereotypical and insulting. There’s nothing “cute” about thugs (or tricks, for guys), stop acting like it’s so fly and selling that to young minds. Black people, we’ve GOT to do better, this is pathetic right now.

And the song itself ain’t all that, she has a good voice though, but we all know that.

I’m very disappointed.

49.

Lula Pear

Tuesday, September 11, 2007 /

Okay, I don’t internet argue…it’s as pathetic as my constantly coming here when I’m supposed to be working on something… So, I’ll just say this, and quick. Kelly will NOT have a solo career and Kelly will NOT have a solo career because of Kelly. Okay, there’s the issue of lookism, of people wanting, always, the lighter skinned girl…someone will make that argument, I know…and I agree…that is a major issue among African American people.
BUT, we are at a point in music (a very vapid point, might I add) where evetything “ghetto” seems to be a hit… So, if she wanted to go this route, she could have… but what’s stopping her???????
Well, first of all you have her relentless Beyonce worship… I mean, COME ON…must she say things like “I have to let Beyonce hear everything I do.”
Okay, what’s next… Kelly shows up at the BET awards and not only performs during Beyonce’s set, but does only a piece of her song,
and what is she wearing???
Beyonce is wearing Balenciaga pants, straight from the runway and Kelly is wearing a suit with the House of Dereon logo plastered all over the back of it… Oh and it get’s worse…
She’s dancing and the sleeve falls off…

She does it to herself…don’t care…

50.

yes

Tuesday, September 11, 2007 /

i think the song woulda been better if it were more uptempo, maybe i just dont buy kelly as “ghetto” or bein with anybody ghetto, i know i dont like that life jacket she has on and those cheesy graphics, I agree with 40

52.

yes

Tuesday, September 11, 2007 /

i agree chante and i dont think is a lightskinned issue, everyone knows kelly is a pretty girl, this is about her as a solo artist and she’s just not bringin it

GROW UP GIRL! YOU SOUND LIKE YOU ARE SIXTEEN YEARS OLD. YOU ARE A GROWN WOMAN WHO IS ATTRACTED TO BAGGY PANTS, HOW FAKE IS THIS. SHE MUST BE ATTRACTED TO YOUNG DUDES, BECAUSE GROWN MEN DO NOT HAVE ANY BUSINESS WEARING SAGGY PANTS. SHE IS PRAISING A PERSON WHO SHOOTS DICE, AND HANGS ON THE CORNER. HER SINGING IS SO WACK ON THIS SONG. I THOUGHT ABOUT BECOMING A KELLY FAN BUT MUSIC LIKE THIS MAKE ME REALIZE WHY I DISLIKED HER MUSIC IN THE FIRST PLACE, SHE IS SO PRE-PACKAGED, AND STILL IN BIANCAY’S, LOL SHADOW.

i don’t understand why yall put so much unecessary hate on her ,the vids out now a days an’t about shit anyway,if yall can listen to soulja boy non rapping ebonics ass and eccept the other wack ass vids out now a dayz then yall can ease up off her ,her album is original and soulful and her vids are classy yet hood i mean kelly is doing something beyonce would never do …when there’s a pic of b&j yall yell yawn but yet when something new comes around you all wanna be on beyonce dick…it hit me like crazy that yall are some delusional haters

WHAT DOES THE B.E.T AWARDS HAVE TO DO WITH THIS VIDEO!!!! I THINK KELLY HAS TAKEN IN CONSIDERATION OF EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED IN THE PAST SUCH AS WAY SHE OVERWORKED HERSELF, WHY THE ALBUM DIDN’T DO WHAT YA’LL WANTED IT TO DO (NOTE: SHE WAS HAPPY WITH HER SALES) SO NOW SHE GONNA GO IN THE STUDIO AND RECORD A COUPLE OF NEW SONGS. BEYONCE HAD TO DO THIS TOO WITH “B-DAY” DON’T FORGET?!?!

TO THOSE WHO SAY COME ON NOW WITH THE “GHETTO” WAY OF THINKING….. YA’LL BE THE MAIN ONES DOWNLOADING SHIT AND NOT GOING TO THE STORES TO PURCHASE THE ARTIST THAT YOU ENJOY!!! PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH!!!!

I’m sure the ppl who don’t like Kelly’s song don’t like Soulja Boy…. I mean, unless I missed a post where someone said they’d rather listen to him than her. I, personally just can’t stand ignorant “music” period. But good luck to Kelly!! The music is nice and her voice is beautiful on this track, I wish it was more of a I love u song or a self love song. Not, a “I need a Ruff-neck”.

66.

ashley TO LULA

Tuesday, September 11, 2007 /

HOLD UP HOLD UP LULA THE REASON THE ALBUM DIDN’T SELL WAS BECAUSE THE CHICK HAD ONE DAMN SONG/VIDEO OUT FOR OVER 6 DAMN MONTHS HER ALBUM WAS AT NUM 6 ON THE 200 CHARTS IF SHE HAD MORE VIDS OUT WE WOULDN’T BE HAVNG THIS CONVO ..POINT BLANK NOT CAUSE SHE CAN’T SING,OR SHE NOT PRETTY,OR WHATEVER REASON YOU MADE UP IN YOUR LIL HEAD

CAUSE IT WASN’T PROMOTED RIGHT SHE GOT A GREAT CD WITH 7 POTENTIAL SINGLES ON THAT JOINT THAT SHIT COUGHT ATTENTION (HENCE HER BEING NUM 6 ON THE 200 CHART) THE SHIT WASN’T PROMOTED RIGHT NOTHING MORE NOTHING LESS SAY WHAT U WANT BUT MY EARS TEND TO IGNORE HORSE SHIT YA GET ME

KELLY IS MORE OF PECAN-COLORED PERSON, NOT CHOCOLATE. FOXY BROWN IS A CHOCOLATE COLORED BLACK PERSON. CHOCOLATE IS DARK SKINNED, KELLY IS BROWN SKINNED. IN THE COLOR STRUCK ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY SHE IS CONSIDERED DARK SKINNED, BUT TO THE AVERAGE EVERYDAY BLACK PERSON SHE IS BROWN SKINNED. I AM SAYING THIS BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE ON HERE OFTEN REFER TO HER AS DARK SKINNED, ANYWAY, SHE IS NOT DOING ANY DARKER SKINNED SISTAS AND BROWN SKINNED SISTAS A FAVOR BY PRAISING CORNER DUDES, AND DICE SHOOTERS.

I AM SICK AND TIRED OF SEEING THESE GOLD TEETH WEARING, BAGGY PANTS WEARING DUDES FLASHING SIGNS AND BOUNCING ALL OVER THE TELEVISION. LET’S SEE SOME BROTHERS WHO ARE WORKING A 9 TO 5, ON A COLLEGE CAMPUS, OR IN A BOARD ROOM. BROWN AND DARK SKINNED SISTAS ARE STEREOTYPED AS BEING MORE GHETTO AND BITCHY THAN LIGHTER SKINNED SISTAS, THIS VIDEO IS A TRAIN WRECK AND IT KELLY DOES NO JUSTICE FOR ANYONE WITH THIS H.A.M AND EGGS VIDEO.

#67
And your making that “distinction” (I’m being generous, really) between “chocolate” and “brown” skin is as much a perpetuation of a stereotype as is Kelly with this “ghetto” mess… Why should you need to make that distinction? You obviously think one is better than the other… This, of course, has little to nothing to do with Kelly’s video…

This song is kind of wack. Especially for her second single. I don’t see myself bumping that in the car. She does look pretty, but she always looks pretty because she is. But, she needs to come much stronger. She ain’t selling no albums off this sinlge. I just started liking her first single. Her songs shouldn’t have to grow on you. They should just bump right away. But, much success to her. I hope this album does better than the last one = )

MY POINT IS TO THE PEOPLE WHO THINK THEY KNOW A PERSON OFF A COUPLE OF INTERIVEWS AND VIDS AND BASED OFF THE FACT YOU MUGS DON’T EVEN LIKE KELLY MADE IT A 90% CHANCE YOU HAVEN’T EVEN HEARD A INTERVIEW SHE HAS DONE I JUST GOTTA WONDER WHERE YALL GET OFF SAYING SHE DON’T HAVE A GHETTO SIDE TO HER WHEN SHE STATED A BILLION TIMES SHE LOVE GANGSTER DUDES,YALL ALLOW B TO THROW THE ROC SIGN IN YOUR FACE AND SHIT BUT KELLY CAN’T KICK IT WITH SNOOP IN A LOW RIDER? HATERZ NEVER CEASE TO AMAZE ME

HER ALBUM IS FILLED WITH LOVE ,PAIN,FUN,REALITY,SEXINESS AND ALL AROUND SOMETHING DIFFERENT WHERE THE HELL DO YALL GET OFF SAYING SHE CAN’T SING A SONG LIKE THIS? IT AN’T LIKE HER ALBUM IS ALL ABOUT THIS ,LET THE GIRL HAVE FUN DAMMIT,ONCE AGAIN I’LL SAY IT IF U LIKE IT THEN WATCH IT IF YOU DON’T THEN CHANGE THE DAMN STATION THIS IS THE ENTERNET AN’T NOBODY FORCE YOU TO PRESS PLAY MA NIGGA ..OH AND I HEAR U NEON I’AMMA TRY, I’AMMA TRY

In no way is she trying to be like B, I feel Destany Child needs to get back

2gether because as a solo artist Kelly is not believable.

To me, the video was just ok. Nothing spectacular. The song is ok, but I don’t think it’s anything thats gonna climb the charts or get any music nominations. and I’m sooooo sick of her and that damn house of dereon! I think she wears the shit more than all the knowles put together! She needs to start promoting HER and not beyonce all the time.

AwWww I love this video, cute simple and classy it speaks Kelly. I love the visual graphic effects, the video mos def collabs with the song, and most videos dont. Certain videos usually dont make me like the song, but this particular video got me lovin this song, I will mos def bump this track in my 72 Cadi…..feelin so “Ghettoooooooo.” Lol, You go Kelly…do your thing girl.

Kelly looks beautiful (minus the overdone jewelry, wigs & shit).. she always looks awesome. Even though I’m a redbone I can truly say she reps dark-skin sistas well.

But uhm, yeah, I have to agree with #38 the most.

With such unique tracks coming out lately, not just production, but lyrics too. I don’t feel like Kelly can afford to keep beating that same dead horse over & over again. That whole “ghetto” trend seemed to die out this year, and there’s nothing cute about wanting a “ghetto” man. So as for the lyrics on this track.. Next!

This is why people like Kelly Rowland & Mya can’t seem to get the liftoff that they need. Not because the talent (in Kelly’s case) isn’t there, but because the topics/style they sing on, is sooooooo outdated. Back in like 2005 when ATL ran things, maybe a song like this would have done well with mainstream radio & whatnot. But now? You have such strong tracks coming out (like Alicia’s new material), talking about new things, positive things, and really making songs like this seem “wack”.

She has alot of potential, but this video, and the cheesy jewelry, and the overused hydraulics, and the bad wigs, and just the overall “Trina-vibe” I’m getting from this has taken Kelly back atleast 10 steps in my book. Oh well.

I actually didn’t like this song, but the video boost’s it up a lil bit on my chart. I think she should have had Snoop in the office, then that would have been a different concept. In the office, but he has th 24’s…IDK. I like it though, Kelly looks amazing.

I like the beat and Kelly looks great….The words are trash and so was the intent for the song….Funny how people sing songs about being ghetto and saggy jeans and all that stuff, yet get mad cause u don’t attract business men or respectful ones….Sorry Kelly I won’t be walking around praising this song…don’t want that kind of man.

Love Kelly, video could’ve been better…I know the title is “Ghetto” but it didn’t have to be so…it looks like one of those pic b/g that you take in a department store came to life or some shit with the pink and blue blurry backgrounds with stars floating…WOW

And what made me even more mad is that there was no promotion for this…I didn’t even know it was coming on last night until it came on…WTF Matthew???

I hope after this Kelly leaves the Knowles’ camp or just join the new DC with Solange and take backseat all over again

Kelly really do have a good album. It kills me to hear people say poor Kelly, if you feel that way go out and buy her album. It has some really nice tracks on there. I love the video, the song and I love the fact that she teamed up with Snoop.

I’m tired of people saying another person is a hater because they don’t agree…its called being a critic and having an opinion…If you don’t like the song your not hating on it…It may not be your type of song…If you like it then you like it….If we all liked the same exact things then it would be no versatility in the music industry.

I’m not really feeling this song, might grow on me though, like “Like This”, we’ll see.

On a sidebar…why do people have to say Kelly is such a beautiful chocolate sistah, and I love her skin tone. Can’t you just say she’s beautiful and let it stand? Just a thought…

KELLY IS REALLY TRYING BUT YOU WOULD THINK SHE WOULD BE ABLE TO ENCOMPASS MORE SUBSTANCE. I MEAN I TOTALLY AGREE WITH #14…THIS IS SOMETHING I WOULD EXPECT FROM SOME TEENY-BOPPER LIKE LIL MAMA OR THAT NEW CHICK THAT SINGS “PROMISE RING”. SINGING ABOUT A GHETTO MAN AND THE GHETTO STUFF THAT HE DOES SEEMS FAMILIAR…

~~~I NEED A SOLDIER~~~

WHICH WAS DONE YEARS AGO IN THEIR YOUNGER DAYS. THEN SHE HAD GLITTER GRAPHICS AND LITTLE HEARTS AND STARS IN THE VIDEO…MY 8 YEAR OLD IS GONNA LOVE THIS, LOL. I COULD HAVE SWORN WE RAGGED ON CIARA FOR HER WHISPERING OVER THE TRACK ON THAT SONG WITH 50 CENT..EVEN THOUGH THAT SONG WAS WACK, THEIR VOCALS PRETTY MUCH SOUND THE SAME. SHE CANT KEEP WONDERING WHY HER SOLO CAREER HASNT TAKEN OFF IF SHE KEEPS PUTTING OUT MATERIAL LIKE THIS…ITS BUBBLE-GUM MUSIC!

Some of ya’ll KILL me with this “Chocolate” and “dark” comments about Kelly. DAMN! She is NOT that dark! Who calls Beyonce a beautiful “light skinned ” woman?? Stop the slave mentality people!! Kelly is beautiful and is really “dumbing” down her music to sell to the younger snap music crowd. When I first heard this song I was soo disappointed in her. Ghetto? Maybe Keisha Coles can sing this but and get away with it but not Kelly.

124.

PurpleZoe

Tuesday, September 11, 2007 /

No.

This is one gorgeous chocolate siren who needs to forget gimmicks and give us some of her true identity. I rarely criticize but this was unflattering, stereotype-perpetuating, and flat. The song doesn’t even make it average, and she’s devoid of swagger, even ghetto-swagger.
I’ve been rooting for Kelly, but I’m very disappointed.
This was a bad move. She would do better to focus on the fact that she’s naturally classy and forget trying to cash in on trends, and shock-pr.

I’M JUST GLAD WE HAVE ARTISTS OUT LIKE ALICIA KEYS AND SUCH, BECAUSE THIS “GHETTO” SHIT IS LAME. BLACK FOLKS ALWAYS WANT TO BE LOOKED AT FOR MORE THAN JUST BEING “GHETTO” OR BEING LOOKED DOWN UPON AND THEN WE GO MAKE SOME CRAP LIKE THIS. SUCH A DOUBLE STANDARD THAT “WE” PUT ON OURSELVES, LOL. ITS CRAZY. I WONDER SHE MADE THIS TRACK DID SHE HONESTLY SAY…”I AM CONTENT WITH THIS, THIS SINGLE IS GOING TO BE A GOOD-LOOK FOR TAKING MY CAREER TO THE NEXT LEVEL.” ??

SHE MIGHT AS WELL HAVE LET SOULJA BOY COME SUPERMAN ON THIS HOE!!!

Lula you are so so on point I mean it is so true with the with your whole comment,but I totally disagree that Kelly album was good it was horrible she should have been herself and stayed in her own element. But no she stepped waay out of her element being someone she is not or catering to the Knowles family cult you can put out a album but be sure its not hotter than B’s look how that cult went into a panic when Letoya was coming out.Kelly- I’m mean she has the King of Chronic through her whole video but she’s all Say no to drugs wat do hell I really wish Snoop did not waste his time to do such a lame azz video

Of all the topics to sing about she chooses “ghetto”. She’s a millionaire, living in a mansion, has not seen the ghetto for about 15 years and talking about all she wants is “ghetto”. Come off of it!

I usually LOVE Kelly, but she could’ve done better that this. The song does nothing for her voice. But she looks great…I guess that counts for something…I guess.

who help her to release songs? she should have released one of these and after may be ghetto…it my opinion

On a possitive note Kelly looked great (she always dose anyway).

Tuesday, September 11, 2007 /

Why doesn’t Matthew Knowles or whomever it is that is puppeteering this woman have her go somewhere and sit her ass down. Take her off the damn stroll, because every time I see her, the only thing she does is depict herself as a whore. She, like 90% of hip hop artists, is tired and her music is tired. It’s seems like when they made their deal with Satan to make Beyonce a star, just as they were crossing the t’s and dotting the i’s, Matthew said, “….and Kelly can get a little bit too…”. It seems like everytime you see one of these female R&B videos, the record label has some young, allegedly “Christian”, black woman singing 1) How much she loves thugs and gang members. 2) How much she hates black men 3) How much she wishes she was a man.

It’s good to see that the feds still have Snoop (around) surveilling all the other “hip-hop” stars, lol.

I never liked kelly with red hair back in DC days and so i didn’t like the video highliting her hair in red here either. Some black women look good with red hair though. Yuck@ the long nails.

This was not good Kelly. She needs to hook up with Toni Braxton’s people and do songs Toni would be doing right now if she wasn’t going thru whatever latest drama she’s going thru. I love Toni and i think Kelly coulda done well following her footsteps.

I’m really curious as to what happened btw her and her ex fiance. The man was no thug rolling dice on the street and kelly doing this song is making me question her judgement and thinking process. What is so cute at her age, about a man with die?

I think her vocals are amazing, she looks beautiful (as always) and the video was okay. I really hate the lyrics however, I think she is so much better than that. Oh and by the way, MANY songstress has came out with “Ghetto” and Negroidian songs/lyrics, so yall need to stop getting on Kelly. A song does not necessarily have to be titled “Ghetto” or have the word ghetto within its lyrics to be classified as trash. So fall back.

I love me some KELLY ROWLAND but honestly I am NOT feeling this video.

GHETTO??? WTF?

What the hell made her come up with this single, & if she didn’t write it what on earth made her agree to go along with “singing” it? Her & BEYONCE kill me with the “good-girl”/gotta have me a THUG” type songs! Go above that, these girls didn’t even grow up in a lower class neighborhood, yet you see them trying to play hard & what not up against these real life former thugs/hustlers/ gang babgers?

I mean, personally if I was to do a song with SNOOP, I’d have to drw some boundaries. Because lets face it we all know what SNOOP is about when it comes to his music. KELLY can do better (as CHARLIE MURPHY would say). We got to do better!

*Did you see the GRILLZ (circling around in space & “GHETTO” jewelry)–LOL!

OMG!!

I am so disappointed in Kelly in this video and song. The video was so stereotype, yet cheap . The chemistry betweeen Snoop and Kelly in the video is not there. Dont get me wrong I admire Kelly for trying. A solo career is not working in her favor. I have supported her from day one. She will never sell any records because she is in the Knowles camp. They control her and give her garbarge for video and songs. This poor girl is locked into a contract forever w/ Daddy Knowles. Anyways, she does not get it yet that she needs to give it up. They give more props to B’s sister “So- Long” nose. The Knowles Camp are” just peeing down her back and calling it rain”…

Did B’s sister So- Long write this mess? If so, it was a definately a set up.

Look at this analogy: B is marketing to a pop audience which is the largest listeners. Those consumers buy the CD’s out the store= millions sold.

The same consumers will not buy Kelly CD’s. Its not r ap. Cause rap sells. Its soul and the song is corney. Ghetto image is just about over as soon as Kanye started to wear pink polo tops. It was over about 4 years ago with Nelly and grilz. They are doing this women so wrong its a crying shame.

Crumbysmom

Tuesday, September 11, 2007 /

Am I and #72 the only people on this board that finds a problem with the way in which Kelly is using the term “Ghetto”. Also Ghetto is a noun not an adjective. When used as an adjective to describe a certain behavior or a person it is classist and most of the time borderline racist. Here is the definition by Webster-

“a quarter of a city in which members of a minority group live especially because of social, legal, or economic pressure”

So when she said “Ghetto ” was she referring to people who go to church on Sunday, sharing their last bit of sugar with their next door neighbor, working 2 jobs so their son can join the football team. Because you know all that stuff happens in the ghetto too. When you stereotype a whole group of people who may have the same socioeconomic factors in common but maybe not much else its not only unfair its classist. Are a lot of you guys referring to gun totting, drug selling, rim having, behavior. I hope not because I am sure you can see how that might be a bit unfair to a large portion of those who live in Ghetto’s. Imagine what type of stigma that puts on the younger generation who live in Ghetto’s. Words have power. Lets use that power wisely.

#67- Explain to me what this means “BEING MORE GHETTO”. Without stereotyping a whole economic class. I just don’t get why we do this to others. First that BET show now this. I never liked Kelly’s voice to begin this video and lack of social conscious makes me REALLY dislike her. Way to go Kelly.

NO ONE IS HATING ON KELLY. YOU HAVE TO HAVE SOMETHING THAT SOMEONE IS JEALOUS OR ENVIOUS OF IN ORDER FOR THEM TO HATE ON YOU. IT IS SAD TO SAY, BUT ARTIST WISE, KELLY WILL ALWAYS BE IN BEYONCE’S SHADOW, JUST AS DIANA ROSS WILL CONTINUE TO OVERSHADOW HER FORMER SUPREMES MEMBERS. BEYONCE IS OVEREXPOSED, BUT SHE HAS THAT APPEAL. EVEN THOUGH SHE IS NOT THE BRIGHTEST STAR IN THE SKY SOMETIMES, BUT PEOPLE ARE GOING TO ALWAYS BE INTERESTED IN WHAT SHE SAYS AND DOES MUSICALLY AND PERSONALLY. EVERYONE CAN’T BECOME SUPERSTARS, AND ENTERTAINMENT LEGENDS. KELLY WILL MAKE THE HALL OF FAME AS A MEMBER OF DESTINY’S CHILD, BUT NOT AS A SOLO ARTIST. YOU CAN TELL THAT KELLY IS DESPERATE FOR A HIT, COME ON, SHE IS MAKING HERSELF LOOK LIKE A STEREOTYPICAL FOOL JUST TO MAKE A HIT.

171.

Orphan Annie

Tuesday, September 11, 2007 /

I agree with Denise #170

I was pulling for Kelly and I am certainly not “hating” on her but she just does not have that “it” factor and “it” has nothing to do with SKIN TONE cause if it did Mya would be #1 right now, Im not saying it wont get you through the door quicker, but It doesn not determine your success.

DIANA ROSS WAS THE UGLIEST SUPREME AND SHE WAS THE DARKEST(this was in the 60’s and 70’s before she bleached her skin)
But she had “IT”

MARY j BLIGE
LAURYN HILL
ANITA BAKER
WHITNEY HOUSTON
BRANDY
JILL SCOTT
MISSY ELLIOTT
none of these people are “light” and they have all been VERY successful

Kelly just does not have what it takes or the right team behind her, she should have had a single out 6 weeks after Like This and it shouldnt have been Ghetto.

I couldnt imagine her singing that live and the video did SUCK, im 33 and I would watch Soldier Boy video a million times AND DO THE DANCE before I sit through that again.

I agree with 171. Kelly is trying to do something it seems she’s not meant to do. Seems like her heart really isnt in this music business. Her singing is nice, but it’s laid back, her dancing is okay, but laid back, everything about her seems to be laid back, except when it ’s time for her to kiss the butt of certain people. All I can say, I’m not motivated to buy her music because either she’s holding back or maybe this is the best. Even in the song “LIKE THIS”, Eve, the rapper, is carrying the song most of the time. All I know is that not everyone was meant to be a lead singer.

#165 - Ahh ignorance is bliss! How do you think things like war, terrorism and hate crimes start. Sit and think. They start from words and ideas that have been planted like seeds. Somebody could have said one word and 9-11 wouldn’t have happened. A couple people in Congress could of stood up and said one word and the war in Iraq wouldn’t have gone down. ONE WORD. People are so busy cosigning and being brainwashed that we just do what every one else is doing. Classism and racism are big deals to me. Sorry but they are. I am sure you have bigger issues to deal with but these are two that I am going to continue to fight. Enjoy your Kelly CD :)

This video is awesome; She so beautiful, she’s the only one who can make a cute video with Snoop Dogg. People were expecting she’d take her clothes off and make an obvious hip hop video. I love how she is always smiling and being herself… that’s the way she is no matter what people say.

I LOVED THE VIDEO ANYONE WHO SAYS SHE IS NOT GOING TO DO WELL IS A HATER, I THINK SHE SHOULD HAVE RELEASED “IN LOVE WITH MY EX” BECAUSE IT IS A BANGER BUT I STILL LOVE GHETTO. IT’S HOT, FOR THE IGNORANT FOLKS THAT THINK SHE IS PROMOTING BEING GHETTO, SHE IS NOT, AND FURTHERMORE A GHETTO IS A NEIGHBORHOOD THAT A PARTICULAR RACE DOMINATES, AND YES SHE LIKES MEN IN BAGGY JEANS, AND SHOOTING DICE, WHY WHEN BLACK FOLKS SAY GHETTO WE ATTACK EACH OTHER GIVE IT A BREAK ENJOY GOOD MUSIC AND RELAX, WHEN A BLACK ARTIST MAKES A RECORD THEY ARE NOT SPEAKING FOR THE ENTIRE RACE AND IT DOESN’T ALWAYS HAVE TO BE A FIGHT THE POWER ANTHEM WE CAN HAVE “FUN” MUSIC. HER RECORD IS NOT A GHETTO ENDORSEMENT.

This is a nice choice for Kelly’s second single. I like the song, and after watching the video, I listened to the CD again. Not bad, not bad…

Quick somebody lock Mathew Knowles up in a closet cause when he sees the heat off this video it will go right on the shelf. I wonder what Beyonce move is going to upstage this?

I love Kelly, she is beautiful. I wanted her to release Work, but I like this and the video was really dope.

Great Job.

DENISE SAID: YOU ARE TOO FUNNY. MUSTARD GREENS AND LIME JUICE. I FORGOT THAT BEYONCITA SAID THAT SHE WISH THAT SHE WAS BORN LATINA. SHE PROBABLY DO PUT LIME JUICE IN HER MUSTARD GREENS, AND SHE PROBABLY PUT SOFRITO IN HER CREOLE GUMBO, AND THUNDERBIRD IN HER MOJITO, LOL.

She looks great, but at the same time the video looks like it had a tight budget…it reminds me of something Ciara would have done-has that whole vibe. Maybe its just me…props 2 kelly though.

I thought the video was wack as hell and low busget. I guess because her album flopped so hard, they weren’t paying a lot of money for another video. Besides that, I was surprised at how beautiful Kelly Rowland looked. Wow, beautiful brown/dark skinned sista. Her hair looked real cute and her skin was flawless. The thing about Kelly Rowland is that sometimes she’s cute and sometimes she’s not. She really has to watch how she wears her hair or the type of makeup she uses so she can look this beautiful all the time.

I’m a brown-skinned woman, and I’m tired of being stereotyped as being ghetto simply because of my skin complexion. And speaking of medium-brown to dark-skinned black women being popular, what about people like Stephanie Mills, Whitney Houston, Lauryn Hill, Janet Jackson, Diana Ross, Gladys Knight, Aretha Franklin, Chaka Khan, Patti Labelle, Dionne Warwick, and what have you? They were popular in the music business. Keysha Cole is light-skinned, and she represents the hood.
