Good for Kelly, I guess.

As much as I think Kelly Rowland is a good person, she’s just not that talented without the group.

I really enjoyed kelly’s cd but i am looking forward to thee-release

Kelly is wack solo, love her personality though.

Im So Ready For Kims Project I Hope The New Lable Treat Her Well

i think j hud’s album will do ok
i wish kelly the best cause she seems like a nice person so hopefully she does well overseas
lil kim…… idk i

lil kim…… idk *how she’s gonna do

I have been anticipation Jen’s album for awhile now. As for Kelly, that’s one of those I’ll belive it when I see it type of deals right there…..

cant wait to hear JhUDS album, have been waiting to hear it!! she should at last leak a single to give us a taste of what shes gonna bring forward.

clive trying to make jhud into another aretha is noo suprise, he did the same thing with leona lewis tryin to make her into another mariah but it just isnt a good method! the reason why aretha n mariah are soo great is because they are unique, theres no point trying to copy other artists.

anyhoo i hope jhud has her own distinctive sound and style in this album,

ive given up on kelly, shes soo naiive and ditzy to realise that this re-release ainto gonna work

I LOVE KELLY ROWLAND WE NEED MORE ROLE MODELS LIKE HER!!!

Every single artist should be releasing their music independently.

why not? With today’s technology who needs majors. I bet you itunes is the most successful sub-independent label (despite being onine so you don’t get the inlay card etc)

No one needs an inlay card or need a physical CD anymore. Just give us the music and we will pay for the download and play it on our mp3 players. I mean, we read and here so much about the musicians online via their myspace page or on the blogs by the time the CD comes out, whoever they said thank you to in their “thanks yous” might be an enemy/frenemy/dead whatever……

And on the internet you can have worldwide one time releases and CA$H in.

And all you ned to do is stop spending money on manufacturing and spend the money on advertising (such as banners on CL / Crunk and Disorderly /allhiphop etc) and marketing sending mastered material to radio stations via your own production/label.

my 2 cents

After reading Kelly’s interview yesterday I have a new found R.E.S.P.E.C.T. for her… No more sly remarks from me because the SISTA seems to really have it together despite the haters… and from one SISTA to another, I will stand strong and support another!

j hud looks great there. I jus dont understand how she had so much new artist awards n stuff like that aready n she hasnt taken out her first single yet. I dont no, am i the only one that bothers?
kellys so pretty too she seems like such a good person and so positive, but she would have never made it as a solo artist without destiny’s child.
as for kim? y did u get a nose job u looked so much more beautiful natural.

Well Clive was wrong with Kelly Rowland CD… I think they should have used the momentum…

Go Kim Go Kim!!! can’t wait for her album…too bad foxxy locked up the last couple of leaked songs she had were fire…I’m interested in her comeback….

Good luck Kelly and hmm…now that JHud’s such a big movie star I’m not interested in hearing songs from her…but I am looking forward to the Sex in the City movie

I’m excited for JHud’s album…Clive Davis is indeed a very smart man and known for bringing out hit albums…so I wont’ be surprised at a chart topping album coming from her. I agree that everyone was looking at her as a young Aretha and he needed to change that…as far as Kelly goes…I wish her the best and I knew that Mathew Knowles didn’t promote her CD nearly as much as Beyonce’s…I wish KElly would realize she needs new management that wouldn’t mind pushing the extremes for her.

So glad we didn’t end up with an album that sounded as if she was 40. I’ll wait to hear some quality music. I know she has a very strong mature voice, but she’s young and I’d hate to be completely bored by her album.

She is rocking that all white. Very nice.

I’m going to have to Support Kelly. I will buy her cd…and I do not buy music. lol

Lil kim, I don’t really have a comment, but to say that I ran across her video some how the other day for crush on you…that took me back. She looked real then. As in real facial features, real slightly chubby tummy, but she looked ….ahem good.

Yeah, I agree.. Kelly seems like a nice girl. But, nobody wants to buy her cd.

We anticipated her breaking out solo, when we heard the song she did with Avant-Seperate—-So when her first cd came out, we all rushed out to buy it–Put it in the cd player–and were hugely disappointed-She was obviously aiming for pop-mainstream–When she is a ballad R&B artist…After that, everybody i know was over it…. She should get over it too.

@ 18 I agree.

I expected something completely different. Unfortunately, her first album was garbage. I was like what in the HELL is this? I remember some video she shot in a school and under a big tree. I think she was reaching, and way to far out. I think now she might have more of a grasp of her sound though. Well, I can only hope.

Jennifer Hudson needs to hurry up and come out with her album already, JEEZZ!!!

Kelly is WACK and BORING, she needs to Sit Down somewhere. All of that cockiness she was displaying when her Album was about to be released, talking trash (kinda) about how her Album was HOT and she wasn’t worried about competing with LeToya (with sales) has blown up in her face. Ole girl is a lame, try doing more acting because if she doesn’t do the group thing she won’t be successful…..

@22 You know I thought the front of that dress looked kind of off too in the stomach area that Jennifer is wearing maybe it is the way it is cut, but it looks funny, not very figure flattering to me. Which her success though.
Yea these award shows are whack like Rhianna best R&B pleeze……..I smh at BET ffor doing what they did with Jen, when there were artists she was nominated with who had even double platinum. Hype is right.
I never thought she was the next Aretha, never?????? Clive , please come up with another reason for canning the record. Don’t blame Aretha.

Kelly is a nice gurl but just isnt a solo artist. Maybe Mama Knowles will give her a purse line ot something.

And I have to agree about JHud. Great voice but I am also not interested in hearing any music from her outside of maybe a gospel album or show tunes. While she has her Oscar she needs to stay acting - feature films and Broadway only.

I think Kelly and JHud are at opposite ends of the vocal spectrum but they both prove everyone isn’t cut to be an rnb star.

I’m sorry about Kelly’s album. I was shocked cuz the first single “Like This” was my shit but I dont know what happened after that. Her songs just wasnt hittin it. Maybe she should just stick to acting cuz the whole solo thing isnt working even though her first album wasnt that bad. God I hope Michelle don’t have the same bad luck cuz she’s always been my fave

Lil Kim man sit ya botox plastic ass down please!!!!!!

J.Hud needs to hurry up with this album cuz I hope she aint think that “And I am Telling You” was going get her through her entire carreer ya digg

Yeah Kelly is a nice girl, but being nice doesn’t get you nowhere.After all the years in the industry you would think she have some tough skin and make her own destiny.Stop letting people make decisions for you Kelly, you will never grow nor will you learn.But if she doing good overseas, good for her.

Good for JHUD

Don’t care for The Mask.

I have heard many things about JHuds album over the last few months, heard she needed vocal training did not do well in studio recording movie soundtracks are recorded differently, this slant about her being the next Aretha new to me she never sounded like Aretha to me never thought there was much soul in her style, nice church sound or lounge sound. Unless they were waiting on the possible movie role and then promote an album, I even heard, Clive was not pleased with her live performances either to promote an album. Thank God she has that Oscar, hopefully that and all the other awrards keep her employed in this industry.
She looks preggers to me and before anyone says I am hating I like Jhud, I was concerned that there had been no album????
But that dress……not feeling it on her.

i trust clive and agree that it’s not fair to make a young woman in 07 try to be a new aretha. plus mary and now keisha cole have the griefing love torn woman game on lock-she’s definitely go far w/a good balance of dance and slow ballands…she’s young and her music should reflect that-and soon while she still has some steam in her ship.

They waited WAAAYYYYY too long to release JHud’s album, no one is interested anymore. I mean she wasn’t that interesting to begin wtih, but now they have just ruined any interest. I personally don’t think she is cut out for R&B, her voice is too over-the-top for any song that doesn’t require full-on belting and yelling.

Kelly Rowland needs to just go get married and have kids. Sorry.

GO LIL KIM, can’t wait for your new material. I wish Kelly the best of luck, I wush she would realy change her maagement no matter if thre may be ill feelings w/ Matthew Knowles this is about ur futrue career, n its not loooking too good rigth now.

J.Hud she bothers me for some reason but I love her song on Neyo cd.

Kelly just needs new management

I’ll be buying the album as it comes out kells!!!

@ 11

i do nead real cds

cause i love them!!! i hate mp3 downloads without cds and booklets

i want to have the music also in 20 years and i definitely dont have my laptop in 20 years

i mean need

Brian of all the crap you shove down our throats, you pick JHud for that one bold chance to be “uninterested”???? Of course, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be…but…goodness… I wish you were uninterested before that Danity Kane post.

As for JHud, no…she wasn’t going to sell… But I think she’s going to be rock…yall don’t believe me, huh? I think she’s going to be rock REALLY like Tina Turner.

Totally agree with #2 and #4…

I didnt like Kellys album the first time. Why waste money again on something even she is not sure of (letting Beyonce “approve” each of her songs). JHud I am willing to wait on becuz this is her first record. Good luck to Lil Kim.

I’m looking forward to hearing Jennifer Hudsons album. I agree with you #29, Kelly needs to change her managment. Also looking forward to new material from Lil’ Kim

Whatever Kelly. Excuses, excuses.

I’m so glad Clyde chose to wait to release her album. Her fans deserve nothing but fire. I just hope she still have fans when they do decide to release an album. I’m still a fan….I think.

I been quit Kelly. There is no hope for that child.

“It seems as though a lot of artists have been talking about going the independent these days. I think that route is better suited for artist who are already established and know that they can move numbers”

Exactly. Why doesn’t Mya realize this? lol

A big LOL @ 26, Movvie soundtracks are recorded differently…ok! Kelly needs to realize that she will never push units, not even on Letoya’s level. Kelly please go sit down and rest somewhere!

Kelly: Pretty girl but is not cut out for solo success. I’m sorry but it’s the truth.
JHud: Unbelievably overrated. Yo you couldn’t PAY me to listen to a full album of her screaming.
Kim: Maybe she should go into a new genre or something.

ANY NAME WILL DO

The BET Awards didnt diss J-Hud. If Anything they were riding her, she won best new artist and she didnt even have an album out!

Ummmm……some of you people need to get your facts straight before posting!!

Jennifer Hudson has been working with every BIG NAME PRODUCER in the music industry, and doing movies! I’ve heard the single “Happy Place” off of her album and it is straight FIRE! I will buy the album for that one song along….because if one song sounds that damn good, just imagine how the rest of the album will sound.

They need to time the release of J. Hud’s album with the release of the Sex and the City Movie. Maybe that will generate interest, because I’m with Brian…not interested.

@ Jayla

Yeah I like Jenn Hud. I think her joint will be off the hook Its worth waiting for. So who else has she been working with?

U PEOPLE MAKE ME LAUGH!! THE SAME PEOPLE WHO SUPPORT PEDOPHILES LIKE R KELLY WITH HIS WACK AZZ SONGS AND THE SAME PEOPLE WHO WERE LISTENIN TO THAT BULLSHIT COONING AZZ SOULJA BOY TRACK AS YEAR YALL SAY KELLY WACK AS A SOLO SINGER BUT THEN LOVE THOSE TWO DISGRACES?! STFU AND SITDOWN! PEOPLE MAKIN NASTYAZZ REMARKS BOUT HER NEED 2 KNOW YALL WILL NEVER BE ON KELLY OR BEYONCE’S LEVEL!

KELLYS ALBUM WAS REALLY GOOD, BUT SHES BEEN RAISED MATTHEW AND TINA KNOWLES MOST HER LIFE. IF SHE BROKE AWAY FROM THEM SISTA GIRL MIGHT HAV DONE BETTER. THOSE 2 SCUMBAGS RUINED ALL THE CHANCES OF THE OTHER GIRLS. THIS IS NOT BEYONCES FAULT SHE GREW UP WITH PUSHY PARENTS. LETOYA WAS SUCCESSFUL SOLO CAUSE SHE ALREADY BROKE OFF DESTINY’S CHILD AND WAS INDEPENDENT TO DO HER.

AND 2 SAY WON’T MAKE IT SOLO, LEMME BREAK IT DOWN:

HER DEBUT CD SOLD 2.5 MILL WORLDWIDE AND WAS HUGE IN THE UK. AMERICANS ARENT THE ONLY 1s WHO LISTEN TO MUSIC. SHE DID GOOD OVERSEAS.

WORK IS DOIN HOT IN THE UK AT THE MOMENT, AND THE RE-RELEASE OF MS KELLY SHOULD DO BETTER THIS TIME ROUND!

They need to time the release of J. Hud’s album with the release of the Sex and the City Movie. Maybe that will generate interest, because I’m with Brian…not interested.

^^^^^^^^

Who is she playing BIggs? Lol okay that was wrong!!

sombody said role model what type of role model is kelly? i need to know …. ass kisser is not something i would want my lil sister to follow lolololol….. jhud cd will do just fine……… lil kim eh eh eh ella ella lolol

Kelly needs to work on Kelly and no-one else.I love her voice and i think shes one of the most beautiful, kindest, classiest women in the game.

She’s the alright friend the one who stands around and watches as her other friends get all the attention!! Everyone has a part to play… And Kelly is the role model for the 2nd rate chicks in the universe!!!

j hud is going 2 flop and that’s the truth, she ain’t nothing special and she has an attitude

i love kelly

lil kim do u

All of the haters who dislike Lil’ Kim and Kelly Rowland who are both two positive women who are working towards they goals need to shutup!
Don’t diss black women who are trying to make money!

Jennifer needs to promo Sex and the City, singing her albums material on the shows she’s promoting on and sell that record!!! clive has a plan, i know he does.

I LOVE KELLY, i’m going to buy this cd like i bought the other one, i hope she gets tons of promo and sells great this time.

lil kim is random with this, i’m going to wait and she what she’s going to do.

Real talk all three of them need to buy a burger king franchise and call it a day. No disrespect but aint neither one of them bringing the hotness…

DEREON leave that stuff alone better yet go to rehab. YOU gotta be on that stuff to say that LIL’KIM is a postive woman. To whom? Hookers? Or women who have no respect for themselves? Kelly yes. Kim. NO!!!! Anywayz…J.HUD im soooo thrilled to read your bringin out an album…your voice deserves some attention. Good Luck mama. Kelly you are gorgeous sister with an amazin voice I hope you find better writers and producers for your vocals because you are another singer that deserves reqonition. Its like dayum nobody wants to hear REAL good from the soul music anymore too many are caught up in image and dollar signz….trully sad how the world is destroyin music. We need the real singers to stand up. Its time.

kelly plz ignore the hataz they’re just doin their job hatin while stayin broke. Let God take care of you ma and whatever happens you know is meant to be. Let the hataz contine their work….while your eatin they rather starve…eventually they will DIE.

I Wish No Selling Artist Were Renewed As Fast As Jordans Were Back In The Day.

Can’t muster up interest in any one of these three stories. Kelly’s really cute and bubbly and probably should be doing something other than solo recording, but eh, whatever.

…lol i agree w/ 46

I’m really not all that excited to hear an album from J-Hud. According, to this message board, I guess I’m the only one, lol. I’m just really not a big fan of her vocals. She sounds a bit too over the top when she sings, and it just ruins songs. For instance, like that duet she did w/ Neyo, she completely killed it! And, not in a good way! Her vocals are just way too over the top, and unnecessary.

Kelly Rowland…awwhh where do I start…lol! Kelly’s first cd, ‘Simply Deep’, was pretty deceit, it had a lot of nice mellow tracks and the lyrics were really good. However, her latest effort, ‘Ms Kelly,’ was pure garbage!!!! I knew it was gonna be garbage just from the first single, ‘Like This,’ sometimes I just think Kelly tries too hard to be something she’s not.

Lil Kim…no comment

Hmm, I find it funny that Brian is ohh soo interested in Mya’s project that’s NEVER coming on, Brian have been spewing hate on JHud recently, maybe because he is a Beyonce stan? How the hell could a music fan be interested in Danity Kanes & Britney Spears crappy songs, but oh I’m uninterested in Jhuds/WTF? You guys don’t know what her songs will sound like or what she will come out with. Brian stop bashing Jennifer and Grow the fuck up. CL needs a new music contributer, because Brian is uninteresting.

For all of those that claim that Jhud is so over the top the songs from DREAMGIRLS are over the top you idiots that doesn’t automatically mean that all her songs on HER cd will be like that or are you guys kind of Dumb.

Who the hell is interested in Sex & the City? I’m more interested in her other two movies.

Fantasia=OVER THE TOP. sorry

And we think that her songs will be like Dreamgirls why ????? Or that her cd will be showtunes why??????? Maybe it’s just me, but I think that her cd will be different than that.

Kelly is my girl.

I agree with Pam Brian has been bashing JHUD lately.lol. Not classy at all especially if you are a music contributer.

I also agree with Mya ,Jennifer has 2 other movies coming out. The Secret Life of Bees and Winged Creatures and they sound a lot more itneresting than Sex & the City.

im ready for some “new new” shit…..so im ready to see what jennifer hudson will bring to the table….seriously,i just hope she doesnt over sing all of her songs either way imma buy her cd when it comes out whether i like the first single or not

kelly is just soooo sweet,it hurts my heart to see her doing so poorly,especially when i actually liked the bulk of her album……..i think she should get into acting or inlist some better producers…….that song with tank was my jam….she is a really talented girl

kim is the da queen b wit her nasty self lol,but i wanna hear her new ish also.

Winged Creatures
The Secret Life of Bees
The Family that Preys

All these movies coming out and you guys are only interested in Sex in the City.lol What the fuck for The show was stupid and Jennifer does not have a big part in it.

I’m so happy for Jennifer Hudson!

I heard her song “Happy Place” and I have to say that it is AMAZING!!!

I’m truly excited for her and her upcoming projects.

Sex & The City, Winged Creatures [with Forrest Whitacre], The Secret Life of Bees [with Queen Latifah, Dakota Fanning, & Alicia Keys], and Tyler Perry’s The House That Preys [with Sanaa Lathan and Rockmand Dumbar]

I wish Kelly well and Jennifer well.
Did Kim leave or was she dropped?

@THEGREATESTLOVEOFALL

I cosign with you 100% you told the whole truth and nothin but the truth, because it confuses the hell out of me when people say tha shes wack but then they’ll go and support people who are killing music people like ciara soulja boy and all that other damn nonsense. Ms Kelly was a good album but they just put out all the wrong songs.

smh at these fools

no there is only one aretha so let jennifer be jennifer because she is the truth as jennifer hudson and i actually liked miss kelly.i wish them both the best and as for lil kim…no comment lol

Four albums looking forward to in 08′:
Janet Jackson
Mariah Carey
LeToya Luckett
and Jennifer Hudson just got added to my list.

Kelly no comment…

Ms. Kelly would’ve been better on the charts if they would’ve just released “In Love With My Ex” and “The Show” as singles!

I’m tired of saying it!!!

#68 Kathy Bates & Alfre Woodard are much bigger names than Sanaa Lathan and Rockmund Dumbar.lol

For all of those that claim that Jhud is so over the top the songs from DREAMGIRLS are over the top you idiots that doesn’t automatically mean that all her songs on HER cd will be like that or are you guys kind of Dumb.

__________________________________

I agree, I am not a big fan, but you gotta be an idiot to think that.lol

I also liked Happy Place.

I like Kelly , but she should have released different songs.
