According to Sam over at TheGrapeJuice.net, Music World has confirmed reports that singer Kelly Rowland has split with her manager Mathew Knowles. They both released statements:
MATTHEW KNOWLES
“After a very positive meeting between Kelly Rowland and myself, we have amicably agreed to end our professional relationship. My company, Music World, will continue to manage Destiny’s Child as a group. As an artist Kelly has incredible talent and I only wish her the best. We will always be family first and foremost, and as a dad I only have love for Kelly.”
KELLY ROWLAND
“Mathew Knowles has been a positive influence in my career. I have had great success under his guidance — both as a member of Destiny’s Child and with my solo projects. Although we have decided to part ways professionally, the Knowles family and the entire Music World Entertainment team will always be my family.”
No word on who her new manager will be. But rumors from a couple months back mentioned American Idol’s Simon Fuller and his company, 19 Entertainment.
It’s like they push Bey out as soon as the others get a lil success.When Like This started booming they pushed out Get Me Bodied and some more vids for Bey. Same thing with Michelle. WBTD was a hit and then came “Ring” and “Boy”. I think it took wat they did to Michelle to make Kels see the light.Her album was anticipated and the songs were Unexpected just like the album title.Her album was pushed back numerous times and still only 1 single was out every since April.By the time they set a date the album had completey leaked and had been heard so much and downloaded so much no one cared anymore.Then ironically the date they settled on, Beyonce released her two singles “Boy” and “Ring”. Michelle hadnt been promoted at all yet they stated the reason they pushed the album back was to promote her. Yet Bey’s album hadnt even come out yet and they had her on Oprah, magazine after magazine, and then she was on every show and award program u can name perfoming her 2 singles.Now she has out 5 to Michelle’s 3 and only one video yet Bey has videos comin out to each song from her album PLUS 2 Deluxe editions of the cd. I think Kels noticed that and THATS what made her wake up.
