NEW MUSIC: KELLY ROWLAND – “SMOOCHES”


♫ Kelly Rowland – Smooches

Former Destiny’s Child bandmate Kelly Rowland gives us a taste of what’s to come on this upcoming third studio album, which fans have been anticipating.

The new track, “Smooches” is a buzz single, produced by Bangladesh, who is responsible for creating the hits “Diva,” and “Video Phone” for Beyonce, as well as Lil’ Wayne’s smash, “A Milli.”

The new sound for Kelly is exciting. Let’s hope that this track can build enough buzz and that her new situation with label and management will allow her to spread her wings on this new project. She’s been in the studio with David Guetta, Sean Garrett, as well as hitmaker, Rico Love. No word on a solid release date.

    I like it! My head was bobbin the whole song!

  4. Ebonyeyes

    Nice one but is anyone tired of the overtly sexual overtones in every song? “Sighs”

  5. Keenan Carver

    I LOVE it and she actually sounds good but the ending was crap. she’s right…it did sound unfinished….

  6. andreanicole

    DOPE AHHH I LOVE IT!

    Go KELLY!

  7. lollll

    The song is dope. It’s not Kelly’s song though, it was supposed to be Teyana Taylor’s but oh well. Kelly sounds great on it. It doesn’t sound finished because it isn’t, Kelly didn’t keep this for her album and Teyana bought it. Someone from the producers camp leaked Kelly’s vocals. Teyanna threw a bitchfit and ‘quit’ music! HA HA HA HA HA! Vocally Kelly sounds great. I am interested in hearing what she is coming out with.

  8. ms. fine brown

    I was just reading somewhere else how teyana taylor said that kelly stole this song from her and she was gonna quit the music industry bcuz of this. My 1st thought was nobody really knows teyana as an artist anyways. Not to be funny I’m very serious. And furthermore everyone knows the industry can be very shady so more power to both of them. Ladies let the drama go and live your life. Smooches! Lol!

  9. ATLANTA

    ISNT THIS TEYANNA TAYLOR SONG WITH LUDA????? IM LOST????

  10. ms. fine brown

    @ # 7. I feel the same way. I was LMAO to @ teyana quittin the industry!

  11. iCandi

    song is no good. sounds forced too….

  12. Tiff.Will.[Tiffany.Williams]

    Yess Kelly! Nice song.

  13. Mr. Lopez

    I like it

    @ Atlanta I was thinking the same thing

  14. thang

    no2 u are delusional an stupid

    i like kelly but hate the song. i know she can do better than this

  15. GwadaForceOne

    Me no likey!

  16. Kelz

    This is NOT singing it’s all studio tricks. Where’s the talent these days? The beat is bangin and the producer is dope but Kelly need to show up with her singing abilities on this album or she has lost me!

  17. Stoney-Brie

    i don like the song and i like that it’s not meant 2 b hers, it’s wack so anyone who owns this shud b just even wack, so im still anticipating some real Kelly comeback! ;)

  18. Real

    Sounds like Beyonce’s Diva part 2 to me.

  19. Cornbread07

    This isn’t going to be on her album. This song has been given to Teyana Taylor and is set to be her lead single. BTW, this song isn’t meant to be one to showcase someone’s vocals. Anyone who has seen DC performances or even solo performances can tell you that Kelly can very well sing. If you’d ever listened to her albums, you might know that.

  20. me

    not feeling it….I hoped she would go in the direction of “When Love takes over”

  21. Vivian

    LOVE IT!!!!! DO YOUR THING MS. KELLY! She sounds so fresh; something new, and little mama can sing.

  22. msblknasty1

    teyana needs to sit her boyish ass down ….kelly the song you did with nelly is all you get …. come out of the closet and write a book about your life… you may make a profit….lol

  23. Roz Doyle

    it really sucked that Beyonce didn’t do anything w/Diva (it had a boring video and never got big air play) and Video Phone had a cheap ass looking video. Just blah! So I would say Milli is this guys/girls/teams best endeavor to date.

    Can’t really hear Kelly in this song but maybe that’s the point and it sounds very cross-over poppish. If Keri Hilson’s “music” was a hit then this should be too. It’s no worse than what’s out now but no better either. Everyone wants a “different” sounds which makes nothing sound different when everyone take the same approach. I wish Kelly the best of luck though b/c clearly what she was doing before wasn’t working either.

  24. TRUTHFULLY CUTE 2010

    WTH? WHY SHE SOUND LIKE A FEMALE VERSION OF T’-PAIN…AINT FEELING IT KELLY IM SORRY BUT LETOYA LUCKETT GOT THINGS ON LOCKED NOT YOU!

  25. vexy

    I simply cannot stand her, she looks like a chipmunk and she always seems so conceited and stuck up. And her music is, well, hideous

  26. Leah

    The song is hot to me! You can definitely tell that Bangladesh produced, but it doesn’t sound like Diva to me..Go Kelly!

  27. Bacon Makes Everything Better

    I’m hoping Kelly was being sincere on Twitter last night when she said that “Smooches” isn’t the way her record has evolved since she recorded it. This isn’t what’s finally gonna put her on equal footing in America. If this is the direction her new sound goes in, her 3rd album won’t be the charm, whether she has new management or not. I like Kelly and very much want her to succeed, if only so people can stop bitching that brown-skinned girls can’t catch a break, and that she’s flopped in the US cause her last name doesn’t begin with a K.

    But if this is the way she plans to ‘take over’? Its not gonna fly. She has a beautiful voice- never was that more apparent than on Destiny Fulfilled- I so wish she’d USE it.

  28. PaperChazer

    I like it , it’s different, 2 me.

  29. Leah

    @ #25 To me, it’s like Kelly can’t win; when she makes songs that show off her vocal talent, everyone calls her boring..so now that she leaks a club type of track, people don’t like that either because they say it’s not for her..Now if Beyonce or maybe even Keri released this same song, people would eat it up..but are so picky when it comes to Kelly..

  30. Truly, Q

    cute

    but truthfully, the only way she’ll EVER step out of beyunka’s shadow is by finding a NEW sound…something different, fresh, & hot that hasn’t ALREADY been worn out by beysus

    but i do give her a B+…for effort

  31. make my day

    kelly im a fan but this aint it

  32. Sayitloud

    There r way 2 many haters in here and ur hate is toxic! U know who u r. Too much negative energy. Look inside urselves and u would c ur horns. This is Sunday so go pick up ur bible and stop making foolish negative commentary. Go do ur homework, take a bath and wash off that hating muck off ur bodies. Bunch of illiterates.

  33. KNUCK

    The Beyonce worshippers are really sad. The main thing that’s sad is that Kelly is like a sister to her, yet Beyonce’s fans drag her worse than Rihanna. What is UP with that?!?!

    Kelly sounds good on the song. The vocals are not even that processed, she just ususe a nasally fun tone. Love the arrangement and harmonies.

    I’m a huge fan of DC, and I used to feel Michelle was my fave outside of the group because I like her gospel albums, but now that I think about it I think I like more of Kelly’s music outside of DC (besides LeToya of course). Beyonce has never gotten any money from me solo wise.

  34. bayboo

    brian has got to be the weakest contributor on here

    this is just something kelly recorded once upon a time…it’s actually geared to be teyana taylor’s first official single

    start fact checking BEFORE u post boo

  35. upgrade

    sean garret’s version is WAY BETTER i run to it at the gym

  36. upgrade

    bayboo put brian on blast ahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaa

  37. Cory

    I wonder if this is the song that is suppose to be the first single from Teyana Taylor’s album?

  38. ktmusiclover

    this is a club BANGER.. this is NOT a song to show her vocals. And we already know that producers pitch songs to various artists and whoever can produce the most $$ and who can make it the biggest hit gets the final choice. Teyanna Taylor is a no name in the industry and may never go beyond being the “girl no one knew of who had a sweet 16 bday on MTV”

    I want Kelli to Succeed. I think this time without Matthew Knowles, who really sucks as a manager, she will.

  39. Olusheyi A. Banjo

    Terrible.i couldn’t even listen beyond 1:00 to this crap.It’s no wonder Boynce was the star of the group. Come with something better, then i’ll pay attention.

  40. Dev

    This doesn’t sound that different from Like This. I can’t really see what all the fuss is about.

  41. Dev

    Teyana should just leak her version now and let the peoples decide which is better.

  42. NONAME

    kelly u are wack and corny, not to mention an undercover slut

  43. KingMo

    Sounds like ‘Diva’ Part 2…sounds forced and not what I wana hear from Kelly R…I actually want to hear her showcase her vocals, even though they are limited (I’ve seen and heard the screaming in theose ‘When Love Takes Over’ performances :-s) I really hope she redeems herself.

  44. JACKTHERIPPER

    This doesnt sound like a kelly rowland song.

    This shouldve been released by teyana. it sounds more like her.

  45. Whoever

    LOL @ 43! Teyana has a sound?! LMAO some more!!!

  46. holly g

    BIG UPS to RICO LOVE.. rep for Milwaukee hunni :-D

  47. Dat_Boi_Get_Em

    The Beat Is Dope… The Song Could Be Better If It Was Actually Finished. LOL@Teyana Quiting The Industry, Shawty When Did You Start…

  48. Lanice

    This song is horrible. She needs to stick with David Guetta and those dance pop songs.

  49. Monie

    no kelly..nooooo. I have always loved and supported Kelly. She has a BEAUTIFUL voice but this is sh!t. She soulda just gave up singing after DC3 broke up, she would have waaaaaay more respect from the fans. Better to leave off at your best then to KEEP failing.

  50. Ashley

    get it Kelly.2010 is your year f**k the haters.

  51. beebs

    HATERS!!!!!! The girls’s beautiful/rich/famous/with talent! Wat can u say abt u???????????????????

  52. TIFFANY

    Y are people still checkin for Kelly? She is by far the whackest member of DC. Both of her albums sucked. Her nose job has ruined the lil bit of voice that she did have. She will go nowhere…EVER! I wish she would stop tryin, honestly. This song is aight, but the best things she has ever done (single wise) were “Dilemma” and “Here We Go Again”. Kelly….Your Destiny is FULFILLED!! Step away from the studio

  53. AWJ12687

    This is hot I remember Sean’s version I like her’s more though.

    @SDotCarter someone needs to release some tension! How somebody that doesn’t kno of your existence wild you up so is beyond me just calm it on down K. Kelly’s gonna drop without u.

  54. Meechy05

    MADD?. ..SMOOCHES BABY…HATERS DISGUST ME. EWW

  55. JJ

    I like the song. It’s different. I wish her the best of luck. I truly want to see her succeed.

  56. Justin

    I actually really like this track! I like the verses better then the chorus though. I also feel like it doesn’t move anywhere either. but i enjoyed it, made me smile.

  57. loso

    Kelly is the best member out of DC she has the most talent and the best looks. Sorry haters but Kelly will succeed this time she is the best singer out right now. Kelly is going to make it so big watch and see. I see all the Beyonce haters are scared now. Lmao don’t get scared just get ready for Ms. Kelly.

  58. loso

    Kelly is the best of DC I love it. This is a hit!!!!!!!

  59. ru

    Sadly, My boyfriend and I broke up a month ago. yeah.. i’m young ,beautiful,lonely and still hurting.i need someone to love ….My friends told me about A_g_e_m_i_n_g_l_e @ c.//o.//m and i got curious about it.. they met their boyfriends there.,It is said that it’s the best place to meet a older boyfriend or a younger girlfriend. .So i got a username AnnaBaby there in order to find a new boyfriend. is it wrong?

  60. TT78

    I agree with #16, this is not singing, it is studio trickery. Layered studio vocals like this, will make the song impossible to sing live. Kelly.has a good voice, and this kind of sound should be beneath her. But I guess she has to fit in somewhere.
