Kelis - Acapella
She may have been the first girl to scream on a track, as Kelis says in her song “Bossy,” but she’s more like the 100th girl this year alone to try on the Euro-dance sound on her latest effort “Acapella.”
The singer — who took a break from music after being dropped by her former record label, having her first child with and divorcing rapper Nas — is reemerging with a new sound, new look, and a new place to call her label home.
She leaked the new single today via her twitter page and followed it up with a message to fans, saying she’s wrote it with “love and life in mind.”
Kelis compares her life to a song being sung in acapella and once love enters it, it’s brimming with pulsating beats and synths as illustrated by production by David Guetta. Although the overall sound is nothing new, the sincerity in the lyrics mixed with the danceable beat makes it pretty refreshing.
Kelis’ as-yet-untitled album is, she says, “pretty much done” and will be released in 2010 on will.i.am/Interscope Records.

Kelis has done euro-pop in the past, this is definitely not her 1st time. Plus, she pulls it off the best.
