For years, a not-insignificant contingent of Destiny's Child fans have been claiming that Kelly Rowland, not Beyoncé, was the diva to watch in that group--the one whose crystalline vocal gifts got piggybacked on. With that kind of underdog love, Kelly could have coasted in her solo career, cranking out batches of classy ballads and midtempo joints designed mostly to keep the faithful convinced they were right. Ms. Kelly, though, has some points to prove, foremost among them that this songbird can rock: "I told y'all I was gonna bump like thee-es," she boasts alongside Eve on the red-hot banger of a first single that is "Like This." Later, she sidles up to Snoop Dogg in the slinkiest way possible on "Ghetto," busts out the funk on "Work," and scissor-kicks expectations about the limits of her clean voice on "Comeback." As the disc rolls on, Rowland's friskiness mellows--"The Show," with Tank, puts the focus on the near-forgotten art of harmonizing and "Still in Love with My Ex" makes a sweet study of romantic regret. The closing track, a ballad a country crooner could have had a good time with, nevertheless gets to the bottom of why this disc is so worth shelling out for: The love Rowland sings about on "This Is Love" is "like a diamond in the sand"; so, we come to realize, is she. --Tammy La Gorce

Customer Reviews

Simply Deeper
Well, after having this CD for a year I can now appreciate Kelly's sophomore album for what it's worth. The quality and the craftsmanship are there however; it just lacks the proper promotion which is fine in my book. Everyone is not meant for mainstream status and I have learned that some of the best albums are not billboard chart toppers. I have followed Kelly's career very closely for the last 10 years and watch her go from Beyonce backup to her own woman. While Kelly's debut solo album Simple deep was not deep enough, Miss Kelly is a much better attempt.
Stand out tracks include

Like this ft Eve
Ghetto ft Snoop
Flashback
Every thought is you
The show ft Tank
Still in love with my ex
Love (by far one of her best tracks written by Solange)
Better without you (another excellent track well crafted)

Overall I give the CD a B-

Yet Another...
This album was okay, not what I had hoped. The songs are ones I'd find on any other R&B singer's album, such as Brandy's, Monica's & Amerie's. I appreciated Kelly most at the time when she released "Stole", which was something no R&B singer had released at the time, and it made her stand out, also with a positive message.

Good CD
I think the cd deserves way more credit than it is getting.The CD does take a few listens, but then you will see that she has some really good tracks that can be placed on repeat.
