Kelly Rowland releases another soon-to-be hit record with
her new single “Dirty laundry.” a raw ballad where she speaks of private issues
she’s dealt with over the years, such as being in an abusive relationship, and
feeling jealousy over her former group mate, Beyoncé.
The record is very deep and surprising, as she sings that
her former abuser told her “Don’t Nobody Love You but Me, Not Your Mama, Not Your
Daddy and Especially Not Bey,”
The transparency in the song is greatly appreciated by fans.
Kelly Rowland puts herself out there in a way where a listener wouldn’t scrunch
up their nose and say “Too Much Information,” but nod their head and sing along
as they reminisce on a place in their lives where they've been before, or
trying to get out of presently.
Kelly Rowland is relatable. We’ve watched her blossom into a
beautiful butterfly from Destiny’s Child, to beginning her solo career with her
debut album Simply Deep, to rooting
her for as her recent single Motivation
quickly shot up to the top of the charts and became a platinum record. This record
makes us appreciate her struggle even more. We appreciate the fact that she
loves us enough as listeners to let us into her personal life.
In a world where a lot of celebrities put on a “Never Let Em
See You Sweat” front on for their fans, never missing a beat or showing any low
points, while other abusive transparency by showing us parts of their life that
fans really don’t care to see, that are detrimental to their career.. Kelly
Rowland is a happy medium.
The record then beings to make you wonder: “Oh, is the
inspiration behind the singles Girl and
Bad Habit on Destiny’s Child’s album “Destiny Fulfilled’?
“Is this why Kelly Rowland was the only group member from
the original Destiny’s Child who stayed behind after countless allegations of
mistreatment by Matthew Knowles? Did she not realize her self worth back then?”
Whatever the case may be, we are glad that Kelly Rowland is
out these bad situations that she sings about. I will continue to root for
Kelly Rowland as she continues to rise up into her moment in the sun.
Kelly's album, Talk a Good Game, releases June 18th.
