Their has been a lot of controvercy surrounding R&B singer Kelly Rowland lately due to her departure from Columbia Records and her split from manager Matthew Knowles. A lot of the uproar surrounds Roland’s success or lack of success in comparison to former Destiny’s Child bandmate Beyonce Knowles with Mathew Knowles at the helm.
In a survey conducted at Singersroom, visitors weighed in.
Seventy percent of fans surveyed believed Matthew Knowles prohibited Kelly Rowland from having a successful solo career, while the majority (62%) felt her career was mediocre.
When it came to judging whether Beyonce aided or impeded Rowland’s success, fans were split with 35% agreeing versus 33% disagreeing that she did not impede on Kelly’s success.
Looking from the outside in, we can only assume from the information the media delivers, but either way, R&B fans still plan to support Ms. Kelly as she pursue a new direction in her career. In addition, 82% of surveyors would like her to release a new album.
Despite everything that has happened in her life, Kelly tells myFoxla that she’s “happy.”
kelly had the time of her life growing up with the knowles and why do she always get compared to beyonce they are two totally different people, and she has the same dance moves that beyonce has all she needs to do is get up on that stage and have a couple of fits and slob at the mouth and wear her panties and a bra out on the stage and do a few belly dances like beyonce , and then go and pose for playboy and get her a few movies under her belt she can act i saw the seat warmer and she was good in that movie if at first you don't succeed try and try again kelly will be just fine, she does not need a knowles to define her.
Do you really think that if Kelly had the same songwriters as Beyonce that she would not have been a hit? Instead Daddy Knowles left her songwriting in the hands of Solange (a teenager who have not yet grown into a great songwriter.) Sorry, but I think if Kelly would have gotten Irreplaceable, she would have made it no. 1. Kelly is pretty and she can dance. All that is missing is the butt pads. If you really want proof, look at how Solange's CD was promoted versus Kelly's and Michelle's. Come on now, Solange's CD was never going to be a mainstream hit. The style is geared towards a particular audience, and yet she was everywhere as if she was Michael Jackson or Whitney Houston comeback. Heck, she is still promoting that mess!
we all know bees dad always wanted beyonce to go solo the group was just a front Kelly is a way better singer than bee and if people can call all day for bee music they can vote for kellys too.bees dad is not going to see kelly have a number one song
Its not beyonce dad faught 4 kellys career falling!!!! She a grown women now she should knw wat she need 2 do 2 get where she needs 2 b n her career..........she talented she should figure it out on her own!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ris, you are so correct, thats why they had a falling out. I bet kelly wish she wouldve listened to brandy, LOL
and kelly need to release better material. her last cd was blah to me, but i did enjoy a couple of songs. well now thats ot under the knowles camp lets see what she do. only time will tell, now if she flop, whose to blame?
MET you a hater bicth
poor Kelly. she has a nice voice but she has no taste when it comes to selecting music. this latest dance track SUCKS.
Matthew has every right to do more for his daughter. Wouldn't you? However, it may have been a better decision that once DC disbanded to cut ties with Matthew for the possible "Conflict of interest" Beyonce, being that reason. Kelly probably should've looked at alternatives and hired someone else. Beyonce and Kelly love one another. Each of these artist are good in their own right. I have all the confidence that whomever Kelly employs to join her team, they will work extensively to garner her the success she is due.
Ummm i cuda swore Brandy told her that a looooong time ago. But noooo she didnt wanna listen smh
