Ms Kelly Album

[Beronike Watkin]

AmericanR&B singer-songwriter R. Kelly has released 18 studio albums, five compilation albums, one soundtrack album, six video albums, one mixtape, two extended play, and 133 singles (including 49 as a featured artist and 12 promotional singles).

R. Kelly received mostly positive reviews from music critics. Callum Jones of Rolling Stone wrote, Kelly "has grown out of his unthinking misogyny to the point where he makes a plea in 'As I Look Into My Life' to 'brothers in the ghetto' to 'love and respect that woman and bring her happiness.' Make love not war is an old message, but Kelly delivers it with sincerity. By spreading it in the hood in these violent times, he believes he's doing God's work, and who's to say he is wrong? Predecessors like Marvin Gaye and Prince have shown that great sex is spiritual, and Kelly's make-out music ranks with the best."

In 1996, songs from this album were featured several times in the first season of the UPN sitcom Moesha. "Hump Bounce" featured in the third episode, "Down Low (Nobody Has to Know)" was featured in the tenth episode and "You Remind Me of Something" can be heard and was referenced in the fifth episode.

In baring his own experiences, fighting through weakness and pain to draw on his own strength, Ruston Kelly created an album that turns his own experiences and the layers of his own existence into a universal message laced with hope.

Dive into the enchanting jazz world of Grace Kelly with her latest masterpiece, "Grace Kelly with Strings: At The Movies," a signed CD that bridges the nostalgic elegance of Charlie Parker's era with contemporary brilliance. This album, marking a significant return in Kelly's illustrious 20-year career, offers a rich tapestry of cinematic classics, including an inspired rendition of "The Way You Look Tonight," alongside an all-star lineup featuring Sean Jones and Cory Wong. With its intricate arrangements and heartfelt tribute to her saxophone idol, this record is a profound reflection of Kelly's passion for cinema and storytelling, promising an unforgettable auditory journey through the magic of film.

In an extraordinary fusion of past and present, Grace Kelly announces her 15th album in a 20-year prolific recording career, "Grace Kelly with Strings: At The Movies." This project, deeply inspired by the legendary "Charlie Parker with Strings," is set for release on March 1, 2024, via PAZZ Productions. It marks Kelly's first jazz record since 2016 and represents a significant milestone, showcasing her enduring commitment to artistic evolution and excellence.

Joining Kelly in this venture is an all-star cast including Tony Award winning and Grammy nominee producer, Bryan Carter, along with a powerhouse of millennial arrangers steeped in jazz history, such as Grammy and Tony Award-winning Charlie Rosen and Grammy Award winner Steven Fiefke. Special guests on the record include esteemed jazz trumpeter, Sean Jones, and guitar sensation, Cory Wong.

R. Kelly is somehow releasing music during his 30-year prison bid. On Friday (December 9), an album called I Admit appeared on all major streaming services. While the 13-track has no guest appearances, it included tracks "I Found Love," "Good Ole Days," "Freaky Sensation," and "I Admit It (I Did It)."

Kelly originally uploaded a full, 19-minute version of "I Admit It (I Did It)" on SoundCloud. On the song, Kelly divulges about helping people who have betrayed him before admitting to sexual intercourse "with a couple of fans," and having an affair on a former girlfriend with her friend. Also on the song, Kelly professes his love for the late Aaliyah, who he married when the R&B singer was underage.

Although DSPs attribute the album's release to Legacy Recordings, which is Sony Music's catalog division, Okayplayer reached out and received no official comment from the label. According to what a source told Billboard, Legacy Recordings was not involved with the project. The album was actually uploaded by distributor Ingrooves, which is backed by Universal Music Group. Soon after, Ingrooves executives requested that streaming services pull the release. By early afternoon, the album was down.

What makes this album's release more complicated is that singles from it were being shared even before it dropped. A scroll through Kelly's music on Tidal showed that songs "Air," "I Found Love," "Planet," and "Where's Love, When You Need It" have all been out prior to the album's release. According to the streaming service, the singles came out September 9, September 30, October 21, and November 11, respectively. Similar to the album, the tracks are also attributed to Legacy. Some of the songs even made their way to TikTok shortly after they were released, with a pro-Kelly TikTok account sharing videos with "Air" and "I Found Love" in early and late September, respectively.

The disgraced singer-songwriter is currently serving a 30-year prison sentence for sex trafficking, and has also been convicted of a separate child pornography charge from September. Kelly, 55, has yet to be sentenced for the latter charge.

Until now, I have kept the majority of our wedding album closely guarded to my heart, and have only published a handful of images on social media. It was almost like I wanted to keep the most sacred day of our lives bottled up just for us to enjoy. Until now. We need more love, and more hugs, and more happy tears. I hope the warmth and delight of our day can transcend the screen to brighten your day.

In 2022, Clarkson graced fans with an immensely successful EP of her most jaw-dropping Kellyoke covers, but the excitement didn't end there: Clarkson also begun working on a new album of original hits. On a hilarious New Year's Eve-themed Instagram Live for The Kelly Clarkson Show, Clarkson chatted with producers about some of her predictions for 2023.

That's when Clarkson announced she had a new album in the works, with fans thrilled to see new music from the mythic singer. Naturally, Clarkson didn't leave room for disappointment with her tenth studio release. Here's everything to know about Clarkson's explosive 2023 album, Chemistry.

After teasing fans with smash lead singles "mine" and "me," Clarkson released Chemistry on June 23, 2023. Clarkson dropped the deluxe version of Chemistry in September 2023, announcing the release on Instagram.

Clarkson always delivers a certified hit, and Chemistry was a sizzling sensation. Clarkson received a 2024 Grammy nomination for Best Pop Vocal Album for Chemistry, adding yet another Grammy nomination to her esteemed lineup of awards and honors. As one of Clarkson's most vulnerable and celebrated releases, Clarkson's recent nomination is well-earned.

After seeing the immense success of Chemistry, Clarkson upped the ante by taking her new album to the Las Vegas strip. In the summer of 2023, Clarkson performed a 10-night residency in Las Vegas titled "Chemistry: An Intimate Evening with Kelly Clarkson." Clarkson performed a delightful combination of cherished hits and Chemistry tracks, delivering more energizing performances to her frenzied fanbase.

I get why people would say that, because obviously I'm divorced now and I haven't had music since then. So it's like, "Oh, what is she going to say?" We're all guilty of that with any artists we love. And unfortunately, from tragedy and hurtful places, a lot of music that is highly relatable comes out of that. I'm not offended by it by any means.

But it was really important to me to have a full scope of a relationship and not just the negative. That's because you only see what was happening in the end and you don't remember that's not what it was the whole time. There were some beautiful moments like, how lucky am I to have felt that, to have been in love, to have that chemical reaction with someone?

I think anyone going through something like that, the tough part about it is, no one knows exactly what you're going through, everybody's situation is so different. So that's so isolating and you feel so alone.

I remember, even after I wrote my whole record, Lucious ended up coming out with this album called Second Nature, [and] I have worn that album out. I relate to so many of those songs and you could definitely tell a lot of it was about a relationship not working out. So to find a connection like that is so healing, and I hope that my album does that for someone.

There's a purpose for it like, OK I went through something that maybe other people, maybe this will make them feel less alone, you know, when they're crying on their floor and their world is a dumpster fire.

Why isnt MGK's black flag mix tape on spotify? i understand its not necessarily an album but a free mixtape, but it should still be added so I dont have to listen to that separately from my spotify list.

Spotify tries really hard to get music available on their service, but in the end the availability of music on Spotify is up to the artist and their music label.

This thread by Spotify staff explains why some music is not available:
