“I feel alive, and it’s a really good time in my head, musically, so we’ll see.Purchase and download this album in a wide variety of formats depending on your needs. “I’m definitely working, and it’s really good,” says Kelis. All she knows is that making music (and food) feels real good right now. She’s working on new material but she’s not sure what the next album is about, yet hints that it may be something reminiscent of her past. She’s also going to start producing butters and cheeses for Bounty & Full, which will get a brand revamp later this year. This year, she’s planning to return to television-she previously appeared on the Cooking Channel’s “Saucy & Sweet” in 2014, complemented by her sixth album Food.

What is governing her life is music, her business, growing the farm, and a future TV opportunity. I’m not afraid of it in the sense that yes it’s a necessary tool, but it’s not something I take seriously. She adds, “It’s just all so adverse to human existence and nature. It’s just powerful enough to be irritating but not powerful enough to change anything.” “Now it’s not interesting anymore, because it has changed how people post, changed how people think, and changed what’s cool or great,” she says. Social media has lost whatever interesting edge it once had when it started, says Kelis, before quickly slipping into some shallower vortex.

You can say Kelis has managed to carefully curate each portion of her life-debut with game-changing album, release more hit songs, attend culinary school, get a TV show, write a book.

After training as a professional saucier at Le Cordon Bleu, she launched her own food line, Bounty & Full, and released her first cookbook, “My Life on a Plate” in 2015. A decade had passed, and she started to think about what else she wanted do, so she become a chef. When the album reached its 10-year anniversary, Kelis had somewhat of an epiphany about her life. In a way, Kaleidoscope has instead served as a life marker for the singer. I don’t have to feel connected to myself or who I am through my songs.” I’m not someone who listens to myself all the time. “I can’t really say that I feel connected to anything. “I guess I really don’t think in those terms,” says Kelis. It’s something I’ve done, just like anything else that I’ve done.”Īfter two decades, it’s hard for Kelis to even pinpoint a Kaleidoscope track that still resonates with her and admits that she doesn’t even listen to her own music. “I’m not going to sit down and have philosophical conversations about a song of mine,” she says. On Kaleidoscope, or any album, Kelis doesn’t look back or linger on her songs too often. Sometimes it feels like it’s been another lifetime.”Īn anniversary edition of Kaleidoscope features song versions available for the first time, including “Caught Out There (Neptunes Extended Mix)” alternate mixes of “Get Along With You,” including the “Morales Club Mix,” “Soul Inside Radio Mix,” “Mix Show,” “Pharrell Edit,” and a “Bump & Flex Radio Edit.” A translucent orange vinyl edition will also be released March 6. “It has its moments,” Kelis tells American Songwriter. Now 20 years later, Kaleidoscope is still Kelis’ most dynamic body of music. (Kelis recently said The Neptunes never honored their initial agreements, which prevented her from receiving any money from the sales of the debut and follow up, 2001’s Wanderland.)

Kaleidoscope was a force of the artist and producer, forging the young production team of The Neptunes’ Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo and the New York City born and raised, Harlem-bred singer.
