Way Out West Festival 2008
Kelis graduated from her culinary school this week, and she’s back in the music business again. This Saturday, she performed at the Way out West Festival in Sweden. There are also some rumors about her working with Raphael Saadiq for her new album. When we’re talking about rumors, some are floating around that Kelis will be opening for the N.E.R.D./Common tour. Not sure if these are true, but take a look at this link.
For now take a look at the photos from Way Out West Festival by clicking the imabes below (thanks Jake for sending these over). There are also some live videos from the event after the jump.

Grammy Afterparty
In my last post, I wrote about Kelis controversial Grammy outfit, watch a video of Kelis and Nas explaining it to the CNN audience after the jump.
The-Raft.com has a short article about Kelis’ upcoming “The Hits” album:
Many artists strive to be innovative. Kelis does it naturally. Now nine years after her first release, Kelis are set to release her greatest hits album, ‘The Hits’, on March 3rd.
The New York born artist has always been in her own league, a singer and entertainer that others look to for inspiration.
“The Hits” features songs from her four albums; “Kaleidoscope”, “Wanderland”, “Tasty” and “Kelis Was Here”, plus some key collaborations with Ol’ Dirty Bastard (Got Your Money), Richard X (Finest Dreams), and N*E*R*D (Truth Or Dare).
The album is available for pre-order on amazon.com, it will be released in the US on on Mar 11, 2008 through Jive Records (March 4 in Europe). Here’s amazon’s product description:
Only a true artist has the ability to innovate an entire genre. Ever since debuting with her first album Kaleidoscope nearly ten years ago, Kelis has remained on the cutting edge of both fashion and music. As one of the first major pop stars to collaborate with the Grammy award-winning production duo The Neptunes, Kelis became a trendsetter for an entire generation of hip-hop and R&B artists. Through the incredible collection of songs found on her four albums, she has managed to stretch the barriers of modern day soul to incorporate hints of dance, rock and rap music.
With The Hits, fans will be able to trace the Harlem-born singer’s vast influence. Songs like her first ever single “Caught Out There” where the former pink-haired singer screamed “I hate you so much right now!” and her body rockin’ duet with Ol’ Dirty Bastard “Got Your Money” showcase the trendsetting songstress’ universal appeal. “Young, Fresh N’ New,” “Bossy,” and the racy “In Public” are also be included among Kelis’ greatest hits along with her chart-topping sing-along, “Milkshake.”
Kelis attended the Sony/BMG Grammy after party, she looked stunning, see photos by clicking the images below.

2008 Annual Grammy Awards
As you probably know Kelis & Nas attended the Grammy Awards yesterday, rocking a somewhat controversial outfit. Below is Nas’ explanation to the whole situation, given to rollingstone.com (images from the event, and some other Grammy related events will fallow)
When the awards were finally underway, Nas strolled backstage into the press room and caused a stir by wearing a black T-shirt with silver lettering that read Nigger, which is of course the name of his next album. “This album [will hopefully] open some awareness in our community and everywhere. We felt like shaking it up with something real,” he explained. Nas acknowledged that the album title and his shirt (wife Kelis was wearing a matching black tank) will cause people to “go crazy about it. But it’s cool … It’s the perfect time for it. I’m thirty-four years old — a husband, a father, a brother, a son — and me and my wife have to go on trial for just hanging outside, just being us,” he added, referring to Kelis’ March 2007 arrest in Miami Beach for allegedly screaming racial obscenities at two cops. “So that is why I had to stick with the title. A lot of people experience racial shit and they want to sweep it until the rug. As much as I’d like for this word to go away, the reality of it is so strong.” Don’t expect to see the couple’s reality show air anytime soon. They nixed it after not being happy with the first episode. Nas said, “It was boring, so we said no.”
