Ahead of Kelly Rowland's hotly-anticipated headline set at Mighty Hoopla 2023 festival in London, we are calling all pop fans and fellow Rowland Stoners to unite for this very special episode! It has been three years since we covered Kelendria's first two albums, "Simply Deep" and "Ms Kelly", and now we are completing the journey with a sumptuous deep-dive into her third album era, "Here I Am", taking place between 2010 and 2011.

Following the global smash of 'When Love Takes Over' with David Guetta, our Kelendria was ready to embrace both dance-pop and R&B worlds! This episode follows her journey as she takes control of her career and snaps back with a new major label deal and management, as well as becoming an iconic judge on the X Factor UK, which was watched by an average of 10 million people each week.

Together, this episode traces Kelly's journey from the club banger 'Commander' through to 'Down For Whatever'. Everything in between is a wild ride traversing dance, R&B and hip-hop and contemporary pop... and we love the range! This episode will not only bring you highlights from Kelly's third solo album but also the singles: 'Commander', 'Rose Coloured Glasses', 'Grown Woman', 'Forever and A Day', 'Motivation', 'What A Feeling' (with Alex Gaudino), 'Lay It On Me', 'Down For Whatever' and more.
