KELIS "TASTY"

Star Trak Records

This woman knows how to multi-task. Just listen to her latest album for proof. She'll steam things up with her man Nas on "In Public," she'll shine Motown on "Sugar Honey Iced Tea," then rob a bank on "Stick Up" and still have time after all that to rock on "Keep It Down." Upping the ante in urban music, "Tasty" is saturated in sugar and the musical influence of master producers, the Neptunes. Don't get it wrong, though; Kelis is the star of the show. Her gorgeous voice and spotless style leaves very little leg room for anything else to sidetrack. As you will find when you listen to this album, thankfully, Kelis has a lot more up her short sleeves than that damnable "Milkshake" song.
