"I thought it was a beautiful and pure, creative safe space, but it ended up not being that at all," she mused. Revealing that she met the pair "through a mutual friend at performing arts school," Kelis jumped headfirst into working with them. Still incredibly proud of it, the songstress especially recognizes "the femaleness of the album, of the freaking outspokenness of it, the blackness of it, the alternativeness of it." Unfortunately for Kelis, Kaleidoscope also brings back bitter memories of her once-friends, The Neptunes, and in particular, Williams and Chad Hugo. Speaking with The Guardian in 2020, Kelis gushed about her greatest success - her debut album from 1999, Kaleidoscope. As the outlet noted, along with her acclaimed cookbook, "She has appeared as a guest judge on Bravo's Top Chef Masters, starred in her own shows on the Food Network and Cooking Channel." Damn right, Kelis' cooking is better than yours. That same year, the songstress released a cookbook titled My Life on a Plate, which tells "Kelis' personal story through the food she creates."Īccording to Cuisine Noir, as a kid in New York, "Kelis watched her mom, who was a chef, run her catering business out of their home." That alone was the groundwork that inspired her to pursue her own culinary ambitions so many years later. "It's funny, though, because even having gone to school and having done everything that every other trained chef has done, people still want to question or discredit or make it like, 'Oh, cute!'" At the end of the day, Kelis' accomplishments are nothing to scoff at. "I have seven albums under my belt and I've never felt so accomplished," the former chart-topper told Time in 2015.
