"Motivation" is a song recorded by American recording artist Kelly Rowland for her third studio album Here I Am (2011). The song was written by Jim Jonsin, Rico Love, Daniel Morris and Lil Wayne, with Jonsin producing the song and Lil Wayne having featured vocals. The R&B slow-jam was released as the fourth single from Here I Am on March 2, 2011, by Universal Motown Records.

Upon release, "Motivation" received favorable reviews from critics generally praising the sexiness of the song. Official remixes were produced for the song, including a dubstep-inspired electronic mix by Diplo and a rap remix by Busta Rhymes, Trey Songz and Fabolous.

In the United States, the song has peaked at number one on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart where it stayed seven weeks in a row, and number seventeen on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Rowland's second US top 20 hit (fourth top 30 overall) and her second highest performing single to date as a solo artist, behind "Dilemma". It was certified double platinum by the RIAA in May 2013.

An accompanying music video was directed by Sarah Chatfield, the director behind Rowland's previous video "Forever and a Day" (2010). It follows a number of sultry scenes where Rowland dances seductively amongst partially dressed dancers in a dimly-lit warehouse, with the entire video tinged in blue light. "Motivation" was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration at the 54th Grammy Awards. Rowland sang the song with Trey Songz at the 2011 BET Awards ceremony.

Background and release

Here I Am was originally scheduled for release in 2010, but was pushed back numerous times. Initially the dance-influenced "Commander" served as the album's lead single for international territories while two separate singles were serviced in the United States. "Rose Colored Glasses" for the pop format and "Grown Woman" for the urban format. [1] [2] Rowland decided in September 2010 to re-enter the recording studios to work on new material for the album. [3] This, coupled with creative issues such as naming the album, led to multiple pushbacks. "Motivation" was announced as the title for the album's new lead single during New York Fashion Week. [4] It debuted online via Rap-Up magazine's website on March 2, 2011. [5]

Speaking of how the record came about, Rowland said "Motivation came about when I was in the studio with [producers] Jim Jonsin and Rico Love, and we kind of were just vibing. I told Rico I wanted something really sexy ... and he came up with 'Motivation' along with Jim. It turned into this amazing record... I played [ 'Motivation' for Lil Wayne  ] and he got on it, and it was just as simple as that." [6] Along with the single announcement, Rap-Up said fans could expect the video and a remix produced by Diplo to premiere in April 2011. [5] However, the electronic remix, produced by Diplo, premiered via Rap-Up on March 8, 2011. [7]

"Motivation" is a R&B slow jam and electropop song written by Richard Butler (Rico Love), Jim Jonsin, Dwayne Carter and Danny Morris. [5] [8] [9] The racy lyrics center around Rowland asking her man to use his hands all over her body, and are accompanied by a "synth-saturated beat" produced by Jonsin. [5] In terms of instruments, "Motivation" uses sparse keyboard notes, programmed beats and pulsing synths in the chorus. [10] The song has a medium tempo of 140 beats per minute. [11] Wayne adds a rap verse complementing Rowland's seductive suggestions, using the kitchen and a car as metaphors for sex. [5] [10] According to Scott Shetler from AOL Music, Rowland uses the lyrics to promise "to be her lover's motivation." [10]

Rowland called the record a mixture between dance and mash-up. [4] When asked by MTV what Rowland thought of the song, she said,"It has that personality and characteristic to it that I don't think anybody can deny. That's why when Wayne dropped that insane verse on there ... I was like, 'You really brought that up even more.' He went into the studio and just did it. I don't think it takes much for Wayne to think. He just does it. He's so admirable." [6]

Critical reception

Ryan Brockington, from the New York Post, was amongst the first to review "Motivation." In his review, he said "The single is a big leap from the dance club synth pop that Kelly has been releasing the past year and it seems like she might be trying to shimmy her way back into the hip-hop world by teaming up with the Midas touch vocals of Lil Wayne." [12] Both Rap-Up and AOL Music's Scott Shetler called the song "sexy." [5] [10] Becky Bain from Idolator disliked the song for not being memorable. The short review was summed up with the closing phrase, "she's going to need another hit to help promote her album when it finally is ready to drop." [8]

Mikey Fresh of Vibe said that Rowland readies the song with "just a touch of sensuality". [13] Wesley Case from The Baltimore Sun complimented the song's sexy quality. "If this isn't the year's hands-down sexiest song thus far, it has to be in the discussion. Rowland, whose sultry voice could get a priest hot, weaving in and out of the minimal beat, and setting the table for Lil Wayne's stuttering, after-hours guest-verse. Stack the pieces together and it's an understated knockout that gets sexier with each spin." [14]

Shahryar Rizvi of Dallas Observer felt that the song was a "female-fronted counterpart" to the smooth, slow-tempo R&B vibe that R. Kelly and Trey Songz usually proffer. [15] Nathan Slavik of Billboard ranked it number five on their "Critics' Picks: 20 Best Songs of 2011". [16] [17] [18] Rap-Up ranked "Motivation" number 6 on their year-end best songs list for 2011. [18]

"Motivation" was nominated for two awards at the 2011 Soul Train Music Awards including Best Dance Performance and Song of the Year. It won the award for Song of the Year and was also nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration at the 54th Grammy Awards, which was held on February 12, 2012.

In 2019, The Associated Press named the song number 2 out of 25 songs listed as a part of its "Top songs of the decade". [19]

The producer of "Motivation", Jim Jonsin, said he was proud and confident of the song's success. "I'm really happy that things are going well for her on this record.

[34] Furthermore, "Motivation" reached the top ten in other Billboard component charts, peaking at number three on the Hot Ringtones chart, number ten on the Radio Songs chart and number one on the Hot 100 Recurrents chart.

[6] The video made its world premiere on BET's 106 & Park on April 4, 2011. [39]

The video opens in a blue-colored hue lit warehouse, with Rowland standing in the passageway before it cuts to her walking through the building checking out the ladies and men mingling.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Dirty Laundry (Kelly Rowland song)</span> 2013 R&B song by Kelly Rowland

"Dirty Laundry" is a song recorded by American recording artist Kelly Rowland, for her fourth studio album, Talk a Good Game (2013). Co-written and produced by The-Dream, the R&B ballad was serviced to radio as the album's second single on May 15, 2013, and was released for digital download on May 21, 2013, through Republic Records. The record candidly documents the time in Rowland's life after the release of her debut album Simply Deep (2002); Rowland speaks of her envy of former groupmate Beyoncé's solo success and the domestic abuse she suffered during a previous relationship. Critics praised the sparse piano-led melody, as well as Rowland's openness about her jealousy of Knowles and the inspiring message about leaving an abusive relationship. The official remix features a new introduction from Rowland and new verses from R. Kelly.
