Kelly Rowland

Rowland subsequently split from manager Matthew Knowles, as well as her label. She scored a number one hit in the U.K. as vocalist and co-writer of EDM producer David Guetta's "When Love Takes Over," which was also nominated for a Grammy in the category of Best Dance Recording. Rowland signed a new solo deal with Universal Motown, completed her third album, Here I Am, and after several delays released it in July 2011. The slow and steamy single "Motivation," produced by Jim Jonsin and Rico Love and featuring Lil Wayne, rode the top of Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart for several weeks, crossed into the Top 20 of the Hot 100, and later earned Rowland another Grammy nomination for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration. A stylistically broad set, Here I Am also contained collaborations with Guetta, Rodney Jerkins, Stargate, and Ne-Yo. Talk a Good Game, the singer's fourth solo album, followed on the Republic label in June 2013 with appearances from Beyoncé and Michelle Williams, as well as the-Dream, Wiz Khalifa, and Pusha T. This set entered the Billboard 200 at number four and placed two singles on the charts.
