If you are a regular visitor to GlobalGrind, then you would know that Beyonce is the one usually making big headlines. But this morning it was ex-Destiny’s Child band member Kelly Rowland making waves when she released her latest single, The-Dream-written “Dirty Laundry.” In the song, Kelly talks about being jealous of Beyonce’s success and about being in a abusive relationship.

After the song was released, Billboard released an exclusive interview they did with the singer. Speaking on the track, Kelly says:  

“It was very emotional. It took me days to record. I had to get past being so upset and actually sing the song, not sob through it. I always hope that my music can inspire someone, the same way other artists inspire me.  Dream said, ‘I want to write you a record so that people will know exactly who you are, underneath it all.'”

The-Dream wrote the song, but it was Kelly’s stories he was telling; he tells Billboard

“What unfolds on TV or on the Internet, it’s never really that. You think it is but it’s just not. When you have a stage like Kelly has, you should talk about that part of your life. I think Kelly’s way deeper than that.”

“Dirty Laundry” is the latest single from Kelly’s upcoming Talk a Good Game album, which drops on June 18th.
