Kelly Rowland's "heart pumps" for 'Talk A Good Game' album tracks

Kelly Rowland spoke to Billboard about her fourth studio album, 'Talk a Good Game' which is due out on June 4. 

Rowland said only a dozen songs willl appear on the album despite recording a lot more, she said: 

"I think I recorded around 70-something songs for this album. I had to narrow it down to 12 – you know hard that is!?! Especially when you’re in love, like your heart pumps for 35 of them.

"I kept going back and forth with my A&R and my manager, we’ve all been on this incredible journey together, and they’re just like ‘Save it for the next album!’ Because you just get so passionate and excited about these songs, you lived with them, you birthed them along with the producers. You become so attached.”

Rowland also revealed her excitement to be playing a concert after months trapped in a recording studio. Speaking of her Courvoisier Cognac concert, she said:

“I was excited to perform because it’s been a minute since I’ve been onstage. I’ve been in the studio so much, this is a nice little escapism from all the hard work.”
