It has been approximately seven years since Kelis released any original music but she’s back today.
The ‘Milkshake’ hitmaker recently announced that she will be releasing her new single ‘Midnight Snacks’ on October 8. “This has been a long time coming,” she first teased the release on Sept. 26 with the artwork of the single on her Instagram, captioned, “I’m just sayin’.”
The new midtempo track from the Harlem native is now available on DSPs (currently only out in select international markets). The singer-turned-chef also launched a contest for her fans to give away boxes of midnight snacks and a signed copy of her cookbook.
