第二张专辑《Wanderland》在英国有8万张销售成绩。2003年第三张专辑《Tasty》中的单曲《Milkshake》成为2004年英国年度畅销单曲前10名。2006年的专辑《Kelis was here》中首支单曲《Bossy》获得美国流行单曲榜第16名和节奏蓝调/嘻哈榜第11名的好成绩,即使新生代R&B女歌手多如过江鲫,但Kelis亮眼的表现已被视为继TLC、Missy Elliott、Lauryn Hill及Macy Gray后最受瞩目的R&B乐坛新星。
There is nothing special about me
I am just a lil star
If it seems like I'm shining brightly
It's probably a reflection of something you already are
I forget about myself sometime
When there's so many other around
When deep inside you feels darkest
That is where I can always be found
That is where I can always be found
That is where I can always be found
Just keep trying and trying
It's just a matter of timing
Though the grinding is tiring
Don't let 'em stop you from smiling
Just keep trying and trying
Sooner or later you'll find it
It's surprising how inspiring
It is to see you shining
Cause in the dark of the night you're all I can see
and you sure look like a star to me
