The slightly eccentric, milkshake drinking, knitting Kelis returns with the first single from her upcoming ‘Kelis Was Here’ album due in June. In its original mix ‘Bossy’ features rapper Too $hort and is a pure downbeat hip-hop jam made for America urban radio, but the devilishly talented Jesse Houk, under his Scumfrog protagonist guise, transform the down low into an essential dance jam that rides a riff from Chic’s perennial samplers favourite, ‘Chic Cheer’. The new house tempo perfectly suiting the afro centric singer’s wordy rhymes in much the same way Superchumbo first gave Missy Elliott a club edge.
