Kelis has unveiled a music video for her new single, a mid-tempo slower jam titled 4th of July (Fireworks), for our viewing pleasure … behold, here are a few screencaps of Kelis gettin’ her groove on in the desert while fireworks explode overhead:

Kelis’ “4th of July (Fireworks)” finally comes out in full after being teased through set pictures and short snippet. It has the 30-year-old Grammy-nominated singer strutting her way on the desert and features her performing in front of fireworks among other scenes. Shot in the scorching desert outside Los Angeles, the new clip is co-directed by Kelis, Rankin and Nicole Ehrlich. It is described as a “spectacular array of visual stimulation seeing Kelis play dynamically upon the four elements of the universe.” “4th of July” itself is confirmed to be included in Kelis’ forthcoming studio album “Flesh Tone”. The new song will be showcased live for the very first time on North American TV when she visits “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” on June 18. Several other TV appearances are already lined up and can be checked on Kelis’ official website where detailed info of her “All Hearts” tour which will start on July 23 can also be found.

While I really love the harder, faster songs that Kelis tends to put out I can’t really say a bad thing about the slower jams that are featured on her new album Flesh Tone. I think the album is so solidly perfect, I love every song I’ve heard thus far … and this song is no exception. Check out the video in full, after the jump …


Not only am I super excited for the release of Flesh Tone next month but I’m equally excited for Kelis’s co-headlining tour with Robyn which kicks off here in LA on July 23. This will be the Summer of Kelis … at least, I hope it will be. She rules, y’all … what do YOU think of this song/music video?
