Kelly Rowland discography

American recording artist Kelly Rowland has released four studio albums, two compilation albums, one box set, two extended plays and forty-four singles, including twenty as a featured artist and five promotional singles. Rowland began her career in 1997 with one of the best-selling girl groups, Destiny's Child, who have sold around 60 million records worldwide. As a solo artist, Rowland has sold 40 million records worldwide.

During the hiatus of Destiny's Child, Rowland released her debut solo album Simply Deep (2002) through Columbia Records. It included her worldwide number-one single "Dilemma" with rapper Nelly, which spent ten consecutive weeks atop the US Billboard Hot 100. Other singles released from the album include "Stole", "Can't Nobody" and "Train on a Track". "Stole" peaked in the top thirty of the Billboard Hot 100 and top five in most other regions including the United Kingdom, where it reached number two. The album was a commercial success; more than 2.5 million copies were sold worldwide. It was subsequently certified platinum in the UK, and gold in Australia, Ireland, New Zealand and the United States.

After the disbandment of Destiny's Child in 2005, Rowland was featured on Trina's top-twenty single, "Here We Go". Rowland's second studio album, Ms. Kelly, was released in 2007 and debuted at number six on the US Billboard 200. It featured the singles "Like This", "Work", "Ghetto" and "Daylight". "Like This" peaked in the top thirty of the Billboard Hot 100 and top five in Ireland and the UK. "Work" reached the top ten in several countries including Australia, Italy, New Zealand, Switzerland and the UK. Ms. Kelly was considerably less successful than its predecessor, having failed to earn any chart certificates. Columbia Records ended their contract with Rowland due to the album's lack of commercial success.

Between 2009 and 2011, Rowland was featured on a number of commercially successful singles by European artists Tiziano Ferro, David Guetta, Tinie Tempah and Alex Gaudino. Rowland's collaboration with Guetta, "When Love Takes Over", became a worldwide number-one hit. She later signed a new record deal with Universal Motown Records, and through the label, released her third studio album Here I Am (2011). It debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 and produced the singles "Commander", "Rose Colored Glasses", Forever and a Day", "Motivation", "Lay It on Me" and "Down for Whatever". "Commander" reached the top ten in several charts worldwide, and "Motivation" topped the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart for seven weeks.

Rowland's fourth studio album, Talk a Good Game, was released in 2013 through Republic Records. The album debuted at number four on the Billboard 200 and included the singles "Kisses Down Low", which was certified gold in the US, and "Dirty Laundry".
