麻豆约拍

On Monday Woman鈥檚 Hour, Jane Garvey听talks to US music star Kelis about her life-long love of food and music, and how she鈥檚 bringing both together in her forthcoming album Food. She talks about the changes she鈥檚 made to her life - becoming a cordon bleu chef, divorcing her rapper husband Nas when pregnant, and the joys of motherhood. She shares her thoughts on feminism and her bold and sexy image in her big Neptunes-produced nineties r鈥檔鈥檅 hits Caught Out There and Milkshake. And she explains how after growing up with jazz and home-cooked food in Harlem, she鈥檚 now fusing the two influences in her latest album, Food, with tracks like Jerk Ribs, Friday Fish Fry, and Biscuits N鈥� Gravy, and made with TV On The Radio鈥檚 Dave Sitek.

You can see and hear Kelis online - playing and talking at last weekend鈥檚 inaugural 麻豆约拍 听- by visiting the 6 Music website.
