1999年发行首张专辑《Kaleidoscope万花筒》，备受关注，并为她赢得英国音乐奖“最佳国际新进艺人”和NME“最佳节奏蓝调女歌手”的奖项。崭露头角的Kelis 2000年在欧美各地巡回，其杰出表现受U2、Moby等乐坛大哥大盛赞，并获邀与Moby、Busta Rhymes、Foxy BrownUsher、Bjork、No Doubt及Neptunes等前辈合作。

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。

第四张专辑『Kelis Was Here』，包含酷莉丝自己共动员多达十名製作人协力操盘。首支登上美国流行单曲榜Top16+节奏蓝调/嘻哈榜Top11的单曲”Bossy”，请来西岸饶舌狠角色Too $hort助饶；”Blindfold Me”加入强力电流交错嘻哈重击节拍；请来红翻全球黑眼豆豆精神领袖will.i.am操刀合作的”Weekend”，千变万化豆豆式桥段有趣谱入；符合美国佬喜爱的嘻哈作”Aww S!”，酷莉丝在声音表情上作了极具戏剧化演出，同时带领饶舌新秀Smoke帮腔；英美两地皆吃香的嘻哈饶舌团Goodie Mob以及Gnarls Barkley灵魂人物Cee-Lo，两人施展出动人灵韵在”Lil` Star”中，缓调放克灵魂音轨配上两人真假音搭腔，是专辑中百分百上乘抒情佳作。

歌词：

Lil’ Star

There is nothing special about me
I am just a lil star
If it seems like I’m shining
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 feel the 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
There is nothing special about me
I am just a lil star
If you try to reach out an touch me
you’ll see that I’m not really that far
I may not be the brightest nor am I the last one you’ll see
But as long as you notice, that’s just fine with me
Everything’s just fine with me
Everything’s just fine with me
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
There is nothing special about me
I am just a lil star
I’ve been running and jumping, but barely
Getting, getting over the bar
I plan on being much more than I, am but that’s in due time
But until then I’m guilty, and being humans my crime
Just Being human that is my crime
Being human that is my crime
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
