On Kelis' fifth album it would seem that she's made herself into a slightly edgier creature, what with all the wacky press photos and the severe album art. Keeping the blade sharp is Kelis' 4th of July - The Remixes EP, with contributions from Rusko, Calvin Harris, Richard X, Burns, and Fernando Garabay. We've got the Calvin Harris rework, which sees the producer reigning in his more rainbo-brite tendencies and surrounding Kelis with club pop that bangs hard, as any banger must.

4th of July - The Remixes drops June 29 and Flesh Tone drops July 6 on Interscope.
