Video: Kelis - 'Jerk Ribs'

Kelis is serving up some fierce fashion in the video for “Jerk Ribs,” the first single off her upcoming album Food. In the colorful clip, the fashionista takes us behind the scenes of her album packaging shoot. She gets glammed up and turns the streets of Mexico into a catwalk as Mister Cartoon photographs her. She also performs at a garden party, where a giraffe roams the property.

“This song is the cornerstone of my album,” Kelis told TIME. “So I wanted the video to look like my life, my love—back to the beginning.”

She is putting the finishing touches on her sixth album Food, due April 22. The 13 tracks were produced entirely by TV on the Radio’s Dave Sitek.

The Le Cordon Bleu-trained chef also stars in her own Cooking Channel special, “Saucy and Sweet,” premiering February 26 at 8:30 p.m.

Feast your eyes on Kelis’ latest creation.
