Motivation (Kelly Rowland)

"Motivation" is a song performed by American recording artist Kelly Rowland, taken from her third studio album Here I Am (2011). The song was written by Jim Jonsin, Rico Love, Daniel Morris and Lil Wayne, with Jonsin producing the song and Lil Wayne having featured vocals. The R&B slow-jam serves as the lead single from Here I Am and was released from April 8, 2011. It was certified platinum by the RIAA in August 2011.
Upon release, "Motivation" received favorable reviews from critics generally praising the sexiness of the song and Lil Wayne's rap verse. In the United States, the song has peaked at number one on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart where it stayed seven weeks in a row, and number seventeen on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Rowland's highest performing single as a solo artist and first U.S top 20 hit as lead singer to date. Official remixes were produced for the song, including an dubstep-inspired electronic mix by Diplo and a rap remix by Busta Rhymes, Trey Songz and Fabolous.
