History

There is no new material included on "The Hits". [ [http://www.ultimatekelis.com/ Ultimatekelis.Com - Your Exclusive Source For Everything Kelis ] ] It was originally going to be called "Good Stuff - The Best of Kelis", however it was changed for unknown reasons. Despite its small success, the album doesn't include the single "Blindfold Me". On March 9 2008, the album debuted on the UK Album Chart at a very disappointing #71. This album is said to be a last-minute attempt to make money off of Kelis' previous works before she moves on to a new record label and releases her fifth studio album.fact|date=April 2008
