Run Kelly, Run!

Kelly Rowland and Mathew Knowles have announced the end of their longtime business relationship, but both say they will always remain family.

The pair released a joint statement Wednesday announcing that he will no longer serve as her manager:

Kelly Rowland:

"Mathew Knowles has been a positive influence in my career. I have had great success under his guidance - both as a member of Destiny's Child and with my solo projects. Although we have decided to part ways professionally, the Knowles family and the entire Music World Entertainment team will always be my family."


translation: "I am fleeing now while I still am in my 20s before Beyonce and her daddy fuck up my career even further. I am a star in my OWN right, muthafuckas!!!

Mathew Knowles:
"After a very positive meeting between Kelly Rowland and myself, we have amicably agreed to end our professional relationship. My company, Music World, will continue to manage Destiny's Child as a group. As an artist Kelly has incredible talent and I only wish her the best. We will always be family first and foremost, and as a dad I only have love for Kelly."

translation: We finally have let Solange out the basement and we will throw her raggewdy ass into DC as a last resort!

We here at Society Sex think Kelly should have done this a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time ago.

Better late than NEVER!
