R&B songstress Kelly Rowland has reportedly left her record label Universal Music after releasing only two studio albums under the label.

Reports claim the singer departed from the label way back in December, although speculations are rife that she has been dropped.

Kelly is said to have requested a release from her contract due to poor sales of her last year's critically acclaimed album 'Talk A Good Game' which sold only 215,000 copies in total.

The situation is alleged to have been fuelled when Kelly signed on as judge on the third season of the US X Factor. According to a CNN correspondent Jawn Murray, Kelly's team asked the label "to release a new single to capitalize off the eight million viewers the show averaged each week. The label chose not to capitalize off of Rowland’s involvement on the show and the singer asked to be released from her contact."
