Caught Out There (AV8 Remix)

Kelis recorded the song for her debut album Kaleidoscope in 1998–1999 at Mastersound Recording Studios in Virginia Beach, Virginia, with the Neptunes, Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo, handling production. Andrew Coleman and Dave Hummel are credited among the recording team, with Serban Ghenea on mixing. The track introduced Kelis as a striking new voice and established the Neptunes as major hitmakers at the end of the 1990s. Its confrontational hook and club-ready production gave her debut a breakout identity in both R&B and pop circles. The song remained Kelis’s signature early record and one of the defining Neptunes productions, later appearing on compilations and remix releases. Its blunt, chant-driven structure kept it in rotation for DJs, remixers, and later artists mining late-1990s R&B attitude.
