From rom-com soundtrack to real world replay, this duet is bridging decades of vibe and storytelling

Kelly Rowland and Method Man are proving that legend status doesn’t expire with time or trends. The duo just released “Complicated,” a new single from the soundtrack of their upcoming romantic comedy Relationship Goals, slated to premiere February 4 on Prime Video. The track pairs Rowland’s smooth, expressive vocals with Method Man’s unmistakable lyrical cadence over a soulful, hip-hop-tinged beat that explores the twists and turns of love and communication.

What makes Complicated feel fresh is its blend of classic R&B warmth and modern vulnerability. Rowland delivers lines about the universal push and pull of relationships, singing about how talking things out can feel simpler in theory than practice. Method Man adds a grounded perspective in his verse, reminding listeners that life and love can be complex but often get harder when people overthink instead of opening up.

The track is produced by Jack Dine with a writing credit from Jessie Reyez, giving it a layered, emotional feel that lands well both in soundtrack mode and on playlists outside the film. This pairing imagines a sound that nods to the old school while still feeling undeniably now.

Relationship Goals centers on Rowland’s character Leah Caldwell, a TV producer aiming to be the first woman to run New York’s top morning show, while her ex-Jarrett Roy, played by Method Man, reenters her life. Their chemistry on and off screen amplifies the emotional core of Complicated, blurring lines between soundtrack and story.
