Did you think Kelly Rowland and Cliff “Method Man” Smith were going to make a movie and not sing at some point? As their characters, Leah and Jarrett, work out their problems and their feelings in the new Prime Video rom-com Relationship Goals, there are two memorable scenes where Jarrett and Leah show off their voices in the car.
Jarrett clearly has incredible music taste because he belts out J.J. Fad’s “Supersonic,” Tevin Campbell’s “Can We Talk,” Boyz II Men’s “End of the Road” effortlessly while keeping his eyes on the road. At the end of the movie, when Leah and Jarrett are back together, she sings Keyshia Cole‘s “Love” alongside him.
Rowland and Smith are both masters of music, so this was quite a treat. The Destiny’s Child member told Swooon that “so many ideas” were tossed around as song possibilities. “We were all putting playlists together.”
The singer and actress turned to her costar to compliment him. “It really was this one that sold it,” she said about Smith, who thought the song choices were “perfect.” Rowland pointed out, “You’ve gotta remember, it’s take after take after take, so he gave us something different every time.” Give us the bloopers, Relationship Goals!
Now that Leah and Jarrett have given their love a second chance, what’s next for them? Rowland revealed, “I see them definitely having an interesting relationship because they’re both alphas, so it would be interesting to see how their worlds morph together. I think that would be so interesting because she has to chill out a little bit.”
According to Smith, Leah and Jarrett like to have a little fire in their relationship. “I think they welcome the conflict because it makes their relationship stronger,” he said.
