On ‘My Milkshake’, Kelis said: “’Milkshake’ has been an important part of my career and it’s still fun all these years later. When I heard the remake from Freejak, I felt it was a dope version I could get behind. I had lots of fun re-recording the original vocal and re-introducing the song to a whole new generation.”
