The hip-hop star's career appears to have been in decline for some time, culminating in the lackluster display of latest album Kelis Was Here in 2006.
It has now been claimed that the singer, who is married to Nas, has left the label and is now seeking a new home.
Kelis released two albums on Jive--2003's Tasty and last year's Kelis Was Here--and is now said to be working on an independent record with Cee-Lo, one half of Gnarls Barkley.
Her manager Jeff Rabhan commented: "It was a case of being in the ever-shrinking world of the record industry and finding herself on a label she wasn't signed to and without a champion."
"She's a different kind of artist--very image- and style-driven. It's either something you get or you don't," explained Rabhan, who also said Kelis is considering going into acting.
