"In Public" is a song by American R&B singer-songwriter Kelis, featuring American rapper Nas. It was written by Rockwilder and Kelis and produced by Rockwilder for Kelis' third studio album, Tasty (2003). As the song title implies, its lyrics deal with public sex.
The song was released in the United Kingdom and Ireland as the album's fourth and final single in early April 2005. Like previous hits "Trick Me" and "Millionaire", "Trick Me" was not released in Kelis' native United States. Although no video was made for the song, it still managed to make it onto the UK Singles Chart, concretely landing at number seventeen, due to strong radio and club play. The track was originally due to be released as a double A-side single with the Raphael Saadiq-produced "Glow"; this did not happen and a reason for the change has never been given.
