Keri Hilson Album Finally Dropped
I’ve been hearing a lot of buzz about Keri Hilson, and after waiting a few years for her album to finally be released, it looks like In a Perfect World… is finally a go. The album already went straight to the top of the R&B charts, so it seems as if all the delays and subsequent hype worked out for the singer. Her single “Turning Me On” featuring Lil Wayne is also doing well on the charts.
Her album was supposed to be released around the time that Timbaland’s “The Way I Are” (which Hilson co-wrote and sang on) came out, but her album was reworked over a two year period instead. Hilson has a plethora of co-writes on her resume, including Britney Spears’ “Gimme More,” and Mary J. Blige’s “Take Me As I Am.”
There were aspects of waiting that helped Hilson in the end; the singer told the Associated Press that waiting allowed her to pick the songs that were able to stand up against “the test of time.” Also because of the delays, many high profile musicians were able to collaborate with her on songs, like her new single “Knock You Down,” featuring both Kanye West and Ne-Yo.
I didn’t know , in todays throw away culture, that musicians today could create “this test of time” albums. Fair play if it turns out to be true.
