Who's that Girl?


So let's talk about Miss Keri Hilson. Now we have seen this girl everywhere. Talk about promoting an artist. She is so versatile that half the time you can't even tell its her. Talk about promoting an artist. She is a singer/ songwriter/ video girl? HunH! You can't tell me she didn't EAT in Usher's "Love In This Club" video. Its hard not to think of her as the sexy girl in the videos. With her hot performances in Usher's video as well as Timbaland's "Scream" featuring Hilson and Nicole Scherzinger of the Pussycat Dolls. She is so HOT you kinda don't even care what she's singing. See the video for her first single "Energy." Hottah!!

Most people don't know that she penned "Like a Boy" for Ciara, Omarion's smash hit "Ice Box" and gave it to us with the title track "Black Out" & "Gimme More" on Britney Spears' last album. The list continues with writing credits for artist such as Avant, Chris Brown, Chingy, Danity Kane, Jennifer Lopez, Mary J. Blige, Pussycat Dolls, Toni Braxton, Usher's "Love In This Club" remix for which her vocals got bumped for Beyonce's - go figure. Of course we all know she is practically responsible for most of Timbaland's last album "Shock Value." To be honest, one couldn't buy an album or turn on a radio in the last five years without hearing a Keri Hilson song. I'm sorry, but that's a true artist to me.

OK. Let's get into it! Why is it that with all this material and all the great credits under her belt is it.......

1: taking so long for her to release an album (was scheduled for a mid 2007 release then got bumped to sometime in 2008 & is now scheduled for October 14 2008);

2: a lot of the leaked songs that have gotten out are not poppin' compared to the hits she has written for others.




Oddly when you mention her name people don't know who she is. Let's support this girl! I believe she is the real deal. Besides her track with Snoop Dog "Henny & Apple Juice" is my ish.
Yall know who it is ....Fa-BiD
