Keri Hilson
Jul 18, 2011
R&B/ Pop singer Keri Hilson's second studio album, No Boys Allowed, was released on December 21, 2010 as the follow up to her RIAA GOLD certified debut album In A Perfect World.
"No Boys Allowed is a deeply personal project designed to bring women to their feet. The provocative title, is not what you may think," says Hilson. "It's not about excluding men. It's more about women understanding that there comes a time in your life when you want a man. A real man. A grown up. Not a boy. And that's not a bad thing."
The Grammy nominated singer and new face of AVON can be seen all over your television. Recently performing her hit single, "Pretty Girl Rock" (produced by Ne-Yo) on Vh1 Divas Salute The Troops, 84th Annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, NBC's The Today Show and Tonight Show w/ Jay Leno amongst other national TV shows.
The album encompasses the past two years in Keri's life as she's gone from a hit songwriter responsible for hits by Britney Spears, Pussy Cat Dolls, Mary J. Blige, and Usher to a Grammy nominated singer with #1 songs under her own belt. The Timbaland-produced "Breaking Point" is a bluesy call to arms; the kind of song a woman listens to as she musters up the courage to leave a no-good relationship. On the other side of the spectrum, the raw and infectious "The Way You Love Me" feat. Rick Ross, produced by Polow Da Don is a club-thumping message to female empowerment. But that's not to say Hilson's music doesn't speak to the fellas, "I write from a female perspective, but I'm also telling men what women are really thinking and feeling about them."
Keri's latest single off the album titled, "Lose Control," featuring Rap star Nelly is said to best one of the best track off her album and is currently climbing up the charts with Top 10 potential.
