Posted May 18, 200817 yr Keri Hilson 'Energy' Zone 4 // Mosley Music Group // Interscope Summer 2008 http://www.interscope.com/images/artist/kerihilson.jpg Billboard preview of the forthcoming album ›› Keri Hilson is no stranger to working behind the scenes. Already co-penning Britney Spears' "Gimme More" and Timbaland's "The Way I Are," the singer met the latter through producer Polow Da Don several years ago. And after singing for Timbaland via telephone, Hilson says she was signed on the spot. Now, the Atlanta native is ready to use her chart-topping skills for her own album. Timbaland and Polow produced the bulk of "In a Perfect World . . ." with Danjahandz contributing one track. "It's mostly love songs," Hilson says. "There are also songs on there about having fun—but there's a lot of heartbreak." Energy ›› http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51A7o720mHL._SL500_AA280_.jpg 'Energy' is the lead single to be taken from the debut album. Something of a midtempo ballad the track can be previewed at Amazon here. It will be released to iTunes et al in the USA on the 27th May. We can expect it here in the UK (I'd have thought) sometime in late July to August. She is going to be huge it's quite obvious. And 'Energy' sounds like quite a refreshing if not dynamic take on a power ballad. Not unlike Ms. Sparks though it has to be noted. I am sure Jack/Jark/Jonie/Mikal/Simon will all love :o
May 18, 200817 yr I was about to make a topic. :heehee: I love the preview of this, however much like Michelle's We Break The Dawn it is. :heart: I'm not sure about the Jordin comparisons, though. This song does sound like a #1 in the making!
May 18, 200817 yr Sounds very nice indeed. I agree with the comparing to Jordin aswell, it doees sound a bit like her. I think it has the potential to be a very big hit.
May 18, 200817 yr Nice. It's like [what Jake said] a dynamic take on a power ballad. Take Beyonce's 'Irreplaceable', but BIGGER.
May 19, 200817 yr The clip sounds amazing :wub: Ive loved her so far, seriously looking forward to her album !!
May 19, 200817 yr O...M...G! LOVE this to bits! I mean from the clip it is AMAZING! Its a bit Jordin Sparks-ish but not that much! Keri Hilson>Jordin IMO :lol: I've been looking forward to some solo stuff from her and if 'Energy' is anything to go by then I am DEFINATELY getting the Album! :w00t: It will be HUGE!

May 27, 200817 yr Ok am I the only person who really thinks this is boring lol. I've listened twice and I think the full song is really boring. Underwhelming and not lead single material at all. :(
