See Keri Hilson Video BEFORE She Debuts It Tonight
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
This is election week to some, “Energy” week for Keri Hilson.
Polow Da Don shot us an e-mail alerting fans of the Atlanta singer-songwriter on the rise (above, far left, with 95.5 The Beat’s CJ, Da Don, and publishing whiz Ethiopia Habtemariam) that Hilson will be co-hosting “106 & Park” with Terrence at 6 p.m. today — known as “Takeover of Nas” Day at BET.
(Part-time Atlantan Nas’s latest CD hits stores tomorrow, and Hilson is featured on the rapper’s first single, “Hero”, produced by Da Don. See it HERE ).
Hilson will also debut the video for her first single, “Energy” — from her upcoming CD “In A Perfect World…”.
But you can see it now, HERE.
(See the Behind the Scenes video Hilson herself posted, BELOW).
Two days later, Timbaland — who shares production and record label credits with Da Don on Hilson’s debut — will join her at MTV for “TRL”, where she will also unveil “Energy”.
So today is the launch (of sorts) for one of the most anticipated new acts out of Atlanta this year. Have you heard “Energy” — and if so, what do you think? Believe she may be able to give Ciara, Beyonce and others a run for their dancing/singing/songwriting money? Remember her in Usher’s “Love In This Club” video? Or even way before that, on the Timbaland single she was featured on, “The Way I Are”? (See the YouTube video BELOW).
