Friday’s Fan Feature!

Every Friday, we’d like to have a ‘Fan Feature’ where we ask a question (on Twitter) at the beginning of the week, and collect tweets all throughout the week. It will merely be one question, and the intention is to see the likes & and general thoughts of Keri’s fans. After collecting all of the tweets from the fans, they will be arranged onto one page (using photoshop) & then posted on the main site. Also, if you don’t want your Twitter ID to be revealed, I can just use your name. The first couple of questions will be generic, but the hope is to make it as interesting & fun as possible. For example, the first general questions would be something like: “What’s your favorite Keri Hilson song, and for what particular reason”, and something more interesting would be: “If you were Keri Hilson for one day, what would be the first thing that you would do?” (lol). So in conclusion, I will propose a question every Monday, and you, the fans, will send me a tweet with your answer. They will be collected, and put on one page to post on the site every Friday.

First question:

Which of Keri’s songs have been played the most on your iPod/CD player? (Please list the Top 3.)

Please reply by sending a tweet to our Twitter account, @KHCentral. Feel free to send an e-mail (kerihilsoncentral@gmail.com) if you don’t have a Twitter!

Leaked Demos

Recently, 26 demos were leaked online. They are not new songs, and are years old according to Keri. She also went on Twitter to tweet:

Leaked music is such a slap in the face. Yet its kinda funny that the DEMOS were never mine & years old! Don’t believe the “new music” hype

She also wrote this tweet today:

We CANNOT keep supportin STOLEN music!! Don’t ppl realize it’s MAJORLY affecting the music ind.?! We as consumers must do our part.

It’s unfortunate that hackers leak out songs, demos, etc., but we, the fans, must continue to always buy music legally.

Keri Hilson Says Trips To Africa Are ‘Inspiring’ Her New Album

Keri Hilson received plenty of accolades during her transition from songwriter to performer, including a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist.

Now, Hilson is in full-on artist mode as she works on the follow-up to her debut album, In a Perfect World … . According to Hilson, promoting her first album actually helped inspire her sophomore effort.

“Everywhere I travel, I get music from that region of the world,” she told MTV News. “I’ve been to Nigeria, I’ve been to South Africa, three cites in Africa [in all]. I gather music from these regions, and African music is very drum-heavy. It was very inspiring. I’m definitely going to be using some of that inspiration.”

Hilson was one of 2009′s breakout stars with her hits “Turning Me On” featuring Lil Wayne and “Knocks You Down” featuring Ne-Yo and Kanye West. She first made a name for herself behind the scenes by writing songs for Britney Spears, Ciara and Kelly Rowland, among others.

Still, moving into the spotlight wasn’t easy. Hilson’s debut suffered a number of false starts, delays for which she told MTV News last year she was “grateful.” “It’s kind of been a little Detox-y,” Hilson laughed, comparing the wait for her debut to Dr. Dre’s years-in-the-making LP.

“I’m just a perfectionist,” she said at the time. “I have had many [release dates], but it’s all for a good cause. The label wants to make sure the album has its proper release, and I’m thankful for that. Very grateful, even though fans look at it like it’s a bad thing.”

For her sophomore effort, Hilson said she’s expecting Polow Da Don and Timbaland to produce the majority of her yet-untitled set. Hilson also said Kanye will likely be onboard for her next album as well. She said she hopes she can recruit Ryan Leslie into the fold too.
