Keri Hilson tells about almost fighting another singer
Keri Hilson was once the most promising star in R&B. For a few years, Hilson made appearances on tracks with high profile artists. However, her own debut album seemed to be forever forthcoming. She appeared in such videos as Nelly Furtado’s “Promiscuous,” along with doing songs with Lloyd Banks, and more noticeably, Rich Boy. In 2008, she released her debut single, “Energy,” which underwhelmed, along with appearing on Nas’ “Hero.” Finally, 2009 saw her drop “Turnin’ Me On,” with Lil Wayne. A quick rise to the top saw Keri suddenly disappear, and she finally provided context.
Keri Hilson, unlike most R&B artists, immediately returned with her sophomore album. When she released her debut album, she had the follow-up hit, “Knock You Down,” with Ne-Yo and Kanye West. In the time following, she began working on her second album. With No Boys Allowed, she sent a strong message to men and the game. She scored another major hit, in “Pretty Girl Rock.” As she had the radio on lock, she made a semi-controversial comment, and then she stopped releasing new music.
Keri Hilson often finds her name involved in rumors about her being blackballed. During her interview with Tank, she somewhat spoke on this. Hilson detailed a time when she was performing, while she was still up-and-coming. A female R&B artist, who was big at the time, was in the crowd while Hilson was performing. During her show, Keri said this artist acted disrespectfully. As a result, Keri said she almost fought this singer. While Keri didn’t say who she was, she said she’s irrelevant now. So, fans think she’s talking about Teairra Mari.
