I Now Understand the Underwhelming Feeling for Keri Hilson

Album: In a Perfect World…

Artist(s): Keri Hilsont

Official Drop Date: March 24, 2009

Blades: 4.5

Review: “In a Perfect World…” left me wanting one filled with better albums. Not sure why, but the first impression from Keri Hilson’s debut album is that she had better things to do. Perhaps I should have had some too rather than listen to this project. Not even the bonus track was worth my efforts.

“Tell Him the Truth,” “Alienated,” “Knock You Down” (ft. Kanye West & Ne-Yo), and The Way I Are (Timberland & D.O.E.) are a few standout songs – but there aren’t that many so cherish those that you find. If Hilson won’t give her all, then why should I give my money? 4. 5 blades for giving me two ringtones.

About Missy T.

(Staten Island): (Researcher Asst.; Critic; Street Reporter) I am so happy to join the gang in 2002 & for being given a chance. I got into this because there was only so much Nelly that I could lis­ten to on KTU. I needed to see what else was out there. My friends didn’t like this new job at first, but now they can’t wait to get the newest edi­tion or log-​​on online to see what’s new! My par­ents have got­ten over the music I lis­ten to and real­ize that they are sim­ply for review. I have learned that artists who con­tinue to state their names through­out the CD are a turn off. Either way, I can’t wait for the new year to kick off right.
