Keyshia Cole revealed her album cover exclusively to Rap-Up.com. The album is called A Different Me and is slated to hit stores December 16th. Although I really love Keyshia with the black hair and she looks absolutely beautiful, I’m not to much diggin’ this cover.

LIL’ MO SIGNS WITH GLOBAL MUSIC GROUP

Lil’ Mo who is commonly referred to as “The Godmother of R&B,” has recently signed a two-album deal with Global Music Group.

She will be releasing an album, a follow-up to her 2007 album, Paper & Pain. Mo’s hit single “Superwoman Pt. II,” from her debut album Based on a True Story, quickly became a chart topper. Her critically acclaimed sophomore album, Meet the Girl Next Door, released in 2003, and collaborations such as “Hot Boyz” with Missy Elliott, “Parking Lot Pimpin’” with Jay-Z, “Put It On Me” with Ja Rule, and most recently “Cry” with LL Cool J on his Exit 13 album, has established Lil’ Mo as an R&B sensation.

“We are honoured to have Lil’ Mo as the newest member of our Family here at GMG,” said Roland Turner, CEO of Global Music Group.

The former Elektra Records songstress will release her new album in 2009.

ON THE SET WITH KERI HILSON

Keri Hilson recently shot a video for her third single, “Turnin’ Me On,” featuring none other than Lil’ Wayne. “Turnin’ Me On” is the third single from Keri’s debut album, In A Perfect World… which will hit stores sometime at the top of 2009.

The video was shot here in Atlanta and was directed by Erik White.

  1. sista-T

    Love LIL MO

    K Cole looks different. I think its the teeth, but she’s still cute!

  2. J. Peezy

    Um, sorry Brian, not sure what you’re seeing, but that cover is beatiful! Keyshia done moved up my list… look out Kelly Rowland!

  3. Beyonce Forever

    ……..Keyshia face looks a little ………odd. I dunno. She’s a cutie. I hate her single
    ……..with 2 Pac.

    ……..Lil Mo…those tats are not cute.

    ………Hope Keri’s management team gets it together. Her album is gonna be dope

  4. Beyonce Forever

    …………Brian I feel you…….she looks uncomfortable.

  5. i hate that cover….ugh….that pose is not cute,looks like she gotta pee real bad.
    and since the title is “ADifferent Me”,i hope this album is not full of songs dogging men

    lil mo looks like Remy Ma..

  6. LJ

    I think Keyshia looks beautiful on her album cover. The pin-up girl look works wonderfully for her, and I absolutely adore the short hair on her!

    I see she got those pearly whites bonded… that was a power move. I hate seeing celebrities with jacked up teeth (not that hers were) and $2 million dollars worth of jewelry on!

    It’s nice to see Lil Mo back on the scene… I hope she puts out some worthy music.

  7. yes we did!

    omg!!! Keyshia Cole looks the absolute BEST ive ever seen her

    go head girl, u look FAB!!

  8. TRILLA

    Keyshia Cole looks like Brandy+Kelis in the new cover.
    The cover looks like a Victoria Secret ad.

  9. TANYA

    Females please stop with all the TATS, they are not attractive, especially on places like the arm and neck, it does not look good.

  10. -- Sam

    Keyshia Cole , IS trying to look like Rhi , JOKES

  11. Greatestloveofall

    Who cares about Keri? This ish is gonna be shelved.

    Keyshia looks amazing,

    LIL’ MO damn this chick is too talented. But slept on, she’s got an amazing voice. Real talent.

  12. Ownership

    Yes Keyshia Is my girl she always fly Lil Mo a founation can’t wait for she work because she is a good singer.

  13. cooliegyl_lexus

    She(Keyshia) looks Nice and she did say on 106 & Park that she was lossing weight…So I like it…

    LIL MO…No comment..love her voice though.

    Keri Hilson- LOVE THIS SONG…I LOVE IT…. YOUNG KERI BABY!!! LMAO *(in the song if you didn’t know that…haha)

  14. Greg_Arious

    >>>DAMN KERI! How many failed singles are you going to release? I think the >>>same thing that happened to Nicole Scherzinger is about to happen to Keri. Not >>>that I want it to but I think it will.

  15. bassackwards

    ……..Keyshia and little mo looks nice, but glamour and tats just don’t mix.

  16. Keyshia looks FAB!!!! go head girl! i’m so happy for her, I love her!!!

    Keri Hilson, blah…

    Lil Mo……blah

  17. crunkpoet

    im happy for all these beautiful females..keep it up!

  18. Big M

    The Keyshia cover is nice….for a ‘single’ but not an ‘album’

  19. luker

    i’ve never heard anybody refer to lil mo as the “godmother of r&b”. where the he11 did you hear that from? bryan, please let angela/tiana do the music post if you don’t know what the f8k you’re talking about!!!

  20. she she

    lil moe is one of my fav. cant wait to get the album. keisha is changing. the pics are cute i still see mary j blige in her..

  21. 8baller

    I dont like that cover. I hate how they made her tattoos blend with the background. I know they were trying to be creative but it comes off as a bad photoshop job.
    And I’ve never saw Keyshia as the glam type…the pink background is way too bubbly for the type of music she usually sings.

  22. OKAY KAY KAY

    LIL MO needs to sit the F down, nobody is checking for her anymore, she talk sideways about other artists too often anyways. Keri- Can’t wait for the album and video.

  23. Lis

    WTF is up with all the tats?????? Make women look like they stink.

    So 1995………

  24. I wish Keyshia would have stayed with her gap, I think it was very cute. In my opinion her new smile makes her look wierd.

    Is anyone checkin for Lil Mo? Is she even relevant anymore? Good luck with that one.

    When is Keri release date………I’m over it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  25. KSH

    I think KC’s cover is very glamorous in an old pin-up model kind of way. I love it. Looks like on her show she is wearing that Invisi-a-line on her teeth instead of the braces.

  26. 8baller

    LMAO @ Keri pushing single after single out. Even though they are all floppin she said “fuck that, I aint giving up”. LOL!!! She is ambitious.

  27. OBAMA YALL!!!!

    Keyshia looks great! I love her new look (hair color and do and she’s been working it out).

    I always loved Lil Mo’s voice. She has a one of a kind voice.

  28. jadavies

    Keyshia Cole needs some help from Tyra with that pose. She is pretty but mos def not a model.
    Lil Mo do your thing. God has blessed her because she has gotten saved. She is in the will of God. Many more blessings to follow!

  29. luker

    and why are people releasing singles and wasting money on videos for albums that will never see the light of day?!

    for god’s sake the girl doesn’t even have an actual album release date, but yet she’s putting out singles and videos for something that may come out in early 2009 or mid 2009 or late 2009 never 2009. this is not smart.

    this is exactly what happened to michelle williams, johnta austing and many other artist who released singles too far away from their album release date that people lost interest in the project.

    people can say whatever they want about beyonce and rihanna but those b1tches know a thing or two about marketing/promotion to deliver sales. you have to strike while the iron is hot!!! she needs to release her album by the end of this year if she expects to get any decent album sales from these singles.

    and side note, i hate “turnin’ me on”, why didn’t she release “slow dance” and who gives a f8k if it sound like “promise”, hell she wrote the dam song it should sound like it!!!

    urgghhh…..keri is just disappointing me left and right.

  30. Tyra

    >>>Excuse me if I sound really ignorant but WTF is Keri Hilson?
    >>>Really, and I’m not trying to be funny.

  31. HONESTLY???

    i feel like Keri Hilson is trying to hard to be something she’s not…and its too obvious to the point where it turns you away from her..

    In performance mode and in interviews, she’s 2 TOTALLY different people.

    She has this type of “i’m prissy and sassy with my perfect grammar and articulation” personality…which is fine.

    But on this and other performances, she attempts to be this “ghetto, hood chick who’s singing witha fake slang”…and that’s very misleading.

  32. Tyra

    >>>@April.

    Don’t know about anyone else but I will definately be checkin for it.

    One thing I can say about the girl is she does have unmistakable
    and can probaly sing any damn thing. Yeah I’ll be looking for that one.

  33. Tyra

    >>>>talent that’s “unmistakable talent.”

  34. "texas tea"

    yall get off keyshia and lil mo. . . .”lil wayne” and the “game” and “50″(fitty) got their entire bodies tatted and nobody is knocking them. .let them girl’s do they thing as well . these females are not trying to portray themselves as being glamour girls, keyshia will let you know even though she is living that lifestyle of the “good life” , she still has hood in her!!! lil mo is just doing her thing as well. . . .and as far as her song with PAC, that’s a bad song but the original one on PAC’S LIFE album sounds alot better to me but i know they had to switch it up some!!! i love keyshia’s music and apparently the world does too because both of her last albums went platinum and that’s why she is rolling that HOT ASS MASSERATI. . . . . . do yo think KEYSHIA COLE cause dallas/fort worth texas has MUCH LOVE FOR YOU!!!!!!

  35. Shonty Graham

    ……………Keshia is holding her head in a awkward manner, other than that she
    ………….she looks lovely, why is it that Kerri Hilson can’t seem to get off the ground
    ……..in my opinion she can sing and perform but she’s finding it hard to get anywhere
    ………..with this album, pushed back what, 3 times. The girl with the tatoos need to
    ………..sit down, she looks ridiculous

  36. ...i guess.

    So the Rihanna-imitation in the “return the favor” video didn’t work…

    So i guess she’s trying out a Ciara-imitation. Hmmm…

    This is a “Like A Boy” remix video if anything. Too much of the CIARA swag goin on…or shouls i say “attempting”.

    No Keri Hilson…No.

  37. identities ppl...these artists need identities!!!!!

    WAIT…DID CIARA GET HER HAIR CUT AND MAKE A REMIX VIDEO OF “LIKE A BOY”??? OH NO, SORRY, THAT’S JUST KERI HILSON SWAGGER-JACKING AGAIN.

    NEVER MIND.

  38. Tyra

    >>>@ Honestly
    >>>Damn, and here I was trying to find out who she is turns out she don’t even
    >>>know who she is her damn self. that’s funny.

  39. I AM......COMPLETELY EMBARRASSED FOR BEYONCE. HOW BOUT THAT??

    Okay…i like the Keyshia Cole album cover.

    Didn’t even read the Lil’ Mo crap.

    Keri Hilson..or Ciara..or Rihanna, or whatever you’d like to go by this time…you’re trying wayyy too hard to imitate other leading ladies in the music industry.

    She really needs her own image..and not EVERYBODY elses.

  40. Mrs.Sk8board P

    keyshia looks nice..i like mo..she got talent. (i didn’t know she had so manny tatts) keri is STILL whack!

  41. TORY

    I love Keysh but that cover is not doin it at all, I mean for real it reminds me of a little Kelis but waterdown. But w/e will always support the music for that matter.

  42. HONESTLY???

    @@ Tyra…

    Ur right…so its not just me who feels this way…good. LOL

  43. Javonna

    I think Keisha looks beautiful and very chic.

    Lil Mo has wayyyy too many tats. NOT lady like at all.

  44. Jscene

    LOVE LIL MO…TRULY ONE OF THE BEST VOICES IN THE BIZ! CONGRATS GIRL!

  45. Uhnonymis

    So what’s up with the Ciara’s album? Is she tight that Beyonce took her idea of multiple discs with different themes?

  46. peacekeeper00

    I don’t like Keyshia’s cover at all. She looks like a playboy bunny.

    Keri – didn’t she just release a video? Why don’t she let that one ride out before she releases another one. SMH.

  47. CALIFORNIA-KING-OG

    LIL MO IS ON THE SAME LABEL AS THAT RETURN OF THE MACK DUDE. GOOD TO SEE HER BACK CRACKIN. I LAST SAW HER PERFORM OUT THIS WAY IN LIKE 03. SHE GOT HEAT AND SHE CUTE TOO.

  48. Atlblk1

    Keisha Cole is a BEAST!!!!

    LIL Mo CAN SANG HER ASS OFF!!!!

    The ew song by Keri Hilson is THE BOMB!!!

  49. TJACK25

    I love “Turnin Me Off”…. I’ve been bumpin that for a hot second

  50. Queen Tee

    keyshia cole looks nice dont hate on that gurl!!! Lil Mo we miss we need you back in the game!!

  51. The Truth

    Keyshia is airbrushed within an inch of her life. I love it. It’s the best i’ve seen her look,

  52. Scooby

    Lil’ Mo is the truth!! I saw her that BB Kings in 2005 she was amazing!!

  53. MAI03

    Keyshia looks beautiful. Her hair & make up are flawless and she looks like a 40′s pin up girl. Very old hollywood glam. It’s pretty. Keyshia has been stepping her fab game up alot lately and you can tell shes been working out. Go Keyshia!

  54. NOT EASILY IMPRESSED

    Great for Lil Mo..Murder Inc did her dirty and now look where they are!
    Keyshia’s biting Kelis…and she has 0 sex appeal…the only people who find her attractive are thugs and ex cons…
    Keri won’t have a solo career…she should stop trying.

  55. What i say goes

    Keyshia cole is pretty and talented. Lil mo can sang better than ur favorite artist.. Real talk. Keri hilson is pretty and she is tryin.. STOP HATING

  56. NOT EASILY IMPRESSED

    53.

    you can tell shes been working out. Go Keyshia!

    I thought the working out was about getting healthy to achieve some sort of balance and wellness..to have a better life… NOT to sell sex. She shouldn’t try it…it WON’T work! It wouldn’t be smart to step into the mainstream and challenge established black sex symbols…. She’s a “hood girl” and trying to change it up is going to hurt her… For instance, the Ike & Tina song Polo sampled in the song they played on her show…that’s just what Fantasia did on her last album: “hood rock”…It isn’t new or fresh and she better get back to R&B ballads and midtempo before she’s at home permanently arguing with her family!

  57. Greatestloveofall

    @34. A-MEN!!!!

    All these chicks complaining about Lil’ Mo being tatted up have no problem calling Lil’ Wayne “sexy” (?!) despite being tatted everywhere imaginable. At least Game and 50 look good, this dude about 3 feet tall.

  58. Greatestloveofall

    AND Frankie, Keyshia Cole mama better make appearance on the album. Maybe a SKIT called “Man down Code 10 situation, HOLLLAAAA” LMAO. I love her ghetto ass mama shes so fly.

  59. tpstar

    lil mo has a dope gospel music voice with much range but the tatts are less then femanine

  60. Theworldwillendin2012

    Not feelin Keyshia’s cover. As for the Keri, i don’t like the song but the video looks like fun.
