♫ HOT OR NOT: KERI HILSON - “TURNIN’ ME ON” (REMIX)
Thursday, December 25, 2008

Originally featuring Lil’ Wayne, Keri Hilson’s second single, “Turnin’ Me On,” from her debut album, In A Perfect World… has been remixed with none other than Busta Rhymes, who recently left Aftermath/Interscope Records last summer, and will release his new album, B.O.M.B. next year. I love the energy of this Polow Da Don-produced track and it’s been getting a lot of play in radio and clubs, as well as air play with the video. I think will definitely give Keri the push she needs to make Perfect World… a success when it drops next year.

Still like the 1 w/Wayne better.
IDK…Im just not really into her. Guess ever sine Polow made the comment “Keri will give Beyonce’ a run for her money”…I was expecting a LOT more from her. Just vocally.
But she’s a pretty girl tho.

I just listened to this song - not feeling this version. The version with Lil Wayne on it is much better than this one.

Idk y people are going crazy over her, I mean she’s pretty and she can sing but she’s not outstanding. She’s not this big ass star that yall try to make her out to be.
I like the Lil Wayne version much better than this version. She seems to always sound different on each song she has.

I haven’t heard her song on the radio although I only listen to the radio when I am on my way to work and usually that is only a two or three song play esp with commercials. I know she has written some hits for others but so far she hasn’t come out with anything that would make want to purchase her CD. I hope she comes with some better music next year since her album has been pushed back.

I don’t think this chick is gonna make it but hey who knows. I thought Ciarra and T-Pain were going to be one album wonders. WRONG. But, this girl hasn’t made anything HOT yet. Energy was the most

#3. #11. CO-SIGN TO THE FULLEST.
KERI IS SO BLAND TO ME. SHE DOESN’T BRING ANYTHING NEW TO THE TABLE WHICH IS WHY I THINK SHE IS NEVER GOING TO MAKE IT. HER VIDEO W/ TIMBALAND WAS A RIHANNA, BEYONCE, AALIYAH, AND CIARA KNOCKOFF.
SHE DOESN’T HAVE ANY OUTSTANDING QUALITIES THAT WE HAVEN’T SEEN BEFORE. SHES GOING TO HAVE TO DO SOMETHING VERY AUDACIOUS IF SHE EVEN WANTS TO GET PEOPLE TO KNOW WHO SHE IS. SOMETHING LIKE CHANGING UP HER IMAGE COMPLETELY, RIHANNA DID IT. BECAUSE THIS WHOLE THING IS A NO NO.
SORRY KERI. COME AGAIN?

I like. But, not crazy about it…yet.
Still not liking the direction of this album. I hope they take a few months to add a few new tracks to bring some appeal, otherwise it’ll flop.

this girl is so boring nothing about her stand out to me she sound like all the other shower singers.we see so many pretty face light skin female singers to the point that’s just not what it’s all about anymore and people not feelin it.come with some soul girl of give up.I don’t wanna buy an album just just cause brian like her weak singles and pretty face.concrete loop had it right with jasmine and “bust your windows” is all over the radio.they play that 50million times here in Miami.sorry to say brian but your favorite artist in the world have no soul and we just ant feelin her.rihanna and beyonce are enough!!!!!no more it girls,bring on the soul sistas & brothas.I’m done!!!!!

I like Keri but I don’t like this song. I was excited when I heard her album was coming out. But then they kept pushing it back. I kinda of don’t want to hear it anymore. But maybe I will change my mind.

I LOVE THE MODERN DAY CLASSIC SHE AND NAS DID “HERO”… BUT THIS SONG, TIME THAT BEAT DROP, BUT I HATE SHE DIDNT DO THE VIDEO JUSTICEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. IF SHE COULD DANCE AN POP JSUT A LIL BIT… THIS SONG WOULD GROW HARDER…

Ya’ll really need stop all of the negativity! Keri is a talented artist. She writes her own music and has been behind the scenes for a min. So I’m glad she is getting her shine. Ya’ll know if ya’ll was in the club and the beat came on, you’d be on the dance floor! You know you would! I as boppin my head he first time I heard this and I didn’t even know who it was!
Keep doing ya thing Ms Keri!

She really doesnt have a star quality to her. I can tell by a person first song if theyre future super star status, (ne yo, rihanna, bey, leona) and she just aint cutting it. Maybe she go back to writing full time after she realizes people not feeling her.

It’s funny because the only place I hear about Keri Hilson is on blogs like CL. She aint blow up and only a few hundred people are her fans. I don’t mean to be harsh, but she’s a wacka** artist. She can write and can sing, but her voice is boring and her look isn’t that appealing. I can’t stand females who try their hardest to make it in the industry, that they change their sound to something bubblegum. It aint gonna work and I think that Keri needs to just stick to songwriting.

How Do you replace Wayne with Busta? What thst is supposed tp create MOre Buzz??? What do these people be thinkin’?
40.
sigh
Friday, December 26, 2008 /
I actually like the remix better than I do the original. Keri just doesn’t have the “it” factor, she can’t dance, her voice is mediocre, and she’s not beautiful. The songs that I’ve heard from her are wack and childish. The crazy thing is that she’s actually very intelligent and articulate, but somehow that doesn’t translate in her music. Hopefully she will not releash an album in ‘09. Please Keri, stick to songwriting, do not embaress yourself any further w/ this garbage muzik.
41.
I already know, son
Friday, December 26, 2008 /
Keri Hilson is the reason Busta was dropped from Interscope in the first place…’cause he refused to do the remix to Energy. Guess somebody had to let him know that if he’s gonna get his album promoted, he gotta get the pop world on smash while he still got “Arab Money” going on

Intro was good (her vocals) only difference and busta replacing weezy nah added yeah and she should have added more vocals/verses cause intro vocals was pretty hot. Again they need to stop promoting her start all over and come back in 2010 with a worthy single and album. I agree she needs to find her star power. Rihanna just jack fefe dobson swag and went rock with splash of Beyonce. No other rock black chick was in the scene so Rhianna made her place there. Same with Ciara her vocals are soft and airy and good. Not mention she can dance like no body I’ve seen come on the dancing scene. Yeah of course some moves resembles Aaliyah Janet and Michael. But theres just enough or more that makes Ciara her own moves and style.

I DON’t KNOW WHY THEY GIVE RIHANNA ALL THE CREDITS, SHE WAS BROUGHT FROM THE ISLAND AND THEY JUST FIXED HER UP AND MADE HER A STAR, BUT IF YOU REALLY LOOK AT, SHE IS NOT A GOOD PERFORMER , BUT NOW CIARA ROCKS THE STAGE, CAN’T WAIT FOR 09, CAUSE SHE IS GOING TO DO JUST FINE!

The problem here isn’t Rihannas vocals. The problem is Rihanna’s style. Nowadays packaging is very important and when you can’t compensate with one, you would have to do it with the other. If you sound like everyone else( regardless of how well you can sing) you have to compensate with a trademark or outstanding style. Miss Kerry unfortenately seems like she has been in Rihanna’s closet. It’s hard because she is very ahead and has an aggresive team behind her. The pic above is a perefect example of a promo for Good Girl Gone Bad first promo pics. I wish you all the best Miss Kerry stand back and analyze the problem. There is space for more singers……

Whoa! she sounds different as I don’t know what on this song! It sounds like shes referencing it for somebody else????? I haven’t heard the version with weezy but I tell you, I actually got in to once Busta came in with that delivery WHEW! I feel Keri is an awesome writer. I personally prefer her to stay behind the scenes, only because we have enough pop divas on the scene, You have to come different and stand out, the game is too saturated with the same sh**.

And PLEASE fall back on Rihanna. Damn Beyoncep psycho stanz drive me crazy.regardless of how long it her to sell GGGB if her voice is deaf to all ears 6.7million deaf people coped that album and that says alot if Beyonce the voice got this horrible singer Rihanna selling her and Alicia keys numbers as in worldwide sales.and please! I don’t wanna hear it’s her clothes,she’s only pretty or she can’t dance.just sit back take a breather and accept this girl is unique and has something special.she already have a classic and most can’t hear it take a bow has radio classic all over it.she’s not makin music for y’all urban heads anyway since yall be the ones illegal downloading.them YTgirls & boys gonna go in walmart and target and buy her album so shes not worry bout yall.she’s pop mainstream and that were the hot 100 hits and money at so I will say she’s a smart girl…. so bam!!!!!! And yes I’m talkin bout rihanna in a what’s her name post and yes I like writing essays LOL.

I like the original one better. It’s funny because I don’t really like Lil Wayne’s verse in the song, but I like how he rode the beat better than Busta.
I have to hear Keri’s album first before I think she needs to sit down as others are suggesting, because I was impressed with her mixtape from last year. But this year, she disappointed me a bit gearing more towards pop. I thought her music would have had more of an R&B feel like the mixtape. This is the only single I’ve liked from her so far.

@ me
Ciara’s song didn’t become a promo single until it flopped and her album leaked. Why would the label put all that money in a video like Go Girl if it’s just a promo single? They were planning on releasing it this month.

I liked the “Energy” track, but I haven’t been feeling her latest singles and definitely not this one…something about it sounds like a song by some teenage girls recorded in someone’s basement…I just expect a bit more mature material from her especially since she has pinned so many good lyrics and hits for other artists.

y are people comparing her to rihanna her voice is actually good (Energy) while rihanna sounds like a goat…..every one is wilding out over rhi because she dresses half naked when she performs and because she hired a stylists (2 yrs ago this chick could not dress) stylist doesnt equal style i’m not a fan of no female artists because they are all pretty lame nowadays but….i do like the original better….
