It seems as though our girl Keri Hilson has scored her very own first #1 hit with her second single, “Turnin’ Me On,” featuring Lil’ Wayne.
“Turnin’ Me On” lands the #1 spot on the Mainstream R&B/Hip Hop chart, while it has peaked at #23 so far on the Hot 100 chart. The Polow Da Don-produced track is taken from Keri’s debut album, In A Perfect World…, which is set to hit stores and online March 24th. The album will contain productions from Timbaland, Polow Da Don, Danjahandz and Cory Bold, with a few features that have yet to be revealed yet.
Although Keri has penned #1′s for others, this has got to be a proud moment for her. Not only has the song gained some pretty good chart success, it has also held the #1 spot on BET’s 106 & Park. I, for one, am very excited about the release of Keri’s project. Can’t wait for the 24th of March!
NEW MARIAH SINGLE THIS SPRING?
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it! The Dream sat down with our friends over at Rap-Up.com to talk about his involvement in Mariah Carey’s new project, the tentatively titled, twelfth studio album, MC3. Mariah loves her numbers, doesn’t she?
Here’s what The Dream had to say:
“We’re working on M.C. stuff… incredible!” said the ‘Rockin’ That Thang’ singer.
“We’ve got seven songs already; it’s been like two weeks. We’re just moving right along, so hopefully she’ll just put the single out there in the next couple of months.”
I don’t know if I’m ready to hear from Mariah that soon!
Mariah is no stranger to The Dream and Tricky Stewart, considering that they were the masterminds behind her #1 single, “Touch My Body” from the underwhelming album, E=MC². Mariah is also featured on The Dream’s second single, “My Love,” from his forthcoming sophomore album, Love vs. Money, which hits shelves and online March 10th.
