Keri Hilson
Long before she’s stepped out with her solo career, she’s penned songs for Britney Spears, Toni Braxton, Chris Brown, Mary J. Blige, Ciara, Usher, Teairra Mari, Danity Kane, the Pussycat Dolls, Avant, Ruben Studdard, B5, Diddy, Chingy, LeToya, Ludacris, Rich Boy, Jennifer Lopez, Shawn Desman, Kelly Rowland, Nicole Scherzinger, Lloyd Banks, Keke Palmer, Omarion, Tiffany Evans, and Timbaland.
A pretty extensive list if we ever seen one. The girl is obviously talented. Unfortunately for her, all of her songwriting success have yet to translate over into making her into a star. The reason why Keri’s on this list is because of the “Turning Me On (Remix)” song.
With lyrics such as:
I ain’t tryin to start some mess
There’s just somethin on my chest
That I need to get off,
Cause you turnin me off
Your vision cloudy if you think that you’re the best
You can dance she can sing but she
need to move it to the… (don’t do it em)
She need to go have some babies
She needs to sit down, she fake
Them other chicks ain’t even
worth my time to talk about…
We want to see her capitalize on this moment that she’s been waiting for since 2009. Keri, being the fortune teller that she was saw way back then that Beyonce was about to have some “babies” and that she’s “moving to the left”.
Now it’s debatable as if to whether she was taking jabs at Beyonce, but for all intents and purposes of this article, our interpretation is that she is.
But even still, as we’ve said earlier Keri has the talent and the songwriting abilities to make a strong move towards the top while B is away. And with moves like the one below, maybe she’ll get there.
