Single Review: Keri Hilson – Energy (Universal/Polydor)

Keri Hilson

Having had big name guests Kanye West, Ne-Yo, Timbaland and Lil Wayne, on previous singles, Keri Hilson is stepping out alone on new single, ‘Energy’, the latest to be taken from the album, ‘In a Perfect World’. In the past she’s proved her talents as a songwriter, penning tracks for Ciara, Britney Spears, Usher and Ludacris, and this single further shows that she could potentially make it as a solo artist in her own right. I say ‘potentially’ as it’s not a track that will blow your mind or take over the charts like Rhianna’s ‘Umbrella’. It’s simple lyrics include ‘I’m having nightmares from sleeping with the enemy/How do we reverse the chemistry’ which are wrapped around a characteristic R&B beat which make it a solid but standard single, though there is no denying that the girl can sing. A decent track and looking at her musical CV, I’m sure there’s much more to come. SD
