#TwitteReview : Keri Hilson “No Boys Allowed”

Posted on December 22, 2010 at 3:14 pm by Eb the Celeb No Comment

Everyone loves to hate Keri Hilson. I am not one of those people. I don’t like how she came on the scene beefing with everyone trying to prove the point that she was hotter because she had written a lot of hits for some of our favorite artists, but I did like her debut album. I also didn’t see anything wrong with her “The Way You Love Me” video that had the internet in a frenzy a couple weeks ago so I’m not coming into this review with the hatred that others might.

Although I did finish this album sympathizing with how hard it must be to be a singer/songwriter that doesn’t know how to give up a hit because you have a project that you are working on. This came about because she has a couple songs that sound like she is trying to sound like Rihanna and 1 song that is more than evident it was written for Beyonce. It must be extremely hard to know a song is a hit but can’t conceptualize that it isn’t a hit for you and that you should given the song to someone else. That’s what she battled with throughout No Boys Allowed.

My favorite tracks are: Pretty Girl Rock, One Night Stand, Lose Control, Toy Soldier, Breaking Point, Beautiful Mistake, All The Boys, and Hustler. If Eb likes 8 out of 16 tracks you did pretty good for yourself.

Here is my full #TwitteReview of the Deluxe Edition of the album. Remember to read from bottom to top to get the essence of how they were tweeted.
