Keri Hilson’s debut, In a Perfect World features her indomitable songwriting skills, the production of Polow da Don and Timbaland, and her incredible voice. Highlighted by her hit single "Turnin Me On" featuring Lil Wayne, the album also showcases Keri's vulnerability on “Slow Dance," co-written by Justin Timberlake. From the smooth energy of "Knock You Down" featuring Kanye West and Ne-Yo, to the speedy cascading electro bassline of "Return the Favor," Keri's pitch-perfect voice is refreshing and versatile.
The album is centered around the theme of relationships. "No human is exempt from the realities of life—heartbreak, love, failure, success . . . That's the standpoint that lent itself to the title. There will always be something you’d change if only you lived ‘In A Perfect World…’ and I’m no different.”
