American singer, songwriter and actress, Keri Hilson, has hinted that she is getting ready to come to Ghana on May 26, for what seems to be a show. She also stated that prior to that visit, she is scheduled to first visit another African country, Mozambique on the 28th of April, 2012. The singer made this statement through her official twitter handle around 3:00GMT on April, 17 today. She tweeted: “@KeriHilson: Excited 2 check off 2 new countries on my AFRICA list! Performing in MOZAMBIQUE on April 28, & GHANA on May 26” If this tweet turns out to be fulfilled, she would be among the host of American international artistes such as Jay-z, Rick Ross, John Legend, Trey Songz, Mario, Busta Rhymes, Faboulous etc. who have in recent times visited the West African country. Keri Lynn Hilson (born December 5, 1982) was born and raised in Decatur, Georgia, and spent most of her youth working with producer Anthony Dent, as a songwriter and background vocalist for several R&B and hip hop artists. By the age of 14, Hilson had secured a record deal with the girl group D’Signe, who later disbanded. She attended Emory University in Atlanta, while she continued writing songs for artists, including Britney Spears and Mary J. Blige, with the production and songwriting team, The Clutch. In 2006, Hilson signed with American rapper and producer Timbaland’s record label, Mosley Music. Her breakthrough came the following year after appearing on Timbaland’s single, “The Way I Are”, which topped charts around the world. Hilson’s debut studio album, In a Perfect World…, was released in 2009, and debuted at number four on the US Billboard 200 chart, eventually being certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The album spawned the hit singles, “Knock You Down”, “Turnin Me On” and “I Like”. It also earned Hilson two Grammy Award nominations for Best New Artist and Best Rap/Sung Collaboration for “Knock You Down”. Her second studio album, No Boys Allowed, was released in 2010 and was considerably less successful than its predecessor; however, it included the hit single, “Pretty Girl Rock”. Hilson’s achievements include a BET Award, MOBO Award, NAACP Image Award and two Soul Train Music Awards. Apart from her work in music, she has pursued a career in acting, and will appear in the romantic comedy film, Think Like a Man, scheduled to be released in April 2012. You Might Also Like : Wow!
