<p>November 16th, 2010 &ndash; R&amp;B/ Pop singer&nbsp;<b>Keri Hilson</b>&nbsp;is rallying women on her eagerly awaited sophomore album&nbsp;<b><i><span style="text-decoration: underline;">No Boys Allowed</span></i></b>&nbsp;set to release December 21st&nbsp;on&nbsp;<b>Interscope/Zone 4/Mosley Music Group</b>. As the follow up to her RIAA GOLD certified debut album&nbsp;<i><span style="text-decoration: underline;">In A Perfect World&hellip;</span></i>&nbsp;the Grammy nominated singer and new face of AVON will perform her newest single &ldquo;<b>Pretty Girl Rock&rdquo;&nbsp;</b>(produced by&nbsp;<b>Ne-Yo</b>) on&nbsp;<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Vh1 Divas Salute The Troops</span>,&nbsp;<span style="text-decoration: underline;">84th&nbsp;Annual Macy&rsquo;s Thanksgiving Day Parade</span>, NBC&rsquo;s&nbsp;<span style="text-decoration: underline;">The Today Show&nbsp;</span>and&nbsp;<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Tonight Show w/ Jay Leno</span>amongst other national TV shows. An ode to self confidence, the video for the single was shot by famed director&nbsp;<b>Joseph Kahn</b>&nbsp;(U2/Gwen Stefani) and has everyone from&nbsp;<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Perez Hilton</span>&nbsp;to&nbsp;<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Billboard Magazine</span>&nbsp;ecstatic about Keri&rsquo;s tribute to women like Janet Jackson, Diana Ross and TLC that have rocked throughout the ages. Additionally, the video for her debut single &ldquo;Breaking Point&rdquo; (produced by&nbsp;<b>Timbaland</b>) has hit #1 on&nbsp;<span style="text-decoration: underline;">BET 106 &amp; Park</span>&nbsp;while becoming the #1 added record to Urban Radio after recently performing the song on&nbsp;<span style="text-decoration: underline;">BET&rsquo;s Black Girls Rock.&nbsp;</span>Recently seen at The American Music Awards, the songwriter also graces the current covers of both<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Vibe Magazine</span>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Jones Magazine</span>.</p>
<p>Executive produced by super producers&nbsp;<b>Timbaland&nbsp;</b>and<b>&nbsp;Polow Da Don,&nbsp;</b>the new album features appearances by&nbsp;<b>Kanye West, Chris Brown, Rick Ross, J-Cole&nbsp;</b>and additional musical contributions by&nbsp;<b>Timbaland, Polow Da Don, Danja, Ne-Yo, John Legend, Boi-1da, Stargate, Jerry Wonder</b>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<b>Chuck Harmony</b>.</p>
<p>The album encompasses the past two years in Keri&rsquo;s life as she&rsquo;s gone from a hit songwriter responsible for hits by Britney Spears, Pussy Cat Dolls, Mary J. Blige, and Usher to a Grammy nominated singer with #1 songs under her own belt. Representing a myriad of sounds, the Timbaland&ndash;produced &ldquo;Breaking Point&rdquo; is a bluesy call to arms; the kind of song a woman listens to as she musters up the courage and conviction to leave a no-good relationship. Whilst on the other side of the spectrum, the raw and infectious &ldquo;The Way You Love Me&rdquo; feat. Rick Ross, produced by Polow Da Don is a club-thumping message to female empowerment. But that&rsquo;s not to say Hilson&rsquo;s music doesn&rsquo;t speak to the fellas, &ldquo;I write from a female perspective, but I&rsquo;m also telling men what women are really thinking and feeling about them.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Keri&rsquo;s intense focus on&nbsp;<b><i><span style="text-decoration: underline;">No Boys Allowed</span></i></b>&nbsp;has been inspiring to both Timbaland and I, in and out of the studio. This will definitely be one of the best albums of 2010/2011,&rdquo; says Polow Da Don, Co-Executive Producer of the album and Zone 4 President.</p>
<p><b><i><span style="text-decoration: underline;">No Boys Allowed</span></i></b>&nbsp;is a deeply personal project designed to bring women to their feet. The provocative title, is not what you may think, says Hilson. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s not about excluding men. It&rsquo;s more about women understanding that there comes a time in your life when you want a man. A real man. A grown up. Not a boy. And that&rsquo;s not a bad thing.&rdquo;</p>
