Keri Hilson Comeback: 'Pretty Girl Rock' Singer Talks New Album, Kanye West Collaboration

Apparently, Keri Hilson can't stay out of the game for too long. The "Pretty Girl Rock" singer has been on a hiatus as of late but is currently making the rounds to discuss her new album (the first since 2010's No Boys Allowed) and collaborations with Kanye West.

"Musically, I did take a break. It seemed long to everyone, but it was a pretty brief hiatus," the singer told XXL. "But I'm back in the studio, putting together my album. We are pretty close to choosing the single. We've thought we have chosen the single. We are almost there." 

And in case you think Keri needs to make a grand return to the industry to remind folks of her existence, Ms. Hilson wants you to know she's got this.

"The music is going to speak for itself. I don't think I need to re-introduce myself to the world," Hilson said. "I've been blessed to have fans all over the world. I know that they will hold me down and spread the word...It's driven all by the music. It's not from my fashion. It's not from anything but my lyrics. Just the songs. The music and the feeling people get from it. I'm most proud about that. I think this time around it will be the same way with a bigger impact." 

Keri also added that she will be retreading familiar territory by collaborating with "Hold You Down" guest Kanye West.

"I've actually worked with him," she said of the Yeezus auteur. "I can't say much about it, but it was awesome. He's a genius. I really, really enjoyed working with him."
