Dr. Dre is getting a dose of Keri Hilson for Detox. The “Pretty Girl Rock” singer paid a visit to the Doctor to contribute to his long-awaited project. Miss Keri shares what it was like to be in the studio with the hip-hop icon.
“Dr. Dre is incredible,” she exclusively tells Rap-Up.com. “He’s somebody I always kind of thought, ‘Wow, I wonder what his method is. I wonder what it’s like to be in the room while he does what he does,’ and I got to see it.”
Keri saw herself in her legendary labelmate. “He’s very much a perfectionist and it kinda made me understand myself a little bit, why I’m so particular about certain things,” she reveals. “I saw myself in his light and it was great.”
While she confirms her work on Detox, she’s uncertain if the material will make the 2011 album’s final cut. “I don’t know. We’ll see.”
The first offering from Detox, the Snoop Dogg and Akon-assisted “Kush,” is currently No. 52 on the Billboard Hot 100, while Keri’s sophomore set No Boys Allowed drops Tuesday.

Just put that bitch naked on the cover! lol
Could be a nice feature but only if its a smooth song.. Her voice aint all that..
-
she's not needed
-
Keri can sing plus shes probably replacing Beyonce on whatever she was on cause Interscope wanted so
-
If the song with her is even half as good as "The Way I Are" I'll be satisfied.
-
Could be good if used correctly.

LOL, what a joke.
Not Keri, you guys lol.
Shes a singer, she can sing as hook as good as anyone else. Did you need Keyshia Cole, Chrisette Michelle or Marsha Ambrosius; somebody who isn't considered a "pop star" in order to be satisfied? ::)
You haven't even heard the hook yet.

if it's half as good as that, i'd be disappointed. The Way I Are is cool, but i personally don't think that highly of it

i trust Dr dre.

maybe this will be a "Message" type track dedicated to his son

Chrisette Michelle is a pop star

Chrisette Michelle is a pop star
Have you heard "Epiphany"? ??? Hardly "pop".
& on top of that, in order to be a "star" a basic minimum requirement should be to have a single on iTunes that's in the Top 100, which according to iTunes, she doesn't have.
Keri Hilson, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Beyonce; they are pop. If you can't hear the difference, that's your problem.

Dre has always been about money. Keri is singing a hook. You can either have HIGHLY popular Keri Hilson sing it & make people check it JUST for the feature or a no-name that would be as good a hook, but less appealing without a big name.
Besides recent auto-tuned hooks; popular female artists singing hooks is what sells songs.

I would have liked to have Latoiya Williams instead.

fair enough.
but a big name doesn't necessarily mean you have a certified hit

Dre said he probably won't put the songs for his son on Detox.
