In case you didn’t know, ‘Never Ever‘, the oft celebrated 2009 cut jam by Pop belle Ciara was co written by fellow ATL-er Keri Hilson.
Indeed, while this remains one of Pop’s best keep secrets, today saw the surfacing of Hilson’s very own take on the track which is reported to be the demo Harris used as the blueprint for the song’s final cut.
Without further delay, listen and compare both versions below…
Nights ago, Urban Pop Prima’s Keri Hilson and Mya helped the people of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania bring in the New Year in the city’s Savoy Restaurant.
Both taking to the venue’s stage to perform cuts from their respective albums, the pair also enjoyed the company of the event’s other guests, one of which was famed comedian Cedric The Entertainer.

Say what you will about Keri Hilson, one can’t knock her charitable efforts.
The ‘Pretty Girl Rock’ singer flew out to Ivory Coast over the Holidays to perform. However, it was a visit to the La Caza children’s orphanage which touched the star most.
Speaking on the experience, Hilson told Okay Africa:
“Yeah, my favorite part by far was visiting La Caza — an orphanage for children who lost their parents in the civil war. It was a really emotional experience and great to get to see the kids smile. For the holidays, I’m sending them over packages of bookbags, t-shirts, sunglasses, notebooks, and even an electric keyboard!”

Kudos to Keri for using her star-power for a worthwhile cause. Not enough artists do.

If the last year has proved anything for Pop maestra Keri Hilson, it is that nothing beats a healthy relationship between an artist and their fans.
For after watching them take her single ‘Pretty Girl Rock‘ to platinum status in the US and its supporting album to the top ten of the UK Album chart, it is fair to say Hilson has made quite impression on her ever tuned in support base.

Weeks ago, Urban Pop Princess Keri Hilson confirmed that she has began work on the follow up to her critically acclaimed LP ‘No Boys Allowed‘.

Now’s the chance to have your say.
Confused?
All will be explained below…
Following the release of her sophomore set ‘No Boys Allowed‘, Keri Hilson has risen to become one of music’s leading staples- slowly but surely cementing her status as the current go to girl for mid tempo Contemporary R&B.
However, despite her undeniable success and new found notoriety ,she still finds herself coming under criticism for having what some might call an ‘off attitude’.
While we here at That Grape Juice wholeheartedly disagree with that stance (she’s nice to us every time we see her), there are some who- quite unfairly- put their dislike for her down to her alleged ‘beef’ with fellow belter Beyonce.
Now peep this video sent to us by a reader this evening and let us know what you think about it…
