| Аннотация к альбому In A Perfect World Keri Hilson |
In a Perfect World… is the debut album of American R&B and pop singer-songwriter Keri Hilson, released March 24, 2009 on Zone 4. The album has been a lifelong ambition of Hilson's and has been 3 years in production. It was originally planned for a 2007 release but was pushed back multiple times into 2009, as Hilson stated herself, mainly due budget restrictions at her label and only minor single release successes. Finally the album was confirmed for release in North America on March 24, 2009 and debuted on the Billboard 200 at a respectable number four, having sold over 94,000 copies in its first week.The album was certified Gold on October 22, 2009.
The album features introductory single "Energy" which although failed to ignite charts in the US and UK performed much better in New Zealand where it reached number 2. Second single "Return The Favor" also proved unsuccessful in the US but went on to become a top 20 hit in South Africa, Australia and the UK. The album's third single "Turnin' Me On" gave Hilson her first top 20 debut in the US whilst fourth single "Knock You Down" has proven to be the most successful becoming a top 5 hit in the US, New Zealand, the UK and Ireland but also a top 20 hit in other territories. "Slow Dance" is being lined up as a fifth single for the US whereas "Energy" has been re-promoted as the next international single on September 13, 2009.Allmusic listed the album as one of 2009's best pop albums and best R&B albums on its annual year-end best albums list.
