Nine local artists to look out for in 2009

Keri Hilson

With her hot single “Turn me on” featuring Lil Wayne burning up the radio, this gorgeous Atlantan is ready to take on the world. A true recipe for success signed to Atlanta’s own Zone 4/ Interscope records under the direction of Super Producer Polo Da Don and writing credits for Britney Spears, Ciara, Usher and Ludacris has only prepared Keri Hilson for a permanent place at the top of the charts with her debut album “In a Perfect World” slated for release in early 2009.
