We recently hosted, singer/songwriter Keri Hilson to the studio to record two exciting new tracks. The first is a track for Sean Paul’s upcoming album, Imperial Blaze. The second is a track produced by Timbaland featuring Jay Z. Engineering the session was Detroit based engineer/producer Mike Chav.
Over the past few years Mike Chav has built his roster of clientele, working with some of the biggest names in hip hop to date such as Eminem, Method Man, The Game, Snoop Dogg, Busta Rhymes, Jay Electronica, and alongside producers Dr. Dre and Denaun Porter. During 2006 and 2007, Mike played a big part in the production and engineering of Erykah Badu’s fifth studio album New Amerykah Part One (4th World War), released in February 2008.
As a member of an admired songwriting team known as The Clutch, Keri Hilson has set the stage for herself, penning for artists such as Britney Spears, Ludacris, Mary J.Blige, Omarion, Usher, the Pussycat Dolls and Ciara. Her infamous vocal arrangements have been featured on Britney Spears’ Blackout, Timbaland’s Shock Value, Asher Roth’s Asleep in the Bread Aisle, and Xzibit’s Weapons of Mass Destruction.
With three years in production, Keri’s debut album In a Perfect World was released on March 24, 2009. The album’s fourth single Knock You Down featuring Kanye West and Ne-Yo has become the most successful, topping the charts at number three on the Billboard Hot 100 and number one on Billboard Radio Songs.
