Hello!!!!!
I hope all of you are well, but I just want to make it clear because I am receiving A LOT of questions regarding our first single Patron Tequila A.K.A. Hey Girl. We actually recorded Patron Tequila(Hey Girl) before Miss Keri. She tried it out after us, but it didn't work out because we are having Patron Tequila as our first single. Her version got put on youtube somehow, but ours will be out world-wide and I can guarantee you will only be saying Patron Tequila, not Hey Girl. Much respect to Miss Keri and Turnin Me On, but I said "PATRON TEQUILA"! Thank You Everyone For Everything. Also Keep Your Eyes And Ears Open because its any day now!
smile~~ xxoo ~~Chelsea

Keri should have turned into Sasha and stolen it anyway.

So I'm guessing the full version of this song will not leak? that's a shame because most people agreed that is the BEST material that has leaked so far. it would have been the best song on the album

All Music Guide Review (Rating: 4/5):

Andy Kellman
After lengthy delays and some surprisingly low-performing singles, In a Perfect World… was issued in March 2009 and happened to sync up with Keri Hilson’s first solo Top 20 hit, the coquettish trunk rattler “Turnin’ Me On.” Prior to this, Hilson was quite familiar with high chart positions as a songwriter and featured vocalist. She co-wrote Mary J. Blige’s “Take Me as I Am” and Omarion’s “Ice Box,” both of which went Top Five Hip-Hop/R&B, as well as Ludacris and Blige’s “Runaway Love,” Timbaland’s “The Way I Are” (featuring Hilson on vocals), and Britney Spears’ “Gimme More,” all of which were Top Five pop hits. Throw in some other prominent features, including Xzibit’s “Hey Now (Mean Muggin’),” Diddy’s “After Love,” two additional highlights from Timbaland’s Shock Value, and Nas’ “Hero,” and you have an established track record for a serious singing/songwriting threat — Siedah Garrett to the tenth power or stiff competition for Ne-Yo and the-Dream.
With all but three of the 14 tracks produced by some combination of Timbaland, Polow da Don, and Danja, In a Perfect World… nonetheless reflects the versatility Hilson demonstrated prior to its release. It’s a songwriting showcase as much as it is a coming out for a full-blown artist, yet more about what Hilson can do than who Hilson is. If she wasn’t so adept with her pen, didn’t fill the songs with her beaming personality and casually fluid voice, and didn’t have top-level producers providing mostly excellent beats, it would be a mess. Sonically and (especially) lyrically, the album covers most bases when it comes to pop-oriented R&B, all scattered across a set that is heavy on solid club tracks (including the kinetic clap-and-bounce of “Get Your Money Up,” a female anthem) and passable-to-steamy ballads (ranging emotionally from seductive to regretful). The slower tracks don’t match up to their opposites, or even the bittersweet midtempo cut “Alienated,” but they’re not enough of a snag to prevent the album from being one of 2009’s most replayable R&B releases.

Intuition's beat randomly got stuck in my head even though I haven't listened to this in days.  Anyway I've come to the conclusion that the album is good. I doubt it will be in my top 10 albums of the year, but it's better than a lot of other stuff out there.

Same here. However, I think the album is gonna get old in a few weeks 
Right now my favorite tracks are Make Love, How Does It Feel, Where Did He Go, and Get Your Money Up

Anything above 20k-40k will be great.
I hope her album won't dive fast though and she better start do some TV promotion .
