Clipse ft. Keri Hilson & Pharrell – All Eyes On Me

The ’s Rick Rubin produced Till The Casket Drops is almost upon us, dropping sometime in October. “All Eyes On Me” features one of the sickest beats The Neptunes have produced in quite a while. This new song, (second single? third single? I honestly don’t know…) is probably my favorite cut from the album so far.

I can appreciate — She was, after all, that inescapable voice of 2007′s summer on Timbaland’s ultra-hit “The Way I Are” — but I can’t help but to feel that Rihanna would have made this song a lot more special. Keri’s voice sounds sullenly lifeless. Or maybe I’ve been jamming to “Live Your Life” for far too long.

Keri or Rihanna, this is one hell of a song. Listen to it here

LOVE this. Wish there were longer dance breaks and the background loops were louder.

And agree. Hilson is a bit weak. She has a kind of huskiness that works with the beat, but someone like Kelis could have done it better. Or take it in a totally different direction with someone like Beyonce or Mariah Carey.
