Hilson began songwriting in 2001 and would go on to write tracks for Britney Spears, Ciara,Beyonce, Usher, and Ludacris.[2] In 2004, she was featured on Xzibit's single, "Hey Now (Mean Muggin)".[3] In 2006, Hilson signed as an artist with Timbaland's label, Mosley Music Group and appeared on a track on Diddy's Press Play. Hilson was also featured on "Help", the second single from Lloyd Banks' Rotten Apple; the single peaked at #77 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.[4]

While working with Polow da Don in a studio, he asked Hilson "What producer do you think could take you where you want to go as an artist?" She replied with Timbaland, who was in search of a black female solo R&B artist. After singing for Timbaland over the phone, they began recording at The Hit Factory the following weekend.[5][6] In 2007, Hilson made several appearances on Timbaland's solo effort Shock Value, including on the singles "The Way I Are" and "Scream". "The Way I Are" reached #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the U.S.[7] Furthermore, she was featured on the track "Lost Girls" on Zone 4-labelmate Rich Boy's debut album and its second single "Good Things" and was credited as a writer and backing vocalist on Britney Spears's album Blackout.

Hilson also played the lead role in Usher's music video for "Love in This Club", (as well as co-writing its "Pt. II" remix) appeared as one of the "independent women" in Ne-Yo's music video for "Miss Independent".[8]. Later in the year, Hilson performed on Nas' debut single "Hero" from his controversial untitled album; it reached #97 on the Hot 100 and #82 on the R&B/Hip-Hop charts.


[edit] 2008present: In a Perfect World...
After many pushbacks, Hilson's debut solo album In a Perfect World... was released on March 24, 2009.[9] The midtempo ballad "Energy" eventually became the first world single and was released as a digital download on May 27, 2008. The video premiered on July 14, 2008. It charted at number 78 on the Billboard Top 100, number 21 and 72 on R&B 100 and Pop 100 respectively. The single performed best in New Zealand where it charted at number 2 but failed to significantly chart elsewhere. The UK release never materialised. "Return the Favor" was released officially as the second worldwide single (first UK single) on October 7, 2008 and the video, premiered on October 23, 2008.

"Turnin' Me On" (featuring Lil Wayne) was released as the third worldwide single on November 25, 2008.[10] The single has been Hilson's most successful solo offering to date as it peaked at number 15 on the Billboard Top 100, number 2 and 28 on R&B 100 and Pop 100 respectively. It was also the first single to chart in Canada although it did only reach number 80. "Knock You Down" (featuring Kanye West and Ne-Yo) is scheduled to be the "fourth US" from the album as confirmed by Hilson on her Official Album Countdown Video-blog.
