Now that the singer has been confirmed for a Nairobi concert, guys cannot contain their excitement, me included.
News last week that Keri Hilson will be in Nairobi next month.
The singer, who is currently in Abuja, Nigeria after her concert this past weekend, took time out on twitter to talk about her favorite things in Africa so far.


First on the list (just like many of us) was FOOOOOOOD!!
The singer says African food is absolutely delicious.
Infact when she just landed, she tweeted '1st meal? Jollof rice!! I can't wait! Mos def in my top 3 fav African dishes!! Honestly been craving it ever since I was in Lagos/Calabar'
2) Dance- Keri says he cant get enough of the African Skank. Apparently last time she was in Naija they tried teaching her the 'fufu skank' which is a funny dance done in oga land. Not sure if she learnt it though....

3) Women, and she didn't even add 'No Homo' at the end of her sentence like eeeeh the unwritten rule suggests when proclaiming love for the same sex.
Posting about how beautiful we are, she said quote 'When I tell you African women got BODY tho?! No knife & stitch. Just all natural beauty and BODY. Yeah, all caps!!'

Damn straight its natural! On behalf of all African ladies, thanks Miss Keri *wink*
The singer also LOVES LOVES LOVES African music. According to her, it's sang with so much passion and is rich with culture from all corners of the continent.
Her favorite so far is Ashawo.
