Stuck In Our Head: "Knock You Down" - Keri Hilson with Kanye West and Ne-Yo

Earlier this year we were vaguely damning about Keri Hilson's long delayed solo 'effort' - we just didn't think it had the personality to cut it. Well we'd probably still stand by that statement in terms of the album-as-a-whole, but that doesn't stop us thinking this single is VERY GOOD. It has enough hooks to keep everyone happy, and that sort of vaguely 'ravey' (take note, Steve Appleton) R&B synth that Timbaland made popular. The tune is also stellar. Yes, yes it doesn't reinvent the pop wheel and it's not going to change your life, but sometimes, as we've said before and we'll say again, you just have to let your ear-organs take over and just enjoy. Bonus point as well for:
"I was the captain of my pimp ship flying high."
Classical!
