Keri Hilson has announced her return to the music scene with a new album titled,?L.I.A.R.?– an acronym for Love Is a Religion.

L.I.A.R., Hilson’s 3rd studio album, follows her 2009 debut In a Perfect World? and 2010?s No Boys Allowed, which featured appearances from Chris Brown, Kanye West, and J. Cole.

Keri says her new album will address her musical hiatus, stating:

?I promise, I will tell my fans everything on this album. Why I was really gone, what actually happened, what didn?t, what I could control, and what I couldn?t,? said Hilson.

?Never will I ever again take a break from music.?

Keri’s first single, ?Again,? is produced by Mike WiLL-Made It and co-written by R. City, the ?raw mid-tempo R&B anthem? is described as ?Keri?s most honest song to-date? and it?will be released?Friday, March 18.

In the new single, Hilson sings about her break-up from Serge Ibaka, stating:

I said I?d never do it again, but I turned around and I did it again / I know I said that this was the end, but I turned around and I did it again,? sings the newly-single Keri. (source)

L.I.A.R., which will be released via Zone 4/Mosley Music Group later this year, also features contributions from Chris Brown, Polow Da Don, Timbaland, Danja, and more.
