No Boys Allowed is the second studio album by American singer Keri Hilson. It was released on December 21, 2010, by Mosley Music Group, Zone 4, Inc. and Interscope Records. Hilson reunited with the executive producers of her previous albums, Timbaland and Polow da Don. The trio enlisted producers such as Ne-Yo, Tha Bizness, John Legend, StarGate, Bei Maejor and Boi-1da, among others. Meanwhile, Chris Brown, Rick Ross, Kanye West, J. Cole, Nelly and Timbaland himself, contributed guest vocals. Musically, No Boys Allowed is an R&B album, which incorporates elements of pop, soul, electro and dancehall into various songs.
Upon release, the album received mixed reviews from music critics, and peaked at number 11 on the US Billboard 200, selling 102,000 copies in its first week. Although it has since sold 8,000 copies more than her debut album, In a Perfect World... (2009), it failed to match the album's peak position of number four. No Boys Allowed also debuted at number seven on the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and number ten on the UK R&B Albums Chart. The album's lead single, "Breaking Point", was released in the United States on September 7, 2010, and peaked at number 44 on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. The second single, "Pretty Girl Rock", was released on October 12, 2010, and peaked within the top ten on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, as well as the top 15 in New Zealand. Two additional singles, "One Night Stand" and "Lose Control (Let Me Down)", were released for radio in March and May 2011, respectively.
