Claude Kelly is an American singer-songwriter who has written songs for Christina Aguilera, Leona Lewis, Britney Spears, Kelly Clarkson, Akon, Lady GaGa, Brandy, and Whitney Houston.
Kelly’s work so impressed Akon that in late 2007, the singer suggested Kelly write to some of his music, one of which was "Forgive Me", written for Leona Lewis' debut album and produced by Akon respectively. Another song he wrote was "Hold My Hand" which was set to feature on Akon's third album, however the song leaked and it was decided not to be included in the album. The song features Michael Jackson.
