Keri Hilson Reveals She Was ‘Forced’ to Record Beyoncé Diss Track She Didn’t Write

The drama dates back to her 2009 track “Turnin’ Me On (Remix),” in which she seemingly took aim at a fellow female artist with lines that fans interpreted as a direct jab at Beyoncé. Over the years, the song fueled rumors of a feud between the two singers, leading to backlash against Hilson. However, she now claims that she never intended to shade Beyoncé and that the lyrics were not her own.

“I was young, new in the industry, and I didn’t have the power to say no,” Hilson admitted. “I didn’t even write the song, but I was pushed to record it. It was a situation I didn’t have control over.”

The revelation has sparked a wave of renewed discussion among fans, with many expressing sympathy for Hilson’s past struggles in the industry. Others are questioning the behind-the-scenes pressures that often force artists into controversial situations.

Despite the long-standing rumors, Hilson has previously stated that she holds no ill will toward Beyoncé and even admires her as an artist. In recent years, she has focused on her personal growth and music, working to reclaim her narrative.

With this latest confession, Keri Hilson hopes to put the past behind her and move forward—on her own terms.
