Keri Hilson sat down for an interview on the The Breakfast Club radio show where she expressed regret over her 2009 song Turnin' Me On which is largely considered to be dissing Beyonce.
"It’s a regret," she admitted, "But not in the way people would think because that’s a song I actually didn’t write. Those are not my words."
Hilson claimed that she actually tried to turn down the additions to the song when they were presented alongside the original, which was written by Ester Dean.
"Automatically, I was like, ‘I’m not saying that,'" she clarified, "That was my position."
The lyrics in question read, "Your vision cloudy if you think that you’re the best / You can dance, she can sing, but she need to move it to the left, left / She need to go have some babies. She needs to sit down, she fake / I ain’t turning it off, I’m stay turning it on. Go ‘head and tell these folks how long I’ve been writing your songs."
Even though she didn’t know who it was referencing, she knew it was “shady”.
"I tried to fight him on it and I began writing my own but he… It was quite forceful," the singer said of the producer, "In an executive-artist way."
"My album wasn’t out yet, so it was like, 'You're not coming out if you don’t do this,'" Hilson admitted, "The mistake that I made was not continuing to fight, but I was in tears. I was crying. I was adamant that I did not wanna do that."
