Reason Behind Keri Hilson Getting Blacklisted From The Music Industry: What Happened Between Her And Beyonce?
It all started after she reported a feud with Beyonce. Why? What went wrong? Did you not listen to her 2009’s song, “Turnin’ Me On”? Keri was rumored to have shaded her on the remix version of her song. Still, there seems to be no drama or chaos between them at present. In other words, Keri Hilson and Beyonce have nothing but respect for each other now.
Talking more about the shading part, it didn’t just get limited to Beyonce, but her collaborators – Lil Wayne, Ciara, and T-Pain. Keri said, “Your vision is cloudy if you think that you do the best, You can dance, and she can sing, but you need to move it to the left.” Even though it didn’t mention Beyonce’s name particularly, fans believed that it was pretty much a prominent attack. It was more like, “She needs to go have some babies, she needs to sit down, she fake, them other chicks ain’t even worth talkin’ bout.”
In case you are wondering about this old drama between Keri Hilson and Beyonce, it seemed to refer to the latter’s 2006 song, “Irreplaceable.”
Following this, Keri Hilson received hateful comments from Beyonce’s fans. In other words, she received endless backlash from them. Well, sometimes, hateful comments can be traumatizing. Isn’t it? After several years, more precisely in 2013, Keri Hilson took the discussion to her Twitter account. It was too much and unbearable at the moment. She got pissed off.
You have no idea what your hateful words could do to someone's spirit. Years of verbal abuse from strangers all day long. Enough is enough!
