Turnin Me OFF

You know, I really liked Keri Hilson in the beginning. I thought to myself, "Self, I really like Keri Hilson." And then she came out with that stupid remix to "Turnin Me On." I was astounded that this girl was challenging the Queen Bee! Beyonce! Yes Beyonce is number one, not because I want her to be, but because she is a trendsetter. She has not been dethroned because nobody can outdo her. I used to be a hater like Keri Hilson when I first saw Beyonce. But then I heard her sing, saw her dance, wore her clothes, and realized her potential. She's a mogul. And yes, Miss Keri, you do write songs, but who doesn't? Neyo spent years writing songs and he didn't go throwing it up in anyone's face. Babyface is a great songwriter but he doesn't throw it up in anyone's face. Nope. They do their JOB. It's not like you wrote those songs for free? It's a business. Money for service. And that's the bottom line. Ciara doesn't need to give you props. You didn't raise her. You put some words to a beat and quite frankly Ciara's songs aren't hitting on nothing. I'm sorry but I just think it needs to be said that Miss Keri needs to come back down to size a little.
P.S. I still like Keri Hilson because I think she's got a lot of talent. But if you are going to be a HBIC (thank you Miss Pollard) then you have to own up to it. Don't make a song and then talk about "that's not where the vibe was." Quite frankly my dear, that's bull. You know what you said and how you said it. Live up to it and show us that fake gangster side you trying to pimp out now. Remember Energy? Not so gangsta. Being from Atl doesn't make you hood. Remember that.
