In this gripping episode of Talks With Tez, we delve into Keri Hilson's recent revelations on The Breakfast Club, where she opened up about the controversial 2009 remix of "Turnin’ Me On." Hilson disclosed that she was coerced into recording lyrics perceived as a diss towards Beyoncé, under the threat of her debut album being shelved. She expressed deep regret over the incident, stating that the contentious verse was not her own and that she felt powerless during the process. Co-writer Ester Dean has since apologized for her role, acknowledging the lyrics were immature and harmful.
But the conversation doesn't stop there. Tez transitions into a heartfelt discussion on recognizing and avoiding toxic relationships, drawing parallels between Hilson's experience in the music industry and personal relationships. He offers practical advice on setting boundaries, trusting one's intuition, and the importance of self-worth in both professional and personal spheres.
