Keri HilsonR&B singer/songwriter Keri Hilson says "you can buy the chain, but you can't buy respect" on her remix of Soulja Boy's "Turn My Swag On".

Hilson's remix comes nearly a week after a single titled "Turnin' Me Off" was released.

"Turnin' Me Off," a remix of the singer's hit single with Lil Wayne, raised eyebrows when it was deemed to have taken shots at Beyonce and Ciara. (story here) Since then however, Hilson has claimed the song is not about Ciara or anyone in particular.

Monday, "Turn My Swag On" hit the net and picked up where the singer left off, stating "Everytime they see me they say I look good. If you be hating just be mad at yourself."

Clearly making mention of last week's drama surrounding the single, which Hilson says was leaked after Producer Polow Da Don agreed that it should not be released, Hilson sings "I been getting haters like you wouldn't believe. I bet you think this song is about you. Don't you."

In related news, Keri Hilson nabbed Kanye West for the video/single "Make Love". West, who will appear on this week's American Idol broadcast, is Hilson's love interest in the video. (Watch Here)

Keri Hilson's debut album, "In A Perfect World," is slated for release March 24.

    I am so sick of all this keri hilson keri hilson s***, why can't she just stick to what she's good at... writing songs. She is not a vocalist, she is not a dancer, she is not an entertainer. If she can't come out as a solo artist without all her bitter ass s*** then she should just move over for all the other thousand of more talented black female artists out there who would be more interesting and genuine than this waste of space yer so she has been writing since she is twelve Beyonce was doing destiny at eleven so she wrote songs for ciara but ciara is a million times more entertaining... who is even stylin this b**ch, that is the first person she should sack. keri hilson = DULL DULL DULL

  8. aleeshamorgan says:

    Everyone knows she was talking about Beyonce maybe Ciara but come on so what you wrote a couple songs and you're cute--that doesn't mean jack. Then she says the song wasn't about anyone in particular---come on Keri. And to the person that said she can dance......That's a lie..lok at the Turnin me on video--she is stiff as hell..LOL

  9. LaDarius says:

    Yea, there are haters everyday. Keri can sing, & dance just like Beyonce or Ciara. Now calling out B & C was wrong but some on, everyone in the industry makes mistakes. If you like Keri, that's your opinion, but there is nothing wrong with her or her songs. She is beautiful and very talented, and when March 24, 2009 comes, she heading for the #1 spot!

  10. Alicia says:

    don't matter if her album has gotten pushed back she been writing her songs she can talk all the S**T she wants Keri Hilson is bad as hell and she comin for that #1 spot... Get'em Keri
