"Hollywood" was planned to be the fourth single from rapper Jay-Z's ninth studio album, Kingdom Come. The song features Jay-Z's wife, R&B singer Beyoncé. With an original release date of February 2007, the single was repeatedly pushed back probably due to Beyoncé's duet with Shakira, "Beautiful Liar" being released at the same time as "Hollywood". The single was supposed to be released in the U.K. in the summer of 2007, but plans were later scrapped.

The song is also featured on the deluxe edition of Beyoncé's B'Day with Beyoncé on lead and all of Jay-Z's rap verses removed under the title "Welcome to Hollywood".
