A gravação de "Controversy" aconteceu no verão de 1981 no estúdio residencial de Prince, o Kiowa Trail Home Studio, em Chanhassen, Minnesota.
A faixa foi gravada nas mesmas sessões que as músicas "Poppa Grooves" e "Tick, Tick, Bang".
O álbum contendo a música foi finalizado no Sunset Sound, em Hollywood, Califórnia, entre 14 e 23 de agosto de 1981.
"Controversy" serviu como lado B para as versões alemãs e japonesas do single "Sexuality" em 1982.
Em 1982, a faixa também foi incluída como a terceira música na versão australiana em vinil 12 polegadas do single "1999".
Uma versão ao vivo gravada em 2003 foi disponibilizada para download na loja Musicology Download Store do NPG Music Club em 2004.
