I mainly got it for the Mya interview included, but was surprised when Amerie was also in there. The interview im talking about is from an issue of XXL, its actually a special issue called Hip Hop Soul and has Usher on the cover. E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator Anyway, her mix tape is hot.įrom the looks of that Vibe interview she did she doesn't appear very sweet at all but instead very demanding. It didn’t sound like she had beef with Rich and I think they may work together in the future but right now they’re apart and probably more for the reasons you described. She then went on to sing Lose Control flawlessly. People that know me know what I do and what I sound like. The interviewer said that some people think that Beyonce stole some of her Amerie-isms especially on B’Day.Īmerie basically said I don’t think she stole them. She said she has no beef with Beyonce but a lot of people seem to think so.

I also heard her just a few weeks ago in an interview and it seemed very similar to what you described about being baited into talking about-well specifically Beyonce. Sometimes too sweet for the music industry it seems but I think she’s a bit tougher than she may appear. But dont think you will catch Amerie talking trash in interviews, she is approaching 30 now and she doesnt roll like that she says, life's too short and "Beefs" are immature and stupid.Īmerie is a very sweet person. Amerie's new cd will be out Jan/Feb and she has been leaking tracks all over the place on Mix tapes, and one song is said to be a "Green Light" sounding song, as a shot at Mr. Harrison is gone from Ameries new cd and any tracks he did with her. To this day i thought there was some sort of problem between Amerie and Beyonce but its not the case, the too have actually recently worked together, however, though Amerie doesnt state it, there is an issue with Producer Rich Harrison, who may have "lifted" her sound and given it too Beyonce for a bigger payday, which is why Mr. Knowles, possibly from Sony execs, who suggested a change of sound for Beyonce, Boom, there came " Crazy in Love" and then when Ameries "1 thing" was released after, she mainly looked like a follower, despite doing the track first and having a hand in alot of the sound. Well somehow these tracks got back to Mr.

Well Rich took them to Sony and they were turned down, the reason being was that Sony wanted a full album not 2 tracks, but AMerie at the time wasnt finished fully, so rather than rush the rest of the tracks they sat on them, and leaked them underground, clubs, mixtapes etc. Now in case you all dont know, a few years back Rich Harrison and Amerie put together "1 thing" and "Talkin Bout" two very fresh sounding tracks at the time in the RB climate. But when she was talking i realized that there are alot of shady things going on with her former producer and Mr.Knowles. My high heels are clicking towards your door.Well just caught some of an interview with Amerie, who I love, and mostly the interviewer was bating her into saying something bad about any other RB females, but of course she is mature unlike the interviewer or the magazine. It's this one thing don't want to admit it It's this one thing that caught me slippin' It's this one thing that's got me trippin' (you did) It's this one thing that's got me trippin' Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer Na, na, na, na, na, oh It was later named the 22nd and 25th best song of the 2000s decade by Rolling Stone and Robert Christgau, respectively.

Its digital download and ringtone releases were each certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). "1 Thing" received acclaim from critics, and peaked at number eight on the Billboard Hot 100 and number four in the United Kingdom, becoming Amerie's first top-10 single and her biggest singles to date, also peaking at number one on the US R&B singles chart. The song was released as the album's lead single in 2005, and is the only single from the soundtrack to the 2005 romantic comedy film Hitch. Its lyrics focus on an unidentified "thing" that fuels a romantic attraction. Written by Amerie and Rich Harrison and produced by the latter, the song is influenced by go-go rhythms and features a prominent sample of the Meters' 1970 funk recording of "Oh, Calcutta!", written by Stanley Walden. "1 Thing" is a song by American singer Amerie from her second studio album, Touch (2005).
