I think it must be pretty tough to be a solo female R&B artist, such as Amerie. She’s so gorgeous, and so talented. It’s gotta be tough because you know you’re gonna be constantly compared to BEYONCE. How frustrating! And if you’re not doing as well as Beyonce, then you get ripped-off. It’s so cut-throat, and sometimes, a load of bullshit!

i agree completely! hearing the album (via download on an obscure blog), i was surprised. the album IS solid. i even have a couple favorites. ‘Crush’ being one of them!

it’s a waste of music as far as i’m concerned. especially seeing how many people went crazy over all the timbaland 80’s stuff. Amerie has hardcore 80’s production on this album without all the extra played out sound of timbaland (now i loved shock value just as much as the next guy, but come on now. you could only hear ‘the way i are’ so many times…). she had a new spin on that sound, and she didn’t even get to play it out on american air waves! she needs to pull a monica and take the best of ‘because i love it’ and add some brand new shit to it. new title. BAM! haha

Now I see why Amerie and Kelly Rowland have become such good friends; they both have alot in common. They’ve both been dragged through the mud by their record labels. I appreciate Ameries honesty and boldness. Hopefully her approach to what’s going on will get her the results that she deserves for her current album and career as a whole,and maybe she can give her girl Kelly some pointers. When she said that her label wanted to keep waiting to release a single I couldn’t help but think about Kelly Rowland because her label has done the same thing to her. I mean why on earth does it take nearly five months to release a single,and five more to put out a video. Both these girls need to drop their labels and start their own empire. They won’t get the respect or recognition that they deserve until and unless they take it.

She need to go lable shopping. she knows what she want and she’s not getting the time to do it because her record label is holding her back… that’s not right.

Good luck to her.

Sad to say, but this is a clear case of Beyonceitis. I think she should just work on a new album, and try again.

Sad to hear. Amerie is really talented and listening to her one gets the clear impression she really knows what she is doing. “Because I Love It2 is a really cherent album and some very very interesting sounds (Beyonce wishes) so it’s a shame they have destroyed it… amazing a girls so beautiful, talented and groovy can be destroyed like this. We’ll she’ll find another way. momentum is everything

Sad. You can only get kicked down so many times. How much more will she stand for? She's not desperate and her voice is good (can get a bit strained e.g. Gotta work) so take your service elsewhere before you hit rock bottom.
