After a brief hiatus from the spotlight, following the poor performance of her ‘In Love & War’ LP, Amerie is back with new track ‘Who’s Gonna Love You?’ Lifted from the recording sessions for her as yet untitled new album, the song – which was released on Twitter moments ago – is believed to be a buzz track. Check it out after the jump…
Finally! Though the hook is a little lacking, this is the first time in a long while that an Amerie cut has possessed an instant likeability for me. A great mesh of Hip-Hop on the production tip, with soulful R&B on the vocals, vocals which themselves are laced with Pop sensibilities (catchy pre-hook/ “Eh eh eh eh”), this is a winner much in the vein of the material on her stunning ‘Because I Love It’ LP. Here’s hoping she serves up more of this goodness on the new record.
