Ameriie Visits ‘The Breakfast Club’ / Addresses Hiatus & Beyonce Comparisons

Published: Thursday 19th May 2016 by Sam

After an extended spell out of the spotlight, Ameriie stopped by The Breakfast Club on Power 105.1 today.

Ever eloquent, the ‘Why Do We Fall In Love’ songstress explained her lengthy hiatus from the music scene, her flair for fiction writing, and the release new material – the first taste of which arrives tomorrow in the form of an EP named ‘Drive.’

In true ‘Breakfast Club’ tradition, she was grilled about a host of topics – including whether she feels Beyonce bit her “go-go” sound following the success of ‘One Thing.’

A long but insightful watch…

We love us some Ameriie and feel her albums house some of the most underrated songs we’ve heard in a decade.

However, the relaxed approach to releasing music has rendered her unknown to a large portion of the record buying public. As Charlamagne pointed out, her last album dropped in 2009. Two-Thousand-And-Nine.

Worse still, her output since then has been scant, making us wonder exactly what she means about liking the freedom to keep the momentum moving. She’s barely released anything.

Still, she’s immensely talented, looks, and sounds great.

Rant aside, we’re glad she’s back. Hopefully, she doesn’t disappear again either.
