...and probably richer than all of Pulse collectively. :kii:
I do miss that hot squawker though. It must suck to have bigger names completely swagger jack you AND steal your signature sound and make it better.

My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 kept using her "Gotta Work" single in their TV spots/theatrical trailer, so is she getting paid still!

Everytime my Pandora plays me "1 Thing", it simply makes me wanna scream. Her swag is undeniable.

I miss her. But if Tweet can return after 10 years away, then Ameriie can release more music one day. EDIT: And I still believe Beyonce asked Columbia to destroy Amerie's career stateside since A shaded B on the BILI mixtape. When did she shade Beyonce? I remember She, Rihanna and Teairra Mari doing a tribute once to Destiny's Child.

Amerie supposedly felt like Green Light was a rip off of 1 Thing and so she aired her feelings out on her mixtape.

^And she was on the same label as Beyonce at the time. Suddenly after the release of her mixtape, BILI kept getting delayed before ultimately not getting released and "Take Control" was never promoted to radio in the US.

Idk Amerie does not seem that petty. Especially since Green Light was not even a big hit. And 1 Thing and Crazy in Love are pretty much in the same vein too.

Pretty much anything Rich Harrison did after working with Amerie was a copy.

He did "Solider" for DC and "Makes Me Wanna Pray" for Christina. Both sounded nothing alike.

My other favorite Rich Harrison production is the unreleased Janet track "Clap Your Hands." It may have been recorded for the Damita Jo sessions BEFORE "1 Thing" though.

And let's not act like Rich isn't versatile. Amerie's (getting back on topic) first album shows how versatile he can be. IMO it's far and away the best debut album by a R&B artist since What's The 411?! Amerie doesn't even have to make another album because all her material is highly regarded and timeless. She's my favorite artist since the 2000s. Love her!

I reread the first post of this thread just now and completely forgot about "Who's Gonna Love You?" being a tentative single. Wow, missed that song!
