First, Beyonce, didn't steal anything from anyone. Just goes to show your complete ignorance, on the subject. Both Crazy In Love, which came out in 2003, and One Thing, which came out in 2005. Were both co-written and produced by Rich Harrison. Why doesn't he ever get any of this ridiculous smoke. Maybe, we're more comfortable pitting women against women!

@BereniceMendesNice 8 жыл бұрын

Actually she teached Beyoncé how to perform, before 2006 and B'Day era, Beyoncé performances were very humdrum... Also that funky jazzy style that defines Amerie's music was stoled by Bey since Harrison was the producer of both of them back in the day... (He's the writer of Crazy In Love) and he was working with Amerie way before Beyoncé did it, so what would have happened if he would have given that song to Amerie first and not Beyoncé?. The only difference between them is that Amerie is a true writer of her own songs, and Beyoncé don't... That's why Ameriie is underrated. It's such a shame.

Bee was already doing the live band, high energy, short skirts/shorts, legs on full display, strutting and dancing in heels, hairography, squad of sexy all female background dancers, basically "young Tina Turner" inspired performances, loooong before Amerie. Bee even featured a special appearance from the famous female drummer Shelia E. in her band back in her 2002 performance in Leno, an idea Amerie later "stole" in THAT 2005 performance.

For whatever reason she stopped. Where others continued. Growing and experimenting. She can definitely return and be a force to reckon with. She's smarter with all those books and still has the "show" in show business. Again I say she is underexposed rather than underrated. Join her book club maybe you can talk her into doing some music too.

I’m so proud of her for not selling her soul and chose to get her degree and move on with her life.

The story has been told multiple times by Amerie and many artists who were around at the time. Amerie who is from the DMV and Rich had been working together song about 2000, Amerie’s solo record came out in 02, Beyonce at the time wanted to go solo so she was looking for songs and productions for the album known as DIL. Beyoncé’s DAD, was head of Sony’s urban department at the time and he was basically handling everyone including DC3, Beyonce, Kelly, Solange, JLO, Amerie etc… Amerie had been experimenting for her next solo effort around 02-03 and she started incorporating gogo sound to her music. Daddy Knowles enjoyed it and asked Rich to basically copy the sound and make a tune or multiple for Beyonce, one stuck out and it was CIL! Beyoncé’s first song out was “work it out” and it TANKED bad, so her dad who is extremely business savvy, decided to go ahead with CIL! It became a smash and later everyone including JLO wanted a piece of Amerie and Rich’s sound hence why you have Get Right. Amerie who was an artist under Matthew Knowles supervision had her album pushed back hence why it only came around 04/05 because budget wise everything went to Beyoncé’s record and promo. Now I love Beyoncé, she is hard working and excellent at her craft but but she definitely did some shady ish on her way to the top.

I still STAN. Yaas girl. See, Amerie has the ability to have fun, be sexy and talented and not present an attitude like, "I'm better than you". She still seems humble even today. Unlike the other one who stole her song, sound and all her moves. I don't have anything against her personally but she has yet to give me an authentic feel as Amerie does. Anyway, keep rockin, y'all.

BIIIG FACTS!!! I was a Beyoncé stan since my early teens & even then, I was unbias enough to admit that Amerie was THE artist/performer before Beyoncé ever was. Not to take away from the phenomenon that Beyoncé grew to become, BUT Amerie had it first - and I firmly believe that had the industry not maliciously do what they did to her; she'd have given Beyoncé a run for her money. This performance alone for me exudes the type of performance Beyoncé gave 2 years later on her 'The Beyoncé Experience' tour.
