Ok this is the first time I can actually answer this question. I know exactly what happened to Amerie. It's the same thing that's happening to Ciara now. The market for female solo R&B artists is too saturated. Her competition was too stiff and she wasn't serving up enough attitude. I guess people just don't like sweet and innocent these days. But I liked that she was sweet and innocent. Not every woman can be all Sasha Fierce and not every woman should be. She was being herself and everyone knows that's something I always respect. I hear she's still doing well in Europe. I hope she'll try the states again someday.
This is her video for Take Control. It's a single that I'll bet no one knew she even had. I sure as hell didn't but that's because its the first single off her third cd (Because I Love It) that she never released in the states.
And this is my favorite video from her. It's Touch featuring TI. Very fashionable video. I freakin love that jungle dress she had on.
