Listen To This: Hit 'Em Hard!

Filed under: Listen To This > Lil' Wayne

amerie_29.jpg

This gives us high fever!

Major fire!!!!!

The Beyonce comparisons will be made, but that's not necessarily a bad thing!

Amerie is back with a new song - featuring Lil' Wayne - and she's IN YOUR FACE!

It feels very similar to something Beyowulf would do, and we like it!

The beats are thick and heavy. And the lyrics are brash and bold.

It's a total club-banger!

Check out Amerie's Heard 'Em All (below).

  1. 1

    ooooo i likie!!!!!!!! its about time she got a track out!



  2. 2

    I like her boobies.



  3. 3

    I'm sick of this kind of garbage.



  4. 4

    there is no Beyonce comparison, Beyonce couldn't and wouldn't do anything this good. All Beyonce wants to do is yodel in songs and have people fawn over her. Why people think she is all that is beyond.

    This Amerie is good and different.



  5. 5

    I Am A Total B Fan But Amerie Was Doing This Years Before Beyonce .. Remember One Thing.. Its Her Signature Style



  6. 6

    who is she? She's very pretty!
    But if the only thing you can think to say about her is she "sounds like Beyonce"… I'll skip it thanx.



  7. 7

    Sorry, but this sucks. I detest Beyonce, but B blows this bitch out of the water. There is nothing original about this shit.



  8. 8

    Sounds good to me.



  9. 9

    song is a bit too sampled… how come there aren't any good songs out there…more instrumental rather than singing! ~tina, myporndrive



  10. 10

    Wow dis is good!! luvit!



  11. 11

    love Amerie! she stayed at a hotel i worked at….unfortunately i wasn't working but everyone said she was very nice and very petite…….completely underrated….



  12. 12

    eh.



  13. 13

    meh. unoriginal.



  14. 14

    omg i coudlnt stand her than i cant stand her now shes wack and her voice is sooo damn annoying



  15. 15

    boring… like wtf.. over it…. i liked her better before…



  16. 16

    Hot looking, but no Beyonce. That's for sure. Would have been a good song if it wasn't for Lil' Wayne. He ruined the song.



  17. 17

    Re: candycaynegirl – she's quite a good singer…..had a song out couple of years ago "why don't we fall in love" which is probably what she'd be best known for. I highly suggest her!!

    p.s. i cannot stand beyonce and/or "sasha fierce"……WTF is that ne way……



  18. 18

    I'm not really feelin' it. I don't think she sounds like Beyonce at all on this track. She actually sounds horrible and she's a much better artist and has done much better stuff than this! It might grow on me…but I'll listen to her old school stuff.



  19. 19

    Re: jesyrene – Seconded.



  20. 20

    She's pretty. At least she's not yelling at the listener like Beyonce! It scary when she yells at me :(



  21. 21

    I've loved Amerie since "Why Don't We Fall in Love." She's awesome.



  22. 22

    loves it! :) she totally sounds like B.. and thats deffinitely a good thing.



  23. 23

    This song is SOOO HOT!!! If you don't know about Amerie, you NEED to know. Shes writes her own lyrics, co-produces, co-directs her videos, and the list goes on. She's not some manufactured R&B artist like Beyonce or Rihanna. She stays true to her style and doesn't worry about what everyone else is doing on radio. She is the real deal.

    Trust me folks, 2009 will be her year.



  24. 24

    and FYI, Beyonce is the one who has been jockin' her sound.



  25. 25

    it's all beat and no vocal substance. sounds like r. kelly produced this track. he shouldve written some killah lyrics for amerie. i can appreciate her (talent?), but she's only good for one single. step ur game up amerie. whitney's back, bidtches!



  26. 26

    Re: fpfna6

    LMAO @ Beyonce yodeling in her songs!!! Very true! I'm not hatin on B, but the girl just can't sing to me. Amerie is a much better singer!!



  27. 27

    nice! i like it but i can't imagine B doing this



  28. 28

    Re: the_shoparazzi – The song was produced by Eric Hudson and written by Sean Garrett. I believe she had a hand in co-writing the track, but Amerie is an artist who has substance in her music unlike other r&b singers. Youtube her songs "Why R U," "Red Eye," and "Tell Me You Love Me" which are tentative tracks on her new cd, "In Love and War." Her lyrics are real and takes a different approach.



  29. 29

    what's her ass look like? Beyonce or Megan Fox



  30. 30

    I love Amerie!! I hate Lil' Wayne…



  31. 31

    Three remarks:
    ____________

    1) Nice song…but it sounds a little too much like beyonwolf (who is utterly and completely annoying due to her greed and selfish behavior)
    2) Missed AMERIE! so nice to see her back! She is totally underrated and extremely beautiful + talented.
    3) Lil' Wizzy ruined the song. I can no longer tolerate is whining/rapping in songs.

    All in all, I Love the track (and Amerie)…but because it's sooo beyonce-ish, I can't help but to feel annoyed while listening to it. =(



  32. 32

    this girl can't hold up to beyonce and destiny's child accomplishments. f this girl and next!!!



  33. 33

    perez man….you need to catch up…this has been leaked for months.
    anyways i LOVE Amerie. the girl is great and totally underrated.
    i'd take her over beyonce anyday.

  34. F18 says – reply to this


    34

    HORRIBLE! This sucks!!!!

    lil Wayne doesn't even try to be original anymore….



  35. 35

    I can't even listen to it cause its freakin lil wayne… bleh! she is very pretty in this pic.



  36. 36

    There is NO comparison between Amerie and Beyonce. Beyonce hits notes. Amerie tries and FAILS!



  37. 37

    i like this song, does kind of sound like beyonce, but its her own style of it



  38. 38

    I Love Amerie and I love this song, thanks!



  39. 39

    I like Amerie, but, the first two tracks leaked from her new album haven't been first listenings…….I trust the album will be stronger. Too bad, her last album was only released internationally.

  40. Dyson says – reply to this


    40

    It sounds like Beyonce, or even maybe older Jlo, or maybe a couple Toni Braxton and Mary J songs, because they all have taken Amerie's sound. Sure Beyonce may do it better, but she has Amerie to thank period as Crazy in Love, Suga Mama and all her dance songs take from what Amerie gave us back in 2002 with her debut, before Beyonce was a solo artist.



  41. 41

    Been an Amerie fan for years, she's amazing.



  42. 42

    Omg, I love her! Where has she been and why has she taken so long to release an album? And az far as Miz Bey comparisons, this chick is one on her own. Do people REALLY have to compare OTHER vfemale black artists to Bey??



  43. 43

    Re: keybeats00 – Amen to #23.



  44. 44

    Also, she is actually from my state, Texas. She was born and raised on an army base in Killeen. She is soo beautiful. I like Bey, but she is hyped up too bad. Bey has a couple of great songz but I think she gets waay too much hype. Don't get me wrong Bey is very talented in MANY aspects but I was just never a HUGE fan of Bey. Wouldn't buy any of her albumz b/c she get's far too much radio play.



  45. 45

    Amerie is the best I remember back in 2002 When iIfirst herd" why don't we fall in love" then in 2005 "1 Thing" came out it was epic as well as this song finally perez got something right



  46. 46

    i don't know if she could've been able to stop beyonce's career, but if it wasn't for amerie beyonce wouldn't have crazy in love (which IMO was beyonce's only great song). she stole amerie's entire sound. 1 thing was supposed to be released before beyonce's song, but the label didn't like. this style was amerie's way before it was beyonce's.



  47. 47

    amerie sounds good, and have some other music that she did a while back that was really banging. its about time we get some more artist on the map and she danses and act too. but the neat thing about this sexy singer is that she hold a degree from georgetown, and she is as sharp as pen.



  48. 48

    looking at that picture of her she reminds me of two or three different people . she is very beautifyl and sexy and thats some beautiful long natural hair thats all hers.



  49. 49

    Could do without Wayne, but the track is a heater!



  50. 50

    by now every one knows about bey jacking other people work and dance moves and calling it her own, she needs to stop that mess and do her own thing. do something other than hate on every body that can dance , act and sing. people are finding out more and more about her scheming ways every day.



  51. 51

    this amerie is a natural beauty, with style , class, sings, dances , acts and has a degree. and she has traveled all over the world because her dad was in some branch of the service.



  52. 52

    amerie has adds running in other countries and she speaks more than just the english language.

  53. mute says – reply to this


    53

    love amerie.. she needs more push.. thanks for posting, perez



  54. 54

    the intro voice sounds like whomever it is needs to grow balls.



  55. 55

    Re: RobPnMeShouldB – I agree I love Amerie. I did like One Thing she did with Eve. And also she did a song with Ricky Martin. I do like the song.



  56. 56

    Re: PerezTheBlogNazi – Hey sweetie! I love One Thing that she did with Eve too! Also don't forget that song with Ricky Martin. She is good. Hope you are well. I will be back soon. One of my cousin has the big C.
    It's hard she is young. Love Ya!



  57. 57

    Okay DUMBASS that said Amerie was doing this type of music before Bey..get ur facts right because One Thing by Amerie came out in Spring of 2005…Beyonce came out solo with Crazy in Love in summer of 2003..DUMBASS



  58. 58

    I like it! Perfect for dancing and she looks very pretty!



  59. 59

    horrible. i only like lil wayne.



  60. 60

    Beyonce comparisons will be made? Is this a joke? This song sucks!!



  61. 61

    her best song since her first single came out in '02! glad to hear from amerie again! =]



  62. 62

    god that song sucks, how can perez call this a good club song, its so flat and boring, and beyonce wouldn't have anything to do with that shitty song, i dont like beyonce either but i think if she had the chance of recording this she would just laugh her ass off… i like lil wayne and he can do better then this shitty stuff your callin music. Perez if this the kind of music u think sounds good, go get your ears checked, maybe they were already bleeding from lady caca's shit show u call good music



  63. 63

    YAY i miss Amerie and i love this song

  64. Dani says – reply to this


    64

    you basically have no idea what you are talking about - the beats are heavy? Are you kidding me?!?



  65. 65

    Yeah, I don't see this being compared to Beyonce, it's not good.



  66. 66

    Re: Paris France – Hey darling! I hope to catch you again. I don't comment very often b/c the articles have sucked eggz lately, but yeah I have alwayz loved Amerie.



  67. 67

    Re: Paris France – God bless your cousin too. I hope she get's well.



  68. 68

    love it
    and yeah it's atotal club-banger



  69. 69

    i dig it.. bigtime



  70. 70

    I'm so glad you are finally talking about her! I've loved her for years now! And yea she may sound like Beyonce, but Amerie had this sound wayyy before her.



  71. 71

    I really like her and was wondering when she was going to bust out again. 1thing is my shyt! This is bunk though her voice is better than that and Lil Wayne = Same chyt different song. He ruined it.



  72. 72

    like it a little
    only because i know a skank video
    is going to result from it

    if i had more confidence in Amarie
    i would probably feel diffrently



  73. 73

    be yourself!!!



  74. 74

    this is so hot! LOVES IT



  75. 75

    that was awful. i couldnt even finish..



  76. 76

    omg! I love Amerie!! I wondered where she went! Glad she's back!!



  77. 77

    club banger?! beyonce>this girl
