Ur right. But fact is a fact. lol. Both of them dropped classic albums back to back. All I Have and Dangerously In Love.People steal things every day, it dont mean its gonna work.
Lightning rarely strikes the same place twice.
I should not have to point out the obvious too lol
The point is, it was a sound that Amerie started using from her hometown that yes, Chuck Brown is the Godfather of
Beyonce sharked the sound Amerie came in the game with
End of story
God, some of y’all are so funny and doughty lmao
Keri had the voice to compete but not the machine. Amerie might have peaked a bit later anyways. Plus her recent years showed she wasn’t missing much.
I can’t entertain this thread anymore lol
Bottom line is Amerie was already poppin' as a solo artist with Rich. At the same time Beyonce was freshly post-DC trying to find a sound putting out subpar /fake Tina Turner shyt like Work It Out.Amerie came in the game with "Why Don't You Fall In Love" and "Talkin To Me", which aren't Go Go at all. If we're saying Beyonce sharked Amerie then by default, you'd have to concede that Amerie sharked Mary J. Blige. Why? That particular sound was found on Mary's albums with the same producer before Amerie debuted.

There was an article that was out at the time Dangerously in Love dropped where Rich talked about how Beyonce/or someone associated with her heard the beats he was cooking for Amerie in the studio and did a power move jack. Amerie and Rich was also going through some issues as well after the first album and he had her signed to a production deal. So all of that was taking advantage of.
I have not seen the article in years/it's probably been scrubbed, but I do locate it then![]()
Ur right. But fact is a fact. lol
She was lying. She made like she didn’t push the narrative and add to it. If u were around back then and saw her interviews u would know what im talking about.
he know Nicki Minaj and dated Beyoncé dance leaderI was around. I just understand how stories develop and end up evolving into something completely different from what actually happened. Amerie has shot down those rumors. Ester Dean came out to confirm Keri's claims. Yet here you are basically saying they're all lying and you know the truth.... like you were there to witness when the whole thing went down.
Shyt, maybe you were there. Tell us what else they all lying about......??
None of us in here are talking about sounding the like production on the debut, we're talking about style, vocal runs, delivery and etc, along with strong armed beatsBreh, nothing on Amerie's debut sounded like "Crazy In Love". Amerie was on the same label as Destiny's Child. Nothing Amerie had was as ever as big as "Crazy In Love". You and others acting as if he created "Crazy In Love" for Amerie and Beyonce strong armed it. This is Rich Harrison's account of how the song was created:
Story of the song: Crazy in Love, Beyonce (2003) - Features, Music - The Independent
It was Beyoncé Knowles herself who pinpointed what madeweb.archive.org
^^^ this is his account of the song's creation.
Amerie and Rich weren't having issues until Touch. This was after Crazy In Love. Rich still did 6/13 tracks on that album.

They were having issues before Touch, hence why breh only did a couple tracks on that album. She was trying to get out of that production deal that's known facts, Rick was salty.
Like I said if I find the article to back that shyt up then![]()
