Amerie - Heard Em All
Artist: Amerie
Producer: Eric Hudson & Sean Garrett
Album: In Love & War
Label: Feeniix Rising Ent.
When it comes to the club scene, pretty girls have it easy; all it takes is a little sprucing up before heading out the door and they can be sure that every eligible man at the spot will be vying for their attention—the downside, of course, is that these ladies also have to deal with the losers and deadbeats that (unfortunately) make up a sizable portion of the male population. On Heard Em All, the newly-released second single off Amerie’s forthcoming Def Jam debut, she vents about all those disappointing fellas over a minimal, synth-accented beat by Eric Hudson. Amerie’s voice is what drives this Sean Garrett-co-penned track forward—which is a good thing, since it takes up almost all of the space in the mix. If this energetic club banger catches your ear, you’re sure to find more to your liking on In Love and War, set to hit stores September 29th.

Not bad, not sure if I would download this to my ipod but if I heard it on the radio, I wouldn't change the station. Maybe I just need to listen to it more and I might like it more.
I was actully hopeing the song would be more silimar to Why R U cause of the hip hop soul feel. But this alright. The more I listen to it, the more I like it. |

Yeah I'm not sure if I would download this but I thought it was kinda cool. Amerie has a good voice no doubt, but I didn't think there was enough goin on and it wasn't catchy enough for me. 2.5, I'll round up though, because it should serve well with the intended audience.

I like the style of this, I got a feeling it will blow up. C'mon, when "Break Up" debuted, we HATED it, look at the reviews. Now we LOVE it and it hit #1 Urban today, Sean Garrett can work wonders. This is a SMASH!

@ dillon_68 i never hated "Break Up" i thought that was a hit since i heard it on here!!!! I'm not the kind to follow what other people like but your right people usually hate a song then once everybody likes it they wanna fit it so they "like it" as well!! If i dont like a song i dont care if it sells a mill in a week i'm not gonna like it!!
This song will do well in the clubs!! Amerie is hot and her voice is great!!!! |

Amerie has a wonderful voice that can only truly be appreciated if you hear her sing live. In fact, most of the material I have heard from this new album is stuff that is perfect with a live band and the works. This is no exception.
Look for her Booth interview coming soon! |

Not really crazy about this one to start. It does sound alil, dare I say, beyonce'ish. But thats cool. I guess I'd play it I don't know, I'm kinda on the fence about this one.

Whoa! Amerie went Tribal on ya'll.
I think it’s something different for her... kind of repetitive though, this actually looks a hit for her. The bridge (breakdown) was real nice .... Its cool but I love her way more than I’m loving this song! :p @BDF44 - I also get a huge Beyonce vibe when i listen to this song. with the “heys” and the runs and the whole “Diva” vibe where shes staten where she been all this time and shes announcing her arrival. Sean Garrett just handed Amerie a fall banger like he did for Beyonce with “Diva” and it just might work .... |

This is a get hyped up over Amerie song.. it's all about her. Kinda song you play to open your live show. She can sing and all but this song is all over the place. Not good! Not ever close to being in rotation.

With this type of song Amerie is showing her vocal skills, but honestly it's not all that as a song...I kinda like the beat but the melody is too undefined, it aims to show her voice and not more

This is the kind of music that gets you exposure. Amerie has never been afraid to step outside of her realm to do something different which is what this industry is missing today. the uptempo cut relies heavily on African drums and a haunting tribal-call sounding hook from Amerie. Frantic, fierce and future hit written all over, this is everything 'Why R U', as the album's lead single, should have been and I still do like 'Why R U'

Punch Amerie!! for the lame that said it sounds like Beyonce, beyonce doesn't have a style, she jacks shit from everybody on the game, then puts her name on it. Amerie girl keep doing your thing, this a hit! It's catchy, dance-able, and she adds her heavy swagg on it, shit bangs HARD!

I love this cut.
Amerie is so HooooooooooooT. I hope Def Jam pushes the hell out of this song and drop a seriously dope video. Ladies and Gentleman pardon the interruption we got a news flash someone in the building said Amerie is back! |
