Because I Love It

Amerie

A high-octane collision of go-go percussion, 80s synth-pop, and dense vocal harmonies. It is the sound of a city summer night that refuses to slow down.

2005 · Sony Records Int'l

Relentless, confident energy tempered by moments of shimmering, nostalgic warmth.

Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive brass and breakbeat collision that opens Gotta Work
The shimmering 80s synth pads that wash over the chorus of Some Like It
The dizzying vocal harmony stacks that create a choral effect on Take Control
