Beautiful Humanity beat by Ohmega Watts Submission Hold beat by Shuko Calculated Risk featuring Mr. We know it as “Get Right,” which was initially meant for Usher. desperately wanted the song because she had Harrison produce one with a similar sound. Later, it was featured in Will Smith’s romantic comedy Hitch.
Columbia tried to suppress the success of the song. And given her penchant for putting her name on the work of Black women, Amerie made the right decision. But also because Jennifer Lopez, who was Amerie’s label mate, was interested in the song. In 2004, Amerie and Rich leaked the song, hoping to force the label’s hand.

F*ck the numbers.Īnd in sharing their admiration for the song, there were some interesting facts revealed-like how and why the song was released. And even though Amerie’s song is four years too old to be included in the conversation, Black folk wanted to acknowledge it as culturally significant. But now, with the onset of 2020, people are reflecting on memorable moments of the past decade. Shortly after that, Amerie’s career would fizzle a bit.
