I give credit where credit is due. Will I drag Amerie when I can because of what she's said about Bey in the past? Yes. But I don't hate the bitch. I simply want to get a lick in.

Quote from: Aalonso. on June 07, 2025, 08:17:26 AMIt was never a conversation about taking someone's place, but about a stolen sound.
And everyone is realizing that conversation was dumb as well

Only sound she's ever had is sounding a shrill, screechy mess

Well if she's always gave that, how dumb does someone have to be to just realize that? It's just an opportunity for vengeful faggots with mean girl spirits to dogpile. That's it.
Well we know how the dumb gorls on social media love to lie and re-write history when it comes to Beyoncé and her peers.

"if Aaliyah was here, Beyonce wouldn't be" "Beyonce blackballed Keri" "Amerie was supposed to be bigger than Beyonce"

So yeah, fans who've had to listen to those narrative for years are going to jump on any opportunity to de-bunk

 :dead:
"If only Matthew let Kelly shine!"

Fag, save it.

It's like this somewhat melodic, scratchy yell through the song

I think it's a song that would be hell for anyone to sing live . Even the background vocals were kinda weird

It's what made the song different / stand out , but not every song translates well live . Especially if the artist dares to leave all microphones on

Honestly this live version sounds like I'd expect it to , background singers included
It's not an easy song to sing live because of what you mentioned about it not necessary her "singing" but it should've been keyed differently, especially for the intimate Tiny Desk setting. I thought the background singers did the best with what they could but people were expecting them to save Amerie..

Quote from: RAY7 on June 06, 2025, 10:11:13 PMIt's funny that the background singers didn't come across well because Amerie was just on Questlove's podcast saying background singers can never get her harmonies right lol she should have just let her tracks play
That's actually EXACTLY what I was thinking about while watching this.  I can tell they aren't bad singers, they just weren't good here
This is my pass to say WHATEVER tf I wanna say about the mess she releases so I don't wanna hear SHIT! Baby mama is a mess of a song btw

Quote from: Ulysses on June 06, 2025, 10:04:46 PMWhere are all the girls who were shouting 4 weeks ago about how great of a singer she is??
No one said amerie is a GREAT singer but she can sing, DEFINITELY.  Anyone with an EAR can hear that she sounds like herself and has the ability to sing. If u don't like how she sings in general that's one story but amerie isn't someone who sounds VASTLY different from her recordings

I love Brandy but she was on Tiny desk for a half a minute and she sounded like shit. Does that mean she can't sing?

They did the BEST they could given the direction of who was "leading"

Standing out in your group was a success that fans of other girls would be jealous about?

Like shit? Are you fucking deaf

The BGs not being great was a PART of why this wasn't everything it needed to be.

Quote from: Aalonso. on June 07, 2025, 08:57:24 AMYou're sounding more and more delusional each time you post hun. Ameries first album came out before all of Beyonces albums and that's what made most people fans off jump. Beyonce wasn't even Beyonce when Amerie dropped.
Beyoncé had already sold MILLIONS by the time Cantmerie came around.

Not to mention, it wasn't her sound at all. It was Rich Harrison's sound.
