That's one of the reasons why it wasn't a stretch for child actress Brie Larson to record an album for Universal - like Hilary Duff and Lindsay Lohan, she was only doing what was required to be a tween star in the early 2000s.

See what Twitter University had to share and what Amerie herself thinks of all this love.(one word all caps no meaning except their music) Rolling Stone would eventually name the song one of the best songs of the 2000s decade. It went on to earn Amerie a Grammy Award nomination for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance. 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. Columbia, her label at the time, wasn’t convinced the song was a hit. It was the only single from the album because Amerie and her writing partner Rich Harrison had to sneak and release it. Influenced by go-go rhythms and sampling The Meters’ “Calcutta,” it rose to number 8 in the Billboard Hot 100 that year and number 1 on the Hot R&B/Hip Hop charts.

Sony was hesitant to release it and some other interesting tidbits. Turns out there was another artist who wanted it. 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.

Not to mention the dance-ability of the song was remarkable. At the few parties I attended, the song we most wanted to hear at house parties, birthday shendigs and on our self-created mixes, was Amerie’s “1 Thing.” With the sound of blaring horns, kicking drums and a groove that couldn’t be denied, it was a jam.
