I haven't been on here in a LONG time! But I will post my review of Amerie in LIVE concert in Newark, NJ last week.
Ok yall!
I had the privilege to attend the show in Newark, NJ on Sept. 18 at the NJPAC. I must say in advance if you ever get the chance to catch Amerie live…do it!! It is well worth it. Well, where to begin…I guess from the beginning of Amerie’s set. First of all I must say that she looked AMAZING as usual! She had on a black jagged v-neck form fitting shirt and a leather knew length skirt. This was a totally LIVE performance yall! When I say live, I mean LIVE! She had a full band and everything!! Ok, on to the performance, I know that’s what you all want to know about!! * grin *
The first song she came out and performed was a remake of “Before I Let Go” originally done by Frankie Beverly and Maze. I have to say that she took this song to the next level! The next song she did was one of her own, “Nothin’ Like Loving You.” She put her ALL into this song. There were a few changes and some definite soulful adlibs that were added into the song. It was absolutely beautiful. It will definitely bring a tear to your eye. “I Just Died” was the next song up to bat. All I can say is whoa! If you like the version on the album…the live version is a force to be reckoned with! “I Just Died” led up the newest single “Talkin’ To Me” which was hot!! She was working those heels and again, there was a little twist added so Amerie could show off her vocal skills. Of course last, but certainly not least was “Why Don’t We Fall in Love!” Whoooooo, yall, I can’t even describe the entire show.
This was definitely a great opportunity for Amerie to show off her skills not only as an artist, but as a true vocalist!! She is a young R&B sensation with a mature soulful voice with that hip-hop swing to it. I think after the show last night she gained a lot more fans! I’m going to end it with 2 words…SIMPLY AMAZING!!
Also, her second single "Talkin to Me" should be playing on your stations...if not...CALL THEM! lol Also the video is out for that single, she will also be appearing and premiering the video on 106 & Park on Oct. 1st for BET!
